The story of SAGE

Where do I begin?! Just kidding…

SAGE Babes + Tots is a must-shop online boutique catering exclusively to the cutest little ones! Our mission is straightforward, to furnish caregiver with essentials that keep them smiling as they navigate their way through the shits and giggles of having a baby + raising toddlers.

SAGE is over a decade in the making, and of course, it has morphed a million times over the years in my mind. I’m Ang, the founder + proud owner of SAGE Baby LLC. The evolution of SAGE is a long story, so I’ll skip to the fun part - when I actually became a parent, in 2021! Crazy how that happened, right?! Becoming a mom gave me authentic insight on what parents may need for their little ones! And, after experiencing that first year of parenthood, the peaks and valleys, I knew it was time to bring SAGE to life, finally. But then, surprise – we were blessed with a second child; now, she came into the world fearlessly at 28 weeks + 2 days old, and this little girl has taken us on a new adventure through preemie parenthood.  Thankfully, we are all home, healthy, and one sincerely happy family! Our two babies served as the extra motivation needed to actually do this.

Officially, SAGE arrived in 2024, and I am so excited, exhausted, overwhelmed, and optimistic. Truly a proud mama, if you will. In 2025, SAGE "grew up" and rebranded to SAGE Babes + Tots, and I am so thrilled to be now offering expanded sizing, additional accessories, toys and more books in the nook for big kids!

SAGE isn’t just a name; it’s an acronym, perfectly-fitting for the highs and lows of the inaugural year of parenthood - shits and giggles, etc. Those first 12 months of bringing a baby home are one wild ride! It’s full of miracles, precious memories, and plenty to marvel over. It’s packed with the most precious kisses, the cutest coos, and the sweetest giggles that soon turn into belly laughs. But, to keep it real, there are also long, late, lingering nights, moments of mass confusion, meltdowns, and tears, new fears, and…those diapers, those stinky, sticky, shocking diapers - that some days seem endless.

But, let’s focus on the positive! Let’s keep it cute, let’s keep it cozy - and most importantly, let’s keep it fun!

SAGE is here for the parents who want to keep their babies looking good, but not mess with buttons during a blowout. We’re here for parents who want snacks handy for hungry toddlers, without a mess following their mini, impromptu meals. We’re here for parents trying to keep their babies busy, but not interested in any more cheap, flashy noisemakers . SAGE is here for all of this + so much more.

Whether you are the parent or a thoughtful gift-giver, we know you’re going to find adorable necessities at SAGE! I do not pretend to be an expert at motherhood (thankfully, I learn new things every day) but, I take immense pride in this curation of cuteness. And, I hope that you enjoy it too.
