Bee's Knees!

First, lets introduce the creator and owner of Bee's Knees; Tammany. 

"I am a mother of 2 boys and started Bee's Knees about 8 years ago when my first son Jackson started crawling.  Shortly after, we found out jack was born profoundly deaf - needless to say the business was put on hold for some time while we adjusted to the news and went through his cochlear implant surgery.  However I eventually went back to Bee's Knees as I hoped that one day we could use the business as a platform to educate people about the importance of early detection of infant hearing loss and the success of cochlear implants.  We have done quite a bit of PR on the subject: The Mom Show, Gil Deacon and in print and also raised funds for The Learning to Listen Foundation.  Jack is now 8; speaks perfectly normal, plays piano and even narrated the school french play!

As mentioned our pants have received some great press and celebrity endorsements and things are starting to finally fall into place now that I have the support of Kushies.  Courteney Cox loved Bee's Knees as they were carrying their daughter everywhere because their hardwood was too hard on her knees.  Courteney had her sister/assistant contact me and she even gave us an endorsement.  Jill Whelan (formerly Vicki on the Love Boat) saw BK on The Today Show and went on her radio show to ask listeners to call in if they knew where to find them.  Bebe Buell discovered BK and loved them - she ordered multiple pairs from us for gifts and then finally disclosed she was Liv Tyler's mom - of course we sent some free pairs to Liv for Milo! Lastly, Goldie purchased 6 pairs for Kate and Ryder in Muskoka and he was later seen wearing them in the Baby B'jorn.

Currently, we are designing new pants made of brushed microfiber, lined with cotton jersey and in sporty styles with beautiful colors and an updated modern look.  I am really excited about our future with Kushies."

 Bee's Knees are also recommended by pediatric therapists at YALE PEDIATRIC hospital.  Most recently, Bee's Knees licensed with Kushies and we are producing some sporty, bright and fun styles for 2011! 
The "buzz" about Bee's Knees is catching on as just this morning they were discussed on Canada's #1 national news radio show.

"Beesknees was such a lifesaver for our Angelina Claudinette. I loved the comfort and safety I was able to provide my child."


~Marie Claudinette Jean, Fashion designer, wife to musician Wyclef Jean, mother.



"These crawling pants are the best invention since the wheel! We have all hardwood floors and without the Bees knees pants my son's little knees would be permanently bruised. We love how cute the colors and styles are, and they wash really well. Thanks so much for all of the pain free weeks of crawling and 'cruising'! "

~Jill Whelan, Actress - The Love Boat/Singer, Radio Talk Show Host
