Mom Sets Out to Solve Cleaning Problem, Starts a Carriage Trade

Stay-at-home mom, Karen Nadler-Sachs, like so many moms before her, was simply doing her job, when she realized she had a useful solution to an age-old problem.

(PRWEB) May 13, 2005 -- Stay-at-home mom set out to solve problem of feeding messes and inadvertently starts a business.

Self-proclaimed “older mom” Karen Nadler-Sachs, like so many moms before her, was performing a simple childcare task, when she had a revelation. While feeding her toddler in the wee hours of the morning, she saw in slow-motion the jelly slip off her daughter’s fork and onto her lovely chairs. Despite the effort of having strategically placed a towel on the chair, the towel had, for the nth time, shifted. A mess had occurred. More work for mom.

And “Save the Chairs!” has been her rallying cry every since.

In those wee hours of the morning, as Nadler-Sachs pondered such questions as “When will the incessant cleaning end?” and “Why hasn’t anyone solved this problem yet?” she decided right then and there to create a child-friendly chair cover herself.

Unlike conventional bag-like slipcovers, Nadler-Sachs decided that her Situpon™ Chair Cover had to look tailor-made, be adjustable to fit almost any size chair, be absorbent, impermeable, soft to the touch, and best of all -- machine washable. After 6 months and numerous designs and prototypes, she had a functional model, complete with “bib pocket” in the back.

Like so many moms before her, Nadler-Sachs realized she had invented something that could help other moms and caretakers, too. Having filed her patent application, she plans to license the original vinyl-lined terry-cloth version to a juvenile product manufacturer. But even better, she also has plans for a disposable version for children’s parties. Her rallying cry, “Save the Chairs!™” has become the name of her business.
