Paige Goldberg Tolmach & Soleil Moon Frye

Moms and co-owners of The Little Seed

Becoming a new mom is tough enough. Weeding through the endless products for your children can be daunting. Not to mention finding ones that you actually want near them. Enter Paige Goldberg Tolmach and Soleil Moon Frye. After having their own babies, they searched the globe finding eco-friendly and organic skincare, toys and clothing that they would actually want to use. Then, they made them easily available for the rest of us.

Opening The Little Seed on the West Coast, they managed to create a safe haven and a one-stop shop for parents looking to make the same smart choices that they were. And, as if that weren’t enough, they recently partnered with Target to create an organic The Little Seed collection just for them. Making their vibrant and fashionable line accessible to families everywhere. We caught up with Paige and Soleil (who she admitted, is a little obsessed with the hooded towel – so are we!) between being moms to Jackson, 3 and Poet, 4 & Jagger 2 (respectively), running The Little Seed and the sheer excitement of their partnership with Target to find out just what makes them tick.

We sized up Paige and Soleil in our SIZED UP interview:

What did you want to be when you grew up?
Paige: Mary Tyler Moore.
Soleil: I wanted to be an astronaut, a performer and an artist. I always loved doing a bit of everything!

What are your favorite kids’ shops/brands aside from The Little Seed?
Paige: Organic PJ’s from Hannah Anderson, Target, Crewcuts.
Soleil: I love Target and I have to say, my kids do live in The Little Seed. Once in a while I will get a tiny piece of couture for the girls. I am obsessed with Marc Jacobs for me so I splurged on a Little Marc Jacobs birthday dress.

What do you wish you had more time for?
Paige: Traveling back to my hometown, Charleston, S.C.
Soleil: I don’t even know what time is anymore!

When your children grow up, what do you hope they remember?
Paige: All of the loving and squeezing that his daddy and I give him. We kiss him and tell him that we love him a million times a day!
Soleil: I’d love for them to feel like I inspired them to follow their dreams and that I support them in making their dreams come true. And to be great people, to be kind, loving and to care for others.

What is your key to balancing a successful career and being a successful parent?
Paige: Realizing which one is the priority and accepting that your best is good enough for both.
Soleil: I think realizing that we are all human, nothing will always be perfect. That it is ok to be a messy parent!

What is your favorite thing to do alone?
Paige: Sit in front of the TV eating chocolate ice cream and watch a chick flick. Something I never get to do!
Soleil: To be creative. I love designing. Oh, and I love to read, when I can actually spend time reading a book.

Your favorite thing to do with your family?
Paige: Roadtrip to our home in Sonoma.
Soleil: Spending time together watching them put on performances. Watching them sing, dance and put on shows.

3 items you cannot live without…
Paige: My beautiful family, my wedding band and my 20 year old Filofax (can you believe that I use that dinosaur???)
Soleil: My family, my sense of humor to be able to laugh at anything, and I guess my iPhone: I have a love/hate relationship with social media!

The Little Seed for Target is available online through October.
