Self Care. Done Properly.
Hey, I’m Haley, founder of Gingerly: a handmade personal care company in Youngstown, Ohio.
Here's the Gingerly Story:
Actually, it all started as a joke kind of... In the fall of 2020 my husband and I found out that our family was growing, I used to joke that when the baby came I was going to quit my job (as a FedEx driver) and start a soap business.
Really, I had a desire to simplify the products we use daily and that desire only grew with our growing family. I researched endlessly trying to find a company to put my trust in: A company that uses good, responsibly sourced ingredients (especially no artificial fragrance) with transparency. A company that claims responsibility for their environmental impact and works toward improvement at every opportunity. A company who strives to do all of this while staying accessible to the average consumer, because money shouldn't be a barrier when it comes to better products. Shocker, I couldn't find that company so I became it in April of 2022.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines the word gingerly as: In a careful or cautious manner. Showing great care or caution. I'm here to do just that; for my family, your family, and for the environment in which we’re raisin' em up.
I'm glad you’re here and I hope you’ll stick around and get to know us!
