HOW WE GOT STARTED In 2005, Rob Daley and Henry Thorne met for lunch. Six hours later, they’d decided to form a company. Rob’s business acumen, Henry’s engineering expertise, and a shared conviction that increasingly inexpensive electronics could add value in static product categories gave them confidence. Not long after, a focus group of four moms gave them insights, ideas, and a name for their company. From that first Digital Spout Cover to the mamaRoo infant seat to the origami stroller and more, 4moms products are innovative, elegant, and helpful to parents everywhere.


OUR MISSION Develop

DRAMATICALLY BETTER juvenile products and build a GREAT COMPANY

DRAMATICALLY BETTER products redefine the most important attribute in their category.

GREAT COMPANIES care about more than just financial success.

OUR VALUES INNOVATION We never let fear of failure limit our creativity, and we’re open to change whenever good ideas present themselves.

PASSION

We’re passionate about what we do and that inspires passion in others.

PEOPLE

We treat people like they are our most important asset, because they are.


WORDS WE LIVE BY 1. Everything matters. 2. Embrace change at all times. 3. Collaborate. 4. Minimize scope. Get it done. Then improve. 5. Communicate. 6. Good enough isn’t. Awesome enough is. 7. Be humble. Work hard. Respect others. 7

I love my people, outdoors, my motorcycle and teaching. I show up late and stay late. I visit people more than places. Mother-earth and Father-time are healing powers I believe in.

I’m passionate about everything I do. Love to read and play tennis. “Good enough isn’t, awesome enough is.”

From upstate NY. I’m a very active person w/ great friends and fam. There’s always something on my calendar to do. Running, traveling, good food/drinks, music, building stuff/modding cars.

Everything Matters — ­ family, friends, work, learning, enjoying life! Make time for all of it!

Tattoos. Chocolate fiend. Dog-obsessed. Wine & craft beer drinker. Bike enthusiast. Travel is my key to happiness; love & patience are the key to life.

“There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person.” - Fred Rogers

There are places I remember all my life, though some have changed. All these places have their moments. With lovers and friends I still can recall. In my life, I’ve loved them all.

I am absolutely obsessed with the following: food, my dogs (two shih-tzus), my husband, pajamas, shopping, Home Alone (1 and 2), #hashtags, being a homebody, my closest friends, and family.

I am a sports fanatic who loves his wife and daughter. Always appreciate what you have, not what you want.

There is nothing I would rather be doing than learning, creating, or solving.

I seek out goals that are seemingly impossible. Willingly testing my limits makes it less stressful when the tests are involuntary.

TEAM PHOTOS In the fall of 2013, an innocuous email went out asking for team photos. This yearbook was a secret project and the intended use of the photos was not disclosed. In typical 4moms fashion, passion and creativity took over and this collection of images was the result. They’re impressive. But that’s how we roll.
