This might result in an unsafe environment for an infant to sleep in. That is why it is critical for parents to understand how...

Two Weeks Spiritual Break
Posted on
For the next two weeks, we will be out of the office. As you might or might not know, HercLéon only has two main employees, me (Wen) and Rachel, and everything else is handled by our many different partners (production, fulfillment, etc.). We like keeping things this small because it allows us to interact one-to-one with almost every single customer we serve, but choosing to be this small has some downsides.
