At Storkcraft®, we have the privilege of walking alongside families during one of life’s most profound journeys: welcoming a child into the world. Crafted with love since 1945, we know that a crib is never just a crib — it’s the quiet centerpiece of countless lullabies, late-night check-ins, and early-morning smiles. Our vision is to grow with your family from the nursery stage throughout all of childhood. This Mother's Day, we pause to reflect on what motherhood truly means—and to honor every mother who creates a world of love for her child.

We had the privilege of speaking with five amazing mothers who shared their personal journeys and the deep meaning motherhood holds in their lives.

We asked each interviewee the following question: “What does motherhood mean to you?”:

“The biggest gift I could ever receive. Just waking up and seeing his smile, his laugh, his joyful energy, it's the happiest I've ever been. And he teaches me more than I can ever teach him.”
— Demi Rubio

“It's feeling overwhelmed with love and feeling overwhelmed equally with frustration sometimes in the same breath. And I would say the  love overall is just so unconditional.”
— Cindy Jacobs

“Being a mother means everything to me. I wish I had a less cliche answer, but she is truly my whole world — and nothing prepares you for this kind of love.”
— Yael Segal

“Motherhood means everything to me. I am so grateful to be her mother. I'm so grateful to have her. She means the world to me.”
— Devon Owen

“I really didn't know what motherhood was going to mean before I had children. I think motherhood, of course, is about creating a relationship with your child and having those moments, but it's also about discovering yourself a little bit and rediscovering who you are.”
— Harriet Guadagnuolo

“Motherhood to me is the ultimate patience and unconditional love.”
—Samantha Whiffin
