WELCOME TO MADDIE + JO CO.
Hi, I’m Haylee! The one woman show behind this business. 💖
I’m a 29 year old mom to two little girls, Josephine and Madeline. We live in small town Wisconsin, where me and my husband both grew up!
I was born with a love for all things art. I grew up making art whenever I had the opportunity. So when they time came to choose a career path, it was a no brainer- I was going to somehow make art. I just wasn’t sure exactly how I was going to make it a career.
I ended up getting a bachelors degree in fine arts and another degree in art education. I had always wanted to open up my own business but was always too scared to make the jump! So, I spent two years teaching elementary and middle school art until I decided to try my hand at entrepreneurship. I wanted to stay home with my girls so I had more drive than ever to take the jump and make it work. And here we are!

MY REASONS WHY
My two girls are the reason I started this shop and my motivation to keep going. I loved teaching, but I felt like I was missing out on too much. But once I resigned and became a SAHM, I knew I needed to still doing something else for financial reasons and more importantly, for my mental health. Having two babies 11 months apart is not for the weak 🙃
It’s been a rollercoaster trying to balance being a small business owner and a mom to these two little girls. But I seriously feel like I hit the jackpot getting to do something I LOVE, help support my family financially, AND stay home with my girls.
So, when I say thank you for being here, I mean it whole heartedly. Your supports means the absolute world to me because it is helping me spend more precious time with my girls. 💗
