Jenn Metzger is a community educator, as well as a Child Passenger Safety Technician.

Together, we have been building Safer Babies since 1999. One of our favorite professional milestones so far has been winning "Best of Philly".  A favorite personal milestone has been seeing our 3 children through college, as they were all under 4 when we launched this business! The youngest graduates this year.  The saying "The days are long but the years are short" has never felt more true! 

Our goal is to ease & improve the everyday life of young families by increasing safety & decreasing stress. We welcome the opportunity to earn your trust, and be a support to you & yours :)
