aby and Me has moved to a
new spot at West Bloomfield
Plaza, 6718 Orchard Lake
Road, south of Maple, "just two
baby steps" from its prior location.
Jewish owners Rita Neff and Loretta
Globersen opened the shop more than
30 years ago. They developed a niche
in Oakland County to offer everything
for children in one location. They
thrived and sold the store to a young
Chaldean woman, Shams Jaboro (sec-
ond from left), about five years ago.
"Our new location will specialize
in infant wear and gifts:' said Jewish
employee Shelley Wish Chaness (right).

The store offers a layette depart-
ment; clothing for boys and girls; an
expanded gift department, many items
of can be personalized by an on-site
artist while you wait; and accessories.
Prices range from $10 up. Jaboro's staff
includes Chaness and two other Jewish
women, Joyce Danuloff (left) and
Marilyn Belin (second from right).
"The store is indicative of the
wonderful diversity that can be found
throughout West Bloomfield:' Chaness
said. "We have learned much about
the Chaldean culture, and Shams has
learned much about the Jewish clien-
tele she cares so much about." CI
