Tagline

Empowering Families

Include this tagline in my logo.

Describe who/what this design is about

Baby Bear Hugs changes the lives of families and children by providing parenting education and support through home visits and classes. As the old cliché goes: ‘Babies aren’t born with instructions’ and even if they were, the instructions may not meet the individual circumstances of the parents or the children. The program is available to all “soon to be” parents and parents of infants and toddlers. Baby Bear Hugs tailors the visits to the interests and needs of the families to reach their parenting goals. Visits are delivered in the homes of families through paraprofessional visitors, nurses and volunteers. A family might have one or two visits or visits weekly or monthly for up to 3 years. Baby Bear Hugs is a nonprofit organization and services are free for families in 8 counties in Eastern Colorado. Recently Baby Bear Hugs implemented a Healthy Living program to help parents learn about good nutrition and increased exercise. By providing a friendly visitor families can access resources, and learn about their new bundle of joy. Parents most frequently say that they loved the support provided through the visitor, it is the relationship that they value.

Empowering Families was the credo approved by the Board. It was recommended to the Board by the PR committee because empowering means to equip or supply with ability. The staff and community also liked: Building the foundation for (tomorrow’s or today’s) families.

What colors would you like?

We are open to various color combinations but specify no pastel colors. The committee liked dark blue, brown, rasberry, teal.

How many colors do you want in your design?

not sure

Do you have any additional suggestions or ideas?

The organization has been around for 15 years and we have "grown up" therefore need a logo with the bear not wearing a diaper (for example). A teddy bear is given to the family when they enroll in the program. We wouldn't mind the bear being in the logo somewhere. Our focus is on the relationship with the family.

Hi everyone! We had a PR committee meeting today and as you can see we have narrowed down our focus considerably. We want to thank all of the designers who have submitted designs, we appreciated all of them – and your time and attention. We are now turning our focus to bold, simple, memorable, and have a few designers we would still like to work with. We are extending our deadline due to the Thanksgiving Holiday and will meet again on Monday. We will be in touch with individual designers privately. Thanks again!

#64 beautiful concept! Like the crawling baby, but I think we are going more for a teddy bear.

#56 like the font and kind of like the colors! Can you put the heart kite from 55 instead of the kite. And try 56 with the bear in 54 or 43. Also, if you had completely free rein of the colors, what would you choose?

Hi everyone... we love this project, and so appreciate your contributions and creations. We just had a meeting with the PR committee and wanted to let you know that there seems to be more interest in the professional look than the "cartoon" type bear. There is also interest in silhouette characters or abstract outlines of baby's/children and/or bears. We want to stay gender neutral as much as possible with children, and open to various types of families, which is why it is difficult to consider designs with mother/father figures. The committee also liked the inclusion of the credo “Empowering Families”. Thanks! Carry on!

#34 and can you make the child look more like a baby, not necessarily a girl or boy?

#34 can you make the bear a little bigger? Maybe to where it looks like it is kind of touching the ground?

I like #30, is there any way to make the words larger and incorporate the picture from the top into the picture inside the words?

These designs are cute and fun... but I think we are looking for something more modern and maybe someting that indicates caretakers or parents and children along with the bear - maybe more stylized (is that a word?)

Like the bears with no bows. Don't know yet about "Baby Bear Hugs" above or below. We thought we wouldn't want the credo in the logo. Kinda like it but what would it look like without?
