Interview with Tina Rapp

Family nurse, mother, and baby expert

How it all began...

Tina had contacted us regarding demo products.

This led to an intensive exchange, and shortly thereafter, an invitation to the headquarters followed to discuss the products together.

In the following interview, you can learn more about the collaboration and get to know Tina Rapp, family nurse and mom...

If you were 18 again, what would you do differently?

Phew, interesting and difficult question.

But I think, looking back, I would probably start training as a midwife rather than as a nurse.

Originally, I wanted to do this back then as well, but I started my training at 16 and was too young for the midwife training profession, so I did not receive admission.

In addition, I would like to spend a year abroad as an au pair.

Who are you actually?

My name is Tina Rapp, I am 34 years old and live with my family in a small village near Karlsruhe in Baden-Württemberg.

I am a baby expert and family nurse, supporting babies and their families on their various journeys and striving to provide individual help and support together with and for them.

Thanks to my professional background and many subsequent trainings, families can ask me about a wide range of questions concerning their baby.

I practice my profession, which could not be more diverse, with all my heart. One moment I am a breastfeeding consultant, the next a babywearing consultant, and then again the leader of the baby massage course.

What were your first impressions of Sterntaler?

I am still amazed by my visit to Sterntaler today.

I was completely overwhelmed by all the wonderful products and the design of this showroom. You can tell it is the heart of the company. I felt very comfortable during my two-day visit in the beautiful Dorndorf.

The reason I approached Sterntaler in the first place was because I have two children myself and had complete series at home for both of them. For my son, it was the Nelson series, and for my daughter, the Rosalie series. My children and I loved the products, and even during my visit, I would have loved to take all the baby hats with me right away.

How did the collaboration with Sterntaler come about?

"I like to present the products to my families and show them the
special features, especially when the items are of such high quality.


I had contacted Sterntaler regarding demonstration products and
inquired whether it would be possible to receive some.

This eventually led to an intensive exchange
between Sterntaler and me, culminating in an invitation to the headquarters in Dorndorf and the beautiful
showroom. There, we discussed the versatile
products on site and brainstormed ideas together to make the items even
more innovative.

Through my work with families, meaning where the products are actually used, I naturally know what needs improvement or what is fundamentally still missing from the market. I then incorporate these ideas into our joint brainstorming sessions."

  • To put it simply: I swear by Sterntaler products. They not only look beautiful but also have truly helpful and remarkable features, making them perfect for babies!

How did the ideas for the new concept come about?

"The ideas I now have regarding the new Sterntaler sleeping bag concept mostly come when I am in exchange with the mothers.


Often the solutions are very simple and straightforward, and I am glad to be able to implement such
great product innovations together with the Sterntaler brand!"

Thank you very much for your helpful ideas and great tips.

We appreciate you, your innovative ideas, and the collaborative creative work, and we look forward to great new products that we can develop with you in the future!
