My name is Lena Scilipoti, and I’m the founder of The Piccolina Shop, a specialty baby and children’s boutique located in Greenwich, CT. Over the past five years, we’ve created a space that offers new parents something that big-box retailers can’t: personalized support, complimentary gear assembly, and consultative baby registry creation, all tailored to meet the unique needs of growing families.
At The Piccolina Shop, we pride ourselves on providing an experience that makes preparing for a new baby seamless and enjoyable. We understand that retail isn’t dead as long as there’s exceptional service and the right products. This is why we’ve been able to steadily grow our business to nearly $2 million in annual sales, despite launching during the height of the pandemic.
Our vision is to replicate our model in other markets like Greenwich, where there’s a demand for high-quality products and personalized service for parents. Businesses of our size often face challenges in securing the investment and funding needed to scale. This is where I believe a partnership with an investor could be transformative, as they would be able to give a larger cash infusion.
I would love the opportunity to present The Piccolina Shop to you and discuss how a larger investment could help us. With you as a partner in our growth, we can bring our unique brand of retail to more communities. I’m confident that with the right support, we can continue proving that retail can thrive when it’s built on great customer service and a curated product selection. We are currently seeking an investment of $500K–$750K, with a structured repayment plan that would be manageable and sustainable over time.
Thank you for considering this opportunity. I look forward to the chance to connect further and explore how you might be able to assist or if you could recommend any relevant connections that could support us.
Side note - As a mom of three and a relentless go-getter, I’m not just asking for a chance—I’m ready to seize it. My dedication runs deep, and failure isn’t in my vocabulary. My passion drives me, and I will not let us down. Take a chance on me, and together we’ll create success.
