ABOUT

Float Baby was founded in 2013 by Kristi Ison. Kristi is a married mother of two and a baby expert. She is a Certified Instructor of Infant Massage and lives in Houston, Texas, with her husband and their two children. As an experienced mom, she knows just how overwhelming it is for a mommy struggling with her newborn’s sleep schedule, eating habits, and fussiness.

After an appearance on Shark Tank in 2016, Float Baby received overwhelming interest from parents seeking guidance on and relief from all things Newborn.  She was inspired to develop and patent her own floatation device (The Hoverfish®), and create an organic skin care line for baby’s most common issues.

Kristi worked in the medical device industry for more than 18 years, specializing in unique technology and start up companies. Kristi’s goal is to provide babies and their families with the many benefits that Float Baby can offer.

After overwhelming party and event requests from clients, it was clear to Ison that she needed to launch her most ambitious project yet. Party Baby got its start in the Float Baby space. With the demand for events being so high, Kristi found the perfect space, across from West U Elementary, a stone’s throw from Tiny’s No. 5 and tucked behind Little Matt’s. She began hosting a myriad of kids parties in December 2023. With over 250 parties completed, she has learned what works and what doesn’t. Most recently, she hosted a mommy & me Galentine’s event hosted by KHOU’s Chita Craft. It’s clear that Kristi knows how to throw one heck of an event, with many more service offerings upcoming, so make sure you jump on this and book now at Party Baby.
