Fierce Femmes: Nicole Eachus
When looking at Nicole Eachus’s Instagram page, you can’t help but smile. This sweet mama of two (Ellery and Goldie - can it get any cuter?) is spreading joy as a Content Creator through this Shelter-in-Place, and beyond.
Nicole grew up in the outskirts of Tulare, California. It was while attending Fresno State with a focus in Business, that she began a wholesale clothing brand that took off. While juggling school (and falling in love with her now-husband, Brandon), her wholesale clothing line was skyrocketing for this young entrepreneur. At its peak, the brand was in over 300 small boutiques worldwide - not to mention, Nordstrom, Lord & Taylor, Forever 21, Wet Seal, and Pacsun.
As the retail space began to shift, Nicole and husband Brandon received the news that they were expecting their first baby girl, Ellery. While she took on the full-time role of being a mama, Nicole’s passion for entrepreneurship continued to grow, leading her to focus on content creation on Instagram as a new venture.
“It truly brings me joy to take cute pics of my girls, create content for brands, and share my tips of traveling with a young family.”
If you ask Nicole, she’s a “self-proclaimed hotel connoisseur” - but if you ask us, she gives us major #travelenvy as she explores the world with her family.
While today’s climate is shifting her travel plans for the near future, Nicole explains that keeping two under three entertained at home is no easy task. “We are anything but scheduled in our house, and boy, am I paying for it during quarantine,” she explains. “Basically, anything goes to get us through the days. Right now, Ellery is very into coloring, painting, playing ‘kitchen,’ and building houses out of all our couch throw pillows!”
With the Easter holiday coming up, the big Q is how to keep it special for littles while staying safe - and sane. Nicole advises to pay special attention to the details now more than ever. “In our house, we’re really into experiences - and big gathering or not, we’re going to decorate and dress up as if we’re hosting for our entire family,” she says. “A nice table setting with fresh flowers, a fun Easter craft with Ellery that we can save (to always remember our Quarantine Easter of 2020), a special egg hunt for one, and a family-favorite homemade strawberry shortcake that we make together.”

Her go-to words of encouragement for peeps during this crazy time? “If I could tell you four things, it’s to learn new skills, adapt to today, help those who need it, and find the opportunity in times like this.” Well said, Nicole. Well said. ✨
