Isse & Lo

About Isse & Lo

Isse & Lo is co-founded by Haitian-American sisters, Regine & Betsy in 2022. Our inclusive concept originated from the struggle of finding a range of culturally relevant books, toys, and tools to raise Regine’s daughter, Isse. When we found none, we made them, authentically. While crafting and enjoying these items for Isse, we realized that others may also treasure and benefit from them. Hence, Isse & Lo was born by fusing the namesake of Isse and her best-fury friend, the family house cat “Lola.” Their enchanting relationship deeply resonates through the unique stories captured in the books, toys, and materials available on this multicultural site. It takes a village to raise kids, and as the Haitian proverb says, sa ou plante, se sa ou rekòlte, (what you plant is what you harvest). We are proud to be part of your village dutifully caring for the harvest of the next generation. We hope these resources inspire hours of creative play, cultural exploration, and lifelong learning.
