Welcome! Today I’m here with a Mother/daughter Broad Duo - Erin and Lyla of Lyla Tov Monsters. The company started when a 3 year old Lyla wanted to bring her drawing of a monster to life and give to her Father as a present. Years later, Lyla Tov Monsters help children sleep better at night, and the company just keeps growing.
