Baby K’tan co-founders Isaac and Aviva Wernick’s youngest son, Eitan Lev, was born in 2003 with a rare and serious heart defect known as TAPVR (Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return). Eitan underwent a successful open-heart surgery at Miami Children’s Hospital when he was only four weeks old. Baby K’tan is happy to give back to those organizations that are dear to our hearts.

Donations are made to organizations such as the National Down Syndrome Society and the Broward Gold Coast Down syndrome Organization which works towards enhancing the lives of individuals with Down syndrome by helping them reach their full potential by providing family support, education and social activities,

Baby K’tan co-founders Michal and Brian Chesal’s oldest son, Coby Joshua, was born with Down syndrome in December of 1999. Coby’s birth and disability presented the need for Michal & Brian to create an environment for him that would facilitate his development and provide the extra stimulation he needed for optimal growth.

Michal also volunteers in her local special needs community and serves as an active board member on numerous children’s advocacy organizations.
