Peek-a-Boutique was founded by Stacy Weitzman in August 2005. She had always dreamt of opening her own boutique. Her dream came true when she found the perfect location to call her own. Located in the heart of Northbrook, Illinois, she found a quaint space amongst many established local businesses. Like her neighbors, she plans to be around for a very long time.
At Peek-a-Boutique you will find unique apparel and accessories for babies, toddlers and expecting moms. Stacy's vendors sell specifically to high-end boutiques. You will find infant/toddler clothing and accessories, diaper bags, jewelry, maternity gifts and more. Stacy hand-selects each item in her shop. Many of her products come from local artists that you can’t find anywhere else. Custom-made items are available on certain product lines. To add that extra special touch you can embroider your favorite blanket, burp cloth set, and more! Stacy will be sure to have all your gifts "gift-ready" before you leave. She believes presentation is everything!
Stacy's mission is to ensure a unique shopping experience, friendly customer service, upscale products, and a loyal customer following.
"I can't wait for you to come in and experience Peek-a-Boutique. Thank you to everyone who has supported me through the first two years!"
Sincerely, |

Written by my Grandfather, Bentley Weitzman...
As she drove her speedy chariot thru Tallahassee, Orlando, Boston and back to Chicago her DREAM was beginning to form it's own body with ideas, with excitement and with precious hope.
She always loved and admired her beautiful sister, Cari, whose strength and perseverance took her through law school and then to become a successful attorney; but she had her own motivating secret---she was the DREAMER. The private thoughts within herself---at night when falling the ideas began to flow like tears of happiness. The DREAM was hers alone---nobody knew.
And when she entered Lifetime Fitness with her creativity, boundless energy and smiling personality, the DREAM started to expand with exciting ideas. Her special caring of hundreds of young children created thoughts of little treasures, little clothes and cherished gifts for the little guys and gals of the world. But how to start---where to go---who to see?
With only limited knowledge and a sturdy support group the DREAMER began her tenacious search for her thousand friends. The DREAM floated on billowing white clouds and quickly began to spread with creativity, design and expectations straight from her heart and soul. The DREAMER was the catalyst---she was now in command-and thoughts became reality. Find a location--set a budget--start the marketing--create a name Peek a Boo---NO NO NO---Peek-a-Boutique. Assistance came from the fingers, the hands and the brains of family and friends but the DREAMER was always in charge--she had the final say.
The thousand friends were spread from the Atlantic to the Pacific and she knew them all---they just never met. Her dainty hand twisted and turned the power card as she bought and bought and bought. And now her friends began to arrive at the store, in startling numbers, eager to show their colors, their styles and their uniqueness. Each one magically found its place to hang in a respectable and showy manner. They displayed themselves as if they had been there many times before.
When it was time for a friend to leave and say goodbye, the time was one of joy and respect---flowing tissue, a custom box, a monogrammed bag and a scintillating bow that said a merry hello and goodbye at the same time. And on to a new home to be with precious babies. And don't forget Mr. Computer--he registered his "Thanks For The Memory" with a quick click and flashing numbers.
At the end of the day when the doors swing closed, the DREAMER'S friends stay still and silent, but the unsaid goodnights fill the night air and in the morning when the door swings open the DREAMER'S eyes sparkle with inspiration and love as she sees her thousand friends happily living in her gifted hands.
Now as the DREAM develops into sales, financials, customers, problems and great days and slow days, the thousand friends silently watch as the DREAMER becomes the LEADER, the BOSS, the MOTIVATOR that will take Peek-a-Boutique to a successful level.
The DREAMER and the LEADER is not only delightful, pretty and charming----she is my granddaughter Stacy. Grandma and I have loved you from day one and today we share your magnificent DREAM coming true.
Grandpa
