Is she showing off her new nails, or the pattern matching? We will never know 🤷🏼‍♀️

I just wanted to jump on and say THANK YOU so much for all the beautiful messages on my last post. I feel so incredibly lucky to be a part of this amazing community! ###

We’re moving…. Again

(I’ve been holding off on this post 😔)

As most of you know, I moved my colorful little shop from NSW (south west rocks) to Paradise Point in 2024. It was a move for love, a big one. That didn’t quite work out, so 6 months ago Joe (my son) and I moved back to South West Rocks.

For the last 6 months, the amazing Andrea has managed the store and I’ll be forever grateful for her taking the reins when everything went a little pear shaped in my world.

I am now in the early days of helping out my wonderful Dad whose health is sadly not great. He’s my best mate, and I need to simplify my life in order to be there for him.

So the time has now come to move Curious Joe back to its home in South West Rocks. I need to regroup and reconnect with my little biz and build it up to its next chapter, one that will allow me to be there for Dad, Joe and myself.

I want to thank the gorgeous community of Paradise Point for welcoming us into your beautiful village. We have developed so many lovely friendships with returning customers and have felt truly supported.

Our very last day of trade in Paradise Point will be Sunday the 25th of January. Once everything settles down, a new, even better shop will be opening in South West Rocks.

Head into store and grab what’s left, 30% off. Our hours will remain the same, Wednesday to Sunday 8-2.

Again, the biggest thank you. I really, really appreciate the kindness and support you’ve shown this gorgeous blue cave of treasures.

And as we enter the ninth year of Curious Joe, I want to thank EVERYONE that has been apart of it and continues on the journey with us.

Lots of love,
Sophie ###

Hello lovely Port peeps!

My name is Sophie and I have the colourful kids boutique, Curious Joe. I am based in South West Rocks and while my shop is now on the Gold Coast, I’ve been enjoying pop up shops around the mid north coast. I’m super excited that I will be at Port Central this Saturday!!

A little more about Curious Joe, Curious Joe started as a handmade label in 2018. Almost eight years on, I still design and make colourful kids clothing using artist designed prints that are vibrant and fun. My first shop opened in 2022 in SWR and I begun to curate a beautiful collection of unique brands from small Australian brands and quality global brands.

I’ll be bringing all of this to Port Macquarie this Saturday. I’ll be set up down near Target from 9-5pm. I’ll have free gift wrapping, a kids corner and of course lots of colour!

Look forward to seeing you there!

Thanks for all the support today at Curious Joe mini pop up at Sixty Degrees SWR!! Good news, we’re back tomorrow 6am-2pm. The swimwear was super popular today, as well as the Happy Hopperz (perfect gift for a 1-3 yo!). Also, generating loads of fuss, the amazing floaties pictured here on Reed! They adjust for kids aged 2-5, designed by a Sydney mum and made with high quality neoprene, you know we only like the good stuff!

A massive thank you to the amazing Ann at for sharing your awesome cafe space with me
