Abbie Schiller

Abbie Schiller is the Founder and CEO of The Mother Company, a multimedia organization dedicated to promoting social and emotional literacy through engaging, stylish content for young children. The company is best known for its Ruby’s Studio product line, which includes award-winning DVDs, downloads, apps, books, and music—all centered around key social-emotional themes for early learners.

Abbie launched The Mother Company when her daughter was in preschool, driven by a desire to find a children's media figure who could help teach the social and emotional lessons she was navigating at home. This inspiration led to the creation of Ruby—a smart, grounded host often described as a blend of Mister Rogers and Mary Poppins. Today, Ruby’s Studio: The Feelings Show is enjoyed by children around the world.

Abbie oversees the development of new shows and products, while also leading the company’s brand strategy, marketing, and sales efforts. As The Mother Company has grown, so has Abbie’s family—her daughter is now seven, and her son was born the same month Ruby’s Studio launched. She is married to a very patient and supportive husband.
