Our Story

We built this for Willow. We're sharing it with your family.

Saturday, the 12th of July 2025 is a date we'll never forget.

Our daughter Willow was 8 months old. Fresh out of the bath, we placed her in the middle of a queen-sized bed while grabbing a nappy. In a split second, she threw herself forward and fell headfirst off the side.

She was okay. We weren't.

That moment changed everything. We started searching for a safer alternative — a floor bed where a fall simply wasn't possible. What we found online was either poorly made, visually uninspiring, or worse, a scam. Tammie actually fell victim to one — a beautifully designed bed advertised on Instagram that turned out to be a widespread fraud targeting parents exactly like us.

So we decided to build it ourselves. Properly.

Nearly 12 months of supplier vetting, rejected prototypes, and late nights later — we had it. The Little Willows Floor Bed. All foam, no wood, no springs, no hard edges. A dual waterproof liner built in as standard, not as an optional extra. A machine-washable Teddy cover. And a 5-year warranty, because we built this to last.

We're Matt and Tammie — a sports science graduate and a mum who believes deeply in the Montessori philosophy of raising children with independence, confidence, and space to grow. Willow is now two, and she climbs in and out of her bed by herself every morning. That independence, that confidence — that's exactly what we built this for.

From our family to yours.
