Grace Tindall, The Founder of Scandibørn
Banwood
"Banwood creates contemporary designs with a touch of mid-century charm. Influenced by Scandinavian design, the keywords throughout the creative process are simplicity, minimalism and functionality. Banwood makes the very best Balance Bikes, Pedal Bikes and Trikes for little ones. We adore the vintage and simplistic design of the Trike.
As one of the most stylish trikes on the market, it ticks all the boxes for your toddler's first wheels. With a vintage design, it comes with a detachable push handle to help your little one get started. The grips are made from vegan leather, easy to wipe off and the pedals and seat is made from oak wood with a soft padding for a comfy ride. These trikes are hugely popular and fly off the shelves when they come back in stock at Scandibørn so get in there quick!"
Bbhugme
"The bbhugme pregnancy pillow is designed by Norwegian chiropractors and offers five-point support to the most critical areas from the neck to toes, to the baby bump. This is one of the first brands we stocked at Scandibørn and one that I used when pregnant. It is a gamechanger when it comes to pregnancy pillows. Guaranteed for a better night’s sleep. We also love their smaller nursing pillow which offers shoulder and neck support when breast or bottle-feeding."
