About Us
We’re Katy & Graham and we are the owners of the Cotswold Baby Co. We are super excited to be running such a fantastic business with lovely customers and very much hope to continue Kate and Rachael's fantastic work.
Cotswold Baby Co. was created to provide you, our fellow grownups, with an easy and enjoyable way to choose special, fun clothes and gifts for the little cubs in your life. Our mission, and one we share with all our customers, is to bring fun, happiness and comfort to babies and children through wearable and washable clothing, and carefully selected gifts.
At Cotswold Baby Co. our collection celebrates the much-loved theme of the British countryside, animals and farming, with recognisable characters popping up across the range. Inspired by our adorable mascot, Bertie the Fox Cub, your own little cubs will love the imaginary world of Bertie’s Den. This enchanting wood, nestled between a town and a farm, provides habitats to Bertie, his little acorn side-kick, Woody, and all their friends. Designed to spark your little cub’s imagination and encourage outdoor adventures, Bertie and friends appear on many of our products as well as our nature-themed activity sheets – free to download from Bertie’s Den!
Our Story
Cotswold Baby Co was started in 2017 by best friends Rachael and Kate. They did a fantastic job creating the brand that we know and love and in 2022 the business passed to our stewardship. We are doing everything we can to build on that excellent work and ensure Cotswold Baby Co has many more exciting years ahead of it!
We have always had a love for clothes and fashion, and after having a little cub of own in January 2022, we have become excited by lovely baby gear! Dressing our son, Clark, in little outfits became a daily highlight, although not so much for Clark who hates being changed!
Graham has a textiles background working behind the scenes.
My sister Lucy will be joining me in the day to day running of the business. Lucy has two cubs of her own, Ollie and Zara, and had been looking for a new challenge, so when I mentioned Cotswold Baby Co to her, she was keen to get involved. We are sisters and friends, so we are looking forward to working together.
Our Ethos
We have a very strong connection with nature and the countryside, having grown up in rural locations all of our life. Whether it is walking on the moors, walks through country fields or just fun in the garden, we have always been outside people.
It’s the little moments and the simple things that really fill children with joy. This is why all our clothes, gifts, toys and books celebrate the great outdoors, and all our clothes are made to stand up to tree-climbing, muddy puddles and whatever else they meet on their adventures.
We strongly believe that the plants and creatures that give us so much joy should receive our care and protection in return. We therefore use recycled and recyclable packaging and source as many of our items as possible from sustainable sources. We are always looking for new ways to limit harm and show love to the planet, keeping it safe and beautiful for future little cubs to enjoy.
