L'histoire de Stepup Baby
“My eldest, lively at just 18 months, was constantly around my ankles, asking to be lifted up while I was preparing his lunch or washing up.”
At the time I was pregnant with his baby sister and so was keen to find a better way of involving him without the constant need of having to carry him.
I found out about learning towers, inspired by Montessori philosophy, which encourages a child to find joy in self-discovery. However, most of them are too big for smaller kitchens, and don’t provide the safest environment for little ones. They also look more like a toy or huge confined construction than a blended part of the furniture that I’d be happy to have in my home.
I wanted to create something safer and more accessible, that also manages to look good. So here’s my version, Stepup Baby's Toddler Tower®, tried and tested by me, Alexander and now Cara and other parents wanting more shared time at home. We love it, and hope you do too.
I’m Emma Robbins, founder of Stepup Baby® and mother to two young children.
Our Toddler Tower®
At Stepup Baby, our Toddler Tower, also known as a learning tower, was designed in 2019 to help toddlers safely take part in everyday family activities. Thoughtfully designed to be adjustable and fit neatly under most kitchen counters, it encourages independence while fitting seamlessly into real homes.
