Hello 👋🏻 I'm Katie, first-time mum and Baboodle founder!
I set up Baboodle on my maternity leave after finding that I was spending huge amounts of time and money sourcing baby equipment that was either never used, or grown out of within a few weeks.
Buying new was expensive and unsustainable, and buying secondhand was unreliable and riddled with hidden costs (Facebook marketplace + Uber is a lethal combination).
Baboodle is the platform I was looking for.
We launched in 2022 and were blown away by the response. Very quickly it became apparent that the demand for Baboodle outstripped my plans for a maternity leave side hustle, so my brother Dan, came onboard and we got to work. We've now grown to a team of 12, and have helped over 10,000 parents save money and reduce waste.
We're so proud to be building a business is creating truly positive change for consumers and the planet alike. Thank you for coming along for the ride!
