Our story

Why we started Parker & Darcy

Before we had Parker and Darcy, choosing baby gear felt completely overwhelming. There were so many choices, and we couldn't find anywhere to compare products side by side. We wished somewhere like this existed, so we've made it.

Safety matters most when it comes to babies and young children. That's why we also bring official GOV.UK recall notices together in one place, so expectant and new parents can easily check for any safety worries. We hope it makes things feel a little calmer.
