In 1999, at a kitchen table in Somerset, Hippychick was born. It was Julia Minchin’s table and it was her first product - the innovative back-saving Hipseat - that got everything started. As a mother of three, Julia knows only too well about carrying babies and the resulting aching back. The Hipseat solved the problem and it continues to be one of our bestsellers.  Let’s face it - babies aren’t getting any lighter!

This is very much a family business and families are at the heart of everything we do.
