Skip Hop is a globally recognized brand known for its innovative, functional, and design-forward products aimed at parents, babies, and toddlers. Founded in 2003 by Michael and Ellen Diamant, the brand was inspired by the couple’s struggle to find a diaper bag that combined functionality with style, leading to the creation of their first product. Skip Hop emphasizes smart design, utility, and joy in its wide range of products, which have expanded well beyond diaper bags to include items such as:
- Baby Gear: Including playmats, activity centers, and baby gyms designed to encourage developmental play in a fun and engaging manner.
- Travel Gear: Offering travel cribs, on-the-go changing pads, and travel-friendly bottle bags and stroller organizers.
- Nursery Essentials: Featuring nightlights, bedding, and storage solutions that combine practicality with aesthetic appeal to fit into modern homes.
- Feeding Products: Comprising high chairs, utensil sets, lunch bags, and snack containers designed with both parents’ and kids’ needs in mind, making mealtime easier and more enjoyable.
- Bath Products: Including bath toys, spout covers, and kneeler pads to make bath time safe and fun for children.
- Backpacks and Lunch Bags: Designed for toddlers and young children, featuring playful animal motifs and functional designs to make carrying belongings and lunch an adventure.
Skip Hop is distinguished by its commitment to safety, innovation, and quality. The brand often incorporates feedback from parents into its product development process to ensure that its products meet the real-world needs of families. Additionally, Skip Hop products are known for their durability, smart features, and engaging designs that capture children’s imaginations and make daily routines more enjoyable.
In 2017, Skip Hop was acquired by Carter’s, Inc., a leading brand in children’s apparel in the United States, which allowed Skip Hop to expand its reach and continue growing its product line while maintaining its unique brand identity and commitment to high-quality, innovative products that support families from infancy through toddlerhood.
Skip Hop’s approach to product design — focusing on the “must-haves-made-better” philosophy — has earned it a loyal following among parents and caregivers seeking products that are both practical and playful. Visit Skip Hop
