At LoloPops Baby Gifts, every gift tells a story. It’s not just about adorable baby blankets, cute onesies, or the most thoughtful toys for little ones. It’s about supporting local mums, female artisans, and small businesses. Our brand mantra, "Lovingly made by mums for mums n bubs. Because mums know best," is more than just a tagline—it's the heart of what we do every day. From the way we source our products to the partners we choose to work with, LoloPops is dedicated to lifting women in business, celebrating motherhood, and making a meaningful impact on the lives of families everywhere.
A Women-Owned and Run Business
LoloPops is proudly a women-owned and operated small business. Founded by Lola Bowden, a passionate mother who understands the importance of thoughtful, high-quality gifts for mums and bubs, the brand has grown into a community hub where creativity, love, and entrepreneurship thrive. Lola’s journey started with a simple goal: to create beautiful, handmade baby gifts that mothers would love, and babies would cherish. Along the way, she discovered the power of collaboration and support within the female business community.
At LoloPops, we believe that mums know best. Mums understand what other mums need, and that’s why we partner with more than 40 female-owned businesses to bring you products that are not only practical and stylish but also crafted with love. By working with other female entrepreneurs, we ensure that every item we sell supports the dreams and livelihoods of women who are working hard to provide for their families and build something meaningful.
