Before Your Appointment

We begin by exploring the finishes you love,  from premium stone plaster to glass, bronze or precious metals. Then we book an appointment time that suits you and your baby.

Appointment length: around 40-60 minutes

Casting time: just a few minutes

The Casting Process

Your baby’s hands or feet are gently placed into a soft casting material that is:

• completely safe for babies and children

• quick‑setting

• able to capture every tiny crease and detail

​

Most babies sleep through the process.

For pets, the method is equally gentle and adapted to their comfort.

Home Visits & Travel

Home visits within the M25 are complimentary. For locations outside the M25, reasonable travel expenses apply.

​

We also visit the Bath and Bristol area approximately every six weeks.

​

If you live further afield, a remote casting kit is available at no extra charge — you simply pay for the finish you choose.

​

Remote Casting Kits

For families outside our travel area, we offer remote casting kits with full guidance. Once your impressions are returned, your artwork is created with the same care as an in-person appointment.

​

Delivery & Collection

Your finished piece is carefully packaged in an elegant presentation box.

​

You may:

• collect from the studio by appointment, or

• arrange courier delivery (UK or international) for an additional charge

​

Payment

A £150 deposit is required to secure home-visit appointments and remote casting kits. This amount is fully deductible from your final order.

​

Payment in full, or an agreed split payment, is taken once your order is confirmed.

​

If no order is placed at the time of casting, a £150 casting fee applies to cover time and materials.
