Who We Are

AnnabelBlanche is your pre and post natal best friend. We aim to give advice, support and well informed information from the best pram for your lifestyle or situation (twins? living on the 5th floor?) to the best winding positions and the nappy brands that don't suffice.

Babies are expensive little bundles, we want to help you to buy the right product first time round.

We want to stop new parents from wondering where to get practical advice and show them.

BecoThings Step It Up.

The lovely environmentally friendly people at BecoThings (inventors of the BecoPotty) have stepped it up and now offer to the eco aware and practical parent alike the sturdy and functional BecoStep.

Made from plant fibres (as all their products are) these fantastic little bathroom, kitchen and where ever you want to use them aids are ALSO sustainable to produce and will biodegrade when you are finished with them!


In addition to being eco friendly BecoThings consider your child's safety their number one priority and the step therefore has a non slip rubber bottom- is relatively heavy (compared to some others on the market) to ensure stability and has a grippy top surface so your little one can't slip off. On our test run we found it far more stable than most other competitors and the grip both on the top and bottom made our petit tester feel safe.


The other great thing about the BecoStep is that it's life needn't end with your little one's growth. Once you no longer need it as a step you can put it in the garden as a planter and watch it grow into its second life- a really great way to teach your children the importance of not buying another product that gets sent to the landfill!



Downside: the plant fibre is not shatterproof by its nature so if your child tries really hard (hurls it at a wall for example) he might be able to crack it. The flip side to this being that you would get your becoplanter more quickly!
