Our Story

BibbilyBoo is a family run business based in Blackpool, Lancashire. 

Created by mum of two Katie (that's me!), the idea of a waterproof bib came after failing to find a bib on the market that met my needs of keeping a very dribbly baby, dry all day without constant changes. I bought a sewing machine and after several trials and extensive fabric research, the BibbilyBoo waterproof bib was born!

BibbilyBoo are passionate about quality and style, so our bibs come with the promise that they are composed of child friendly materials, free from harmful chemicals and we endeavour to help you dress your baby in style!

If you have to cover up a beautiful outfit - it should be with a beautiful bib!

 

Why Bibbilyboo is different

We provide a solution to the baby dribble dramas that no other bib on the market has offered and are really proud of that! Our bib will block dribble from passing through to clothing and are made to be absorbent enough to last the day for most babies or only a couple of bibs for super dribblers!

Products for children can be both practical and attractive and our bibs are just that! But they are also eco-conscious and efficient, saving you money in the long run by reducing the quantity you need and the amount of washing you do.  Sustainability is important to us, so being able to hand down your bibs to friends or use with your next child is something we expect and see often when looked after.  Made with a bamboo core; they are better for our environment than polyester fleece and more as absorbent!

We are really proud that until 2024 we managed to make all of the bibs here in the UK, in fact I have sewn 64,000 myself as we move in to 2025; alongside the support we now have from our factory overseas.  We tried our best to support a UK factory, but because of the unique design and premium fabrics, we weren't able to find one who could match the same quality for the prices we currently charge.  All of the factories actually quoted us more to make each bib than what we charge you as customers!  So we made the decision to seek overseas help and have never regretted it, thanks to their attention to detail and high standards to match my own and maintain our award winning features.  I hope for those of you who are shopping with us second time round that you still enjoy supporting our small UK business with our unique designs developed here in GB!

 

Katie's Back Story

Both of my children were heavy dribblers, something I came to discover was common but not well catered for in the baby product market.  Grayson, my first child was prone to chest infections due to an immune deficiency and a wet chest from dribbling always concerned me. Penelope dribbled so heavily from 2 months old that she could go through 20 bibs a day, as well as several tops and vests; soaking her chest and creating endless washing which was not only inconvenient but expensive to keep a rotation of bibs handy.  It also wasn't good for the environment as I bought so many bibs and washed and tumble dried them often to keep up. It was in no way eco friendly to keep up with the quantities needed and the washing.

Other things that annoyed me about the bibs I had tried was that most are triangle shaped and would bunch up under the chin, chafing their delicate skin, especially when wet and often causing and aggravating eczema and curl at the pointy end.  Even having a cuddle meant transfer of dribble as the bibs weren’t absorbent enough.

Something had to change and this sparked the idea for my BibbilyBoo bib which I am so excited to be sharing with you in the hope that I can save you from some washing, changing and over packed going out bags!  Or what i like to call, "dribble dramas"!!.
