Heritage and History

Ellen Diamant and Michael Diamant founded Skip Hop in New York City in 2003 with the idea that baby gear didn't have to look institutional — that the bags, activity gyms, and accessories that parents carry and use daily could have the design quality and aesthetic appeal of products made for adults.

The Zoo collection — featuring animal character designs on lunch bags, backpacks, and water bottles for toddlers — became the brand's cultural calling card, putting recognizable and beloved animal designs on products that children actually want to carry. The Forma backpack diaper bag line addressed the other side of the market: parents who wanted a diaper bag that doubled as a stylish daily bag.

Designed in New York City

Skip Hop designs all products at its New York City headquarters, where the team develops the activity gyms, diaper bags, feeding accessories, and nursery products that define the brand. American product development means CPSC safety testing and certification are built into every product's design process, not added as an afterthought.

For parents who want thoughtfully designed baby products that work well and look good, Skip Hop provides the New York-designed option with the aesthetic sensibility that distinguishes the brand. The combination of function — the stroller organizer's insulated cup holder, the activity gym's removable and washable mat — with appealing design reflects what happens when experienced designers take baby gear seriously.
