Real Mums, Real Triumphs: b.box’s Inspirational Journey to Worldwide Acclaim

b.box, the brainchild of two Aussie mums on a mission, has become an iconic global brand known for its innovative and practical baby accessories. Dannielle Michaels and Monique Filer, the dynamic duo behind b.box, founded the company after a challenging experience changing a wriggly baby on a flight to New Zealand. Their journey from a cardboard mock-up to a global brand is a testament to their commitment to making parenting easier.

b.box Insulated Food Jar with Spork for Toddlers

We have tried it out The reviewing mum said “This flask is really good, keeps the food warm and most importantly my child can easily open it unassisted. Don’t be put off by the price it works and will last so definitely was worth it. The handles are removable so it suits children of all ages. Carry handle allows for independent opening for small hands. We loved the soft bite feeding spoon, easy to manoeuvre and soft on gums. Best of all its microwave, dishwasher and steriliser safe.”
