About us
Welcome to Cotton Planet, your go-to place for the most adorable baby and children's gifts, toys, and dolls!
Our Story
Cotton Planet was founded out of a love for children, good design, and uniqueness. Anita, the founder, has a strong crafting background passed down through generations. Waking up in her grandparents’ house to the sound of a Singer sewing machine is one of her cherished childhood memories that evokes a sense of safety. Anita's passion for design and aesthetics led her to pursue a diploma in Interior Design.
In 2006, Anita arrived in Ireland with her baby boy to build a life for her family. Cotton Planet was established some years later, initially starting with handmade baby bedding and later expanding into a well-stocked toy and gift shop for babies and small children.
Having raised a young boy herself, Anita witnessed and admired the vast imagination of children. She saw how a simple cotton bud could become a beloved "hamster" and how what may seem like "just a toy" to her was an essential part of her son's life and his constant companion. Today, she aims to provide this same joy to children by offering dolls, teddies, and plushies that are beautifully crafted, high-quality, fun, and special.
Our Products
We appreciate timeless wooden toys, dependable rag dolls, quirky soft toys, and classic teddy bears.
We understand the joy and excitement of welcoming a new little human into this world. We offer a range of personalised baby blankets, comforters and plush toys that are perfect for baby shower gifts, new baby gifts, naming day and christening day gifts, birthdays and all special occasions.
We take great pride in our personalised christening shawls and blankets. We took our time to create amazing, unique, and high-quality designs for you.
All our products are carefully selected to bring joy and happiness to children, and we partner with trusted brands that prioritize quality, environmental sustainability, and ethical practices.
We expect that some of our brand names will be familiar to you, while others will be new. This is a part of our mission too: to introduce you to beautiful European brands that you may not have had the opportunity to purchase in Ireland before.
Every order is handled with attention to detail, from the design process to production and packaging. We are dedicated to creating and supplying products that we love, and we hope you will love them too.
Our Mission
Cotton Planet is a joyful and loving place where you can find meaningful gifts for your children. Our goal is to contribute to creating a safe and happy environment for children. We recognize the impact of childhood on shaping a person's heart and mind. We understand that play is crucial for children's development and understanding of the world. Our dream is for all children to grow up in a loving and secure environment.
We acknowledge that not all children have equal opportunities in life. That's why we are dedicated to helping create brighter futures for less fortunate children. Every month, we donate a percentage of our sales to children's charity. It's the least we can do to make a positive impact.
We actively support local businesses by partnering with them for our business requirements, including stationery, marketing, and packaging materials.
