How it all started...
You may be wondering to yourself, how did a paediatric RN start an etsy shop creating learning towers for toddlers?
Well, when my twins were around a year old, I wanted to build them their very own learning towers, since I couldn't find them for sale anywhere! Isn't it better to have the pride in making it yourself anyways!? A while later and many problems down the road, I found myself investing in lots of specialty tools to be able to make the design I wanted (the sleek, modern style with a fairly narrow profile - not the clunky ones I found other people making!). After running into a bunch of problems with trying to make this sleek design, and seeing how much my twin daughters ADORED their towers, I decided I wanted to help other busy parents by bringing them access to these sleek life-savers without going through the hassle that I had to! That was in April 2019. The rest is history! We are still a very small shop, but continue to have satisfied customers - and that's what matters most to us!

What ages are they suitable for?
Toddlers start enjoying learning towers around 12-14 months, but it really depends on the child & their developmental stage.
Please use your own judgement to determine if your child is steady enough on their feet.
Our twins started using them at 14 months (when Rachel had finally finished perfecting the model!). They learned how to climb into their towers independently after only two tries of Rachel gently guiding their head under the dowel. The twins have been using them daily ever since! Parents typically tell us they use them well into the fifth year of life.
They are specifically designed to grow with your toddler, by having the removeable dowel that can be present in the early years and removed later for independence!
Disclaimer
Parents need to independently decide if the age and developmental stage of their toddler is suitable for using the learning tower. Towers should always be used with close parent supervision.
Learning towers are not to be used on any uneven surfaces, or put on top of surfaces other than the floor (not for use on top of area rugs). The child is not to be leaning over top of the rails at any time. Parent assistance and close supervision is necessary, especially for entering and exiting the learning towers.
How does the removable dowel work?
Our brand new design of our Classic Two Tiered Tower, has a removable dowel that allows for our towers to better grow with your child. In the younger years, you will likely want to keep the dowel in place most of the time to ensure their safety. As they grow older, you can easily use the hand screw to unscrew and slide the dowel out so they can get in and out easily.
