Abacus Kids

Buddy + Bear

Buddy and Bear is a family business run by Sarah Weston and her husband Jon. Together, they design sweetly stylish nursery pieces that can be treasured by little ones and grown ups alike.

Having met as design students twelve years ago, they became parents to their baby Samuel in 2014. It was then that they began to dream up the things they’d like to complement their growing family home.

As a mama, Sarah became more aware that kids don’t always need brash colours and loud noises to stimulate them. Sometimes it’s the pussy cat’s whiskers or an unusual texture that captures their gaze. Their style of bold and yet subtle simplicity reflects the mix of sensitivity and playful charm that the sweetness of childhood is all about.

They design all of their products from their home in West London and where possible, work with local suppliers to manufacture them.
