Rapid prototyping in a variety of safe, durable and sustainable materials
Functional prototypes tested for safety, ergonomics and usability
High-quality prototypes for parents, investors and retailers

Launched with John Lewis

Phil and D2M are the best at what they do and I would highly recommend working with them if you are looking for a product design company. From the beginning, Phil's passion and expertise came through when deciding on a partner.

D2M is a great company to work with and one we would recommend for any new product development. One quality we have been impressed with is their minimum viable product approach. Looking forward to working on our next project with them.

We engaged Phil and the D2M team to help us fabricate a prototype for our product on an extremely tight timeline. We would thoroughly recommend them to anyone who needs to take their product from idea to prototype!

D2M were and still are a massive help to me. They are full of knowledge of the industry and helped bring my idea to physical product. They re-designed, refined and have thoroughly tested my idea to create something that is functional, aesthetic and realistic to manufacture.

Genius Alert!!! Phil is one of the best start-up consultants you find out there. In contrast to all other start-up consultants you will encounter, Phil has first-hand experience of what it means to raise start-up funding, build the team and navigate the highs and lows of the start-ups.

Compliance and peace of mind in baby product design

In this market, meeting regulations is essential. From choking hazard assessments to chemical safety, we build compliance into every stage. Our approach to baby product development helps to protect children, reduce risk for your business and ensure a smoother route to market.

Our compliance-first approach includes:

Guidance and support meeting international nursery and juvenile safety standards
Early integration of certification requirements into design and prototyping
Selection of non-toxic, baby-safe materials
Collaboration with accredited test houses and laboratories.

By focusing on compliance from the start, we help you avoid costly delays or recalls, while giving you and your customers lasting confidence in every product.

Research-led innovation for early childhood development

Innovation in baby product development is about solving real challenges — not just adding features. As such, we combine in-depth market research with insights from pediatric experts, psychologists and parents.

Our innovation-led process has delivered:

Feeding products that encourage healthy routines
Toys and accessories that support physical and cognitive development
Research-backed features shaped by expert and parent collaboration
Designs that reflect emerging trends in parenting and childcare
Products that balance practicality with emotional reassurance.

The result is products that truly support children’s growth, improve early childhood experiences, and make life easier for caregivers.

Smarter development with MVP and MLP strategies

Launching a new baby product is a major commitment, which is why we focus on minimising risk while maximising impact. Our Minimum Viable Product (MVP) approach means testing simplified versions early, while Minimum Lovable Product (MLP) ensures the final product goes beyond function to delight parents and children.

Our MVP/MLP-led approach includes:

Building prototypes with only the essential features to validate early ideas
Gathering insights directly from parents and caregivers at every stage
Iterating designs to improve usability, safety and desirability
Streamlining development to reduce costs, timelines and risks.

When you work with us, we’ll help you create a much-loved product that connects, reassures, and thrives in the competitive nursery and childcare market.
