Since the arrival of my beautiful daughter Henrietta Esme in 2006 I have become increasingly frustrated in trying to find ‘traditional’ toys & clothes rather than the run of the mill that the majority of retailers seem to stock nowadays.

I have managed to find a few shops, but travelling on motorways to London, Bath, Cheltenham & The Cotswolds is not always fun (or fair) with a small child in tow! Having received so many compliments on how I dress Henrietta and enquiries as to where I bought her clothes from I realised I wasn’t alone in my quest.

So together with my passion for traditional charm, Henrietta as my inspiration and the idea that children’s shopping could be much easier and far more enjoyable for parents, I decided to launch my own online children’s boutique, and so Esme Rose was born!

Esme Rose offers a beautiful selection of clothes and toys for the special little people in our lives. I have had a wonderful time hand-picking these classic pieces that bring back a taste of nostalgia but with a modern twist.

I hope you enjoy browsing and shopping with Esme Rose.
