Everything you want to know about LeoBabys, our products, and your purchase.

🧸

Products & Materials

All wooden products in the LeoBabys range are made from CE-certified wood. The paints used are exclusively water-based and free from harmful substances. No materials or ingredients are used that could harm children. All products made from other materials are also produced from certified materials.

All LeoBabys products are tested according to the European toy safety standard EN 71 and bear the CE mark – which is present on most items in the range. This means that every product meets the strict EU requirements for freedom from harmful substances, mechanical stability, and material safety.

Furthermore, our products are tested daily by the founder family's own children – before they even become part of our range.

Please note: Even with tested products, children should never be left unsupervised with climbing frames, swings, or similar movement products.

No – LeoBabys stands for conscious selection over cheap mass-produced goods. Most products are created through artisanal production in small European manufactories and family businesses – without assembly lines and without compromising on craftsmanship. LeoBabys preferably supports women-led businesses.

For economic reasons, individual products cannot be entirely manufactured in Europe. However, for these items, the design and development originate exclusively from Europe or Australia – from independent studios and designers with the same demands for quality, safety, and pedagogy.

Our promise: No product ends up at LeoBabys that we wouldn't give to our own children – regardless of where it was manufactured.

LeoBabys offers a wide range for every developmental stage:

  • Baby swings (small, large, luxury)
  • Climbing products (climbing arch, climbing triangle, climbing cube, climbing frame)
  • Balance boards, learning towers, activity boards
  • Children's beds (Montessori, house beds, bunk beds)
  • Children's room furniture
  • Stapelstein® products
  • Outdoor items
  • Online courses for parents and children

From 0 to 99 – and that's no exaggeration. LeoBabys supports the entire family: from baby swings from birth, to climbing products from 6 months, learning towers from 18 months, and Montessori beds from 2 years, all the way to outdoor and construction toys for school children.

Two special products round out the intergenerational range: the Stapelstein® (officially 1–99 years, loadable up to 180 kg) and the CUBORO marble run (from 3 years, made from FSC-certified Swiss beech wood, manufactured in Switzerland).

Quality & Certifications

Yes – LeoBabys exclusively offers tested and certified children's products. All woods are CE-certified, and the paints used are without exception water-based and free of harmful substances. Each product is also tested by independent testing institutes.

For toys, the European standard EN 71 applies; for children's furniture, specific EU furniture standards apply. The CE mark is present on most items – official proof of EU conformity regarding material safety, mechanical stability, and freedom from harmful substances.

Because genuine quality, fair production, and European craftsmanship come at a price – and pay off in the long run. What you get for it:

  • Sustainable quality that doesn't need to be replaced after one season
  • Harmful substance-free materials – CE-certified and independently tested
  • Handcrafted instead of assembly line – each piece is unique
  • 1-year warranty – confidence in durability
  • Fair conditions for small European businesses, often women-led

LeoBabys products are built to last not just one child, but an entire family. Many customers report that their climbing triangles, learning towers, and Montessori beds are easily passed on to younger siblings – or even the next generation.

For wooden products, we recommend: regularly tightening connections, treating with natural wood oils, and storing away from constant moisture.

LeoBabys provides a one-year warranty on all products. Should anything break within this period, it will be exchanged free of charge – no arguments, no hidden conditions. This warranty is an expression of our confidence in the quality of our manufacturers and materials.

Yes – LeoBabys already supplies numerous institutions. Our products are explicitly designed for daily use in nurseries, kindergartens, daycares, schools, doctor's offices, and other facilities, and are manufactured to be correspondingly robust.

Sustainability & Company

LeoBabys is an Austrian family business based in Vienna, founded by parents who are soon expecting a new addition themselves – and therefore know exactly how to select children's products: critically, lovingly, and without compromise.

Behind every product is a personal decision: Would we give this to our own child? LeoBabys is not a corporation, not an anonymous platform – but a small, fine company with high standards.

Because as expectant parents, we can't help but think about the world our children will grow up in. Sustainability at LeoBabys isn't a marketing term – it's an attitude. We only sell what we can truly stand behind.

Yes – quite consciously and out of conviction. LeoBabys preferably works with micro, small, and medium-sized family businesses in Europe – with a special focus on women-led businesses. Every order is a direct contribution to:

  • European craftsmanship instead of anonymous mass production
  • Fair wages and working conditions in small manufactories
  • Female entrepreneurship – an area we actively want to strengthen
  • Short supply chains – good for the environment, good for quality control
