The app we wished we had when Esme was born.
Monti Crafts began with a simple goal: bringing together the tools, activities and information that genuinely help parents support their children's development — from birth onwards.
Two first-time parents, one scattered internet, and a daughter named Esme.
As first-time parents, we spent countless hours researching child development, learning through play, milestones and activities — all the ways to support our daughter Esme's growth. There was plenty of information out there, but it was scattered across websites, books, social media and parenting groups.
Finding trustworthy guidance and practical activities that were both engaging and affordable wasn't always easy. So we built the thing we kept wishing existed: one calm, dependable place designed around real families — focused on simplicity, accessibility and practical everyday use.
Our goal is to help children develop confidence, curiosity and essential skills — while creating meaningful moments together as a family.
Everything in one place.
Three parts that work together to support your child from their earliest days.
Learning through play
A growing collection of activities tailored to different ages and stages — a quick five minutes between naps, or a longer, immersive session. Varying levels of complexity and prep, many using everyday household items, so meaningful learning is always accessible.
Milestone tracking
Follow your child's developmental journey with milestones based on credible, trusted sources. Rather than overwhelming you with information, we present milestones in a clear, supportive way — helping you celebrate progress.
Everyday tools
Activity and tummy-time tracking, a weight & height log for home and NHS clinics, and an instant measurement converter for kg, lbs, stone and grams. Small features that save time and remove unnecessary confusion.
Not a corporation. Just two parents and a daughter named Esme.
Monti Crafts isn't a large company or a team of child-development specialists. Every feature has been inspired by our own experiences raising Esme — and the challenges we faced trying to find trustworthy information, meaningful activities and useful tools in one place.
We're continuously improving the app and adding new features based on feedback from families like yours. Our hope is that it helps you spend less time searching for answers and more time enjoying the incredible journey of watching your child grow, learn and thrive.
