    Date, time, city and weight. We work out the moon, sunrise, star sign and birth flower.

    We make their film

    We put it together and check every scene, then email you a private link within 48 hours.

Inside the story

Every film is built from their own details. These are examples.

A signpost with blank arrows, a pocket watch and a calendar, with a little elephant leaning on the post
The place, the minute and the date they arrived
A newborn asleep on a vintage scale, with a name tag on the wrist and the weight on the dial
Their name and weight on the scale
Two parents seen from behind, sitting on a grassy hill at sunset with their newborn, a little bunny beside them
Their family, and the child they will grow into

A gift for new parents, and from grandparents

Send it for a birth, a baby shower or a first birthday. Add a dedication and your name, and it arrives as a private link they can keep, watch and share.

Questions

How is each video made?

Every story is written, art-directed and checked frame by frame by J & L Studio. Our watercolour-style illustrations and animation are created with the help of AI tools.

A real person puts every film together and checks it before it reaches you.

Will the baby look like ours?

The characters are illustrated look-alikes, not portraits. You choose the skin tone and hair closest to your baby from our menu of looks.

Parents are shown from behind, so you pick the hair and skin that match best. Any family works: one parent or two.

How accurate are the moon and sunrise?

We calculate the moon phase, sunrise and sunset from the city and time you give us. They may differ by a few minutes from local records.

Star signs and birth flowers are for keepsake fun.

When will I get it?

Within 48 hours of approving your proof (see below). We email you a private link where you can watch and download your film.

If we miss the 48-hour promise, ask us and we'll refund you in full.
