Industries › Baby & Kids

Parents don't impulse buy. They research everything.

Baby and children's products are bought by the most cautious shoppers on Amazon — and sold under the strictest safety rules. Winning here means reaching parents long before the moment of purchase, then being the obvious, trusted choice when they're ready.

What We Do

Reach parents early. Convert them later.

Most baby brands over-invest in the last click and wonder why growth stalls. The decision was made weeks earlier — during the research, the registry, the recommendation. We build for the whole journey.

Tiered Portfolio Strategy

Not every ASIN deserves equal investment. We split the catalog into Tier 1 hero products that earn full-funnel support and Tier 2 supporting products that stay efficient at the bottom of the funnel.

Prime Video & Streaming TV

Reach parents on the biggest screen in the house, before they ever open a search bar. Prime Video and DSP online video put one baby brand in front of 735,000 unique customers.

Amazon DSP & Retargeting

Display and online video to build consideration, then retargeting to bring researchers back when they're ready. Parents compare for weeks — DSP keeps you in the set the whole time.

Sponsored Ads That Close

Sponsored Products and Sponsored Brands Video tuned for the moment of decision — where safety credentials, age suitability, and reviews decide who gets added to the cart.

Peak Event & Gifting Moments

Prime Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday planned as one connected calendar — alongside the registry and gifting moments that drive so much of this category's volume.

Safety Compliance & Listing Health

Children's products need third-party testing and a Children's Product Certificate, and Amazon enforces it strictly. We keep documentation current so a compliance takedown never becomes a revenue event.

Client Wins

Helping baby brands get found earlier.

Real numbers from a real Baby & Children engagement — not vanity metrics, and not borrowed from another category.

Featured Case Study

How a baby brand doubled ad revenue by moving up the funnel.

The advertising was working — but almost all of it sat at the bottom of the funnel, chasing shoppers who had already decided. We split the portfolio into Tier 1 and Tier 2 products so investment followed priority, then built awareness with Prime Video and DSP online video, consideration with Sponsored Brands Video and display, and conversion with Sponsored Products and retargeting — timed around Prime Day, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday.

The Playing Field

What you're actually up against.

A growing market, a cautious shopper, and a compliance regime with teeth. These are category figures, not our own results.

~$13.5B

US online baby product sales

The US online baby products market is worth roughly $13.5 billion as of 2025 — and Amazon holds the largest share of it. For most baby brands, Amazon isn't one channel among many; it's the category's centre of gravity.

Required

third-party testing on children's products

Products intended for children 12 and under that fall under a safety rule must be third-party tested and covered by a Children's Product Certificate. Amazon enforces this strictly — missing paperwork takes listings down, regardless of how well they're selling.

3.2%

annual growth rate of the US market

US online baby product revenue has compounded at just 3.2% a year to reach its current size. This is not a rising tide that lifts everyone — growth at any real pace has to come from taking share off a competitor.

Under the Hood

How the program was built.

Two structural decisions did most of the work in the engagement above — deciding which products deserved investment, and buying the whole journey instead of just the last click.

Under the Hood

Tiered portfolio

Inside a large parent-company catalog, spend was spread without clear priority. We split the range into two tiers so the products that could actually carry growth received the investment to do it.

Tier 1 · priority products
Full funnel — awareness, consideration and conversion
Tier 2 · supporting products
Conversion-focused — kept efficient, not starved

The full funnel

Advertising had been concentrated on conversion tactics — capturing parents who had already chosen. Adding upper and mid-funnel media meant reaching them during the weeks of research that decide the purchase.

Category Insights

What actually moves the needle in Baby & Children.

A mix of what we've seen in our own engagements and what the category data says. Where a number comes from outside our client work, we've cited it.

01

The last click gets the credit. The upper funnel earns it.

The brand above was already converting well — growth came from adding awareness and consideration media above it. Ad revenue doubled and total revenue rose 50% YoY once the whole journey was being bought, not just the end of it.

02

Streaming reaches parents that search never will

Prime Video put the brand in front of 735,000 unique customers — an audience that isn't typing product keywords yet. In a category where the decision forms weeks before the purchase, that's where the decision gets shaped.

03

Not every ASIN deserves the same investment

Tiering the catalog into priority and supporting products meant budget stopped being spread evenly across everything. Tier 1 earned full-funnel support; Tier 2 stayed efficient at the bottom. Prioritisation is a growth lever, not just housekeeping.

04

Compliance is a growth risk, not just a legal one

Children's products under a safety rule need third-party testing and a Children's Product Certificate, and Amazon enforces it hard. A missing document can pull a best-seller offline overnight — no amount of media spend recovers that week.
