Babyprints Baby Casts - North London & South Herts

What you can expect from Babyprints Guildford:

Having taken thousands of casts over more than 12 years, and been trained for 2 years before this by an experienced caster, I have the expertise you need to guarantee an excellent casting result, every time. Our exclusive Babyprints frames are handmade in solid wood and of superior quality. There are numerous options for mounts and finish combination

s, so each Babyprint is unique and tailored to be in keeping with your own style and taste. We are an independent business, but we are also part of a long established parent company, so we can maintain a consistency of frames and quality both now and in the future. This workshop has been casting little hands and feet since 2004. Our clients have returned time and again with babies and siblings. We have enjoyed seeing whole families grow over the years and have been kept busy charting their progress. Taking the prints:

The casting is a simple process, and involves gently immersing each hand or foot for about 10 seconds in a lukewarm syrupy material the consistency of thick custard, which sets in 10 - 15 seconds to a rubbery mould from which the hand or foot is easily removed. I use high quality hypoallergenic moulding powder that gives a fine cast and excellent result. The 2d raised print impressions are taken by pressing the hand or foot into soft clay, from which a plaster tile is created and then framed. The casting appointment will take 20 - 30 minutes; this includes time to take the casts and to choose your frame and finish. The frames are handmade to order for each child; the finished framed piece is ready to collect in 4 weeks. Making an appointment:

I have appointments available most mornings during the week, 10am, 11am or midday, or Saturday morning (limited availability) if you are unable to make a weekday.
