About Us

We are kidstravel2.com

Where it all began…

Founded in 2006, KidsTravel2 was created by entrepreneur and mum of 2, Julia. The business was set up as Julia wanted to be a flexible working mum. She found there was no dedicated specialist kids’ luggage retailer where mums and dads could go to get all the essentials for trips with their youngsters. In 2013 Julia’s kids left for school and she decided to go back to full time work. The business was passed on to mum of 3 Judith Groves. Judith and husband Mark have lived and travelled all over the world and therefore had ample experience for parents travelling with their kids.

How we’ve grown…

Under Judith and Marks management, KidsTravel2 has grown to become the UK’s largest independent retailer of children’s luggage & travel accessories. Judith gained a fantastic status for the Kids Travel 2 Blog.  Under her provision our blog was named one of the “Top 10 family travel blogs” in the UK, its packed full of great ideas and tips for travelling with kids: see for yourself!

A new beginning

In 2015, KidsTravel2 was passed on once more to new owners Dips and Parisha who are excited to continue the great work of Julia, Judith & Mark. Dips, having managed bags for a number of global brands, and Parisha having extensive e-commerce experience together have created a winning team.

In July 2015 we launched our brand new, fully responsive web, mobile and tablet website, making it easier and less stressful than ever to buy all your kids’ travel essentials from a trusted retailer with years of experience.
