The digital baby book we’re loving

In this episode of The Ribbon Box Podcast, Founder Eloise sits down with Katie Grosse and Talia Pollock, co-founders of Little Love Books.

Created by two mums who experienced first-hand how quickly the early years can pass by, Little Love Books is a digital baby book designed for modern families. Through a simple app, parents can save photos, stories, milestones and everyday memories as they happen, before transforming them into beautiful printed keepsakes that can be enjoyed for years to come.

Together, they explore the “memory gap” in early parenthood — that feeling that so much happens in those first few years, yet so much of it becomes surprisingly difficult to remember later.

They discuss why traditional baby books can sometimes feel overwhelming, how they designed a more manageable and inclusive way to document family life, and why it’s often the smallest, most ordinary moments that become the most meaningful memories of all.

If you’ve ever wondered whether a digital baby book could make memory keeping easier, this episode explores how technology can help parents capture family memories without the pressure of documenting every milestone perfectly.
