Our Story
We design furniture that gives children (and their parents) the freedom to grow, explore, and do more on their own. Every piece is made from solid natural timber, finished with non-toxic materials, and built to meet Australian and New Zealand safety standards.
Our Origin
From Australia to the World
myduckling is an Australian brand that has been dedicated to designing quality children’s furniture since 2021.
Founded in Melbourne by passionate parent, our mission is to create beautiful, functional, and safe furniture that supports the growth and independence of children.
Our Philosophy
Inspired by Montessori Principles
Ensuring the safety of your child is our priority. Our furniture is made from solid rubber wood and finished with non-toxic coatings, meeting rigorous safety standards including ASTM, CPSC, and Australian AS/NZS certifications.
We are dedicated to providing a secure environment for little ones, so you can have peace of mind.

Loved by Families
Since our establishment in Melbourne in 2021, myduckling has earned the trust of over 50,000 Australian and New Zealand families.
SAFETY
Tested like a toy, built like furniture
Toys for under-threes must meet a mandatory safety standard here. Children's furniture doesn't. We test ours to the toy standard anyway — including the EN 71-3 migration test, which screens for 19 elements a child could chew or scratch loose.

Real wood, traced back to the forest
Montessori asks that children touch real things, so real wood is our default — mostly rubberwood and beech, pale and straight-grained. Scratch it and there's still wood underneath, not a chipped-off picture of wood. All FSC-certified, so it traces back to a responsibly managed forest.
ADJUSTABLE
Fits at two. Still fits at six.
You'll know the moment: their feet stop reaching the footrest, or they start kneeling up to see the table. Most myduckling pieces adjust before that happens — feet flat and back straight at two, and the same piece still fitting at six.
