The Little Camie Story
From our home to yours.
I am Lili. I grew up in Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean, and spent more than ten years in the textile industry before Little Camie began.
As a mother of two, I watched screens creep into every quiet moment. I knew my children needed something better to hold.
In 2019, my husband and I started making fabric quiet books at home. Soft pages full of zips, buttons, laces and little surprises. Toys that ask small hands to do something.
Our daughter Camille was our first tester. She still is. Little Camie is named after her.
Who makes our books
Every book is developed in Mauritius and made by small teams of skilled artisans, most of them women. Each piece is cut and assembled by hand, then sewn in place so it stands up to real play. A single design can take months, from the first sketch to the final safety test.
What judges and parents said
"Absolutely stunning Montessori inspired quiet books by Little Camie. The design, quality and craftmanship is unparalleled. We have seen a few different versions of quiet books over the years, but Little Camie's are one-of-a-kind and perfectly executed."
Judges, The Organic & Sustainable Baby Awards 2023
"A lovely and engaging book that has had a lot of thought put into it… The quality is great, it's really well made and beautifully designed."
