Children’s Sunscreen Line Is ‘Deeply Personal’ For UK Father 

Headquarters: Boston, MA
Established: 2025
Hero Product: Toddle SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen with Inuline Prebiotic
From a toddler’s first waddle, suncare entrepreneur Deri Green wants to ensure children have the necessary protection and moisturization to keep their delicate, developing skin thriving. 

Toddle, a science-backed children’s skincare brand entered the US market. Founded by Green, a UK native, in 2025, the father is on a mission to educate the youth – toddler to tween – about proper SPF use, and instill healthy habits in youngsters about the dangers of SPF overexposure. Per the Melanoma Research Alliance, research shows that one blistering sunburn during childhood or adolescence nearly doubles a person’s lifetime risk of developing melanoma later in life. Consequently, Green says it’s crucial to keep children’s developing skin healthy by preventing sunburns. 

Toddle touts next-generation skincare products with short- and long-term benefits for children’s delicate skin. Manufactured in Florida with headquarters in Boston, the dermatologist- and pediatrician-backed vegan formulations combine clean, trusted ingredients, including prebiotics and probiotics, and a deep understanding of the microbiome to support a child’s natural skin barrier. 

“We’re beyond excited to bring Toddle to families across the country,” said Deri Green, owner of Toddle. “As a parent of two, Toddle is deeply personal to me. I wanted to build a brand that embodies excellence, safety and care – one that I would feel confident using with my own family. That’s why our new products are crafted to be gentle and natural. We want to give parents confidence and peace of mind when it comes to caring for their children’s skin.”

Prebiotics and probiotics are reportedly gaining recognition as a safe and effective treatment in pediatric dermatology. Studies prove skincare products with these actives help boost and balance a person’s microbiome for healthier skin and reduce skin conditions such as eczema, acne and dry skin, per the brand. Incorporating probiotics into skincare routines has also been shown to help alleviate inflammation and irritation, making them particularly beneficial for children with sensitive or reactive skin.

Two-SKU Debut 

Toddle debuts with two SKUs: Toddle SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen with Inuline Prebiotic for ages six months and up, and companion product Toddle Soothing Moisturizing Lotion for ages three months and up.
