What Happened to Toddle After Dragons’ Den?
Toddle appeared on Dragons’ Den in 2022, Series 19 Episode 9. The business was a vegan gentle skincare for children. They secured investment from Deborah Meaden and Steven Bartlett on the show. The business is still active today.
The Pitch
Hannah Saunders walked into the Den in 2022 with a vegan gentle skincare for children. They were asking for £60,000 in exchange for 13% of the business.
The pitch landed well enough in the Den that at least one Dragon decided to back it.
The Deal
A deal was struck on the show. Deborah Meaden and Steven Bartlett offered £60,000 for 13% (10% if this year's targets are hit), and Hannah Saunders accepted.
It’s worth noting that Dragons’ Den deals agreed on camera often go through further negotiation off-screen. Some complete as shown; others are renegotiated or never finalise at all. The company’s subsequent trading history is the clearest indicator of what actually happened.
What Happened After the Show
Toddle is one of those Den stories that actually lasted. Having appeared on the show in 2022, the business has now been trading for over a decade — an outcome that puts it ahead of the vast majority of startup ventures, let alone television pitches.
Is Toddle Still Available?
Yes. Toddle Born Wild Limited appears to still be trading. Companies House records confirm the business is currently active.
