Introducing Step Buddy: The Step Stool That Empowers Your Child and Simplifies Your Life

Parenting little ones has become a balancing act. You want them to be safe. You want them to grow. You want them to have fun and enjoy the magic of childhood! But you don’t want those things to overwhelm your life, your house, & your mind! We’ve been there.. So we created Step Buddy, the step stool that solves parental needs and kid needs, at once, to make every day less demanding and more joyful. 

What is Step Buddy?

With Step Buddy’s innovative design, it folds out from your cabinet when you need it, and back flat against it when you don’t. Pull the step stool down from the mounted position, and it locks into place. After the little one’s done, it folds back in, out of the way but always ready for the next adventure.

Step Buddy is a step up: This is way more than a step stool. Step Buddy is a tool that helps your child to become more independent, to take on new challenges, and to do it safely, all while helping you to keep your home tidy. From brushing their teeth to helping you in the kitchen, to grabbing that bedtime story, Step Buddy is there for them every step of the way.

Why Step Buddy is Different

What sets Step Buddy apart from other step stools?

1. It Helps You Prevent Accidents: Safety is our top priority. Step Buddy is designed with a non-slip surface and sturdy construction that ensures it is only used as intended, keeping your child safe. Unlike traditional step stools that can be slippery or unstable, Step Buddy provides a secure platform that reduces the risk of slips and falls, giving you peace of mind.
2. It Can be Used Almost Anywhere in the House: From the bathroom to the kitchen, bedroom, and playroom, Step Buddy adapts to any room and situation. Whether your child needs to reach the bathroom sink, make a snack, or grab a toy from a high shelf, Step Buddy is a versatile tool that fits seamlessly into your daily routines.
3. It Keeps Your House Free from Clutter: One of the challenges many parents face is managing clutter, especially in small spaces. Step Buddy’s compact, foldable design means it stays out of the way when not in use, helping you keep your home tidy and organized. No more tripping over bulky, unsecure furniture—Step Buddy folds neatly against the cabinet or tucks away in a corner, ready to be pulled out when needed.
4. It Helps Your Child Grow with Confidence: Step Buddy is designed to empower your child to complete tasks on their own. By making everyday tasks like washing hands, brushing teeth, and getting dressed more accessible, Step Buddy helps build your child’s confidence with every use. As they grow more capable, they’ll feel proud of their achievements, and you’ll love seeing their independence blossom.
5. It Delivers Lasting Value: Step Buddy isn’t just for toddlers—it’s built to grow with your child, providing years of utility. As your child’s needs evolve, Step Buddy remains a valuable tool that supports their development, from early standing days to more advanced tasks. It’s a lasting investment that continues to deliver value as your child grows.

A Day in the Life with Step Buddy

If you could see a typical day with Step Buddy in your household, perhaps it starts with your child confidently using it to reach the bathroom sink to brush their teeth and wash their hands. Or perhaps during playtime, Step Buddy helps them reach their favorite toys and play. Later, Step Buddy helps your child reach counter height so that they can mix, stir, and set the table, therefore integrating your child in meal prep and turning cooking and baking into a family experience. As the evening approaches and your child gets ready for bedtime, Step Buddy again helps them reach the top shelf to grab a bedtime story.  The applications are endless, and they’ll grow as they grow!
