Indigo Wave: Q&A from Silver Cross

By Abby Kail, Contributor Leave a Comment

“Walking is the best possible exercise. Habituate yourself to walk very far.”— Thomas Jefferson

Q: What was the driving force behind Silver Cross?
A: Silver Cross was founded in 1877 by William Wilson, when he invented the world’s first baby carriage. William developed an innovative spring system and combined this with a reversible hood to create the first-ever modern pram. Since then we’ve become one of the world’s most trusted brands, transporting more than 10 million babies.

Q: What is the meaning behind the name? 
A: The brand name decision was an easy one. William Wilson’s first factory was on Silver Cross Street in Leeds, England hence the name, Silver Cross. The brand has long been associated with royalty, first with King George VI and has been used more recently by Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. The brand is also commonly referred to as the Rolls-Royce of Prams. 

Q: Where is Silver Cross based?
A: Silver Cross was founded and still based in Yorkshire, England, and currently available in more than 70 countries worldwide.

About Abby Kail, Contributor

Abby Kail is a loved wife to one fine gentleman, and momma to eight spirited littles. She has been documenting this beautiful chaos by way of film for the past ten years, doing this thing called motherhood by the grace of God -- nothing more difficult and nothing more rewarding. There are days where she has lollipops in her hair and children sitting fully clothed in the bathtub. Yet, her children don’t see her faults they just see her “taking care of them” and it works. You can find her in the kitchen, or on Instagram @homemaker_haven.

Copyright © 2023 · Babiekins Magazine | A Trendsetting Kids' Fashion Magazine and Online Community for Parents and Children Alike · Since the Southern California birth of Babiekins in 2010, the magazine has grown from into an internationally-recognized print publication with a global circulation and now a thriving online community. We are more than a kids’ fashion magazine. We search everywhere for inspiration, and go beyond trends to bring you fashion, style, decor, design, books, DIY, parties, and playthings. Our readers look to us to keep up with the best and most up-to-date concepts in the children’s market worldwide. We have an eye for quirk. We’re high-fashion, but we value whimsy over tradition. Playful childhood is more important to us than making kids into copycat adults. We believe life is beautiful, life is valuable, and life changes when you see it through the eyes of a child. We seek to transcend skin color, language and zip codes and bring out the real, wild, magical creativity inherent in every child. And behind Babiekins is an optimistic team of mothers-turned-editors, working from home, often with our own little babiekins climbing on, under and around the desks. We want to encourage you, and challenge you to see something different — something special — in yourself and in this world we all share. Welcome to Babiekins!
