When founders, Carl and Tara Darnley, realized their daughter was teething early, they set out to find a teether she could use that didn’t require her to hold. She was only two months old and didn’t have the dexterity to hold a traditional teether, so they wanted something she could put in her mouth that was a cleaner alternative to her hands but still offered relief. After a number of failed retail searches for something that met that need, they decided to make it themselves.
The Yummy Mitt Teething Mitten was the innovative result of their effort and it worked like a charm for their baby girl. It fit securely over her hand, was soft enough to chew and provided the comfort she needed, all without needing to be held. This moment began the journey that would evolve into Darlyng & Co., the brand.
