McLaren & Wall

General information

As a new Mother myself, and pregnant with my second child, the challenges of childcare and the dreaded train journey became all too real. One day, heavily pregnant at a train station in London, I was told I couldn’t get home as the trains were cancelled. I panicked as no-one could pick up my daughter in time. That sense of desperation to get to my baby drove my decision to start my own business.

My journey began by completing my training with The Keepsake Association and launched my business. It was a match made in heaven appealing to both my creative and engineering genes – “Thank you Grandad Wall”. Through my training and first year in business as Cheekies Treasures, I developed a passion for 3D casting as the ultimate keepsake.

I decided to specialise and expand my business in this area, servicing the baby, family, celebratory and memorial stages of life. It has become my true love, producing beautiful casts for others to treasure forever.
