Precious Memories – Luxury 3D Baby Hand & Foot Castings in Dorset
Award‑Winning, Studio‑Based Lifecasts in Poole – Trusted by Families for Over 20 Years
If you’re looking for beautifully detailed, handcrafted 3D baby hand and foot castings in Dorset, welcome — you’ve found the specialist families trust.
At Precious Memories in Poole, I create exquisite keepsakes that capture every tiny crease, curl and feature of your baby’s hands and feet. These are not rushed impressions or quick pop‑up castings. Instead, they are timeless pieces of art, created with patience, precision and over two decades of hands‑on experience.
Families across Poole, Bournemouth, Christchurch, Dorchester and beyond choose Precious Memories for one simple reason: because the quality, care and craftsmanship are clear the moment they see the finished piece.
Recognised with the TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice Award for two consecutive years, my studio has become one of Dorset’s most trusted places for newborn keepsakes.
Why Families Choose Precious Memories
A Calm, Private, Studio Experience
Your session takes place in my dedicated Poole studio — a peaceful, hygienic, baby‑friendly environment designed specifically for newborns. There are no noisy shops, no queues and no rushed appointments. Instead, you enjoy a calm, personal experience where your baby’s comfort comes first.
Unmatched Detail & Precision
Using hospital‑grade, baby‑safe materials and a refined technique developed over 20 years, I capture every tiny wrinkle, fold and fingernail with exceptional clarity. As a result, families often tell me they didn’t realise casts could look this detailed.
Award‑Winning Craftsmanship
My work has been recognised for excellence, and families consistently say they can instantly see the difference in quality compared to other options.
A Gentle, Baby‑Led Approach
As a mum myself, I understand how precious — and fleeting — these early days are. Because of this, I take the time to work patiently and safely with your baby, ensuring a relaxed, nurturing experience from start to finish.
Beautifully Personalised to Your Home
Choose from five premium frame styles, seven colour finishes and a custom engraved plaque with your baby’s name and special dates. In addition, every keepsake is designed to suit your home and reflect your family’s style.

What Local Families Say
“The level of detail is extraordinary — every tiny crease and wrinkle is captured perfectly. The studio was calm, warm and welcoming, and the whole experience felt so personal and unrushed. Our keepsake is absolutely priceless.” — Sarah, Poole
“From booking to collection, everything was professional, gentle and beautifully handled. The finished piece is stunning and the framing is exceptional. It’s a treasure we’ll cherish for a lifetime.” — Emily, Bournemouth
“We felt completely at ease from the moment we arrived. The session was relaxed and baby‑led, and the casts are so lifelike and delicate. It’s the perfect way to remember those fleeting early days.” — James, Christchurch
“The attention to detail is second to none. You can instantly see the difference in quality — the casts are incredibly true to life. We are over the moon with our keepsake and wouldn’t go anywhere else.” — Rebecca, Poole

Why a Studio Experience Matters
A dedicated studio offers controlled lighting, temperature, hygiene and calm — all essential for newborns. Because of this, families often tell me they feel far more relaxed in a private, peaceful space than in busy shops or mobile setups. This environment ensures the highest level of detail, safety and consistency in your baby’s castings.
What Makes Precious Memories Truly Unique
With so many options available, choosing the right person matters. Your baby deserves a calm, safe, personal experience — not a rushed, production‑line appointment.
At Precious Memories, you receive:
A private, peaceful studio session
One‑to‑one attention
A relaxed, baby‑led approach
Over 20 years of specialist experience
Award‑winning craftsmanship
A keepsake created with genuine care
As a mum of two daughters — and a proud Cockapoo owner — I know how quickly time passes. For this reason, every casting I create is made with the same love, patience and attention I’d want for my own family.
This isn’t just a service. It’s a heartfelt promise to help you capture your baby’s earliest days — beautifully and forever.

About Me
I’m a local mum of two wonderful daughters and the proud owner of Pickle, a playful cockapoo who often keeps me company in the studio. Before starting Precious Memories, I was a primary school teacher, so I understand how to be patient, gentle, and reassuring with little ones — skills that make the casting process smooth and comfortable for babies and toddlers alike.
My husband and I have been together since 1991 and married since 2001, raising our family here in Dorset. Being part of this community means a lot to me, and I love supporting local families by helping you create keepsakes that will be treasured for generations.
