Bubbaroo is a beloved Australian baby brand makers of premium baby pouches, wraps, and accessories trusted by parents across Australia and internationally. Their Magento 1 store had reached end-of-life, leaving the business on unsupported, insecure infrastructure. We migrated them to Shopify and built a brand-new theme that finally matched the warmth and quality of the products.
A warm, parent-focused storefront built for mobile - designed to match the quality and care of every Bubbaroo product. Desktop and mobile views of the redesigned store.

Bubbaroo is an Australian baby brand with a genuine following among new parents. They're known for JoJo Baby Pouches, stretchy wraps, and a range of carriers and accessories designed to make babywearing safe, comfortable, and actually enjoyable. They hadn't just built a product range they'd built a community of repeat customers who trusted them.
Their Magento 1 platform had done its job for years. But Magento 1 hit official end-of-life in June 2020. From that point, the store was running on unpatched, unsupported infrastructure processing payment data with no security updates coming. Waiting wasn't an option anymore.
The opportunity was to do this properly: migrate every record cleanly, redesign with intention, and come out the other side with a store that actually matched the warmth and care of the Bubbaroo brand. That's what we built.

Before we wrote a single line of code, we needed to understand exactly what Bubbaroo was and what this kind of migration would actually involve. Four things shaped every decision we made.
Bubbaroo had the brand, the products, and the customers. The platform was the problem. These were the four core issues we were brought in to fix.
The brief was clear: get Bubbaroo off end-of-life infrastructure without losing a single customer record, then build a store that does the brand justice. We've done over 100 migrations since becoming a Shopify Partner in 2017 each phase here was planned to eliminate risk at every step, not just the last one.
The migration and redesign gave Bubbaroo a secure, modern Shopify store that finally represents the brand properly. Here are the four areas that moved the needle most. You can see similar results in our portfolio, including other Magento migrations like Lumination.
