Behind every Bebemoss toy is a story of dignity, resilience, and care.
When you choose Bebemoss, you are not just buying a toy, you are helping a mother earn an income on her own terms.
Safe work, Fair pay, Flexible hours.
Because when a mother earns, a whole family moves forward.
It means women can work from home while raising their children.
It means income where there were once limited opportunities.
It means stability, confidence, and the ability to plan for the future.
And it means children growing up in safer, more supported environments.
Every piece is handcrafted with care, using safe and sustainable materials, but the true value goes far beyond the toy itself.
We are proud to build a model where:
Women are paid fairly for their work, production respects people and the planet and every order contributes to long-term impact, not short-term gain.
This is what we believe responsible business should look like.
Bebemoss is part of a global movement working toward a fairer economy.
We are proud to be: A member of the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO) and a verified social enterprise
Your support reaches far beyond a single purchase. It helps create:
Dignified work opportunities
Stronger families
More resilient communities
Together, we are shaping a future where business creates real, lasting change.

Hand-crocheted from hug-ready organic cotton yarn, our toys are designed to be easily recognizable for imaginative play (and even easier to clean!). We use sustainably sourced hypoallergenic polyfill stuffing made from recycled bottles. Each toy undergoes rigorous testing and meets safety standards like the EN71 toy safety standard for the European Union.
Our toys are hand-made by a community of over 120 moms in and around Istanbul. Many are impoverished locals, others are refugees from Syria and Afghanistan. Your purchase lets us pay them a fair trade wage that helps lift their families out of poverty.
“I’ve learnt handcrafts, worked with it and earned money. And I’ve supported my daughter to finish her education. If any of my children or my husband need help, I can support them.”
-Samira, Syrian Refugee
We give our artisan moms the flexibility to work when and how it works best for them. Everyone sets their own schedule. We offer job training for women who are new to crocheting. Our cheerful studio has a dedicated play area for anyone who needs help with childcare. Some of our mothers prefer to work at home where they can balance family life with their craftwork.
“When we first came to Turkey, we were alone. We didn’t have relatives or our families….When we work here as a community of women, we support each other. We share ideas. We help each other. We make friendships. We became a family, sisters.”
Rania, Syrian Refugee
