Why Thousands of Families Trust Forget Me Not Journals
Since 2016, Forget Me Not Journals has been a trusted New Zealand brand dedicated to creating truly thoughtful keepsakes for families. With over 10 years of experience designing meaningful memory books, we've helped thousands of families preserve their most precious moments.
Of all the journals we've created, nothing has been more loved than our range of 15 unique baby journals. Here's why so many families across New Zealand, Australia, and beyond choose Forget Me Not again and again.
1) Complete Flexibility That Fits Real Life
Life with a baby is unpredictable. Our To My Daughter, To My Son, and To My Child journals were built for that reality.
- 140 gold‑foil prompt stickers let you start at any age
- Write as often — or as little — as you like
- Add as many photo pages as you need
- If life gets hectic, simply pick up where you left off later
There's no pressure to write on a schedule, no pre‑printed timeline to force you into weekly or monthly entries. The space is yours. Your story is yours.
This flexible, sticker‑led format and inclusive design is intended to be used at any pace or stage that suits your family.
2) Personalised with Your Baby's Name
After you finally decide on the perfect name, seeing it on a keepsake feels special in a way nothing else does.
We offer hand‑crafted gold monogramming right here in New Zealand and Australia, so you can add initials, a name, or a birth date. It turns a beautiful journal into something completely unique to your child.
3) Inclusive, Thoughtful Prompts for Every Family
Our journals are designed with every kind of family in mind:
- Gender‑neutral prompts and illustrations
- Sensitive and inclusive language
- Meaningful, engaging questions rather than shallow checklists
These prompts help you relive moments, reflect on your child's life, and create a heartfelt record rather than simply filling in boxes.
4) Excellent Value in Quality Craftsmanship
As a New Zealand brand, we're committed to quality that lasts. These journals are crafted to become treasured heirlooms:
- Linen hardcovers with gold‑foil detailing
- Full‑colour, bespoke illustrations
- Durable pages built for constant use and safekeeping
They feel luxurious, look gorgeous on a shelf, and protect your memories for years to come.
5) A Wide Range of Options — With Bundle Savings
With 15 beautiful options, there is something for every family's style and need.
Choose from flexible journalling styles like To My Daughter, To My Son, or gender‑neutral To My Child, or more structured, traditional options like Your First Years. There are also four grandparent journals and bundles that can save you money when you purchase more than one.
