Welcome to Raising Aidan!

We’re not just a business...

We’re a mom and her son fighting for safety, healing, and a better life, one cupcake mix, bath bomb, and sensory play product at a time.

Raising Aidan began as a Facebook page in 2011, after Aidan was diagnosed with Costello Syndrome. What started as a space to share our journey soon grew into a community, a fundraiser, a celebration of one remarkable young boy, and now, a purpose-driven brand built on love, resilience, and hope.

"If you’re a parent, a survivor, a supporter, or a heart rediscovering its strength - you’re home."

- Melissa

Why we're here

At Raising Aidan, our mission is to create affordable, heartfelt products and resources that make life easier for parents, whether they’re raising neurodivergent or neurotypical children. Inspired by our own journey of resilience, healing from abuse, and our determination to give Aidan the life he deserves, we’re here to bring comfort, hope, and practical support to families who refuse to give up.

Where we're going

We’re turning our crisis into a movement, one that helps families everywhere find hope, healing, and humour.
Our goal is to build a sustainable children’s brand rooted in real love, real stories, and real solutions that truly make a difference in everyday lives.

Why it matters

Because every child deserves to feel safe, seen, and celebrated, and every parent deserves to know they’re not alone.
Raising Aidan wasn’t built from heartbreak, but from strength,  from a mother’s determination to find answers, resources, and hope when things felt impossibly hard. What began as survival became purpose, and that spirit now lives in everything we create. From our products to our mission, we stand with families who keep showing up with love, even on the toughest days, and we’re right there with you, every step of the way.
