Meet Kathryn
I’m so glad you’ve found My Christmas Pyjamas! Now let me tell you a little bit about how it all started...
It was August 2018 and I was living in Sydney after taking a couple of years off to travel the world. I had been living there for 18 months, and was planning to head back to the UK for Christmas. My brother, who had been living in Melbourne for five years, was also coming home, and we were all so excited to spend Christmas together as a family for the first time in five years! I was chatting with my mum on the phone and said ‘we should all get matching pyjamas!’. But, the problem was, none of us knew where we could get them from! And that’s when the idea for My Christmas Pyjamas was born.
I worked day and night to find the perfect patterns and prints. And, before I knew it, I was completely obsessed with the idea of the whole family in matching pyjamas, at the most magical time of the year! Christmas will always hold a special place in my heart, as I have such special memories of Christmas throughout my childhood, and so this business felt like the perfect business for me. Six weeks later, My Christmas Pyjamas went live.
The following year, I introduced matching pyjamas for pets because, let's face it, our furry friends are part of the family too right?! Fast forward to today, and we’re celebrating our eighth year in business, and it’s been an incredible journey. I’m back in the UK now, and we’ve expanded to our very own warehouse (because my Mum and I couldn’t handle shipping all the orders from home anymore)!
In 2022, you may have seen me on the primetime BBC show, The Apprentice! I made it all the way to the final after battling through 12 tough weeks of challenges, and though I didn’t win Lord Sugar’s investment, I launched our sister company, Pyjamily (check it out – they would make a FAB gifts for your loved ones too)!
I absolutely love what I do, and my pour my heart and soul in to this company to bring you the very best Christmas pyjamas each year. Each order truly means the world to me, and yes, I still do a little happy dance every time we get a new one! It fills me with so much happiness to see familiar faces returning year after year - it’s the best feeling to know you’re part of the My Christmas Pyjamas family!
