Overview
After The Children’s Place acquired Gymboree, I led the brand’s creative relaunch — the identity expression, the campaign system, and the site experience — rebuilding a brand parents genuinely loved for the way families actually shop now.

01 · The Challenge
Relaunch a brand parents loved, for parents who shop online.
Gymboree carried deep nostalgia but arrived with no stores, no team, and no digital playbook. The relaunch had to honor what families remembered while standing up an entirely new commerce presence inside the TCP portfolio.
02 · The Approach
Nostalgia in the brand, performance in the engine.
We rebuilt the brand expression around Gymboree’s classic optimism, designed a campaign system tuned for digital channels from day one, and launched the new gymboree.com experience on the portfolio’s commerce platform.
03 · The Work
A relaunch that felt like a homecoming.
