Maternity Journal Design & Content Refinement

Project Title: Bump Journal Design – The Little Years Collection

I’m looking for a designer to help develop a bump journal that is part of my broader brand collection called The Little Years Collection (Bump, Baby, Toddler, Special Edition Birthday).

This project focuses specifically on the Bump Journal.

⸻

Overview:

I want to offer two versions of the same journal:

1. Guided Journal Version

* This version already has structured content created (prompts, sections, and flow).
* It is a memory-style pregnancy journal designed to capture the journey from early pregnancy through to birth.
* The content is more structured and reflective, with thoughtful prompts throughout.

2. Free-Flow Journal Version

* A simpler, more minimal version.
* Mostly blank journaling pages with very light guidance (minimal prompts or section headings only).
* Designed for mums who prefer creative freedom rather than structured writing.

Both versions should feel cohesive and clearly part of the same product range.

⸻

What I need help with:

* Layout design for both journal versions
* Page structuring and overall flow across the pregnancy journey
* Creating a premium, calming, minimal design aesthetic
* Balancing typography, spacing, and white space
* Ensuring both versions feel consistent within the same brand collection
* Print-ready formatting and final production files
* Helping refine the content flow for the guided version where needed

⸻

Content Support Needed:

I would also like help refining the guided journal content, including:

* Improving wording and readability
* Helping ensure prompts feel natural, emotional, and engaging
* Strengthening flow from early pregnancy through to birth
* Adding or suggesting improvements where needed

⸻

Style:

* Premium, minimal, emotional, and timeless
* Clean layout with soft feminine energy
* Not cluttered or overwhelming
* Easy and enjoyable to use

⸻

What I’m looking for:

I’m ideally looking for a designer who has previous experience creating pregnancy journals, baby books, memory books, or keepsake-style products.

Please include relevant samples of similar work in your portfolio when applying.

This is not just a design-only role—I need someone comfortable working with both layout design and light content refinement.

⸻

Important:

If you do not have experience in journal/book layout design and cannot support with content flow and refinement, please do not apply.

This is part of a larger brand collection, so consistency across future products (baby, toddler, birthday editions) will be very important.
