The screen-free Australian home phone for kids. Rings only for the people you choose — no apps, no screen, no internet.
The screen-free Australian home phone for kids. Rings only for the people you choose — no apps, no screen, no internet.
From the box to the first call — and how you stay in the loop.
Open the parent app and invite Grandma, the best friend, the aunties. Everyone else is blocked by default — no approved number, no ring.
Dinner, homework, sleep — the phone goes still until you let it back in. Emergency contacts always get through.
Three speed-dial buttons on the phone. One press connects them straight to Nanny, Grandad, or their best friend — no dialling required.
Incoming, outgoing, blocked attempts — all in your parent app. No standing over their shoulder, no surprises.

) : null}You decide exactly who can call your child — grandparents, aunties, best friends. No strangers, no spam, no surprises. Just the people who matter most.
Ciao Bella is a phone that's just a phone. No apps, no internet, no doom-scrolling. Kids pick it up, talk to someone they love, and put it down.
One-press speed dial to their top three friends. A voicemail from Nanny when they missed her call. Quiet hours when it's time to read. All the good bits of a home phone — every one made for small hands.
Ciao Bella does three-way calls, so the whole gang can natter at once. One press pulls a second friend onto the line — best friends, cousins, Nanny and Grandad — all talking together. It's the group chat, minus the screens.
Every phone comes with a sheet of peel-and-stick stickers. Kids deck theirs out however they like — so it's unmistakably theirs the moment it's out of the box, and no two phones end up quite the same.
Founders Jasmin & Sophie
We're Australian founders who've spent our careers building products that make a real difference in people's lives — Jasmin in technology and product, Sophie in e-commerce, brand and marketing.
We built Ciao Bella because we believed our own kids deserved the magic of a phone call — their own little device, their own sense of independence — without a screen full of everything else that comes with it.
Save more when you order for siblings, cousins, or best friends. Same phone every time — pricing just gets better when they have someone to call.
Reserve any bundle for $25 today — full balance charged when your phone ships. Cancel anytime before then. Every phone includes: choice of colour · free parent app · free shipping · 30-day money-back guarantee · 12-month warranty
We're a small Australian team building Ciao Bella for our own kids first. Every phone in this first run is mixed, matched and packed by us — not stacked in a warehouse waiting for an algorithm to ship it.
When your order lands at your door, you'll have one of us on email — usually within the hour. Setup hiccup, wrong colour, change of plan? Just tell us. We'll fix it.
That's the company we want to buy from. We hope it's the kind of company you want your kids' first phone to come from too.
— The Ciao Bella team
There are a handful of kid-phone options out there now. Here's what makes ours the one to bring home.
Designed, set up and supported from here. Local stock, local warranty, and a real person on the other end of every email — usually one of the founders.
It lives on a desk or bench, not strapped to a wrist. No SIM, no cellular plan, no GPS tracker. Plug it in once and it just rings.
Grandma's place, the best friend down the road, the cousins interstate — every call between Ciao Bellas costs nothing. Always will.
Nine two-tone colour combos, hand-matched before they ship. A small object made to be loved — and left out — not stuffed in a drawer and outgrown.
