LOS ANGELES and NEW YORK, Sept. 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HALO Dream Inc. (“HALO”), a portfolio company of Transom Capital Group (“Transom”), is proud to announce the acquisition of Child Craft, a beloved and iconic brand known for its high-quality wood nursery furniture and decor. Child Craft’s products include cribs, beds, dressers and other essentials that have earned the trust of American families for generations.
This acquisition marks HALO’s third in just 16 months, following the successful integrations of BreathableBaby (May 2024) and Baby Merlin (March 2025). Together, these acquisitions reinforce HALO’s commitment to delivering premium juvenile sleep solutions that help babies—and their parents—sleep better and longer. The acquired product line will be transitioned to the HALO brand.
“Since 1954, Child Craft has been synonymous with safety, comfort, and style,” said Walter Lehneis, CEO of HALO. “We’re thrilled to welcome this trusted brand to the HALO family. Child Craft aligns perfectly with our mission, and we look forward to investing to grow our presence in the nursery decor category.”
“Transom is committed to supporting HALO’s growth and market leadership, and we’re excited to help HALO scale its premium nursery offerings through this acquisition,” said Rob Papetti, Senior Vice President at Transom. “Child Craft expands HALO’s sleep-focused product portfolio with the addition of high-quality, well-appointed wood designs, aligning perfectly with HALO’s mission of delivering safe, trusted products that both parents and babies love.”
