About Million Dollar Baby Co.
Million Dollar Baby Co. started in 1990 and is proudly family-owned and operated in Los Angeles. Since then, MDB has grown to 7 distinct brands of children’s furnishings ranging in style, aesthetic, and price, while carrying some of the industry’s most eco-conscious and award-winning designs. We can be found in retailers like Target and Amazon, and specialty retailers like Pottery Barn Kids and Crate & Barrel.
Under the Million Dollar Baby Co. parent company are our family of brands: Babyletto, daVinci, Nursery Works, and Namesake. We’re proud to offer the most Greenguard Gold–certified cribs on the market and to use FSC-certified sustainable wood across our brands whenever possible. We’ve also pioneered Styrofoam-free packaging for several of our best-selling collections — an innovation that reduces waste while protecting our products during shipment.
At Million Dollar Baby Co., our team members are our #1 priority, and we partner with exceptional partners and retailers around the world who share our core values:
• Treat Your Team Like Family — lead with respect, gratitude, empathy, and kindness.

• Deliver a “Wow” Customer Experience Every Time — every detail matters.
• Strive for Continuous Improvement & Learning — keep growing, keep getting better.
• Cultivate Quality Conversations — communicate honestly and thoughtfully to build trust.
Over the years, our commitment to people, innovation, and a positive workplace culture has earned us five consecutive “Best Place to Work” awards, one of the best workplaces by “Built in LA”, a 4.6 rating on Glassdoor, and 13 years on the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Companies list — recognitions that reflect the heart of who we are and the community we’re proud to build. We’d love to talk to you!
What you’ll be doing:
We’re building something rare: a family of brands with genuine cultural relevance, distinct aesthetic identities, and a creative standard that refuses to settle. We’re looking for a Graphic Designer who brings a strong point of view, an insatiable curiosity, and the craft to translate both into work that stops people mid-scroll.
This role sits at the intersection of brand storytelling and execution — producing visual content across digital, social, email, retail, and beyond. You won’t just follow brand guidelines; you’ll internalize them deeply enough to push them forward. You’ll work across Babyletto, Namesake, and daVinci Baby, understanding what makes each brand distinct and designing accordingly.
Responsibilities:
- Design compelling visual content for digital advertising, social media (Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, Facebook, YouTube), email, websites, and retailer platforms — with a creative standard that is visually arresting, culturally relevant, and aesthetically elevated
- Apply motion graphics, animation, and GIFs to bring brand storytelling to life across channels
- Partner closely with the Senior Designer and cross-functional teams (Digital, Social, Communications, Brand) to deliver work that serves both brand and business goals
- Develop deep fluency in each brand’s aesthetic, voice, and positioning — acting as a guardian of creative integrity across every touchpoint
- Own and maintain our DTC websites as living brand expressions — regularly auditing content, refreshing assets, and identifying opportunities to improve the visual experience, conversion flow, and on-site storytelling
- Understand and design toward performance — fluent in the metrics that matter (ROAS, reach, CTR, thumb stop rate, site traffic) and using that data to continuously refine creative output
- Actively incorporate AI tools into your workflow: use them to accelerate production, explore creative directions faster, and free up bandwidth for the work that requires genuine human taste and judgment
- Stay curious about emerging tools, design trends, and cultural shifts — regularly bringing fresh perspective and relevant references to the team
- Edit video and photo assets for use across social, web, and retail partner sites
- Develop print and marketing materials as needed: mood boards, trade show signage, posters, brochures, merchandise, presentation decks
- Manage multiple projects simultaneously, communicate progress clearly, and consistently meet deadlines
- Show up as a collaborative, energizing presence on the team — someone who makes the creative work and the people around them better
What you bring to the table:
- Bachelor’s degree in a related field, or equivalent combination of training and 3+ years of hands-on experience
- Proven mastery of design fundamentals: layout, color theory, typography, and visual hierarchy
- Expert proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Premiere, After Effects)
- Expert proficiency in Figma and Canva
- Demonstrated experience designing for web, mobile, tablet, and print collaterals
- Comfort with — and genuine curiosity about — AI-powered creative tools (generative image tools, AI video, workflow automation, etc.); willingness to experiment, share learnings, and push the team forward
- Solid understanding of social and digital video platforms and what performs on each
- Working knowledge of Microsoft Office Suite
- Strong conceptual thinking: you have a point of view, you can articulate it, and you can execute it
- Excellent communicator — clear, direct, and receptive to feedback
- A proactive, solution-oriented mindset; you see constraints as creative problems to solve
- Passion for design, interiors, and visual culture — you notice things other people walk past
- A genuinely great attitude: collaborative, curious, and committed to doing work you’re proud of
