    Kitty Pidduck is a children’s writer and songwriter with over 30 years’ experience delivering music sessions in early years, arts and community settings. A passionate advocate of outdoor learning, she teaches in several outdoor settings, including a forest school and a wildlife garden.

    Kitty founded her company, Pidduck Productions, with the help of her sister, Polly, to bring her nature-inspired children’s songs and stories to the screen.

    Here’s what kids and families say:

    • ‘I REALLY like the song about a bee’ (Nala, aged 8)

    • ‘I like the tinkling part’ (Edie, aged 6)

    • ‘It’s good when an animal in a story has another animal’s name like a dog called Badger’ (Alexander, aged 11)

    • ‘Owl Babies, a-wibbly wobbly’ (Leah, aged 2.5)

    • ‘I can’t get Shaking Your Tail out of my head. It’s very catchy, that one’ (Rose, aged 86)

  • Producer

    Polly Pidduck is Kitty's sister and a contributing producer of Daisy Digs It.

    With a background in both theatre performance and corporate marketing, Polly acts as a creative and business sounding board, playing a supporting role in the production and development of the key value propositions of the show.

    Polly and Kitty have been collaborating ever since they were kids. Their first song, Oh, will you play with me? Yes, I will but I won’t play Monopoly, was performed in their parents’ bedroom – to rapturous applause – in 1975.
