About Us – CHARDAN

CHARDAN is a family story — one rooted in love, resilience, and the incredible journey we share with our two boys, Charles and Daniel. As a family navigating autism, ADHD, and apraxia, we’ve learned that the world looks different through their eyes… and that different can be extraordinary.

Our home is filled with moments that challenge us, teach us, surprise us, and make us laugh. These real, raw, beautiful experiences inspired us to create something more than a clothing brand — something that reflects the strength, joy, and uniqueness of families like ours.

Every design carries a piece of our journey: the courage, the humour, the breakthroughs, the meltdowns, and the magic that come with raising neurodivergent children. CHARDAN exists to celebrate these moments and to help families feel seen, supported, and understood.

Finding the right school for our boys was one of our biggest challenges — a journey filled with uncertainty and worry. But when we walked into New Hope School, we knew we had finally found our home. A place where our boys are accepted, supported, and encouraged to grow in their own time and in their own way.

Because New Hope has become such an important part of our story, we donate a portion of our profits to the school every year. It’s our way of giving back to the community that has given our family so much hope, comfort, and belonging.

CHARDAN isn’t just clothing. It’s our family’s heart stitched into every piece. It’s a celebration of children who see the world differently. It’s a reminder that every family’s journey — no matter how unique — deserves respect, compassion, and love.

From our family to yours — welcome to CHARDAN. Made with love. Inspired by our boys. Created for families who believe that different is beautiful.
