About Babysteps

Your brand first. Never ours.

Babysteps builds the tools that let an estate agency present itself professionally, without needing a technical department of its own. Our starting point is simple: an independent agency deserves the same digital capability as the large groups — under its own name.

Where we are heading

We build the system out in phases, so you never pay for what you are not using yet. You start with a solid foundation; smart insights and, later, AI come on top when you are ready for them. The CRM grows with your agency, not the other way round.

Our mission

To give independent estate agents the technology that is otherwise reserved for the large groups — straightforward, affordable and entirely under their own brand.

The people behind it

Babysteps is run as a family firm: founder Jacques C. Schandorff and his father and co-founder Jacques H. Schandorff. You speak to the people who build it — no ticket queue in between.

Where we stand today

Honest about where we are

We would rather tell you this up front than have you find out later.

A running product

BabystepsCRM is in daily use by agencies in Spain — not a prototype and not a mock-up. South Africa is where we are opening next, and you would be among the first agencies here.

A local team, being built

We are setting up a local South African team so you have people in your own time zone. Until they are in place you deal with us directly, in English, and we work around your hours.

Your data, and POPIA

Your listings, clients and documents stay yours and are exportable at any moment. The system is built with South African data protection (POPIA) in mind; we will not claim more than that while the legal side is still being finalised.

Why BabystepsCRM

Premium, and truly yours

Your own brand

Fully white-label — your name and look everywhere. BabystepsCRM stays behind the scenes.

Everything in one place

Website, listings, leads, calendar, documents and email — no more patchwork of tools.

Your data stays yours

Export any time, no lock-in. If you ever leave, you keep your domain, content and data.

Personal support

A real partner who knows your agency — not a ticket queue or a call centre.

Alongside the portals

Keep syndicating wherever you syndicate today. The portals bring traffic; your own site brings enquiries that are yours.

Cancellable monthly

No long-term commitment. Phase 1 stands on its own; phases 2 and 3 only if and when you want them.

Want to see your own website first?

Already have a website? We rebuild it as a BabystepsCRM site with a full CRM behind it. Nothing yet? We build you an example from scratch. Then we call you to walk you through it — no obligation.
