Little Houses | Membership & CRM (RFP Response)

Reimagining community-led membership experiences through thoughtful UX, omni-channel design, and family-first features.

Little Houses Group issued an RFP seeking a new app and CRM solution to better serve their members and internal staff. As a fast-growing network of family-focused clubs, they needed a digital experience that matched the quality of their in-person service - making it easier for parents to book classes, manage memberships, and stay connected, while helping staff streamline admin and teacher tasks. This was a conceptual proposal in response to their RFP - but designed with real users and business outcomes in mind.

Role

  • Conducted competitor analysis and deep research into loyalty, rewards, community features, and hybrid experiences.

  • Created end-to-end wireframes and flows, iterated through feedback, and defined clear UX strategies.

  • Presented the final concepts as part of the official RFP response.

  • Collaborated with a junior designer on UI and helped coordinate timelines, roles, and deliverables.

Process

  • Reviewed business requirements and analysed key user types - members, teachers, and admins.

  • Carried out research across direct competitors and best-in-class digital experiences (e.g. Soho House, ClassPass, MyFitnessPal).

  • Identified critical friction points in existing booking and communication flows.

  • Developed UX wireframes and presented back to senior product owner for feedback.

  • Collaborated with UI designer to bring key screens to life in line with Little Houses’ visual identity.

Benefits

  • Improved parent experience with intuitive booking and personalised content

  • Reduced admin workload with household data, requests, and scheduling streamlined

  • Stronger brand connection through thoughtful tone, design, and loyalty features

  • Set a strong foundation for omni-channel growth across clubs, events, and partners.

Solution

We proposed a fully connected mobile app and CRM solution to support both members and staff. The app made it easy to discover and book classes, make special requests, and manage household details - while also giving teachers tools to view schedules, check attendance, and coordinate with admin. The design focused on convenience, flexibility, and tone of voice that felt warm, not clinical - a reflection of Little Houses' brand.
