DDLG stands for daddy dom little girl. It describes a power exchange between two consenting adults in which one takes a caregiving, authority role and the other takes a dependent, playful one. It is a kind of age play, and it is very widely misunderstood.
What it is not
It is worth answering this first, because it is the question behind most searches. DDLG is between adults. It has nothing to do with children, it does not involve children, and it is not an interest in children. Age play is adults playing roles with each other, in the same way that any other role play is. Anyone presenting it otherwise is describing something else entirely, and that something else is a crime.
What the dynamic involves
Less than people assume, and often nothing sexual at all. The caregiving side is usually the point: rules, bedtimes, praise, being looked after, being told what to do about small things. Many people in these dynamics describe the appeal as being allowed to stop making decisions for a while. Where it is sexual, it is sexual between adults who have agreed what happens.
The vocabulary around it
- Little. The person in the younger role, whatever their gender.
- Caregiver, CG, daddy or mummy. The person in the looking after role.
- CGL. Caregiver little, the gender neutral version of the same thing.
- Littlespace. The headspace someone is in while in the role.
Consent, as with everything else
Age play is negotiated like any other scene: limits agreed beforehand, a safe word settled, and aftercare planned. Dropping out of the role can be disorienting, so aftercare matters here more than in most dynamics.

Some escorts who offer domination work also offer caregiver or age play dynamics, and some will not. It is a specific interest rather than a standard one, so ask plainly in the first message instead of hoping. Nobody is obliged to offer it. Fetish and domination escorts covers how to raise it, and dom, sub and switch covers the wider power exchange vocabulary.
