How to create a nursery?

Some tips to create your nursery include:

• Theme: Consider having a subtle theme – can be based on color or style
• Separate zones for feeding/changing/sleeping: Depending on the size of your room, but you do need different areas for these three main activities
• Gender neutral: Consider opting for gender neutral styling especially if you don’t know the sex of your baby
• Furniture: The absolute essentials are a bassinet/cot, change table, and a comfy chair for feeding time
• Lighting: Consider multiple light sources including a window and a lamp for late night feeds

6 Best Baby Nursery Products

Here’s a rundown of 6 beautiful products to help create your dream baby nursery.

1.     Bassinet/ Cot

Let’s start with the most crucial element for your child’s nursery – their bed! Choose from a bassinet (suitable up until 6 months old) or cot (generally suitable up until at least toddler years). The bed will be the centerpiece of your nursery and there are tons of models out there to choose from depending on your preferences and size of your room. Consider the SNOO Bassinet if you value sleep, otherwise the choice is yours!

2.     Baby Play Mat

The best product you never knew you needed until baby arrived! Seriously, a baby play mat is one of the best investments you’ll make. Suitable for newborns and beyond, pop them on here for hands-free time and later on for tummy time. They’re squishy and comfy with lots of padding, and you can choose between tons of different shapes and designs to find the perfect one for your nursery. They’ll add a fun splash of colour to your room too.

3.     Baby Rocker

Pure fun for baby! We love using a rocker for our babies as they’re great for everyone involved. Bub gets to rock out and work their motor skills, whilst parents are able to go hands-free with ease. Choose from lots of beautiful rockers for the one that suits your aesthetics best.

4.     Night Light

Essential for late night feeds! Get yourself a cute night light in a diverse range of shapes (and fun characters) to add some warmth and much needed light to your child’s room. You’ll get good use out of it during feeds, and then as your child grows.

5.     The Memo Cot Sheets

With every cot, comes a pair of beautiful cot sheets. We recommend only fitted cot or bassinet sheets for newborns (leave the flat sheets for when your child is one year old or more). Look for organic sheets if possible as they are more breathable, and soft against newborn baby skin. Choose colours that suit the theme of your nursery or the walls.

6.     Purebaby Products Blanket

Not essential but it sure is cute! We love the crisp white Essentials Blanket from PureBaby as a thoughtful touch to a nursery. This soft, organic cotton blanket is a beautiful way to add a layer of warmth for your baby around the house or when out-and-about.

Inspired to start creating your nursery? Whether you’re crafting a room for a little princess or prince, or keeping things unisex, getting your nursery prepared is tons of fun. Happy nesting!
