Nursery Essentials
Preparing for the arrival of a newborn can be an exciting but overwhelming experience. One of the most important things to consider is creating a comfortable and safe nursery for your baby.
Here are some of our favourite nursery essentials you may want to include in your newborn’s room:
- Crib: A crib is an essential piece of furniture for your newborn’s nursery. Make sure to choose a crib that meets safety standards, and that has a firm mattress that fits snugly inside. You may also want to consider purchasing a waterproof mattress cover, as well as a few fitted sheets. – CRIB | Love For Sleep
- Dresser: A dresser is a great addition to your newborn’s nursery, providing ample storage space for clothes, diapers, and other essential items. You may also want to consider a changing table that can be attached to the dresser, making diaper changes more convenient. – DRESSER | Mamas & Papas
- Rocking chair or glider: A comfortable chair can be a lifesaver during those late-night feedings and soothing sessions. Consider purchasing a rocking chair or glider that is comfortable and easy to clean. – GLIDER CHAIR | Scandiborn
- Baby monitor: A baby monitor is a great way to keep an eye on your little one while they sleep. Look for a monitor that has clear sound quality, and that has a long battery life. – MONITOR | John Lewis
- Swaddle blankets: Swaddle blankets are a great way to keep your newborn feeling cosy and secure. Look for blankets that are made from soft, breathable materials, and that are easy to wash. – SWADDLE | Love To Dream
- Baby bouncer/rocker chair: These chairs are great for your newborn for both soothing and comforting them and for stimulating play. Great to keep your little one settled and entertained. – BOUNCER | Mamas & Papas
- Onesies and sleepers: Your newborn will go through a lot of onesies and sleepers in the first few months of life. Stock up on a variety of sizes and styles to ensure you always have clean clothes on hand. – SLEEPSUITS | Mamas & Papas
- Muslin cloths: Babies tend to spit up frequently, so having a supply of burp cloths on hand is essential. Look for cloths that are absorbent and easy to wash. – MUSLINS | Aden & Anais
- Baby bath tub: Giving your newborn a bath can be a bit intimidating at first, but having a baby bath tub can make the process a lot easier. Look for a tub that is comfortable and secure, and that is easy to clean. – BABY BATH | Mamas & Papas
- Activity play mat: An activity play mat is a great addition to your nursery that encourages learning based play and sensory development for your newborn. – ACTIVITY PLAY MAT | Scandiborn
Creating a nursery for your newborn can be a lot of work, but it is also an exciting and rewarding experience. By including these nursery essentials in your nursery, you can ensure that your baby has a comfortable and safe space to grow and thrive.
