How to choose baby bedding
Your baby’s peaceful, comfortable sleep is just as crucial as his nutrition. To guarantee this comfort and safety, it’s essential to think carefully when buying baby bedding and textile accessories. Here’s our advice to help you make the best choices.
Safety first
For parents, baby’s safety and healthy, peaceful sleep are paramount. When choosing children’s bedding, it’s essential to pay attention to the quality and composition of the materials used. The best baby bedding is high-quality, 100% cotton. Cotton is natural and breathable, which helps prevent excessive sweating. What’s more, its high quality ensures that even after many washes, the bedding will remain soft and delicate, and the patterns won’t lose their luster.
Our bedding recommendations
Textile accessories for babies include baby nests, sleeping bags, swaddling bags, blankets, comforters and pillows. It’s important to check that the filling in these products has anti-allergic properties. Avoid feather fillings, as babies can often be allergic to them. Anti-allergy and anti-bacterial fillings, which are breathable and non-irritating, are the safest. Polyester is particularly recommended because it can be washed frequently, which is essential for the hygiene of newborns and babies.
Practicality and comfort
When choosing baby sleep products, it’s also important to pay attention to their finish, especially the fastenings. The best option is bedding with integrated filling, without zippers or buttons, which avoids any risk to the baby and allows the bedding to be washed in its entirety, guaranteeing optimum cleanliness and freshness. That’s exactly what we offer with our bedding! Safe and easy to use!
Remember to have two sets
Whatever type of bedding you choose for your child, it’s advisable to have two sets. Babies can soil one of them very quickly, so it’s crucial to have a spare alternative.

1. Which bedding for baby? Which size to choose?
For a baby, we recommend the smallest size, 75×100 cm. This bedding is suitable for babies up to around 1.5-2 years. The pillows are flat, so totally safe for babies. As the child grows, we recommend investing in larger bedding, preferably 100×135 cm, suitable for up to 4-5 years. Our beddings are made from the best materials available, are light and airy, ensuring optimum air circulation and pleasant warmth. They can be used all year round.

2. Fitted sheet
In our store, we offer fitted sheets made from organic cotton. They are beautiful, natural and durable, available in different sizes.
3. Swaddling bag
In the first few weeks of life, newborns need warmth, comfort and time to adapt to their new environment. A sleeping bag can help in this respect. By wrapping the baby snugly, it provides a sense of security and comfort, reminiscent of mom’s womb. It also makes it easier to support the baby during his first weeks. The sleeping bag is generally used up to around 3-4 months, after which it can be used as a mat or blanket. It’s ideal from birth, in the hospital, in the bed, baby carriage or on the sofa.
4. Maxi swaddling bag
This is a larger version of the swaddling bag, usable up to around 6-8 months. It is reversible.
5. Sleeping bag
Instead of a bedding set, you can opt for a baby sleeping bag. It’s a perfect replacement for bedding, especially in the first months of a baby’s life. It’s comfortable and soft, and thanks to its wide base, it doesn’t restrict baby’s movements. The absence of sleeves ensures good ventilation and allows the baby to be dressed according to the temperature. Baby can’t uncover during the night, staying warm and comfortable. Zippers make changing diapers a breeze. We offer two sizes: 0-6 months and 6-12 months.
6. Babynest
Thanks to its unique design, the babynest limits the child’s movements, providing a sense of security and comfort. These nests are extremely functional, preventing the baby from rolling out of the bed or sofa. The high edges protect the baby’s arms and legs from the bed’s bars. The babynest can also be used as a bouncer on the floor, sofa or parents’ bed. It’s ideal for traveling, visiting grandparents or going on vacation, guaranteeing baby a safe and familiar bed. Used in the knotted version, it is suitable up to 6-8 months, and after untying, it can be used as a cot bumper for several more months.
7. Sleeping bag with legs
For children who are starting to walk or crawl, we offer sleeping bags with legs as an alternative to conventional bedding. The legs allow freedom of movement. The child can stand up and sit down freely. The sleeping bag has an anti-allergy filling and flaps on the legs to keep feet warm.
