Creating Childhood Memories: Our Team's Favorite MomentsWhen you look back on your own childhood, there’s probably a specific moment or memory that stands out—something you reflect on with warmth and joy. It shows just how important it is to give your child beautiful memories to cherish later in life. We asked 5 of our colleagues to share their favorite childhood memory. Emy (37) – Social Media Marketer and mom of Phlyn (9) and Philou (7)My brother and I are only 1.5 years apart, so we did everything together. One summer in Spain, we had our own little tent next to our parents’ caravan. At night, we’d place pillows just outside the tent so we could lie down and watch the stars while chatting. One night, after our parents had already fallen asleep, we took our pocket money, snuck out of the tent, and went to the bar to buy ourselves some ice cream — and enjoyed every bite. Tara (29) – Brand ManagerMy favorite childhood memories come from the many holidays we spent in Italy. Vacations have always been a big part of our family — and still are! Every year, my parents, my brother, and I would camp at ‘Montescudaio’ together with another family. We had the best adventures: playing table tennis, eating Italian food, exploring towns, mini lip-sync shows, countless attempts at diving (I still can’t dive), and making new friends. I had the time of my life! Margreet (30) – Product Marketing Manager and mom of Elin (0)My childhood memory takes place on Sunday mornings, which were all about family brunch. Sitting around the table with my parents, brother, and sisters, enjoying croissants, fresh orange juice, and boiled eggs. We’d take turns helping to prepare the brunch. It’s a tradition I definitely want to continue with my own family! Inez (32) – Webshop Manager and mom of Charlie (2)My favorite memory has to be the fun camping holidays in the South of France with the whole family. We'd all pile into the car early in the morning. Every few hours, we’d get to open a little gift to keep my brother, sister, and me happy in the backseat. We’d spend the night in tiny tents, and I just fit on a small inflatable surfboard at the very back. Every morning started with baguettes and croissants, followed by building sandcastles on the beach. My dad would build cars, boats, pools, and castles with tunnels for our beach ball to roll through — that was the highlight of the day, next to getting ice cream in the nearby village. We still go back to that campsite, and it’s so special to now create those same memories with my own child. Shyra (22) – Graphic DesignerThe first thing that comes to mind when I think of my favorite childhood memory is the weekend nights when my parents, my twin sister, and I would turn the living room into a magical space full of mattresses, pillows, and blankets! My sister and I got to choose a movie, and we’d watch it together surrounded by tons of snacks. We were allowed to stay up late — every kid’s dream! Best of all, we were allowed to sleep in the living room afterwards. These were the nights filled with silliness, fort building, and quality time. Truly unforgettable memories! Als jij terugdenkt aan je eigen jeugd is er vast een gebeurtenis of herinnering die eruit springt en waar je met warmte op terugkijkt. Zo zie je ook maar hoe belangrijk het is om je kindje mooie herinneringen mee te geven om later aan terug te kunnen denken. Wij vroegen 5 collega’s naar hun mooiste jeugdherinnering.Emy (37) - social media marketeer en mama van Phlyn (9) en Philou (7)Mijn broer en ik schelen maar 1,5 jaar en waren vroeger altijd samen. Zo ook die ene zomer in Spanje, in ons eigen tentje naast de caravan van onze ouders. Samen legden we dan de kussens net buiten de tent om naar de sterren te kunnen kijken en gezellig te kletsen. Op een avond sliepen onze ouders al en hebben we ons zakgeld gepakt, zijn uit de tent geslopen om bij de bar een ijsje te gaan kopen en die lekker op te peuzelen.Tara (29) - brand managerVoor mijn mooiste jeugdherinnering blik ik terug op de verschillende vakanties in Italië, want vakantie stond altijd al centraal in ons gezin én nog steeds! Samen met mijn ouders, broer en een ander gezin stonden we jaar in jaar uit op de camping 'Montescudaio', waar we echt de leukste avonturen beleefden. Tafeltennissen, Italiaans eten, stadjes bezoeken, mini playbackshows, 1000 pogingen tot duiken (ik kan het nog steeds niet) en nieuwe vriendjes en vriendinnetjes maken, ik had de tijd van mijn leven!Margreet (30) - product marketing manager en mama van Elin (0)Mijn jeugdherinnering speelt zich af op de zondagochtenden. Deze ochtenden stonden in het teken van de family brunch. Gezellig aan tafel met mijn ouders, broer en zussen. Met lekkere croissantjes, verse jus en een eitje. Uiteraard mochten we om de beurt helpen met het verzorgen van de brunch. Deze traditie wil ik graag voortzetten met mijn eigen gezin! Inez (32) - webshop manager en mama van Charlie (2)Mijn favoriete herinnering uit mijn jeugd is sowieso de gezellige kampeervakantie in Zuid-Frankrijk met de hele familie. Lekker opgepropt met z’n allen in de auto in de vroegte vertrekken. Om de zoveel uur mochten we een cadeautje uitpakken om mijn broer, zus en mij op de achterbank tevreden te houden. Onderweg met z’n allen lekker knus in een mini tentje overnachten, ik paste precies op een klein opblaassurfplankje helemaal achterin de tent. Op de camping elke ochtend ontbijten met stokbrood en een croissant en daarna zandkastelen bouwen op het strand. M’n vader bouwde auto’s, zwembadjes, boten en kastelen waar het beachbal balletje doorheen kon rollen en dat was het hoogtepunt van de dag. Naast het ijsje dat we ’s avonds haalden in het dorpje naast de camping. Niet voor niets komen wij nog regelmatig terug naar deze camping en hoe leuk is het om dezelfde herinneringen nu te maken met m’n eigen kind? Shyra (22) - grafisch designer Het eerste wat mij te binnen schiet wanneer je mij de vraag stelt "Wat is jouw leukste jeugdherinnering?", dan denk ik aan de avonden in het weekend waarop we eens in de zoveel tijd met mijn ouders, tweelingzus en ik de woonkamer gingen omtoveren tot een magische plek vol met allemaal matrassen, kussens en dekens! Mijn zus en ik mochten dan een film uitzoeken. We keken vervolgens de hele avond film, met een overvloed aan snacks binnen handbereik. We mochten die avonden lekker laat op blijven, wie wil dat nou niet als kind zijnde?! Als kers op de taart mochten we natuurlijk ook in de woonkamer blijven slapen. Dit waren de avonden van lekker gek doen, hutten bouwen en gezellig samen zijn. Kortom, mooie herinneringen!

Winter is almost here, and it’s time to turn up the coziness with your little one! In our latest blog, you’ll find the ultimate winter must-haves to make this season extra snug. Think soft blankets, swaddles that’ll make you go “aww,” the cutest bathrobes, and comfy hooded towels. Ready to step into your baby’s winter wonderland with these essentials? Four Seasons of Comfort, All in One!It’s always tricky to know what your mini should wear to sleep — especially during those season transitions. The 4-season sleeping bag is the solution! With a removable inner layer, you can transform it from a summer sack into a winter one in no time. This ensures your baby enjoys warm, comfy nights — and it helps them sleep more peacefully. Sleeping bags limit movement and offer a sense of security. Winter has never felt this cozy! Knitted WannahavesA knitted blanket doesn’t just look cozy — it is cozy. Our lovely blankets from the Grain Knit collection are the ultimate must-haves to send your mini off to dreamland. Just pick your favorite trendy color, and choose between the version with or without soft fleece lining. Merino Wonders: The Softest Wool Blanket for Babies!A fluffy winter must-have for your little one! Keep your baby comfortably warm on chilly days with this lovely merino wool blanket. Merino wool is naturally self-cleaning, durable, and non-itchy — making it the perfect material for baby blankets. Pair it with a Jollein sheet and fitted sheet to create the ultimate cozy nest. Will you choose the color funghi or oatmeal? Hugably Soft BathrobesIf anything screams cozy, it’s a soft bathrobe for your little one. Our bathrobes all come with a hood to keep your mini’s head warm and dry, a snap button for a snug fit, and they’re made from the softest terry cloth to make your baby extra huggable. Will you go for a solid color with cute little ears on the hood, or for the jacquard Nijntje (Miffy) bathrobe? Sweet Velvet DreamsVelvet is hot right now! That’s why we designed the perfect velvet sleeping bag for your mini. Made for sleep and cuddles, this sleeping bag has removable sleeves — perfect not only for winter but also for autumn and spring. The TOG rating is 2–3, depending on whether you use the sleeves. All you need to do is choose your favorite color!

Oh dear, autumn and winter might not sound very appealing. It’s cold, wet, and seems endlessly dark. Your energy levels hit rock bottom, while your little one seems to reach new peaks—especially at night, when they’re wide awake and going through a sleep regression phase. Great! But pull yourself together, because here are 5 ways to make this winter unforgettable with your mini! Cozy Naps Together Yes, your energy is at -10, which is the perfect excuse to binge Netflix on your day off or take a power nap when your little dragon is also catching their midday snooze. When you both wake up, you’ll be refreshed and ready to enjoy some fun activities. The Christmas Show at Your Local Garden Center Say what?! It might not be the first thing you think of to do with a little one, but this is how I survived the last weeks of my second pregnancy with a toddler. Most garden centers start the festive magic in October — their usually dull setups transform into wonderlands filled with twinkling lights, cheerful music, magical fairies, whimsical animals, and lots of cozy vibes. So park your toddler in the cart and stroll around at your own pace. The Christmas village will quickly become your mini’s favorite spot. Bonus: grab a treat at the café — happy you, happy mini! Dancing in the Rain We adults think six times before stepping out in the rain, but little ones still see the magic in a rainy day. Let your mini put on their rain boots and a waterproof suit, and go splash in puddles together. The look on your baby’s face will be pure gold. Winter Walks Nothing beats fresh air for your little one. So bundle your baby in a carrier, slip on comfy boots, and head outside for a walk. It might sound boring, but it’s truly refreshing and a huge energy boost for you. Afterwards, you can cozy up on the couch with a warm hot chocolate. Cookie Time! Baking cookies together might sound chaotic — flour and batter flying everywhere, your mini zooming around the kitchen like a whirlwind. Luckily, pre-made dough is available at the supermarket, perfect for your little one’s short attention span. Together, you can shape, decorate, and enjoy delicious cookies in no time.

Bij Jollein op kantoor spieken we vaak ook even bij ons design team om het hoekje om te kijken of er al nieuwe designs zijn voor de komende collecties en staan we in onze handjes te klappen wanneer er weer een doos samples binnenkomt. Want hoe tof is het om een design tot leven te zien komen. Wij vroegen een aantal collega’s wat nou hun favo items zijn van de ‘New Chapters’ collectie. Janneke, inkoop, mama van Thijmen(10), Fenne(7) en Lize(6)"In de nieuwe collectie valt mijn oog op de Soft Waves artikelen. Een verfrissende collectie met net even een andere uitstraling, in frisse kleuren. En dan de nieuwe wikkeldekens Bear, echt een eyecatcher in de trendy bouclé stof." Cherèll, HR adviseur, mama van Sammie (1)"Mijn favoriet van de nieuwe collectie is het Grain Knit boxkleed in de kleur Wild Rose. Een heel mooi en dik boxkleed in een prachtige kleur. Aan beide kanten te gebruiken. Uiteraard voor in de box, maar ik heb deze het eerste jaar echt overal mee naartoe genomen. Zo kon mijn dochter altijd en overal spelen. Een echte aanrader!" Dorienke, product development, mama van Gaia (2) "In de nieuwe collectie spreekt mij de Dreamy Mouse lijn mij het meest aan. De dromerige wereld met bloemen, vlindertjes, bijtjes en de muis maken mij en mijn dochter van 1 jaar vrolijk. Het is juist zo leuk dat sommige producten zoals het koffertje en de wrapblanket de vrolijke all-over print hebben, en het boxkleed en de dekens 1 grote print bevat wat de wereld laat zien waar de muis leeft. Lekker wegdromen in deze fantasierijke wereld is dan ook heerlijk met de Dreamy Mouse." Emy, social media specialist, mama van Phlyn (8) en Philou (6)"Een slaapzak vond ik echt onmisbaar toen mijn kids nog klein waren. Heerlijk warm en na het wakker worden nog even knuffelen in het grote bed. En ik ben verliefd op de velvet slaapzak, zo zacht dat ik er zelf wel in zou willen slapen. En dan die nieuwe kleurtjes Olive Green en Wild Rose, love it!". De velvet slaapzakken komen in drop 2 dus stay tuned.

  From baby's very first bites to that very first bath: Jollein is there for all those special firsts with your little one. But there's one very special first that starts even before your baby arrives—during your pregnancy: creating a beautiful nursery! The nursery is where you’ll welcome your baby, care for them, and shower them with love. It’s also the place where your little one will drift off into sweet dreams. So, of course, you want to make this space as cozy and beautiful as possible!Maybe you’ve already started gathering inspiration, picked out a color palette, or even bought the first pieces of furniture. Once you have the basics in place, it’s time for the fun part: decorating with gorgeous accessories. From the softest bedding to a cuddly stuffed toy waiting patiently for baby’s arrival. From a cute changing pad cover to handy storage baskets. The Jollein collection is full of beautiful pieces you can endlessly mix and match. That way, you can create a unique look that perfectly suits your nursery. Stylist Elina is here to help you with some clever and creative styling tips! “What I love about the new Jollein collection is how calm and timeless the color palette is,” says Elina. “Shades like Olive Green, Wild Rose, and the neutral tones Nougat and Oatmeal work beautifully in any nursery. And because these colors come back in lots of different products throughout the collection, mixing and matching becomes super easy!” “You can really play around with this in the crib, since you're working in layers there. For example, pair the Twig fitted sheet with the gorgeous Grain Knit blanket in Oatmeal. The My Tiny Miracle top sheet is a subtle and sweet addition to this set—when you make the bed, you can fold the edge over the blanket to reveal the lovely message. Complete the crib styling with a beautiful canopy. My personal favorite colors for that are Olive Green and Nougat—they add a soft and stylish color accent to the space.”   Matching or Mixing? You Decide! “If you want to create a sense of calm in your nursery, it helps to make ‘links’ between different products. If you choose a knitted blanket, for example, you can find a matching changing pad cover and storage baskets in the same color at Jollein.” “Prefer a bit more boldness in the room? Go for a playful mix of colors or choose a standout print like Retro Flowers or Adventurous Animals. The sweet Dreamy Mouse print is also absolutely adorable—for baby boys and girls alike! And with the matching accessories, like the fun suitcase set, you can bring the print to life throughout the entire room.” Enjoy Every Step of Creating Your Dream Nursery Would you like even more inspiration and guidance? Elina walks you through every step of designing your dream nursery in our helpful Nursery Styling Guide.  With Jollein’s collection, you can turn your baby’s room into a dreamy haven for both you and your little one. The soft tones and charming prints create a soothing and stylish atmosphere. Whether you love a classic look with natural tones or prefer a playful vibe with pops of color—Jollein has the perfect accessories for every style. Discover the full collection and create a nursery you’ll fall in love with, day after day. Together with stylist Elina, you’re all set to make it magic.

Oeh spannend! Jouw kleintje is er eindelijk en nu komt het moment van het eerste badje eraan. Thank goodness dat de kraamhulp er nog is, want hoe moet je anders weten hoe je dit aanpakt. En dan het aankleden, meine gute, je bent bang dat je die kleine vingertjes en teentjes iets aandoet, zo klein is alles! Maar geen zorgen, met de juiste handelingen gebeurt er niks en kun jij genieten van deze eerste momentjes met je bébé.1. WarmteAls baby’s ergens een hekel aan hebben, dan is het wel kou. En ‘who can blame them’, want wij houden er ook niet van om in de winter uit ons behaaglijk warme bedje te stappen in een koude slaapkamer. Zorg dus dat het kamertje lekker warm is en verwarm de badcape tijdens het badderen fijn met een kruikje zodat de overgang van het badje naar het afdrogen niet zo groot is.2. Snel en efficiëntZorg dat je alles wat je na het badje of het wassen nodig hebt, ook al klaarlegt. Dus dat super duper leuke outfitje, een fris luiertje, wat crémepjes, hydrofiele doeken en een badcape. Zo kun jij alles na het badderen als een soort geroutineerde ninja doen zodat het daarna relaxte knuffeltijd is. En hierbij is de uitdaging: maak het zó comfy dat je kleintje niet verdrietig wordt. 3.VermaakAls je kleintje wat ouder wordt kan het verschonen van een luiertje en het aankleden van je mini echt een hele sport zijn. Ze zouden het moeten toevoegen aan de Olympische Spelen, want wauw, ik wist niet dat het zo erg was om verzorgd te worden. Draaien, krabben, slaan, wegrennen, ze doen het allemaal. Zorg dus dat je afleiding hebt in de vorm van een speeltje een pak billendoekjes, whatever, alles om te voorkomen dat je voor 07:00 ‘s ochtends al het gevoel te hebben dat je er een marathon op hebt zitten.4. Comfy and soft essentialsNiets is fijner dan gepamperd te worden. Dat vinden baby’s ook. Haal daarom de juiste essentials in huis om het spa momentje met je mini zo comfy mogelijk te maken. Kies voor het zachtste hydrofiel, een badcape van een rijke badstof stof en een aankleedkussen die lief is voor het gevoelige huidje. Zo is je mini blij en jij blij. 5. GenietHoe pittig het soms ook kan zijn, probeer toch te genieten van deze momentjes. Je bébé is nu nog zo afhankelijk van jou en het is de perfecte smoes om dat heerlijke lijfje eens uitgebreid te knuffelen en eens even ongegeneerd in die spekjes te knijpen. Want voor je het weet zijn ze zo groot dat ze zelf onder de douche springen en hun eigen outfitjes uitkiezen. Ben jij nog op zoek naar de perfecte essentials om je kleintje lekker te verwennen tijdens jullie spa-momentjes? Shop alle caring moments musthaves in onze webshop. En ik kan je beloven dat wij ervoor hebben gezorgd dat deze momentjes very comfy zullen zijn met de zachtste stofjes en handigste items.

Some parents love it, others find it incredibly nerve-wracking: giving your baby their very first bath. After all the instructions from the maternity nurse, you just go for it and hope everything goes well — and most of all, that your little one doesn’t cry. We asked three moms to share their first bath stories. Do these sound familiar to you? Marlien (35), mom to Charlie (2) and Jens (1)“The first few days you were here, I couldn’t stop sniffing you — your hair, your neck, your tummy, your mouth, everything smelled like you. That’s why I was nervous to bathe you for the first time — would you still smell as lovely afterward? I didn’t want that soapy scent; I wanted your own unique smell. That first magical bath moment... you loved it. No soap, just a soft washcloth. You floated in the warm water, yawned a lot, and were completely relaxed. I dried you off with a large muslin cloth, dressed you in a clean outfit, and you still smelled just like you — perfect!” Liset (39), mom to Jill (7) and Ruby (2)“Ruby spent a month in the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) in Groningen. When I was finally allowed to bathe her, she still had a central line, a regular IV, a feeding tube, and was hooked up to a heart monitor. Only the monitor could be briefly disconnected — the rest came with her into the bath. She was still so fragile and tiny, weighing less than 2 kilos and bearing a large scar on her belly. Despite everything, she really enjoyed her first bath. I placed a muslin cloth over her body — it’s said to give a sense of security. After about ten minutes, I dried her off and dressed her in a pre-warmed onesie. By then, I’d become pretty skilled at reconnecting the heart monitor. Then I fed her through the tube, and she fell peacefully asleep.” Anna (31), mom to Otis (2) and Seff (3 months)“So much came at me when Otis was born. He was so unique and smelled so good. I didn’t feel the need for a bath anytime soon. But of course, it was nice to practice with the maternity nurse. I remember being so nervous about changing him — those tiny toes and fingers! So the idea of putting him in the bath felt overwhelming. But when I saw how much he enjoyed the warm water, I relaxed too. Then came the stress again when I had to dress him and he was a little less happy, haha

You know how it goes… You just want to have a little rant or ask how to survive your first vacation with your little one, and suddenly you get an entire essay of unsolicited advice and tips. Your own mother usually tops your mother-in-law in that department. But once you’re actually on holiday, you realise that some of those tips turn out to be surprisingly useful. We’ve listed six of them for you: 1. Washcloths to goDid you know it’s super handy to wet some muslin washcloths, pop them in a sandwich bag in your cooler or a container with a mini ice pack, and use them to wipe sticky faces, grubby hands, or cool down your little one on a hot day? Super sustainable and much nicer than most wet wipes, which dry out in the heat and are often unsuitable for your baby’s sensitive face. 2. Ice, ice, baby!Did you know that babies from 6 months old can enjoy a refreshing ice pop? Just purée the fruit you’d normally use for a fruit snack, add a splash of water, and freeze it in ready-made ice lolly moulds. Tip: You can also take it with you in a leak-proof container — it melts into a slushy consistency, perfect for cooling down! 3. Splash time funNothing beats cooling off in warm weather — whether at home or on holiday. It’s super handy to use your regular baby bath, fill it with a shallow layer of water, and let your little one splash around. Fun guaranteed and your baby cools down nicely. No baby bath available on holiday? A large bucket or washing-up tub works just as well — that does the trick! 4. (P)oops!Did you know swim diapers only contain solid waste? A pee will go straight through. Which explains why the paddling pool is always warmer than the big pool… So make sure to pop on a regular diaper after swimming — otherwise, everything gets soaked in no time. 5. Keep it hot!Timing is everything! You’ve packed the car, you’re off to the South of France with your toddler and baby, and you hit a traffic jam. You know it’s going to take a while — great. But then you glance at the clock and realise your baby will soon be crying for a bottle. That’s tricky on the road. Did you know it’s super handy to always have a thermos with hot water with you? Perfect for preparing formula or keeping breast milk warm. That way, even stuck in traffic, feeding your baby isn’t a problem. 6. Breathe in, breathe outThere are so many cute summer outfits for little ones, but as your mum has probably told you countless times: go for airy fabrics. Muslin, linen, and cotton absorb moisture and are breathable — ideal for hot weather. On really warm days, a romper is all they need. Have you ever received unsolicited summer tips from your (mother-in-law) that actually turned out to be helpful?

It’s finally time! Summer has officially started and the days are getting longer again. We’re preparing for the warm days and getting ready for the long-awaited summer holiday. This summer, we’re heading out for fun family outings. You and your little one will enjoy the weather and relax during this special time. Spending a day at the beach with the family is definitely no chore, and Jollein’s products are perfect for it. It’s time for quality moments and enjoying each other. We’ve put together all the summer tips for you in this blog because Jollein’s lovely must-haves can’t be missed this summer! Let’s Go to the Beach!The first time with tiny feet in the sand — this experience is pure gold! Jollein has the best must-haves to make your beach day a success. Even the tiniest ones can join without worries. Bring our Moses basket to lay your baby in. It’s the perfect basket for daytime naps (under supervision), but also for exploring the world safely close to mom and dad. The basket keeps your little one safe and off the sand. During a sunny, warm beach day, it’s important not to place your baby in direct sunlight, so make sure you also have some shade. Hydrophilic SoftnessJollein’s muslin cloths are an absolute must-have during warm days. These cloths are always handy, no matter where you are. A muslin cloth is frequently used for babies, but often for toddlers too. You can use it as a towel, burp cloth, changing mat liner, or as a cover over the crib sheet or a play mat on the go. In short, a multifunctional cloth. These multifunctional cloths are made from 100% cotton and are extremely soft for delicate baby skin. Use the muslin cloths during feeding to gently clean your baby’s mouth without damaging their skin. We also have washcloths, which are essential for bathing. These handy cloths are a real must-have for your baby or toddler. Shop them in the cutest prints and mix & match the different themes—you can never have enough! Must-Have Summer Sleeping BagsA sleeping bag is indispensable for a baby or toddler because it gives a sense of security. Jollein’s summer sleeping bags are perfect for warm days. They have a TOG rating of 0.5, making them ideal for summer use. Shop the summer sleeping bags in muslin or jersey fabric. Make sure you choose the right size sleeping bag. We offer sleeping bags in various trendy colors and prints. Want to learn more about TOG ratings? Then read our blog. Need info on which size sleeping bag you need? Check out our FAQ page. On the Go!Finally! The days are getting warmer and summer vacation is just around the corner. This means you’re ready to get out and about with the kids! Your little one definitely won’t stay still on the go. You want them to be entertained and comfortable. The silicone toys are ideal for the smallest ones when traveling. Besides the silicone toys, Jollein also offers silicone tableware for on the go. The snack cup is handy for storing snacks for your little one. Thanks to the spiral opening, your mini can easily grab a snack without it falling out—perfect for when you’re out and about. The drinking cup is also a must-have. It’s perfect for little ones starting to drink independently, and thanks to its flexible silicone material, it’s unbreakable! Shop these items in various colors.

Where do you even start? You do a bit of Googling, ask your mom, your sister, your best friend—and of course, they all say something different. That’s where Jollein comes in. We’re here to tell you exactly which items truly belong on your baby checklist. Trust us, you’ll be using these from day one. Muslin Must-Haves You can never have too many. Large cloths, small cloths, washcloths, burp cloths—what do you really need? Large muslin swaddles are perfect for swaddling your baby, using as a changing pad cover, or as a light blanket. Small muslin cloths are ideal to place under your baby’s head while sleeping, for feeding, or as a towel. Muslin burp cloths and washcloths are great for mealtime, to use as a cuddle cloth, or during bath time. Make sure to stock up on muslin when you’re putting together your baby essentials. You really can’t live without them. Discover the softest muslin cloths in our collection. Blankets for Sweet Dreams Once your little one is here, sleep will become gold. Even a short nap feels like a win. Good bedding makes all the difference. In summer, go for a light blanket combined with a sheet. In winter, choose a blanket with a warm, soft lining along with a sheet. Read our tips on how to choose the perfect baby blanket, or browse our collection of blankets. Footmuff for Ultimate Cuddles Since newborns struggle to maintain their body temperature, a footmuff is a must-have. It keeps your baby warm and cozy while resting in the car seat, chilling in the playpen, or snuggling with you on the couch. It’s the perfect little cocoon. Take a look at all our footmuffs. Playpen Mat for Naps and Play Okay, you only need this one if you’re using a playpen. But if you are, then a playpen mat is absolutely essential. It’s super soft, easy to wash after any little accidents, works perfectly as a play mat, and fits beautifully into any interior. Stylish and practical. See all playpen mats in our collection. Best Basics in Town They may not be the most exciting items to shop for, but basics are essential. Think fitted sheets, flat sheets, and changing pad covers. You’ll go through these items quickly, so it’s smart to have a few extras. Want something more fun? Choose a cute print to liven things up. Browse all basics in our shop.

Yes, sometimes as a mom you simply have to improvise. Unplanned things happen all the time, and you have to fix them right away. Like that explosive diaper your little one decided to produce while you were sitting on your in-laws’ brand-new couch, or that time you went to the toilet for just a second and your toddler decided to ride the baby like a pony through the living room. You laugh about these hilarious moments at the dinner table, but… there are also a few things you don’t share with anyone. 1. Oh, did he call? I didn’t hear a thing!Some babies are champion sleepers from six weeks on, leaving you wondering what your friends are even talking about when they complain about being exhausted. But then there are the bad sleepers — or rather, tiny night owls — who have mastered the art of waking up exactly when you’ve just fallen asleep. Pure torture. They’re thirsty, they need a cuddle, or they simply want to snuggle in your bed. After what feels like the 376th consecutive night where you seem to be the only one in the house hearing your baby cry, you nudge your partner and say it’s their turn — you’ve supposedly already gotten up three times. Hey, you deserve a full night’s sleep too sometimes. 2. You used to cringe at this — now you do it yourselfRemember when you were little, visiting grandma, eating chocolate, and your grandma wiped your face with her own spit? Disgusting, right? Well… it happens. Before you even realize what you’re doing. You’re walking to daycare, newborn in the car seat on one arm, diaper bag over your shoulder, and your toddler holding your other hand — the same toddler who had to have chocolate spread on his bread this morning. You glance at him before walking in and see those chocolatey corners of his mouth. You clean it up quickly — because no way is he going inside like that — and yep, you did exactly what you used to find gross. Oops. 3. Honestly… you’re just too tired for thisReading bedtime stories… sounds amazing, right? Your kids freshly bathed, smelling wonderful in their pajamas, holding their favorite stuffed animals, snuggled up next to you, their chubby little hand on your leg, listening to a magical story. Unfortunately, reality isn’t always that picture-perfect. Your oldest is busy perfecting her somersault, your toddler has the attention span of a goldfish and is already holding the next book, and your newborn, who was just asleep, is now screaming the house down. So yes, storytime might get cut a little short — those promised 10 minutes easily turn into 3. 4. No sweetheart, I have no idea where your slime wentThis one… you have to experience to understand. Kids all have their favorite toys — makes sense. But why do they never prefer those beautiful Pinterest-worthy wooden blocks you bought for €100 at that trendy concept store? Instead, they’re obsessed with clay (who invented that stuff?) or worse… slime. After scraping dried bits of clay off the floor for the tenth time and peeling slime off your freshly painted ceiling — leaving stains, of course — you’ve had enough. Both mysteriously “disappear” into the trash can. 5. Wow honey, that was such a beautiful songYour daughter loves putting on shows — the full performance package. Dancing, gymnastics, theatrical acts — but her favorite? Singing. And while she has many talents… let’s just say singing isn’t one of them. Honestly, two cats fighting sounds better than what comes out of her mouth. Still, after every performance, you clap like a proud mom and tell her how beautifully she sang. Because yes, that’s what moms do.
