10 Tips on Setting up your New Baby’s Nursery.
Tuesday, August 18th, 2009 | tips | No Comments
Every new mother wants a beautifully decorated custom nursery for her newborn to come home to. Decorating a nursery for your new baby is fun but it can also be stressful. Follow these 10 tips to help you get started!
1. Set up a crib. Make sure the crib meets safety standards - bars should not be wider than 2 3/8 inches apart and there should be no gaps between the mattress and the frame. Look for a crib with rails that you can lower, so you can pick up the baby easily.
2. Get a mattress and linens for the crib. Make sure the mattress is firm and fits the crib snugly.
3. Consider purchasing a bassinet for newborns, who often like the cozy fit. A cradle or bassinet is also nice for keeping in your room the first month or so.
4. Set up a changing table with a pad cover. Make sure the changing table has a safety belt and a guardrail to protect your baby. Purchase a couple of waterproof pads to place on top of the changing pad for easy clean up of accidents. This way you don’t have to wash the entire changing table cover.
5. Stock the changing table with clean diapers, wipes, baby powder and baby creams within easy reach. Keep a lidded garbage can and a laundry hamper close to the changing table for easy access.
6. Include a soft night-light or dim lamp in the nursery. Bright lights can leave baby wide-awake after midnight feedings and changing’s.
7. Hang a mobile over the crib to keep baby stimulated. Think about purchasing a cd player to play soothing music at naptime or bed time.
8. Decorate the nursery with favorite photos, quilts, stuffed animals (outside of the crib) and special family mementos. Adding baby’s name to a wall with cuttout letters is also a cute personalized touch!
9. Stock up on baby hangers for baby clothes. You will be amazed at how many clothes your baby will have. You can also purchase sized dividers. Many of the clothes you will receive will be for future use. This way you can divide them easily.
10. Consider a glider as a worthwhile investment for the nursery. A glider is safer than a rocking chair because it doesn’t have runners, which can pose a hazard to youngsters once they begin to crawl. Even after baby outgrows the nursery, a glider will be useful for bedtime readings.
