Everything for your baby and toddler at home, all in one place. In our Home category you will find baby home essentials for every room: from children's tableware and bibs at the table to hooded towels in the bathroom, bedding and sleeping bags for the night, decoration for the nursery, toys to explore and handy items to make your home baby-safe. Below you can read what you will find in each category, so you quickly get to the right things.
Mealtime
As soon as your little one starts on solid food, the dining table becomes a place to explore. Under mealtime you will find everything for meals: children's plates with suction, kids' bowls, cutlery, cups, placemats and fresh food feeders. With bibs in fabric, silicone or with sleeves, clothes stay clean. Much of the tableware is made of silicone or bamboo and has a suction base, so there is less mess while your child practises eating on their own. Always stay with your child during meals and let them sit upright.
Bathroom and care
Bath time is a lovely moment together. In the bathroom you will find hooded towels, bath ponchos, bathrobes and wash mitts to keep your little one warm and dry after the bath. Under care you will find the everyday essentials: muslin cloths and swaddles, face cloths, brush and comb sets and nail scissors for the tiniest hands. Never leave a young child alone in the bath, not even briefly.
Bedding and safe sleep
Under bed textiles you will find everything for the cot and crib: fitted sheets, sheets, duvet covers, baby blankets and baby sleeping bags. For a baby in the first year, an empty cot is safest: on their back, on a firm mattress with a snug fitted sheet and in a sleeping bag, without pillows, cuddly toys, blankets or cot bumpers. Only use duvets and pillows once your child is old enough.
Nursery
In the nursery, a few lovely things create a nice place to play and sleep. Think of rugs in cheerful shapes, night lights and projectors for a soft glow, decorative cushions, garlands, storage baskets, laundry baskets and changing table baskets. That way everything has its own place and the room stays tidy. Choose a calm base and add a few cheerful accents in the colours or animals your child loves. A night light with a soft glow helps your child fall asleep and makes it easier to check on them at night without switching on the big light.
Play
Play is how a child discovers the world. Under play you will find toys for babies and toddlers: cuddly toys and comforters, rattles, teethers, music boxes and musical mobiles, pram toys, activity books and play mats with a baby gym. Choose toys that suit your child's age, and above all play together: for a baby, your face and voice are the very best toys.
Safety at home
Once your little one starts crawling or walking, they suddenly discover the whole house. Under safety you will find items to make your home baby-safe: corner protectors for tables and cupboards, in different shapes and colours and also transparent, 2-metre table edge protection, socket covers and door stoppers that stop little fingers getting caught in the door. Walk through the house at your child's eye level: that's the quickest way to spot sharp corners, sockets and pinch points. Baby-safe products are a great help, but never replace adult supervision. Check corner protectors and socket covers now and then, as children get more skilful and sometimes try to pull them off.
What do you need by age?
- Newborn: muslin cloths, a sleeping bag and fitted sheets, a hooded towel and a few cuddly toys or a rattle for when your baby is awake.
- Around 6 months: bibs, a suction plate, a kids' bowl and a spoon for first tastes, and toys to grab.
- Crawling and walking: corner protectors, socket covers and door stoppers, and a play mat to play on.
- Toddler: their own cutlery and a cup, a bathrobe, a cheerful rug and a night light for the nursery.
Tips for a happy home with children
Give things a fixed place, for example in storage baskets, so your child learns to tidy up. Keep small objects, batteries and cleaning products out of reach. Choose materials for bedding and clothing that are easy to wash. And make life easy for yourself: a changing table basket with everything for nappy changes within reach saves a lot of walking back and forth. Always keep a hand on your baby on the changing table.
Materials that suit young children
With baby products, you often pay extra attention to the material. Many of our products are made of soft fabrics such as cotton, organic cotton or bamboo, and for mealtimes of silicone or bamboo. Check the age indication and care instructions for each product, and choose items that are easy to keep clean. That way you enjoy them for a long time, and they are often still good enough to pass on to a little brother, sister or friend.
