Even though you may have to endure morning sickness or a sore back, expecting a child is also full of exciting and fun aspects! One of the most exciting aspects is designing their nursery. If you are expecting a girl, you probably have a lot of ideas.
When you begin to set up and decorate the nursery, your dreams of what she will look like and how it will feel become more real. That’s what we love about Newton Baby!
We have ideas to suit any style for the nursery of your little girl.
When it comes to the nursery, design and functionality are equally important. Before we get into the rugs, rockers, and roses, let’s go over some tips on how to create a nursery that keeps your baby as safe as possible and makes parenting as easy as it can be.
How to Set up a Functional Baby Girl’s Nursery
Even if your baby’s nursery is adorable, it won’t be a place you want to spend a lot of time in if the room isn’t set up properly. With a few easy tips, you can easily create a beautiful space that is also functional.
If possible, invest in a standard-sized crib
It’s essential to get a crib that is safe and secure for your child. Your daughter may sleep in the crib for many years.
You might want to consider a Mini Crib if you are short on space. Your baby will likely outgrow it in one or two years. If you have enough space, consider buying a crib.
The crib will last your child for many years. A standard mattress can also be used to create a Toddler Bed, allowing for more sound sleep.
Selecting a Safe Crib Mattress and Bedding
The crib mattress and bedding of your baby are important for safe sleeping.
To ensure your baby girl has the safest sleep possible, keep all toys out of her crib. This includes pillows, blankets, and crib bumpers. Keep all crib bumpers, toys, blankets, and pillows out of your baby’s crib. Also, make sure that the bedding isn’t too loose.
When it comes to a safe sleep, the crib mattress plays a major role. Choose a crib mattress with a firm feel that will bounce back when you touch it. Firm doesn’t necessarily mean uncomfortable and hard.
Newton Baby Crib Mattress will keep your baby comfortable and safe for nights of sound sleep.
The mattress and mattress cover are both 100% breathable. This helps regulate the body temperature of your baby. If your daughter is inclined to roll onto her stomach during the night, a ventilator will reduce the risk that she might suffocate.
Newton Baby mattresses are 100% washable. Mold, bacteria, and allergens are no more!
Consider Convenience
If you’re thinking about baby girl nursery ideas, it is important to consider the convenience of your furniture for diaper changes, breastfeeding, and late-night feedings.
You can put a small table near the rocking chair so that you can keep your phone, coffee mug, or baby bottle on it without worrying about disturbing your daughter.
You should also make sure that you have all diapering essentials at your changing table. You do not want to leave your child alone, even for a moment. They might decide to roll…and jump off of the changing table.
Make it Easy To Clean
Babies are adorable but can also be very messy. Choose items that are easy to clean when choosing rugs and curtains, wallpapers, bedding, etc.
Choose a waterproof mattress pad that is also washable, such as Newton Baby’s water-resistant crib mattress pad. This product is available for both cribs and twin beds.
If you own a Newton Baby Crib Mattress or plan to purchase one in the future, be sure to keep a Crib Mattress cover handy. Zip off the dirty cover and toss it in the washing machine without missing a beat.
For the rest of your nursery, you’ll want to use easy-to-vacuum rugs and washable wallpaper. Choose furniture that is easy to clean or has a removable and washable cover.
Install Blackout Curtains
You may want to use blackout curtains in the evenings when it’s still light outside. You can darken your room and help your little girl learn to differentiate between daytime and nighttime without sacrificing your style.
Blackout curtains are available in a variety of colors and patterns. You can also add blackout liners on top of your existing curtains if that is what you prefer.
Plan For Storage
When you have a small child, storage is a must! Storage space is important, but it doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice design.
Consider what you will need to organize and store (clothes, diapers, toys, books, etc.). Choose storage solutions that match your decor. This will keep your room from becoming cluttered. Instead, it’ll stay nicely organized.
Consider Dual-purpose Furniture
You need to be creative when choosing furniture if you have limited space. It would be best if you looked for a table that can be used in multiple ways.
An ottoman that has storage can be used to store blankets and burp clothes while also providing a place for your feet. Dressers with changing pads can be used to store clothes and change diapers. A bookshelf is a great place to store both diapers and baby books!
Find the focal point
The best part of the nursery is your daughter. What else do you envision as the main focus of your greenhouse when considering the current baby girl ideas?
Many parents make the crib their focal point. However, you can make it into a reading corner or furniture that is meaningful to your family. Choose your favorite aspect or piece of furniture for the nursery.
Use Black And White
The color of a baby girl’s nursery doesn’t have to be pink. Black and white can be a powerful design element in your nursery.
Consider black and white florals, black and white stripes, polka dots, gingham, or modern black and White stripes with an accent color. Be creative!
