Babies Nursery
When you are expecting it is best to draw up a list of everything you are likely to need to start with and stick with it – you will be tempted to purchase items not on your list but we would strongly advise against that idea. Stick to your list….
When making your purchases for the babies nursery you want to get the best cot and nursery chair – a rocking one is deal that your finances will allow. The reason behind a rocking chair is simple – it will help your baby to feel soothed and comforted and will help them to drop off to sleep more quickly, plus being more comfortable for the new mum.
There are lots of cots available on the market but ideally you want one with a lock on one side and a built in toy counting idea. Styles and colour schemes are entirely upto each individual person and we are not getting involved in that one.
Please try not to get a second or third hand one, if you are hoping to expand your brood in time then it really will pay for it’s self in the long run. The same with the Buggy and the High Chair and the Playpen. If you are lucky enough to have more children then the cost of things should be put into prospective. You will reap you money back time after time. East Coast is a very good brand the choice is up to you.

We would like to talk to you in this section about your little one’s nursery. The room should be airy and light that you choose for them. Try to keep it warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Colour schemes etc are entirely upto you obviously.
When choosing the Cot, we urge you to be very careful. This is an expensive item, please do not be tempted to purchase some second hand rubbish, or the cheapest one you can find. Although they can be cleaned this is a dangerous practice.
If the cost is too much for you to go out and buy a nice one from the shops, then put it on an account with one of the many companies that let you pay it back weekly, or maybe ask mum and dad or brother’s and sister’s to help out, but please purchase something decent. Your little one deserves it.
There is a wide variety to choose from one’s with toys built in the works, it’s totally upto you.
Then there are the linens. We sell everything you will need for the cot. It is always nice to walk into a babies nursery that has a matching theme running through it, with drawers for their nick nacks and maybe a co-ordinating wardobe for their clothes.
Be careful with babies lighting. Paper lights are dangerous, as are glass one’s try to be practical at the same time as pretty.
Your babies changing station should be located in this room along with the talcum powder, lotion and nappies. You need to get organized and put everything together, so when you are looking after your precious little one you have everything to hand in one room.

Babies Nursery
In this section we would like to talk about planning your babies Nursery. The room you choose for your pending new arrival needs to be thought about very carefully. It should not be a particularly sunny room in the summertime ( as it will get too hot ). Natural light should come in but a blind at the window is a great way to adjust the amount of light in the room. The temperature of the nursery should be comfortable, not too cool or too hot.
Colours are of course personal preference. As is wallpaper, emulsion,etc.
If you want to be practical about things a light colour on the walls of emulsion is always a good idea because that way you can just give it a light coat every now and then and keep it fresh all the time. Lots of new mums and dads like to do stencils as well.
When choosing a place for the babies cot – NEVER put it under the window - this is a very dangerous idea. As they get older and stronger ….need we say any more.
Make sure your baby will not be in a draft of any kind or a damp room. Be creative, let your imagination run free. It should be a sanctuary for your little one. A calming influence.
If there is room a nursery chair for feeding baby is a good idea. That is where you will be spending a lot of your time.
We will be talking to you soon about Baby Gowns
