I’m an aunt now! This is what I’ve been buying for my newborn nephew:
Name Puzzle Stool
Does it get more classic than a pine wood letter stool? I still remember mine. In fact, I think I still have mine tucked behind trapper keepers and Sanrio pencil boxes in my childhood room.
Christofle engraved cup
Yeah, yeah, it's old school. And honestly, I never would have gone for this but my little brother bought my daughter a silver spoon so I needed to up my gift game. And tbh, we use my father-in-law's silver baby spoon regularly. The cup is monogrammed, and beautiful, as you would expect from Christofle.
Oli & Carol rattle teether
Honestly, this is the company that inspired my brand. I thought they were doing something so fresh with their veggie teethers. I bought my daughter a broccoli chew toy. It's a Barcelona based company (I was living in Spain at the time) founded by 2 sisters / copines.
BabyBjörn hammock
Another classic. My kids loved this and so does my nephew. Our first flight with our daughter, we brought this and stored it in the overhead bin. Our Christmas dinner out at a posh restaurant, we brought the hammock and rocked our daughter to sleep with our foot under the table.
Petit Bateau kimonos
Can you ever have enough “bodies” for a newborn? With all those charming blowouts and stains, these are the workhorses of a new baby’s wardrobe. I prefer the ones with the snaps down the front so you don’t have to get it over a sleeping baby’s head. Petit Bateau’s cotton is also super soft, just like a baby’s head :)
