Nothing is more precious than bringing a new child into the world. For veteran parents, you probably already have a good idea as to what to expect, but for those new parents out there, designing the perfect space for your child can be both rewarding and a little nerve wracking. From what crib to buy, or where to position it, there are many variables that go into building a nursery. Without a doubt, you will want to ensure that your child is as comfortable and safe in their new room as possible, so here are a few suggestions as how to go about designing your baby's room.
- Keep it simple and fun: Your first instinct may be to overcompensate due to sheer excitement, but resist this urge! You can make the room functional, but still cute. Try not to overdo it with blinding colors and an excessive amount of accessories so you won't have to redecorate every few years as they grow up.
- Keep it cool and quiet: Use heavy rugs to absorb sound and install heavy curtains to keep the room both cool and dark if you want to keep your baby asleep longer. This is because if your baby is sleeping at night, you will be sleeping, which makes everyone happier in the long run.
- Keep it adorable and safe: Feel free to pick that dainty, white crib for your newborn girl, or faded wooden dresser for your baby boy as long as they are the right size and serve the functionality you need for your nursery. Cover any extra electrical outlets, remove any potential choking hazards from the baby's reach and install anti-tip guards to all furniture to keep him or her safe and give you peace of mind.
