Top Nursery Picks for Spring 2021

Hello Spring!

With any newness that comes into your life also might come other things like excitement, restlessness, and possibly anxiety.

It’s not all bad though, some newness is much needed and can bring lots of joy! So, let’s talk about that! The goodness and joy and positivity!

If you are into decorating or accessorizing your home according to the season then you just might want to read on!

I know that I love to spice up certain rooms in the house.. sometimes it’s just for no reason at all. Other times, it’s for the season or just because I’m kind of bored and need a change. 

So, if you are setting up your nursery for the first time, or are redecorating for the season, or freshening up just because – then I’d love to share with you some of my favorite nursery inspiration and my top nursery picks for Spring!

This nursery is beautiful!

It has calm colors that are totally welcoming and gender neutral for the win! P.S. totally see that circle mirror and snake plant… LOVE them both! 

This is Lindsey’s post on Instagram and notice her caption… she is talking about black out curtains! This brings us to my first Nursery pick for Spring – black out window covers.

1. Black Out Window Covers

Did you know that one of the top reasons why baby is waking up too early can be because it’s just too bright. To ready your nursery – you need a nearly pitch-black room. And the truth is that wood blinds or normal black out curtains are just not enough – because the sun can still pierce through the small openings. And guess what, at 5am or 6am when the sun is coming up – if the sun peeks through then baby will be up to. So, here’s to helping baby sleep longer in the morning because mama needs to sleep, too, right!? J

My favorite black out window covers that I actually use in my house are blackoutez! When I put these up, my daughter started sleeping in until 7am! 

2. Snoo Smart Sleeper

My next Nursery pick for Spring is the Snoo Smart Sleeper!

The Snoo Smart Sleeper makes my list for a top nursery pick for spring 2021 because of it’s modern look but also it’s utility!

It’s said that the Snoo Smart Sleeper boosts a baby’s sleep by “combining gentle rocking with soothing white noise and snug, safe swaddling.” It like a perfect total package for baby because it has the rocking, swaddle, and white noise! Plus, it definitely has style! The Snoo Smart Sleeper is sleek and modern looking!    

The Snoo Smart Sleeper would look really great in most nurseries especially those that blend natural colors together! Take this nursery for example. The circle mirror is kind of a theme with trendy nurseries! What I love is the natural colors, soft rug, natural woods – it’s all very calming.

3. DockATot

If you know then you know that I’m a long time fan of DockATot!

It’s washable. It fits inside the crib. And the covers are interchangeable! So, if you are looking for a great addition to your baby’s sleep and nursery – this is definitely one of our top nursery picks for Spring 2021! 

That DockATot is super fun because you can pick the cover that matches the nursery. For example, this nursery by Dana is black and white with hints of natural wood. If your nursery looks like this or you want it to – then shop DockATot colors that can compliment this color scheme. You can choose solids, white and black, or even make it fun and colorful!

P.S. the DockATot is portable! So, traveling overnight, mini-vacations, or sleeping at grandma’s just got a whole lot easier!

4. Ollie Swaddle

Okay! Every baby needs a great swaddle! And if you’re like me – you like to have a few backups in the nursery just in case one is in the wash or worse, lost! So, another top nursery pick for Spring 2021 is the Ollie Swaddle

These swaddles are not only so cute but their stretchy fabric allows for freedom of movement while still keeping baby snug and contained! It’s mentioned that the Ollie swaddle also helps babies in sleeping position, reduces sudden awakenings, and decreases irritability. 

So, if you need a good swaddle for your baby – definitely take a look at Ollie

5. Hatch Baby Rest Sound Machine

I wouldn’t be a sleep consultant if I didn’t recommend a good sound machine! The Hatch Baby Rest sound machine is another top nursery pick for Spring 2021!

This machine not only creates the perfect white noise, but it also doubles as a night light and Ok-to-Wake clock which is super helpful for healthy toddler sleep habits!

6. Aden + Anais Blankie

Every nursery needs and amazing blankie! And guess what? Aden + Anais has some amazing ones, which is why they made the list as a top nursery pick for Spring 2021! If you haven’t heard of Aden + Anais – this company has some truly remarkable products. Especially their blankies, which are just so soft that I would sleep with one if they made adult sizes! 

Here’s what they say about their blankets, “With four layers of cotton muslin, this snuggly baby blanket is perfect for newborns and is nothing less than dreamy. Our softest baby blanket yet, the dream baby blanket goes beyond cuddling, as it also makes a comfy surface to lay your little one on for tummy time, story time and much more!” - A+A
