For the little details you will want to remember

Pacifier clips, soothing sets and first grooming pieces become much sweeter when baby's name is part of them.

A lovely option when you want to give something small, useful and personal without overthinking the gift.

Stokke Sleepi

Start small. Let the bed grow with them.

The Sleepi Mini gives newborns a cosy first sleep space. When baby needs more room, the extension lets you keep the familiar oval bed and simply make it bigger.

If you already know you want the full setup, there is also a Mini + mattress + extension bundle so you can have the next stage ready from the beginning.

A few simple reminders

Make the setup work for your home, not the other way around

You do not need to have everything figured out before baby arrives. A small, useful setup is a very good place to begin.

01

Keep muslins where you actually sit

One in the nursery is useful. One near the sofa, feeding chair or changing spot is often even more useful.

02

Do not buy every size in newborn

Mix a few newborn pieces with 0-3M and 3-6M so you already have the next size waiting.

03

Keep one outing bag partly ready

A spare outfit, burp cloth and changing basics already packed can make those first quick trips much easier.

04

Useful gifts are still lovely gifts

A swaddle, towel or comforter can feel very special when it is beautifully chosen or personalized.

05

Leave room to learn your baby's routine

You will quickly discover what you use all the time and what you barely reach for. You can always add more later.

06

Check the product guidance

For sleep, feeding, bathing and age suitability, always follow the instructions that come with each product and your healthcare professional's advice.

Good to know

A few questions you might have

Do I need everything on the checklist?

No. Use it as a reminder, not a rule. What you need will depend on your home, routine, feeding choices, climate and baby's needs.

What is a good newborn gift if I am not sure what the parents need?

A soft everyday piece such as a swaddle, towel or comforter is an easy starting point. If you want it to feel more personal, add baby's name or pair it with a small keepsake.

What can I personalize at My Little Thieves?

Selected baby comforters, burp cloths, soft toys, blankets, towels and accessories can be personalized. The available options are shown on each product page.

How does the Stokke Sleepi extension work?

You can begin with the Sleepi Mini for the newborn stage, then use the Sleepi Bed Extension V3 to create a larger bed when your child needs more space.

Where can I find more newborn products?

You can browse the Newborn Love collection for a smaller curated selection, or open the broader newborn collection when you want more choice.

Still missing a few things?

Come back to your list whenever you need.

Your progress is saved on this device, so you can keep ticking things off slowly and shop only what makes sense for you and baby.
