Minimalist Baby Registry

If your nursery doesn’t fit a full-size crib, the Origami Mini Crib from Babyletto not only is great for small spaces but also folds for easy storage. Tip: Be sure to get mini crib-specific sheets too (regular ones will be too big).

This mini-crib mattress includes a cover made with water-repellant technology so you don’t have to buy one separately.

This soft, stretchy and oversized swaddle has so many uses beyond just turning your new arrival into a baby burrito. Use it for swaddling, of course, but also as a makeshift playmat, a traditional blanket, a nursing cover and so much more.

These basic burp clothes are great to use during feeding and burping, but they double as versatile, absorbent cloths for whenever there’s a mess at hand.

A diaper bundle subscription ensures you’ll get just what you need so you can stay organized and won’t have to worry about storing tons of extra diapers. We love Hello Bello for their affordability, fun patterns and of course for keeping baby clean and dry.
