4. Choose an adaptable scheme
The colour scheme in this nursery designed by studio.skey is great if you want the room to grow with your child. The pale blue walls and soft green drawers will continue to appeal to them as they get older, and can be teamed with other accessories in different hues.
If you’d like a more long-term scheme for your child’s room, veer away from bold and gender-specific colours and go for something that would work for any taste and at any age.

3. Help your little one to tidy their room
It pays to think long term when designing your child’s first room, as, before you know it, babies grow into toddlers. So consider how the room will evolve as your tot becomes more mobile.
Include some surfaces for drawing, higher shelves for storing things out of reach, and lower storage for your toddler to access easily. The cubbyholes under the window in this cute space designed by Bean Interiors are perfect, as the child can pull out the baskets and play, then quickly stow them away again at the end of the day.

2. Include storage and surfaces
It’s helpful to have as much storage as possible in your baby’s room, as you’ll need to stow away all sorts of kit, including babygrows, vests, nappies and muslins. Drawers are most helpful for storing these little items, and a low, wide cabinet like this in a room designed by Indie & Co has the added benefit of including a useful contained surface.
The wide area allows the parents to dump things on top while juggling baby’s changing time, while pegs above are ideal for hanging up items that need to be grabbed quickly.

1. Make bedtime easier with a rocking chair
When you’re choosing furniture for a nursery, it’s important to think about comfort – not just for your baby, but for you, too. After all, you’re going to be spending quite a lot of time in there, nursing, reading and helping your baby off to sleep. The designers at KERV Interiors had this in mind when creating this cosy room.
A comfortable chair is located in prime position beside the cot and near the window, and a rocking motion is great for relaxing the baby. They’ve also included an attractive floor lamp, which is perfectly placed to illuminate evening storytime sessions.

If you want your child to love reading, it could be a good idea to make books part of their lives from a very early age. A shelf like this one in a nursery designed by Mia Felce Interiors helps to show off the lovely covers of the various titles.
By making the books attractive, the child might hopefully find what’s inside equally appealing. And, if not, at least you’ll have a stylish place to display your baby’s things.
