Every new parent agonizes over the many decisions and purchases that need to be made before first baby is born: Home birth or hospital? . . . Which car seat is safest? . . . Breast vs bottle? . . . Do I really need the stroller with monster truck tires? I mean, last I checked our neighborhood has sidewalks!
But one choice that needn’t be nearly as difficult is the crib. From style to function, Stokke has thought of it all with its Home Collection for the nursery. The modular nature of the Home Collection makes it endlessly functional. The design of this system manages to be modern and classic all at the same time. Lastly, you can be assured that your little one will be safe and healthy; Stokke uses safe, high-quality materials and construction techniques.
So, let me walk you through the basics of the Home Collection…
I adore the breathable, romantic textile used for the Home Cradle. Enjoy swaying your little one to sleep in a safe, cozy place. An elegant wood frame allows you to have your newborn nearby at all times. For a more compact arrangement, the cradle bed can be placed in the Home Crib.
The Home Crib is the heart of this collection. Clean lines make it a great choice for any nursery. One of the most noteworthy features of this crib is its whimsical house-shaped structure. A canopy or tent can be added to the structure to create a light, protective roof over your child’s head while they rest. The crib transitions to a toddler bed and can eventually used as a daybed or play space!
The stylish and modern Home Dresser combines with the Home Changer to create a super functional changing table. A storage box hooks onto any side of the changer to provide a designated place for creams and wipes. A custom changing pad provides comfort and safety for your baby with cushions on all four sides. When your child is done with diapers, simply remove the changer to reveal a fantastic dresser than can be used for the long haul. (Hint: For small spaces, the changer can be mounted to the top of the crib!)
Yet another thoughtful feature of the Home Collection — the changer can be combined with the base of the cradle to create a small desk for your child! Truly, nothing will go to waste as your child grows. This little desk pairs beautifully with the adjustable Tripp Trapp Chair.
As you can see, the options and features of this collection are endless! Now, on to other decisions: pacifier vs no pacifier? . . . cloth or disposables? Do I request that my husband massage my feet every night, or just every other night? Good luck!
