Build Your Own Newborn Essentials Set

A baby sleeping bag is a must for baby’s first moments: it keeps your newborn secure and nice and warm while they sleep.
Its full-length opening makes everyday handling much easier. Available in 2 sizes: 0/3 or 3/6 months, and in 3 weights: Velour, Mid-season and Summer. To protect your baby’s delicate skin, the fabric of Premiers Moments baby sleeping bags is made from 100% organic cotton and carries the GOTS and Oeko-Tex labels
How do I choose the right baby sleeping bags? For your hospital stay, go for the 0-3 months size (55cm). Its snug fit keeps baby secure and stops them slipping down inside the sleeping bag. In the first few days, baby cannot regulate their own temperature, so they need to be dressed warmly at the very beginning, even in summer.
Recommended quantity for the hospital stay: 2 baby sleeping bags 0-3 months, including at least one velour sleeping bag, except in summer, when you can start with a mid-season sleeping bag (lighter filling). Summer sleeping bags (no filling) are suitable for very hot weather.
In the days after you leave the maternity hospital, you will need to move on to the adjustable 3/6 months sleeping bag.

Essential for looking after baby in the middle of the night without having to switch on the glaring strip lights in your maternity room. It will also be very handy once you are back home!
Recommended quantity for the hospital stay: 1 night light

Did you know that a newborn's nappy needs changing 6 to 10 times a day? So to make life easier, choose your sleepsuits carefully!

Protect your clothes and baby's with muslin squares and bibs!

Thumb or pacifier? Only baby can tell you when the time comes!
The teats of our pacifiers are made from 100% natural rubber. They are much softer than silicone teats and fit baby's palate perfectly. Guaranteed BPA-free, PVC-free and phthalate-free, they are the ideal teats for baby's first moments.

Everything you need to make bath time a truly happy moment!
Premiers Moments hooded towels are super-absorbent and generously sized (75cm x 75cm). The hood covers baby's head as soon as they come out of the bath, preventing any heat loss. For baby's comfort and safety, they are made from 100% organic cotton GOTS and Oeko-Tex certified.
To make sure the bath is at the ideal temperature, nothing is more practical than a floating digital bath thermometer that shows the water temperature in no time.
An organic soap and a moisturising cream will help you give baby the perfect wash!
Recommended quantities for the hospital stay: 1 or 2 hooded towels, 1 bath thermometer, a soap and a moisturising cream (some maternity hospitals will provide all of these items, but either way they will be very useful once you are back home).

Most of these items will usually be provided by the maternity hospital.
However, they are essential for when you get home.
