Newborn Essentials Checklist: What Every Parent Should Have Before Baby Arrives

A baby sits on a bed surrounded by colorful blankets and plush toys, with educational sleep products on display. Sunlight filters through curtains.

Welcoming a new baby is pure joy - but let’s be honest, it can feel a little overwhelming too! Between excitement and preparation, every parent wants to make sure they have all the newborn essentials ready before their little one arrives. To make life easier, we’ve created a simple checklist of must-haves to keep your baby comfy, cozy, and happy.

Soft Bedding & Dry Sheets

 

A clean, waterproof dry sheet keeps your baby’s sleep area fresh and dry, preventing rashes and discomfort. Go for gentle, breathable fabrics that are easy to wash - like Tidy Sleep’s range of baby dry sheets.

Swaddles & Blankets

 

Newborns love being snug! Soft swaddles and lightweight blankets make them feel secure and warm while promoting better sleep.

Bath Towels & Napkins

 

Post-bath cuddles are the best when you have plush, absorbent towels. Keep extra face napkins handy for gentle wipe-downs after feeds.

Comfortable Clothing

 

Onesies, tops, and night suits made from pure cotton are perfect for your baby’s delicate skin. Avoid anything rough or tight-fitting.

Changing Mats & Diaper Essentials

 

A soft, washable changing mat is a lifesaver during diaper duty - especially at night!

With these basics checked off, you’ll be ready to welcome your little one with peace of mind and plenty of snuggles. 💕
