Your baby won't have a blanket or duvet for quite some time — so their sheets are the star of the bed! We love to dress up a crib with punchy patterns and soft fibers to make baby's bed not only super stylish, but also comfortable and safe. As always, follow safe sleeping habits as outlined by the American Association of Pediatrics and never use loose bedding, blankets, toys, stuffed animals, or crib bumpers in baby's sleeping space. A sleep sack or wearable blanket, fitted crib sheet, and a firm mattress is all that should be in baby's crib. And that's why we say you should go ahead and splurge on your sheets.
As soft and comfortable as their sheets for adult-sized beds, Brooklinen's 300 thread count crib sheets are made of 100% cotton in a sateen weave. They're perfect for gender-neutral nurseries — no pink florals or baby blues here.
If your baby is fussy at night, it might have something to do with stuffy temperatures. Enter: SlumberCloud's NASA-approved, temperature-regulating Outlast® technology, which keeps the fibers cool and makes better sleep easy.
We discovered Copper Pearl earlier this year and are obsessed with their fun patterns and trendy prints that carry over from sheets and bath towels, to burp cloths and bibs. Your modern nursery will look oh, so chic with Copper Pearl in the crib.
Linen wears into a super soft material over time, and sheets are no different. Plus, with the rate at which you wash your crib sheets (because of spit-up, pee, etc) you'll have these linen crib sheets in the softest of soft conditions in no time.
Parachute's popular crib sheets are made of 100% European flax and are great for cold or warm sleepers.
We love aden + anais for their super soft muslin receiving blankets and their cotton muslin crib sheets are just as high-quality as you'd imagine.
Keeping baby's temperature regulated means they'll sleep better — and muslin is perfect for just that. Keep baby warm in the winter and cool in the summer with these airy, whimsical crib/toddler sheets from aden + anais.
Sateen isn't just for adults: The silky smooth material is available for your little ones, too, and Naturepedic's take on the fabric comes with the added benefit of being fully organic. The 100% cotton construction—that's a 300 thread count—has been vetted by GOTS and even has a Greenguard certification.
For chillier climates (or just an extra layer of warmth for winter nights), the best choice is flannel. Coyuchi's crib sheets feel ultra luxurious, thanks to their brushed material and high thread count. Made in Portugal from organic cotton, they're definitely built to last—just be sure to wash them on delicate for best results.
Good luck getting any sleep with these adorable crib sheets, that double as photo backdrops, in your home. Made by moms, obviously, these whimsical patterns will have you snapping photos of your baby well past bedtime.
Don't worry — they're not just for looks. Rookie Human's crib sheets are 100% cotton sateen and 230 thread count. Perfect for tiny humans. Bonus: They're packaged to be gifted. No wrapping paper necessary.
This innovative design saves parents the hassle of digging into the base of the crib to remove used sheets from the crib mattress for washing. Instead, just zip the top portion of the sheet off.
There are different options in six different colors and patterns, so you can bring home additional zip-on sheets to make the changing process quick and easy.
Posh Peanut has made quite the name for itself as the bamboo-viscose PJs front-runner. Their footies, swaddles, and rompers come in adorable patterns that are unique to the brand — and their crib sheets are no different! Why bamboo? It's super stretchy, sustainable, and dries quickly.
Plus, with dozens of vibrant colors and patterns (like leopard, dinosaurs, cactus, and florals), every parent is sure to find a unique pattern that complements their nursery.
BedVoyage Viscose from Bamboo Fitted Crib Sheet
If you haven't yet considered bamboo bedding, allow us to make the introduction: Hypoallergenic, moisture-wicking, and bacteria-resistant, this material is a great option for anyone in search of lightweight, healthier sheets.
Burt’s Bees isn’t just lotion and lip balm anymore. Their baby line is super impressive! With PJs, burp cloths, and crib sheets in a variety of fun and timeless patterns, we're totally on board with this brand expansion.
They only use 100% GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard)-certified organic cotton — so parents can rest assured their baby is sleeping on the safest of materials.
Newton, known for its breathable mattresses (yes, for real) also makes breathable crib sheets! What does that mean? Well, it means that they’re designed for superior airflow with open-weave muslin cotton. Plus, they're pre-shrunk, hypoallergenic, and they come in "mini" crib sizes.
