Congratulations on your new arrival! As you're setting up your nursery, you're probably wondering how to keep it organized and functional. With all the baby gear that comes with a new baby, it can be a challenge to know where to put everything.
Here are some practical tips for organizing your nursery furniture and optimizing storage:
Choose the right furniture
When choosing nursery furniture, think about the needs of your baby and how you want to use the space. If you're short on space, look for furniture that can do double duty, such as a crib with built-in storage drawers or a changing table with shelves.

Declutter before you organise
Before you start organizing, go through all of your baby gear and declutter. Get rid of anything you don't need or use, such as clothes that are too small or toys that your baby has outgrown. This will help you to free up space and make organizing easier.
Use baskets and bins
Baskets and bins are a great way to organize and store smaller items, such as diapers, wipes, toys, and clothes. You can use them to create zones in the nursery, such as a diapering station, a toy area, and a clothes storage area.
Label everything
Once you've organized your nursery, label everything so that you can easily find what you need when you need it. You can use labels on baskets, bins, shelves, and drawers.
Maximize Vertical space
If you're short on floor space, maximize your vertical space by using wall shelves and hanging organizers. This is a great way to store books, toys, and other items that you don't need to access frequently.

Keep the crib clear
The crib should be a safe and comfortable place for your baby to sleep. Avoid putting anything in the crib, such as blankets, stuffed animals, or bumpers. These items can be a suffocation hazard.

Final Thoughts:
🤯 If you're feeling overwhelmed, don't worry! It's perfectly normal for nurseries to get cluttered, especially in the early days. Just take it one day at a time and don't be afraid to ask for help from your partner, family, or friends.
🐣 And remember, even the most organized nurseries will eventually succumb to the chaos of a toddler!
