The First Weeks

There is a great deal to read online about what a baby needs in the first weeks and months. It is very easy to get lost in the flood of information, to start buying back and forth and to end up with things you never use. Before you buy, it is worth thinking through what is genuinely the best choice for your baby.

Anything that touches your child's skin directly should be made of 100% cotton. At Kenguru Gold we make our baby clothes from 100% organic, feather-soft cotton, which gives children the best possible comfort.

When a nappy accident happens, a wrap-over bodysuit is a real help, because you do not have to pull the soiled garment over your baby's head. An envelope-neck bodysuit is just as practical, since that one can be taken off downwards.

To allow healthy, free development of movement, it matters that you dress your child in clothes that do not restrict them.

Expectant mothers usually get a layette list from their health visitor, setting out how many bodysuits, sleepsuits, hats and other items they will need. They then start gathering the listed pieces from all sorts of places, but often without allowing for the fact that a baby will need changing again about three times a day after one accident or another. At that point a jumble of different colours and prints is not the most attractive combination. That is why we created our capsule collection at Kenguru Gold. Every one of our garments can be combined with the others, which simplifies the daily choice of clothes. You can put together a great many new outfits from just a few pieces.

On top of that, most of our products are double-sized, so children do not outgrow our clothes in two or three weeks.

That is why one of our most popular recommendations is the super multipack. This bundle contains almost every one of our products, so you get a feel for which ones you find practical and which you reach for day to day. From there you can build out the wardrobe accordingly.

If you would rather start smaller, it is worth looking at our multipack offers. Buying in a bundle is a much better way to get hold of your favourite pieces.
