Design Mistakes and Hidden Hazards You MUST Avoid for Your Newborn’s Room!- Ep. 7

How To Design Your Baby Nursery with Gabriella Milgrom

Hey there, mama-to-be! Ready to turn that Pinterest-perfect nursery dream into a safe haven for your little one? In this episode, we’re diving headfirst into all things safety.

First up, let’s talk VOCs (that’s volatile organic compounds for those not in the know). These nasties are hiding in everything from paint to furniture, giving off that “new” smell that’s anything but fresh. We’re sharing tips on choosing low-VOC products to keep your nursery (and your nose) chemical-free.

Got cords? Of course, you do. Lamps, humidifiers, monitors – they all come with those dangly temptations that babies love to pull. We’ll show you how to tame those wild wires and keep tiny hands safe.

And let’s not forget the classic culprits: exposed electrical outlets, loose drapery, and unanchored furniture. We’re breaking down why these common features can turn your beautiful nursery into a danger zone faster than you can say “toddler tornado.”

But we’re not all about the gloom and doom – promise! We’re also looking at some of those less obvious design features that could use a rethink. Crib bumpers? Out. Throws and pillows in the crib? Only for Insta pics. And those dreamy canopies? Let’s find a safer way to get that fairytale look.

Join us as we transform your nursery from hazardous to heavenly, one savvy (and slightly sassy) tip at a time. Because every mama deserves a nursery that’s as safe as it is stylish. Let’s get designing!
