Newborn Necessities

The basis for good temperature regulation

As a neonatal nurse, I see every day that newborns primarily need their energy to grow. However, they lose heat quickly, which can cause restlessness. This 100% merino wool set helps retain that heat without overheating.

I've put together this beige package as the ideal "first wardrobe." It includes the three most essential items for the postpartum period and the months afterward:

• The merino wool cardigan: A soft knitted cardigan that is easy to put on and take off for a little one.

• The hat: Indispensable in the first few days, because a baby loses most of its heat through its head.

• The woolen slippers: These stay in place and keep the feet at the right temperature, which contributes to better rest.

Why I choose this combination

• Non-itching wool: The fibers of our merino wool are so fine that they do not irritate sensitive skin.

• Practical: Merino wool is naturally self-cleaning; simply hanging it out in the fresh air is often enough.

• Includes luxurious gift wrapping: Because we believe in a warm welcome, you'll receive this set in our exclusive Moalie gift box. We'll carefully wrap it for you, so it's ready to give (or unwrap) immediately.

"In the 27 years I've worked with newborns, I've learned that calm often starts with the right materials. This wool breathes and regulates, exactly what a baby needs." – Daniëlle, Moalie.

The ruffled butterfly pants are made of a soft cotton blend that moves with your baby. The fabric feels smooth and soft against the skin, doesn't chafe, and offers plenty of room for a diaper or diaper pants.

The light background with soft flowers and butterflies goes with almost anything. The ruffled hem gives the pants that little something extra without making them impractical. They look great with a solid-colored romper, sweater, or merino wool cardigan.

Suitable from the first few weeks of life up to toddler age: as comfy pants over a romper, under a dress, or as cozy lounge pants for the couch. A true staple in your baby or toddler's wardrobe.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will a washable diaper fit underneath?
Yes, there's extra space factored in around the diaper. The fabric stretches without causing the pants to sag.

What should I wear these pants with?
Pair with a solid-colored romper or sweater in one of the printed shades, such as off-white, light pink, sage green, or lilac. A merino wool cardigan and Moalie booties complete the look on colder days.
