When setting up the nursery for baby it’s fun to select crib sheets. So, what are the best sheets for baby’s crib?
First of all, it’s very important to select a fitted crib sheet and not use a blanket or flat sheet over the mattress.
SwaddleDesigns fitted crib sheets fit standard crib mattresses and stay in place. They are designed with elastic all around the finished edges and have reinforced, sewn-in corners for a secure fit.
Do not use a flat sheet or large blanket as a crib sheet, because these items can become untucked and can become an entanglement and suffocation risk for baby.
The best baby crib sheets are fitted cotton crib sheets. SwaddleDesigns offers two types of fitted crib sheets – cotton muslin and cotton flannel.
Our flannel fitted crib sheets are proudly made in the Pacific Northwest with cotton grown and milled in the USA. Our flannel is brushed for softness and has a very soft and comforting texture that babies love. It is great for keeping your baby comfortable year-round, and flannel is also cozy in the colder months.
SwaddleDesigns cotton muslin sheets are made from soft, open weave fabric. Cotton is a natural fiber that is breathable and gentle next to baby’s skin. Muslin is quick to dry.
Some companies claim to make “bamboo” sheets. However, bamboo fabric that is soft to the touch is actually a man-made semisynthetic also known as viscose or rayon. Yes, soft bamboo fabric is really rayon, so don’t get bamboozled! You can read more about bamboo’s misleading claims on the USA FTC’s website.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends baby sleep on a firm and smooth surface, and to be free of loose objects to be a safe sleep environment. It's very important not to use any thick or extra soft padding between the mattress and the fitted sheet or on top of the sheet, because doing so creates a suffocation risk if baby rolls over.
Our sheets can be machine washed and tumble dried, so it’s easy to clean your baby’s bedding. Shop for your favorite look among our wide range of nursery themes, including earthtones, monochromatic, nautical, animal prints, stars, flowers, geometric prints and more.
At SwaddleDesigns we are committed to bringing you consistent quality products. We have over 20 years of experience providing both new and seasoned parents with quality, stylish essentials, and we are a trusted brand worldwide.
I love these washcloths! They are not too thick (which can make it hard to wash those tiny toes) or too thin (which just isn't great.) They are the perfect size and thickness. And, they hold up well over time.

Best Washcloths
We love SwaddleDesigns! My mom and I think they make the softest swaddling blankets (we ordered several for my daughter) and we love their lovies! The washcloth is no different. It's a very soft, nice washcloth. It's perfect for bathing and the only ones I used (we have other ones but I always grab for these). Definitely recommend these and all of their products if you want the softest things touching your little ones skin!

Very soft
Loved this brand. I have the burp clothes and the towel and I really love how soft they are. I got about four more towels from other brands as gifts, but I haven't used them because none can be compared to this one.

These are the best!
These are so soft- I already have about 6 in another color, just ordered 4 of these so I can do laundry less. They are super soft.
The others I have have been used for 11 months now and look as good as they did the day I opened them, are still soft, have no pilling or thinning or signs of aging and I can't think of a single complaint about them.
