A silk bonnet and a silk wool newborn shirt

Protecting the head is important Is there anything more intoxicating than the scent of a newborn? The warmth of another person’s skin against their own is a vital source of comfort and closeness for a baby – something that should be offered as often as possible. Alongside parents, grandparents and siblings also play an important role as givers of care and connection. From the very beginning, it is worth trusting your own way of being a parent. At times, this may mean going against general advice or expectations, if it feels right for you and your baby. With a newborn, and even with an older baby, it is perfectly right to retreat into your own gentle “baby bubble”, embracing the calm, low-stimulation atmosphere of home without pressure. In this space, it becomes easier to pause, enjoy the company of a contented baby, and nurture the unique bond between you. It is always good to keep the baby warm: if all of the baby’s energy goes towards staying warm, none will be left for growth and development. A significant amount of heat is lost through the head, which is relatively large in proportion to the body. This is why baby hats are not just charming accessories. They also protect the soft fontanelle, which is still open. When covering the ears, a bonnet can also help soothe your baby by gently softening the surrounding sounds. Our luxurious, hand-made silk bonnets with subtle decorative patterns gently and soothingly massage baby’s head. Headwear made from natural fibres is breathable and never feels too hot.
