How to Winter-Proof Your Baby’s Clothing and Carrycot  

Brr…it’s cold outside! But while you’re grabbing your gloves and woollen cap, we understand that preparing your precious little one for their first winter can be a bit of a puzzle. You want them to be warm enough while outside, of course, but you don’t want them overheating once you’re at your indoor destination. But don’t worry! We’ve got your back—and front, sides and bottoms-- of your little family covered.

The perfect cocoon for traveling 



First, let’s talk about the carrycot: your baby’s cosy and comfy mode of transportation both on wheels and off. If there was ever a perfect warming accessory for your baby’s pushchair, it’s the Joolz footmuff. Made from the softest, high-quality and easy-to-clean fabrics, it keeps baby cocooned safely and comfortably while also looking stylish in a variety of matching colours. So easy to attach to your Joolz pushchair seat, that you’ll be ready for whatever winter brings within seconds.

Bundle up against the cold 



The ultimate soft-landing? Our 100% organic and Fairtrade cotton sheets and blankets. Especially when it’s chilly, pairing our Perfect fitted sheet, Sweet Dreams flat sheet and Cloud Soft blanket is an excellent way to keep baby warm and content. And all available in soothing, complementary colours for the sweetest dreams. But we’re not done yet: parents will be just as happy with this bedding, because it’s so easy to clean. (Come on, who doesn’t stan machine-washable baby items?! We thought so.)

Shelter from the storm 



Winter often means one very wet, very annoying reality: rain and other precipitation. That’s why we developed a rain cover. that is specially designed for each Joolz pushchair. These are all easy to attach to their respective pushchairs and will keep baby dry and feeling secure, since they’re not too bulky and don’t blow around in the wind like so many other rain covers.

Comfortable outdoors and indoors 

When it comes to dressing your baby for winter outings, there’s one keyword you need to remember: layers. We love a base consisting of a soft, moisture-wicking layer made from gentle materials that are good for baby’s sensitive skin, like organic cotton or bamboo that also help regulate body temperature. Another tip: try adding a warm sweater or fleece jumpsuit—both things that are easy to remove if it’s too warm indoors. A cosy insulated outer layer is unmissable—bonus points if it’s easy to clean for those more active kiddos—and you can usually replace this with a lightweight blanket or thermal cover once inside. Finally, don’t forget the hat! Just like us adults, babies lose a lot of their body heat through their heads. A snug-fitting, soft beanie made of fleece (or if you’re feeling fancy, merino wool) is a must. 

 

Preventing overheating 

Finding the perfect temperature for your little treasure is something we’ve all been through. The goal is comfy warmth with no chance of overheating. Thankfully, it’s quite easy to recognise signs of discomfort. Sweating, redness or sometimes straight-up fussing are things to look out for. You always want your baby to have enough wiggle room to move freely, and you don’t want to bundle them so tight that their circulation is affected. So, use clothing wisely, level up your layering skills and all will be well. 

Alright, winter. We’re ready for you. With these important tips, baby’s first cold season is destined to be a success.
