Which size to pick
Babies grow at their own pace, so go by height first and age second. Between two sizes, the larger one lasts longer.
| Size | Height | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Newborn | Up to 56 cm (22 in) | Up to 4.5 kg (10 lb) |
| 0 to 3 months | 56 to 62 cm (22 to 24 in) | 4.5 to 6 kg (10 to 13 lb) |
| 3 to 6 months | 62 to 68 cm (24 to 27 in) | 6 to 8 kg (13 to 18 lb) |
| 6 to 12 months | 68 to 80 cm (27 to 31 in) | 8 to 10 kg (18 to 22 lb) |
| 12 to 18 months | 80 to 86 cm (31 to 34 in) | 10 to 12 kg (22 to 26 lb) |
Pushchairs and car seats, tried before they are bought
Travel gear is the largest spend before a baby arrives, and it has to suit the car, the stairs at home and the person pushing. In the shop, pushchairs can be folded, lifted and wheeled around, and car seats can be tried in your own car in the bay outside.
Car seats must meet the safety standard of the country where they are used, and those standards differ, so the label on each seat is checked against yours before it is sold. Little Nest does not sell used car seats, because their history cannot be known.
- Car seats tried in your own car
- Labels checked against the rules where you live
- No second hand car seats, ever

How a gift list works
Most lists open about three months before the due date and close a month after the birth.
Choose
Walk the shop with a member of staff, or send a message, and pick what you would really use.
Share
Give family and friends the name on the list. They call, email or visit to buy from it.
Tick off
Each gift is ticked off as it is bought, so nobody doubles up, and you can see what is left.
Collect
Everything waits at the shop and goes out in one delivery, or is collected when it suits you.
Around the shop floor
Rails sorted by size, a corner for trying carriers and the counter where gifts are wrapped.
Notes from new families (example reviews)
The gift list meant forty relatives bought exactly what was needed, with no third baby bath. Everything arrived in one delivery a week before the due date.
Three car seats tried in the car outside before choosing one. The assistant spotted that the first one would not have fitted with the front seat back.
The bodysuits are still soft after months of washing, and the size guide was right. Bought the next size up without a second thought.
Questions parents ask at the counter
Do your products meet safety standards?
Every product is checked for the safety marks required where it is sold. Standards for car seats, cots, toys and feeding items differ from country to country, so if you will use something abroad, ask and the label is checked against those rules.
Can you advise on sleep, feeding or health?
Staff can show how a product works, but not what is right for your baby's sleep, feeding or health. For that, speak to your midwife, health visitor, nurse or doctor, and for anything urgent, phone your local emergency number.
Can items be returned?
Unused items with their tags can be returned within 30 days. For hygiene, opened feeding items cannot be returned unless they are faulty.
Which size should a newborn gift be?
If the baby has not arrived yet, 0 to 3 months is the safer choice, because many babies outgrow newborn sizes within weeks.
Do you sell second hand car seats?
No. A car seat that has been in an accident can be damaged in ways that cannot be seen, so only new seats are sold.
How does delivery work?
Orders arrive in 2 to 4 working days, and the delivery fee is shown at checkout. Gift list orders are held at the shop and sent together when you ask.

Tell us what you need and roughly when. Someone from the shop floor answers within a working day, either to open the list or to arrange a time with the pushchairs and car seats.
