Following on from my recent run on nurseries, here are some top tips I have learnt along the way...
Don't forget bins. Easy to overlook but you'll need a wet bin, a dry bin and a nappy bin. Ideally with lids too - stops prying hands and also helps to conceal all variety of horrors!
Whilst it's tempting, don't just choose a chair for aesthetic reasons - if breastfeeding you'll be spending a lot of time in it, so factor this into your equation when making your choice.
Keep fabulously tactile fabrics to a minimum. Babies spew over everything (from both ends) so make less work for yourself by going for the practical option (on this occasion).
Window dressings - don't worry if you haven't got that blackout blind sorted. You never know how your baby will sleep until they've arrived and sometimes a bit of light can help create a more adaptable baby. No need to rush to blackout unless absolutely necessary.
Ensure your changing mat/table is at standing height. Trust me, your back will thank you.
