Building a gender-neutral nursery is about more than just color palettes (although that’s obviously an important factor). The neutral theme also embraces natural elements and whimsical touches that create a subtle sophistication.
While dreamy design is at the heart of nursery planning, you still need baby gear that lives up to the hype. So, we scoured the internet for gender-neutral baby gear that can deliver on both fashion and function.
Here’s a look at our favorites.
evolur Raleigh Basic Glider Recliner Rocker


This glider is chic, comfy, and comes in several gender-neutral colors. The 360-degree swivel makes it easy to rock baby from any angle, and even reach for a bottle, or your phone, while doing so. Shoppers report that it's easy to clean and assemble and the best part is that this is a piece you can keep long after late-night feedings are finished.
Olive & Cocoa Lulu Lamb & Blankie


Loving absolutely everything about this Olive & Cocoa set. The soft, fuzzy sheep accompanies a luxurious ivory-colored reversible chamois blanket, a perfect addition to a sweet gender-neutral look. The blanket measures 30” x 36” and the set is gift-wrapped together in a handcrafted wood crate, complete with a darling ribbon. Even the packaging fits the bill!
Munchkin Infant Swing

Featuring Bluetooth connectivity, an easy-to-use touch display, and a neutral white and gray color scheme, the Munchkin Infant Swing allows you to comfort baby with a gentle rock and music of choice. The innovative swing blends nicely with any motif, making it a perfectly neutral addition to our list.
The Saatva Crib Mattress

Made for baby’s comfort and mom and dad’s peace of mind, Saatva's dual-sided baby mattress is focused on safety and sleep needs. The double-firm side is built for infants while the firm side is for toddlers. Simply flip it over as your baby grows and sleep needs change. Eco-friendly, organic, and non-toxic.
Magnetic Me Lovey


Meet baby’s first bestie. From the makers of Magnetic Me, an innovative brand that makes magnetic-fasten clothing, the Magnetic Lovey makes our list as the sweetest and cutest lovey for the gender-neutral nursery. And at just $20, it’s a more economical pick than some of the fancier brands. While there are traditional pink and blue themes to choose from, the brand created several neutral choices as well, including lovely lambs, sweet elephants, and cuddly koalas, each with a silky soft blankie attached.
Slumberkins Snuggler and Board Book


This unique addition made our list with its thoughtful ingenuity that steers clear of boy and girl tropes. Slumberkins is a leading children’s brand that is on a mission to promote early emotional learning. The brand created age-appropriate books with accompanying cuddly creatures — made of the softest fabric! — to help parents teach important emotional and social skills like stress management, gratitude, and conflict resolution.
Copper Pearl Crib Sheets


Crib sheets can truly elevate a nursery from “cute” to “designed.” But finding sheets with prints that aren’t gender-focused is harder than it probably should be. Copper Pearl makes the cut with a slew of dreamy neutrals that put the final touches on any thoughtful design. The fern print is our fave, but the brand has an excellent selection, with dozens of options ranging from geometric patterns to cactuses, animals, and more.
Loulou Lollipop Muslin Quilt


For softness that’s breathable and cozy, muslin is the way to go. These muslin quilts from Loulou Lollipop capture our hearts with over 30 gender-neutral watercolor prints. The large reversible blanket features four layers of bamboo and cotton muslin fabric that gets softer with each use.
White Loft Canvas Growth Charts

While we all wish babies would stay babies forever (well, maybe after they’ve mastered nighttime sleeping), sadly they do grow, and all too fast. Cherish the memories and milestones with this canvas growth chart. The handmade growth charts are made from cream-colored canvas and feature gray hand-printed lettering, a beautiful neutral addition to any nursery design.
Cassarokids


Sustainable brand Cassaro creates beautiful indoor playsets designed to encourage early development through movement, imagination, and physical play. Featuring an unfinished wood look with small pops of color, the collection is as gorgeous as it is functional. Made from eco-friendly solid beech wood and birch plywood, the materials for Cassarokids playsets are sourced from certified sustainable forests. Best of all, they only require an Allen key for assembly, which is included.
LectroFan Alpha Sound Machine

Help baby sleep soundly any time of day or night with this LectroFan sound machine. With a low profile and minimalist design, the LectroFan Alpha plays your choice of seven calming sounds, including a heartbeat, pink noise, brown noise, different kinds of waves and more. Bonus: It also comes with a convenient clip for car seats, strollers and more—have baby, will travel! Charges via USB.
Quince European Linen Toddler Quilt

This toddler quilt is just right: not too hot, not too cold. It's made from 100 percent European flax and comes in several gender-neutral shades like the sand color above, as well as light gray and white. It's soft and relativley affordable compared to other quilts just like it. We just have to try not to steal it for ourselves.
