There’s never been a time where I’ve appreciated the life of a baby more than I do now. Having had a missed miscarriage and now being pregnant with my rainbow baby, I truly am going to treasure every moment I have with this baby (come September) – even the fussiness and sleepless nights! With that said, I am now paying more attention than ever before on the products I will be using around my baby-to-be, even down to his clothing!
That is why I am so happy to have found companies like Petit Bamboo who take great pride in the quality of their products – all the way down to the last thread! Super soft and super cute, I cannot wait to cuddle my little in their bamboo clothing!

For Newborns and Toddlers (sizes 0-18 months)
THE PRODUCTS:
Petit Bamboo is an Australian-owned fashion label that takes baby’s comfort seriously. All of their items are made from 95% bamboo blend, which means that they are exceptionally soft, gentle on baby’s skin and hypoallergenic. Bamboo fiber is also naturally thermo-regulating, anti-bacterial and sustainable, making their products as clean and safe as can be hoped for!
Petit Bamboo is also BSCI-compliant (www.bsci-intl.org) and fairly traded. Petit Bamboo supports the global fair trade movement and believes in fair wages and ethical treatment of workers and condemns sweatshop trade. Petit Bamboo believes in caring for the earth, mother and baby, all in one.
Available in sizes 0-18 months and in Grey Cross, Pink Floral and Blue Space designs, you can find everything from Wraps (aka, swaddle-type blankets) and Lovies, to Sleep Bags, Short and Long Sleeve shirts and Harem Pants – all of which are great to wear as pjs or as play clothes all day long.
HEALTH-WISE:
Petit Bamboo is an Australian-owned and designed baby wear label made from 95% bamboo blend. Bamboo fabric is often considered eco-friendly as bamboo requires little water for growth. However, this also largely depends on whether the fabric is chemically or mechanically made. Fortunately, 100% of Petit Bamboo baby wear is made using the mechanical method, which has the smallest impact on the environment, and is the most superior bamboo fiber commercially available.
Not only are all their products eco-friendly, but also safe for baby’s skin. Bamboo fiber is naturally hypoallergenic, anti-eczema and anti-bacterial. With Petit Bamboo, you can rest assured knowing that you are dressing your newborn baby in the highest quality natural fiber on the market.
Furthermore, Petit Bamboo is a member of the Chemical Free Community (www.chemfreecom.com) and believes in all things natural, sustainable and eco-friendly. Petit Bamboo encompasses a natural mother who takes baby’s comfort seriously.

FINAL THOUGHTS:
Petit Bamboo believes in caring for the planet, mother and baby, all in one. With some of the softest newborn and toddler clothes I have ever felt, it’s no wonder that companies are taking on bamboo as the next “it” material. I mean, not only is this stuff so silky and smooth you can’t help but want to cuddle up with it, it is also anti-bacterial, anti-eczema, hypo-allergenic and eco-friendly!
Plus, all of their clothing and materials are super breathable and perfect for the most hot and humid of climates – hello Texas summer! Their zippers, where applicable, are also super strong and you don’t have to worry about pilling or balling either. So yes, I agree the prices are a bit steep – especially when you have to convert the prices + shipping costs to USD – but you really do get what you pay for and with Petit Bamboo, you are not only buying cute products, you are getting the best quality for both your littles [skin] and for the environment!
Available in 3 adorable prints, I cannot wait to cuddle up with my little bundle this September in all of his amazing new Petit Bamboo wear. The only problem, I don’t know how I’m ever going to go back to “traditional” clothing again!
