# The non-toxic nursery

> Everything needed to set up a nursery without chemical flame retardants, formaldehyde finishes, or undisclosed synthetic materials. From the crib to the swaddle blanket.

Setting up a nursery means making choices that stay in place for years. The materials in the crib, the finishes on the dresser, and the textiles your baby spends twelve hours a day in all matter in a way that bedroom furniture for adults simply does not.

The picks here span five categories: a solid-wood crib built without formaldehyde-glue composites, an organic crib mattress free of chemical flame retardants, a GREENGUARD Gold dresser, wearable sleep sacks in organic cotton, and muslin swaddles from day one. Every piece passes the full disqualifier checklist.

Start with the crib and mattress. They anchor the room and drive every other sizing decision. Once those are on order, work through the sleep textiles. The dresser can wait until you know how much storage you actually need.
