So, you’re looking to organize your baby room and baby related stuff—tips to organize the baby’s stuff, closet, dresser drawers, and more?
Well, you’ll find tons of similar advice all over the internet—folding techniques, storage bins, and drawer dividers. But, in reality, organizing baby items doesn’t always work like that.
The problem with baby stuff organization!
Babies grow incredibly fast! In the blink of an eye, those adorable newborn clothes will be too small, and you’ll be switching from 0-3 month sizes to 3-6 month clothes before you know it. 🐣
And it’s not just clothes—diapers are another story. One day you’re using newborn-sized diapers, and before you’ve even finished the pack, it’s time for size 1.
That’s why you need more than just typical storage solutions. You need a system that adapts to the rapid pace of baby growth. It’s not practical to keep everything lined up neatly as if it will stay the same for long.
An organized and flexible approach is key!
Let’s be practical—with all the baby chaos, you don’t want to be overwhelmed by the “unfindable” baby stuff! Do You?🙂↔️
Think about these scenarios:🤔
You received a pack of 3-6 month baby clothes at your baby shower, and you tucked them away for later. Now, it’s finally time to use them, but you can’t remember where you stored them! Frustrating, right? 🤦🏻♀️
Or, maybe you invested in drawer dividers and neatly organized everything. But fast-forward a few weeks, and now you’re bringing out new clothes. Where do the outgrown baby clothes go?
You bought diapers in bulk—smart move! But now you need a system to easily find the right size when you’re in a rush. It’s not as simple as just stacking them in a closet, right?
You can’t just check all the bins, drawers, and bags every time you need something! ⛔
I’m not saying drawer dividers, vertical storage, and storage bins won’t make a difference.
They’re absolutely genius investments and can help you get really organized.
But even with these tools, it’s easy to get lost in the chaos of baby things, especially when you’re trying to find something you stored months ago.
One simple solution! ✅
So, here’s my one simple but super fantastic solution: LABELS! Yes, Just Labels! 🔖
I don’t know why more people aren’t talking about this, but a simple label can save you so much time and frustration.
I think we should add baby labels to our baby shopping checklist that we make before the baby is even here!
With labels! You can organize everything—whether it’s in bins, bags, drawers, or closets—and just slap a relevant label on it. And boom💥! Job done! ✔️
The next time you need something, you’ll easily spot it right on the label without having to dig through everything.

Labels provide an incredible level of structure, making it so much easier to find things quickly. Instead of rummaging through bins, drawers, or closets trying to remember where you placed those 3-6 month baby clothes or size 1 diapers, a label tells you exactly where everything is at a glance. 😃
Labels create clear categories for your baby’s items—whether it’s clothes, diapers, toys, or feeding supplies. This kind of structure keeps you organized and makes it easy for anyone in your household to find what they need without having to ask. 💁🏻♀️
The best part?
You can easily find printable labels on the internet, download them, and print them right at home. 🖨️
Label everything from bins to drawers in minutes! And I’m going to show you exactly where to get them—stay tuned for that.

How does it work?
There are multiple ways to label your bins and make your nursery organization easy:
DIY Labels:
You can create labels at home using regular paper or cardstock. Simply cut the paper into the desired size and write the category name with a pen. Maybe use sticky notes! This is a quick and budget-friendly option!
Label Maker:
If you’re an organization enthusiast and often update your storage system, investing in a label maker can be especially useful.
Label makers allow you to create professional-looking labels quickly and easily, ensuring a polished and consistent appearance throughout your nursery.
But the best way! (Ready to print labels)
You can easily get ready-to-print label files and print them using your regular printer.
Simply order sticker paper online, then print the label files directly onto the paper. After printing, let them dry, cut the labels out using a paper cutter or scissors, and stick them onto your storage bins and drawers.
It’s that simple! ✨
I believe this is the best way to organize because it’s neat, cost-effective, and looks professional.
Using cardstock or regular paper and handwriting the labels can be time-consuming and may not yield a polished look.
On the other hand, investing in a label maker might not be suitable for everyone, especially if you’re looking for a quick and straightforward solution.
Printing ready-to-print labels and sticking them on is by far the simplest and most efficient method.
