$229.00

The Bubnest Baby Nest is a certified low-tox newborn essential, made from GOTS-certified organic cotton with OEKO-TEX tested components, designed in alignment with Australia’s latest infant product safety standards for supervised laying and play.

Made from excellent, non-toxic materials. GOTS-certified organic cotton cover and lining, OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified polyester filling.
Bubnest Organics products are designed in-house by an all-female team in South Australia and manufactured in China by a partner holding certifications such as ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, GOTS, OCS and GRS. The manufacturing facility has completed BSCI and SEDEX 2-Pillar social compliance audits, indicating adherence to labour, health and safety and ethical business standards. The brand openly shares certifications and sustainability commitments.
Bubnest uses GOTS-certified organic cotton, ensuring fibres are grown without harmful pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilisers and OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certified fibres, which are independently tested to be free from harmful substances. Products are designed for longevity and multi-use, with durable construction and multifunctional features to reduce waste. The brand produces in small batches to minimise overproduction and uses 100% plastic-free, biodegradable packaging. Sea freight is prioritised over air freight for products manufactured in China to reduce carbon emissions.
Bubnest supports new parents and postpartum mothers by designing products that promote calm, comfort and bonding during the newborn phase and by creating content and conversations that normalise the emotional highs and lows of parenting. The female-led, Australian-owned business collaborates with parenting communities and professionals, prioritises certified safe materials, is a member of the Infant & Nursery Products Association of Australia (INPAA) and follows and promotes the Red Nose Safe Sleep Guide to help educate its community on product and infant safety.

Product Reviews by Experts


The Bubnest Baby Nest brings the same certified material integrity to the newborn phase that the brand applies across its full range. GOTS-certified organic cotton on every layer the baby contacts, OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified fill independently tested free from harmful substances – for low-tox parents, that transparent certification trail from farming to finished product removes the guesswork around what is touching a newborn’s skin. The blue colourway is so beautiful, the material is soft and padded, a perfect safe space for your newborn all the way up to your bigger babies! We love to take it around the house with us, popping bub in a safe space wherever we are and it’s easy enough to pack into a car to travel! The calico storage bag is beautiful. The level of third-party certification at the manufacturing level – ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OEKO-TEX, GOTS, BSCI and SEDEX auditing – provides substantial and meaningful accountability in a market with widespread greenwashing. Intentional small-batch production to avoid overproduction, consolidated sea freight, and 100% plastic-free calico packaging round out a genuine sustainability approach that extends well beyond the product.


This baby nest is beautifully made. It’s so lovely to have a clean, cosy place to pop a bub during their awake time, and being able to carry it from room to room makes it incredibly practical. My newborn niece is so settled and content in it, and I appreciate that both the cover and the filling are made from non-toxic certified materials. This is a product that’s been thoughtfully designed and made to be loved and passed on multiple times.


I really value the conscious choice of certified organic and low-tox materials used throughout this product. New babies naturally love the comfort and security of a baby lounger, and I found this to be a beautiful, dedicated space to safely place baby down for supervised rest, changes and play while keeping them close. What stood out to me was that this is a mother-led Australian business that has clearly put a lot of thought into the materials, safety and longevity of the product. I also value their commitment to certified organic fabrics, plastic-free packaging and designing products that can be reused and passed on rather than quickly replaced.
