10 Baby Girl Room Ideas That Will Grow With Your Child

Change the crib for a bed and this pattern-happy room is stylish enough for an older kid. Featured on HGTV Canada’s Worst to First, the team transformed a lacklustre home for a couple who are expecting their first child. Note the drapery layered across the wall to create a cozy vibe that cheats the eye into thinking there’s a giant window behind it.

A mellow nursery boasting a curated selection of modern pieces has grown-up appeal. You can’t go wrong with a diamond-patterned shag, chic glider, graphic pillows and landscape photography. Incredibly, the dreamy BC living space, designed by Vancouver’s Angela Robinson, is actually situated in a basement.

Eschewing loud kiddie colours ensures your baby girl’s room will easily transition into big-kid status. Interior designer Alana Firestone did an amazing job on this sweet Toronto nursery, creating a neutral backdrop with faint chunky stripes and layering in lots of art and quirky touches, such as the bejewelled chandelier.

We love everything about this slightly jungle-themed designs that provide plenty of places your baby can look and interact with. Books also make for great decor. If a baby sees you reading, surround them with books at a height they can reach when they start crawling and grabbing.

Blue is polarizing. Some say it’s strictly for baby boys – but we disagree. The hot hue, which melds nicely with grey, white and pink in this mid-century modern nursery and home by the Property Brothers, has the stylish makings of an older girl’s room.

Glam accents and a fresh colour palette have us applauding this sweet nursery in Vancouver designed by Huong Nguyen, founder of the furniture boutique The Spotted Frog. So you’re not redoing your kid’s room every few years, choose a wallpaper like this floral version that isn’t too juvenile. Oh, and gliders aren’t just for nursing. This modern babe of a chair will look just as good beside a bed.

Want your baby’s room to grow with her? Then give the cartoon characters on the wall a break and opt for a timeless print. This flamingo design is kooky enough for a kid, but not too “out there.” The gender-neutral nursery designed by Toronto’s Jacquelyn Clark also has other fab grow-with-your-kid features such as billowy drapes with a fun pom-pom border and a tufted recliner.

Whether you’re unsure of your baby’s sex or simply want to avoid resorting to bright pinks for your baby girl, there are plenty of soothing unisex designs your little one will love, like this gem by the Property Brothers.

It takes chutzpah to go boldly dark, but we wouldn’t expect anything less from Sarah Richardson, who has also never been shy about the mix. Here, the wild combo of patterns – down to the underside of the wall shelf and the carpet – is definitely for a charismatic kid.

If you’re not into pastel pinks, try the opposite and opt for a soft blue and white palette. Whether you’re nursing or bottle-feeding, a glider is your best friend, like this beauty from the Save My Renoteam.
