Meet the Hera Changing Station A Beautifully Practical Nursery Essential

Hera Nursery Dresser with matching changing station on top and baby clothes on hanger over lip.

Designing a nursery is about more than aesthetics; it’s about creating a space that supports you and your baby every single day. The Gaia Baby Hera Changing Station brings together natural materials, clever engineering, and timeless style. Made to fit seamlessly on the Hera Cot or Hera Dresser, it’s a flexible nursery essential that grows with your family.


 What Makes the Hera Changing Station Special?

Sustainable Natural Ash Wood

Crafted from sustainably sourced natural ash, the Hera Changing Station echoes the premium quality of the entire Hera Collection. It feels solid, looks beautiful, and is built to last through those busy early years.

Deep Safety Rim for Peace of Mind

An 8 cm safety rim surrounds the changing area, helping keep baby secure and centred while you change nappies, apply creams, or get them dressed.

Generous Changing Surface with Included Pad

The station comes with a custom waterproof changing pad featuring a zip-off PVC cover. It's easy to clean and provides a comfortable, supportive surface for baby.

Easy-Clean, Curved Design

With softly contoured edges and a wipe-clean finish, the Hera Changing Station blends practicality with modern minimalism.

Compatible With Hera Cot & Hera Dresser

Cleverly engineered grooves allow the station to lock safely onto the Hera Dresser, or sit securely across the Hera Cot Bed, giving parents multiple setup options—perfect for any room size.

 How to Use the Hera Changing Station on the Dresser

If you prefer a dedicated changing area, the Hera Dresser setup is ideal:

  • The changing station locks neatly into place on top of the dresser.

  • Wide drawers keep nappies, wipes, and clothing organised and within arm’s reach.

  • This setup keeps everything at a comfortable height for parents.

  • When your little one outgrows the changing phase, simply remove the station and continue using the dresser for years to come.

This creates a premium, dedicated changing zone without adding extra furniture to the room.

 


How to Use the Hera Changing Station Across the Cot

For small nurseries or multi-functional spaces, placing the Changing Station across the Hera Cot is a clever, space-saving solution:

  • The grooves at the base allow it to sit securely across the cot frame.

  • It transforms your cot into a dual-purpose sleep and changing area.

  • Keeps your essentials within reach even in the tightest spaces.

  • Perfect for parents who want to maximise every inch of the nursery.

When baby is older and more active, simply lift the changer away and return the cot to its primary sleep setup.
