Introducing the Maia Collection by Gaia Baby

When it comes to designing a nursery that feels peaceful, refined and made to last, the Maia Collection by Gaia Baby offers just the right finishing touches. Crafted with premium materials, muted tones and thoughtful design, the collection gives parents plenty of flexibility to build a space that suits baby and beyond.

Why the Maia Collection stands out

• Premium materials & craftsmanship: The pieces in the Maia Collection are made from certified pure organic cotton - delivering softness and quality that cares for your baby’s skin. Gaia Baby

• Elegant, muted palette: The colour-story is subtle and timeless - choose from Soft White, Sand or Blush, and mix & match items to create a calming aesthetic. Gaia Baby

• Award-winning design: The collection has been recognised for its design quality, gaining the Junior Design Awards 2024. Gaia Baby

• Versatility for nursery & play: The items aren’t just for those first months — things like a generous canopy, playmat or braided pillow enable the space to evolve as your child grows. Gaia Baby

Key pieces worth highlighting

• Maia Muslin Canopy - A generous canopy that drapes over a cot or becomes a feature in a toddler’s reading/play nook. Gaia Baby

• Maia Muslin Playmat - Soft, washable and perfect for tummy time or toddler play. Gaia Baby

• Maia Braided Pillow - Adds texture and interest as décor, either border of a playmat or on a bed; note: not intended as a cot bumper. Gaia Baby

• Maia Muslin Blanket & Fitted Sheets - The blanket (120×120cm) doubles as a swaddle or light throw, and the fitted sheets come in two sizes (60×120 cm & 70×140 cm) to accommodate growth. Gaia Baby

• Maia Muslin Sleeveless Sleeping Bag (2.5 tog) - Prioritises safe sleep: fully breathable cotton, sleeveless for better arm movement, 1-way zipper for night changes. Gaia Baby

Designing your nursery with Maia in mind

Here are a few ideas to make the most of the Maia collection.

1. Start with a neutral base: Use the Soft White or Sand fitted sheet as your foundational tone for the cot.

2. Add texture and softness: Layer in the muslin blanket and playmat - muslin’s airy nature gives softness without overwhelming the space.

3. Create a mini-zone for play or reading: Drape the canopy over a cot corner or small armchair, pair with the braided pillow and playmat to define a cosy spot as the baby grows.

4. Accent with blush: The Blush tone offers a gentle pop of colour - whether it’s a decorative pillow set or a subtle throw - and will age well into toddlerhood.

5. Growth-proof setup: Because the collection is designed to adapt from newborn to toddler, you’re investing in pieces that carry through for years rather than just months.

Safety & care best-practices

• Decorative pillows (like those in the Maia Decorative Pillow Set) should not be used in a crib or cot due to the risk of suffocation. They can be used under adult supervision in a play area. Gaia Baby

• Braided pillows should not be used as cot bumpers. Gaia Baby

• For the blanket: wash in cold water with a gentle, fragrance-free detergent, avoid fabric softeners (which can reduce breathability), either dry on low heat or air-dry to preserve softness. Gaia Baby

Who this collection is right for

• Parents seeking a calm, minimalist nursery aesthetic rather than bold, bright themes.

• Families who value quality materials and longevity - not just items for the first few months.

• Those wanting a collection that evolves with their child - from baby’s sleep zone to toddler’s play or reading nook.

• Anyone who prefers mix-and-match flexibility within a cohesive colour palette rather than one fixed theme.

Final thoughts

The Maia Collection from Gaia Baby offers a beautiful blend of form and function. With its high-quality organic cotton, subtle palette, and attention to both design and practicality, it’s well suited for parents who want the nursery to feel stylish and considered - while also being safe, comfortable and ready for the years ahead.

Whether you're just starting to plan your nursery or looking for a refined update as your baby transitions into toddler-hood, the Maia line gives a strong foundation. Your nursery can be both a serene haven for now and an adaptable space for what’s next.
