The Secrets of Dimples Merino, Natures Miracle
Marvellous Merino โ and How to Care for It Dimples high-quality Merino is made in New Zealand and designed to last โ treat it with love and care and it will stay looking beautiful for years to come. Why Merino? Merino wool truly is natureโs miracle. Its warm, soft, breathable fibres keep your little one comfortable all year round. Because babies take time to develop the ability to regulate their temperature โ and canโt tell us if theyโre too hot or cold โ Merino clothing and sleepwear offer peace of mind. The natural fibres form little pockets of insulating air, keeping warmth in on chilly days and helping release heat when itโs warm. Other wonderful benefits of Merino: Naturally hypoallergenic โ gentle on delicate skin and suitable for babies with eczema, allergies, or sensitivities Naturally flame-resistant โ without added chemicals Moisture-wicking โ absorbs moisture while staying warm and drying quickly Stain-resistant โ perfect for little spills and dribbles Keeps its shape โ it stretches with your baby, then springs right back after each wash Made to Last Each Dimples Merino garment is lovingly hand-sewn and embroidered by our talented team right here in New Zealand. Crafted with care and attention to detail, these pieces are designed to last โ ready to be worn, washed, and passed down through generations. To help your Merino stay soft, beautiful, and in great condition, it just needs a little extra love when it comes to care. How to Wash Merino Always check the garmentโs care label first Do not soak โ for stubborn stains, we recommend Sard Wonder Soap. Wet the stain in cold water, rub on the soap, agitate gently, then rinse thoroughly Use a wool-approved detergent like Earthwise Wool & Delicates. Dilute the detergent before adding to your washing machine โ never pour directly onto the fabric Avoid detergents that contain eco-brighteners or enzymes, which can damage Merino fibres (even some โbabyโ or โecoโ detergents) Use the wool wash cycle on your machine, or hand wash gently in cold water Rinse well, gently squeeze (no twisting), and lay flat to dry in the shade Never bleach, rub, soak or tumble dry. Merino prefers to be air-dried Cool steam iron if needed โ and yes, itโs dry cleanable if preferred How to Dry Merino Merino should be air-dried flat in the shade. Direct sunlight can cause fading or damage, and tumble dryers are a no-go. How to Store Merino Because Dimples Merino contains no chemicals, it can be extra appealing to clothes moths. If you're packing your garments away for a while: Wash and dry them first Store in a sealed garment bag or container Clothes Moths โ What to Watch For Noticed tiny holes? Pop the item into a sealed bag and freeze for 72 hours โ this helps eliminate any moth larvae. After freezing, rewash the garment as usual. Shop the full range of our luxurious Merino here

What to put in your Hospital Go-Bag
The Big Day โ Packing Your Bag for Birth The excitement of packing your maternity bag is such a beautiful moment โ folding tiny clothes that will soon dress your little one, imagining the moment youโll finally hold them in your arms. Itโs a magical time, but we know it can also feel overwhelming, especially if itโs your first time. It's hard to know what you'll really need!ย Hereโs the good news: the place youโre giving birth is likely just a short distance away from home. Your partner or family will be able to bring anything you forget, so donโt stress about having everything packed perfectly. A really practical way to prepare is to pack two separate bags โ one for labour and postpartum, and one for your baby. When things start moving quickly (as they often do), having your essentials for labour in one place makes it easy to grab and go. Your babyโs bag can stay tucked away until itโs needed later. Itโs a simple way to stay calm, organised, and focused on welcoming your little one. ๐ฅฐ What to Pack in Your Go Bag This bag should contain everything youโll want need for both the big day and your recovery afterwards. Keeping it all in one place makes it easier for you and your partner to grab what you need when the time comes. Here are our recommendations, these are not all essential but many women find all of these items have helped them feel cool, calm, and collected, and make their experience a bit more comfortable. We also have a downloadable list here. For your labour and birth: Comfortable clothes for labour โ whether thatโs your favourite baggy t-shirt, bikini top, or nightie (or even nothing at all!) - wear what makes you feel at ease A pillow from home โ comfort is key, and something familiar can help you relax Lip balm to keep your lips hydrated Hair ties or bands to keep your hair out of your face A drink bottle with a sipper top for easy hydration TENS machine or other birth aid if you if you plan to use one โ we love Your Birth Weapon Music to create a soothing environment (you could create your own birth playlist!) A quick sugar hit, like jelly snakes or barley sugars, to give you energy when needed, and some high protein snacks for your and your partner like muesli bars, nuts or jerky. Electrolyte drinks are also a great way to help your body hydrate, and provide a bit of a boost. Mobile phone and charger, and a camera if you want to capture special moments For after your birth: Any regular medications you currently take Comfortable clothes and PJs for you to change into once youโve delivered your little bundle of cuteness. And your dressing gown if youโre a dressing gown gal! Toiletries such as shampoo, soap, toothbrush and toothpaste, your hairbrush โ whatever you use everyday Post Birth Care โ This Pure Mama Spray is serious lifesaver to help ease any discomfort. Pair it with some postpartum undies and a soothing insert - this is the ultimate combo! A maternity bra โ a maternity bra will help make things more comfortable when your milk comes in.ย Silverettes and Nipple Cream โ The Silverettes will protect your nipples between feeding and pumping during the early days of breast feeding while your body is still getting used to the new normal. This Nipple cream by Pure Mama will help soothe discomfort. More snacks Bring a few of your favourite snacks - you'll be doing alot of sitting in those first few days and you'll need to keep your energy up.ย We also recommend lactation cookies โ they are soo delicious and really help to support your milk come in. Two changes of clothes for your partner just in case What to Pack for Baby ๐ฃ Your babyโs bag should include everything theyโll need during their first few days with you. Hereโs what youโll want to pack: Clothes for baby - Warm onesies, bodysuits, pants, cardigans, socks, beanies, and booties. Weโd recommend packing for two days, so three of each item should be perfect. Plus you canโt forget the special going home outfit! ๐ธ Our Dimples Merino range is perfect for newborns โค๏ธ Cotton or merino wraps for swaddling and a soft blanket for warmth White noise machine (the YogaSleep Hushh is a great option) to help settle baby Newborn nappies and Water Wipes - make sure you choose gentle products, with no perfume A stretchy wrap for carrying baby if they get unsettled Car seat โ make sure itโs installed safely and ready to go home with baby (test it beforehand!) Dimples have a wide range of capsules and carseats available if you have not already purchased one. ย With everything packed and organised, youโll feel more relaxed and ready for the big day. Remember, thereโs no need to have everything perfect, and you absolutely donโt have to have everything on this list to have a wonderful, positive and beautiful experience! Focus on the amazing journey ahead, and know that you have everything you need for your babyโs arrival. Youโve got this, and weโre here to support you every step of the way. ย

Natural Clothing and Allergies
The best clothing choices for allergies Soft, natural, gentle Babiesโ skin is soft, gorgeous โ and sensitive. When theyโre young, their skin is much thinner and more permeable than that of an adult, which is why itโs so susceptible to irritation and dryness. Although all babies have delicate skin, some have more serious skin conditions like eczema, hives, and other irritations. These increasingly common conditions can be caused or exacerbated by food allergies, and environmental triggers like laundry powders, soaps, and clothing. While the right clothing canโt cure eczema or allergies, it can help reduce the symptoms and make your baby more comfortable. Soft, natural fibres, organic fabrics, chemical-free processing and quality craftsmanship can help. Hereโs what to look for: Naturally gentle Eczema-prone skin is irritated by harsh fibres and heat. Synthetic fabrics and thick weaves โ like denim or hand-knitted wool โ can trap heat, rub against the skin, and make symptoms worse. Look for clothing made of soft, naturally breathable fabric like cotton, linen, and hemp. Although thick wool can be irritating, finely woven merino clothing is gentle enough for most eczema-prone babies. In fact, because merino helps wick away moisture and regulate temperature, it can actually help reduce skin irritation caused by overheating. Choose organic Because babiesโ skin is so permeable, it can absorb harsh chemicals from clothing. Thatโs why itโs important to choose organic fabrics as much as possible. Conventional cotton crops are treated with a range of pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides while theyโre growing. No matter how much you wash clothing before wear, traces of these chemicals can remain in the fibres and transfer to your babyโs skin, potentially causing allergic reactions or general irritation. Avoid the issue by choosing pure, certified organic cotton as much as you can. Soft colours for soft skin During processing, cotton and other fabrics may be bleached, dyed, and treated with chemicals like softeners, fire retardants, and wrinkle or stain guards. These chemicals are designed to stay in the fibres of the fabric, which means they end up pressed against your babyโs skin, potentially triggering eczema flare-ups or irritation. Often, high-quality organic cotton and merino products are made without these chemicals to avoid these issues, and some manufacturers will list clothing as allergy-friendly or chemical-free. If youโre unsure, choosing white or undyed organic cotton or merino is the best option. Made with care Good craftsmanship is just as important as quality materials. Cheaply made baby and childrenโs clothing is often ill-fitting, with rough seams and scratchy labels โ all highly irritating to sensitive skin. Quality clothing, on the other hand, is designed to fit comfortably. Look for clothing without tight sleeves, elastic at the cuffs, or high necklines โ these can all chafe and irritate sensitive skin. Seams should be sewn flat and labels should be printed on the fabric or easy to remove. Go natural for extra care Whether your baby has allergies or not, you canโt go wrong choosing gentle, natural, soft clothing. Youโll keep them warm and comfortable, avoid harsh chemicals, protect their skin, and reduce the risk of irritation. At Dimples, all our baby clothes are made of natural fibres, with quality craftsmanship, comfortable, classic designs and minimal chemicals used in processing. Take a look now.

Our Commitment to the Environment
Our commitment to the environment How we look after your little one without harming the planet While caring for your precious bundle is often the first thing on your mind, it doesnโt need to have a negative impact on our environment. At Dimples, we partner with like-minded manufacturers and brands to offer ethical, sustainable products. We know that itโs possible to look after your babies without causing harm to the very planet theyโll inherit. Hereโs what we do differently... Earth-friendlier fabrics Fabric choice is the starting point for us in doing our bit for the environment. Going for natural over synthetic is better for both your babe and the environment โ synthetics are made from fossil fuels and cause lots of pollution. Nature does a pretty good job of providing us with amazing fabrics โ merino wool from New Zealand sheep (which is both sustainable and renewable) and pure organic cotton that is free of chemicals. Our fabrics meet these standards: Fairtrade certified organic cotton and Australian Certified Organic โ Our cotton is Fairtrade certified which shows farmworkers have decent working conditions and are paid fair prices for their produce. The organic certification means the farming process causes less stress on the environment. Without organic practices, toxic chemical residue ends up in local rivers, waterways and lakes, and harms the wildlife and people who live there. Oeko-Texย Standard 100 โย this certification takes โcertified organicโ one step further. To meet Oeko-Tex Standard 100, our fabric is tested and certified to be free from harmful levels of more than 100 substances known to be damaging to our health. We think this is pretty important for your babeโs delicate skin. Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) โย this standard not only protects our adored merino producers but also the land they graze on. This is a globally recognised certification that covers sustainable grazing methods to protect our land. Responsible packaging While ruling out packaging completely is a difficult feat with stock coming in and out of stores and warehouses, weโre focussed on minimising what we use through recycling and reusing. Here are some of the things we do: Buy recycled boxes โย this saves trees and the huge amounts of water taken to grow them (and make the boxes). Reuse boxes for stock โย our boxes see multiple trips back and forth to shops before they end up in the recycling. Use tissue paper for packaging โย we only wrap your precious purchases in recyclable tissue paper. Reuse plastic bags from suppliers โย sometimes we canโt avoid plastic. If thatโs the case, we make sure it gets reused rather than binned. Reducing environmental impacts with our manufacturing partner Wastewater is a huge problem internationally, with tonnes of toxic, dye-filled wastewater dumped into streams and waterways without being treated. Thereโs little regulation or policing of this, which has led to a lot of waterways in China and India becoming contaminated. Our textile partner ABMT is an innovative and environmentally-friendly manufacturer that prides itself in reducing the huge environmental impacts usually associated with making textiles. Its Melbourne facility has an on-site water treatment plant, so up to 85% of water in the factory is reused within the manufacturing process or through a third-party recycled water programme. ABMT also holds an ISO1401 Environmental Management System certification, which shows environmental impacts and sustainability are front and centre of its operations. Slow fashion for generations of babies Fast fashion sees a lot of textiles ending up in landfill. With little ones growing as quickly as they do, baby clothes too often join the growing piles of waste. Thatโs why we focus on timeless designs and fabrics that last, so your Dimpleโs products will last through generations of babies. Brands we stock care too We partner with brands who share our environmental ethos. Stokke โ throughout the companyโs history, Stokke has made every effort to use environmentally-friendly and biodegradable materials. They donโt rest on their laurels but continue to innovate and explore new ways of helping preserve the planet. Read more about the Stokke commitment to ethics and the environment here . Nuna โ Nuna is focused on โcreating consciouslyโ with mindful manufacturing and materials. They believe in designing better gear for your little one and at the same time improving the world in which your child will grow up. Read more about how Nuna goes above and beyond here . Forget any trade-offs โ you can have both Looking after our environment doesnโt mean you need to compromise on quality or choice. Weโve hand-picked the best fabrics, manufacturers, and suppliers to make shopping with a conscience easy.
