Baby Safe Paint for Your Nursery

Whether it’s painting an accent wall or sprucing up an old dresser, paint choice is important for your baby nursery. And since paint can emit gases even after they’ve dried, sourcing baby safe paint is key! As nursery interior designers, we love that so many brands have made safer paints available in mostly all colors in their catalog. This helps with being safe while also not limiting ourselves and our imaginations!

What is Baby Safe Paint?

For your baby nursery, the safest paints are those that are low in volatile organic compounds, or VOCs. These are great for your family’s health and the overall air quality in your home. Some paints are classified as “Low-VOC”, but for baby nurseries, we like to take it a step closer to the best and choose “Zero-VOC” paints! If you’re into numbers, low-VOC paints have less than 50 g/L while zero-VOC paints have less than 5 g/L of these compounds.
