When choosing a nursery wall paint we suggest you opt for a baby safe paint that ticks the following boxes:

  • Non-toxic - i.e. water based and stay clear of oil based paints
  • No odour, or low odour
  • VOC free, or ultra low VOCs

We offer two paint brands that are classified as baby safe - these include Tikurilla and Little Greene. For more valuable information, read our baby safe paints guide and what you need to look out for. Buy your nursery paint from The Paint Shed, enjoy colour matching and free standard delivery on orders over £50.

These days, nurseries painted in pink and blue are less common. Many parents now prefer neutral colours, as they often better complement a home's interior style and tend to remain suitable as the child gets older. Below are our top rated neutral paint colours suited to nurseries:

If you're looking to achieve a unique look for your child's bedroom or nursery you could consider using wall stencils, these are perfect for getting a professional finish and playing with different colours. Alternatively, you could keep the space neutral and add some 3D elements, like popular cartoon characters or flower walls, or consider buying a mural to bring a lovely rainbow or calming feature indoors. 

If you opt for a baby safe paint that is water-based and offers low VOCs then we would recommend you wait between 2-3 days before using the nursery after painting. To improve the air quality, ensure the room is well ventilated with windows open where possible. This will help minimise any scents as well as help along the overall paint drying and curing process.
