At Clair de Lune, caring for babies has been at the heart of what we do for over 80 years. But our commitment goes far beyond designing beautiful, safe nursery products. We’re incredibly proud to work alongside baby banks and family support charities across the UK, helping ensure every baby has a safe, comfortable place to sleep and essential items to support their early days.
Through these partnerships, we’re able to support families facing difficult circumstances, from financial hardship to unexpected life challenges. Every donation, collaboration and conversation helps us understand where support is needed most, and how we can make a real difference.
What Are Baby Banks?
Baby Banks provide essential items for babies and young children to families experiencing hardship or crisis. Similar to food banks, they rely on donations and community support to help families access everyday essentials. They supply clothing, toiletries, Moses baskets, feeding items and nursery equipment. Most Baby Banks operate through professional referrals, ensuring support reaches families at the right time. Beyond practical help, Baby Banks provide reassurance, dignity and comfort to parents navigating difficult situations.

Working Together To Provide Safe Sleep Spaces
Safe sleep is one of the most essential needs for a newborn, which is why our partnership with charities like KidsBank focuses heavily on providing Moses baskets, mattresses and nursery essentials.
KidsBank regularly purchases Moses baskets and cot beds through our charity support programme, ensuring every mattress provided is brand new to maintain the highest safety standards. By offering charity pricing and fast delivery, we help their team respond quickly when families urgently need support.
From time to time, we’re also able to donate brand new products directly — something we know makes an immediate difference for families starting from scratch.
Creating Comfort And Confidence
Hearing feedback from charity teams about how these items are used is always incredibly moving for our team and reminds us why these partnerships matter so deeply.
