About Nanat
Reinventing comfort & style with premium pima cotton baby blankets and beautifully unique designs.
It's more than a blanket!
Every family has a special baby blanket story, and ours started with the cutest little mix-up. At the end of a long day, when it was time for bed, we would say, ‘Juju and Liam, time to go night-night.’ And as kids do, they made up their own version of "night-night," which turned into “nanat.” From that moment on, their blankets weren’t just blankets – they were nanats, and this new word was born.
As new parents, we quickly realized just how much these simple pieces of fabric meant to our entire family. For Liam and Juju, their nanats became more than just blankets – they were comfort, calm, and the sweetest little companions. The feel, the smell, everything about their nanats was so important to them, creating a deep bond that we, as parents, came to appreciate more and more each day.
Everywhere we went, the nanats came too – like any other member of the family, they couldn’t be left behind. From quick trips to the grocery store, to long drives to visit grandma and grandpa in Delaware, even on flights to my childhood home in France, those nanats were always by our side. One time, Juju left her nanat in France, and it was lovingly packed and shipped home. When Liam’s nanat needed repair, it was sent to my mother in France so she could work her magic and return it like new to Liam. Our kids’ nanats have a lot of miles on them! They’ve been with us every step of the way, and what a journey it has been.
Over the years, we came to understand just how deeply these blankets were woven into the fabric of our family life. They weren’t just there to soothe our children throughout those early years – they became keepers of memories. The nanat holds such sweet memories of your little ones who grow so fast. All the warm moments snuggling together on the couch, all the naps, all the trips in the stroller, all the visits to friends and family, all the love – all stored in this little blanket called nanat.
Beautiful baby blankets with a twist
Seeing how much our kids’ nanats became an integral part of our lives inspired me to help other families experience that same special connection. When I became a mom, I found baby wares to be overly infantile and uninspiring. I wondered why I couldn’t find something different and creative! I was looking for a blend of elegance and humor, something sophisticated but cool, original and unique. As an artist and textile designer, I wanted to create something that moms like me would love.
I started working with my watercolor illustrations to create patterns that would appeal to both parents and kids - something that would blend a bit of cool with a touch of sophistication. This work grew into a dream to infuse beautiful art into the everyday lives of families and to share my passion for exceptional fabric.
At Nanat, we're all about combining the highest quality and softest fabrics with classic yet unconventional designs that mamas, papas and their babies will love ❤️.
What started as a little mix-up with a baby blanket has grown into a brand that brings joy, comfort, and beauty into homes around the world. And just like in our family, we hope these blankets become a part of your family, too – creating the same lasting memories, comfort, and love that our own children found in their nanats.
In our home, the nanat is so much more than a blanket – it’s part of the family.

The values driving Nanat
We want Nanat to be a force of positivity in the world. The world could use a bit of that, don't you think?
Imagination
Imagination speaks to the heart of Nanat. We're always looking to combine offbeat content with other interesting elements not typically associated with baby wares, to provide something fresh and new to our customers. We want our playfulness and creative expression to engage and inspire the imagination of both children and parents.
Comfort
As an expert in textiles, developing the highest quality and most comforting fabric for you and your children to love and enjoy is paramount. A child’s blanket offers emotional and therapeutic benefits that help them relax and self-soothe. We want all of the wonderful attributes of our fabrics to shine through so Nanat becomes that special object that brings comfort and peace to your little one.
Thoughtfulness
Nanat impacts our customers and their children, our business partners, and our planet. Acting with integrity, and in a mindful way that considers the effects of our decisions on others and the environment is critical to how we do business. With this belief comes a commitment to giving back to the communities where we live and work, and to partnering with other businesses committed to sustainability and ethical practices.
