When setting up a nursery, functionality and style go hand in hand. IKEA's MYLLRA series brings both together in a clean, modern design that feels warm, practical, and well thought out. With smooth beige finishes, rounded details, and clever storage, MYLLRA makes life with a baby easier and more organized.

The MYLLRA changing table is more than just a place to change diapers. It combines a spacious top with raised edges for safety, two large drawers for essentials, and open compartments for baskets or organizers. This layout keeps everything within easy reach while maintaining a tidy look.
The design is compact yet versatile, making it suitable even for smaller nursery spaces. Details such as rounded drawer knobs and soft curves give the piece a child-friendly character. Underneath, the drawers are perfect for storing baby clothes, blankets, or spare diapers, while baskets in the open sections can hold toys, creams, and wipes.

Both the changing table and the crib are designed with everyday life in mind. Drawers that slide smoothly, surfaces that are easy to wipe clean, and storage that keeps everything organized – all these details make caring for a baby less stressful and more enjoyable.
