When they are first born, babies don't have much need for sturdy shoes. You may decide, depending on the time of year, that socks and soft booties are sufficient. Of course, in the winter, you'll need to make sure that your child's feet are well-covered and warm. If you're wondering what age is ideal for a baby's first pair of shoes, we can help. Our customer service support team is by your side any time!
The ideal age varies depending on the child. You may think that shoes and walking go together, but be sure to let your little one take their first steps barefoot as this helps with balance and coordination. Walking shoes, or hard-soled shoes, are best left till your child is more confident on their feet. This is usually around 7 to the 18-month stage. But just because your child can't wear proper big kid shoes yet doesn't mean they can't have something stylish on their feet. We carry a range of newborn baby girl shoes, size 0, that are safe and comfortable for the very youngest children. Â
To sum up, as a general rule, aim to buy cute, cuddly soft little girl shoes until your child is confident, independent walker.Â
