Where can I buy organic baby gifts in NYC?

Are Estella baby gifts made from organic cotton?
Yes. Every product Estella makes uses organic cotton — grown without synthetic pesticides and processed without harmful chemical dyes. Our knit toys and knit garments are handknit by artisans in Peru. Our cut-and-sew clothing is made in India. Both use organic cotton. Nothing is mass-produced. If Estella makes it, it is organic and ethical. Note: Our knit toys have an organic cotton exterior and are stuffed with polyester for shape and softness. And, we occasionally carry a small selection of items from other carefully chosen brands, which are clearly labelled with their brand name and are not organic, like our Loulou Lollipop baby swaddler.
What are the best NYC baby shower gifts?
Our most-gifted NYC baby shower gifts are the Urban Tot Gift Set ($90) — an NYC onesie, taxi rattle, and apple rattle — and the Frank NYC Baby Gift Basket ($440), which contains 12 pieces covering a baby's entire first year. For something in between, the Pigeon in the City Baby Set ($94) and the Whale Romper Hat & Rattle Set ($140) are consistently popular. All sets are designed in NYC, made from organic cotton, and ship within 1–2 business days. Gift boxing available for $8, complimentary on orders over $175.
Who is Estella and how long have you been making baby gifts?
Estella is a family-owned organic baby gift brand founded in New York City in 2003 by Jean and Chike. We have been making the same organic baby gifts the same way for over twenty years — knit toys and garments handknit by artisans in Peru, clothing sewn in India from organic cotton, all designed in NYC and sold exclusively through our own store and a small number of carefully chosen museum and boutique partners. We are not on Amazon. As seen in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, and BuzzFeed. Trusted by 55,000+ families and counting.
What is the price range for Estella baby gift sets?
Estella baby gift sets range from $90 to $440. Our most popular entry point is the Urban Tot Gift Set at $90 and the Whale Romper Hat & Rattle Set at $140 — both complete, gift-ready sets. For a significant gifting occasion, the Frank NYC Baby Gift Basket at $440 contains 12 pieces covering a baby's entire first year. Individual rattles start at $28. Free shipping on US orders over $75. Gift boxing available for $8, complimentary on orders over $175.
Do Estella baby gifts ship internationally and how quickly?
Yes, we ship to the United States and internationally. US orders are typically processed and shipped within 1–2 business days. International delivery times vary by destination and are calculated at checkout. Free shipping on US orders over $75. Expedited shipping is available at checkout for time-sensitive gifts. For baby shower gifts, we recommend ordering at least one week before the event. Estella is not available on Amazon — shop exclusively at estella-nyc.com or through our retail partners.
What makes Estella different from other baby gift brands?
Most baby gift brands are mass-produced, sold on Amazon, and made from conventional materials. Estella is none of those things. We have been making the same organic baby gifts the same way since 2003 — knit toys and garments handknit by artisans in Peru, clothing sewn in India from organic cotton, everything designed in New York City. We are family-owned, never mass-produced, and not available on Amazon — by choice. As seen in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, and BuzzFeed. Trusted by 55,000+ families and counting. If Estella makes it, it is organic and ethical.
