Mumma Etcetera Baby & Toddler Hat

The Mumma Etcetera Baby & Toddler Hat is a soft handwoven linen sun hat, lined in cotton against your little one's skin, with a neck tie that keeps it where you put it.

An adjustable pull on the inside means each size grows with your child, and four sizes cover 0–3 months right through to 2 years. It sits neatly under a carrier headrest, folds into your bag without creasing badly, and is machine washable.

Every colourway is hand-dyed in small batches, so each piece is uniquely its own, and they match the Daily Carrier and Hipsy Carrier. Designed in Australia. Browse more essentials in our Out and About collection.

Why parents love the Mumma Etcetera Baby & Toddler Hat

Parents love this hat for the pram nap in dappled afternoon light — it's light and breathable enough for Australian summers, the linen softens with every wash, and the neck tie means it actually stays on. The adjustable pull inside gets a little more life out of each size, and because it comes in the same hand-dyed colourways as Mumma Etcetera's carriers and slings, you can match your baby's hat to your carry. It's the kind of everyday essential that gets reached for constantly.

FAQs

Which size should I choose?
Four sizes cover 0–3 months, 3–6 months, 6–12 months and 1–2 years. If your little one is between sizes, size up and draw the inside pull in.

Will the hat protect my baby from the sun?
The linen brim shades little faces and the neck tie keeps it on. A hat is one part of sun protection, not all of it — keep your little one in the shade through the middle of the day and follow current Australian sun safety advice for their age.

Can I wash it?
Yes. Hand wash or gentle machine wash in cold water with a mild detergent free of brighteners, and hang in the shade to dry. The linen will soften and gently fade over time, developing character.

Do the colours match the carriers?
Yes. The hats are dyed in the same batches as the Daily and Hipsy carriers, so Burleigh, Coco, Elston, Fleetwood and Meadow all pair up.

Why does my hat look slightly different from the photos?
Every colourway is hand-dyed in small batches and the linen is handwoven, so small variations in weave and shade are part of the fabric's character — no two pieces are exactly alike.
