Dear Hayden
Brand · Clothing
Dear Hayden was born during nap times after my second child arrived. Like so many new moms, I found myself searching for clothing that was as practical as it was beautiful. I loved dressing my little ones in sweet rompers, knitwear, and timeless outfits, but I grew frustrated with the endless snaps and buttons—especially when my son, Julien, made it very clear that outfit changes were not his favorite part of the day.
I couldn't find the kind of clothing I envisioned: elevated, thoughtfully designed pieces that were both functional and beautiful. So I decided to create them myself.
Today, as a mom of three, that mission continues to guide everything we make.
At Dear Hayden, we believe childhood should feel joyful, and getting dressed should too. We create the kinds of pieces that make you smile when you pull them out of the drawer—the outfit you can't wait to put your little one in, the sweater strangers stop to compliment, the pajamas they'll remember years from now.
We're drawn to soft, cozy fabrics, charming hand-drawn prints, timeless silhouettes, and thoughtful details that make everyday moments feel just a little more special. Our magnetic closures make dressing easier for parents while keeping every piece as beautiful as it is functional.
Whenever possible, we choose organic and sustainably sourced materials because we believe the clothing our children wear should be gentle on both little ones and the world they'll grow up in.
Dear Hayden is a love letter to childhood, inspired by my own children and named after my daughter, Hayden Elizabeth. It's our hope that these are the pieces your family reaches for again and again—the ones that become part of your sweetest memories.
With love,
Nicole
