There are few moments more memorable than a child receiving her very first pair of earrings. Whether gifted by parents, grandparents, or a loving godparent, that delicate sparkle marks the beginning of a lifelong journey with jewelry—and often becomes an heirloom to be treasured for generations.
At Hearts & Halos, we believe that a child’s first earrings should be more than beautiful. They should be crafted with the utmost care, safety, and quality—because these are memories that are meant to last forever.
When Is the Right Time for First Earrings?
Many families choose to pierce a baby’s ears during the first year of life, often as early as a baptism or christening. Others wait until a birthday, first communion, or milestone moment. The decision is personal, but what remains constant is the desire for earrings that are safe, hypoallergenic, and child-friendly.
💡 Tip: Our Solid 14k Gold baby earrings with secure screw-back closures are specially designed for little ears.
Choosing the Safest Earrings for Babies and Children
When selecting first earrings, parents and godparents should prioritize:
- Material: Always choose solid gold or hypoallergenic metals to prevent irritation. (Avoid plated or base metals.)
- Backings: Screw-back earrings are the gold standard for children, ensuring security and comfort.
- Size: Petite studs—like 3mm–4mm DiamonLuxe™ Cubic Zirconia or pearls—are timeless and safe for tiny ears.
- Craftsmanship: Smooth edges and lightweight design prevent discomfort during daily wear.
