A baby's first earrings should be beautiful, comfortable and, above all, secure. Our baby earrings are solid 14K gold infant earrings with screw-back posts that thread firmly into place, so curious little fingers can't pull the backs off. They're a favorite next pair once an infant ear piercing has healed; our Newborn Piercing Guide covers timing and aftercare.

The posts are sized for tiny earlobes, and the wide screw back sits flat against the skin, so there's nothing sharp to scratch your baby's neck while she sleeps or nurses. Solid 14K gold is gentle on delicate new skin and won't flake or tarnish like plated jewelry.

For infants, small and simple is best: 3mm round studs, petite CZ or pearl studs, petite hearts and soft flower shapes. Birthstone studs make a lovely first-year keepsake, and religious designs are a favorite for baptism and christening gifts.

Every pair is gift wrapped at no extra charge and ships free within the US, making baby earrings an easy gift from grandparents and godparents. Read our Newborn Piercing Guide for tips on timing and aftercare before your baby's first pair.

Frequently asked questions

What are the best earrings for a newborn or infant?
Petite 3mm solid 14K gold studs with screw backs. Gold is gentle on new skin, the small size is comfortable during naps and feeding, and a threaded back stays put when babies tug at their ears. Simple round, pearl and heart studs are the most popular first choices.
What age can a baby wear earrings?
That's a decision for you and your pediatrician. Many families wait until a baby has had early vaccinations, and most piercers recommend letting a new piercing heal fully before switching earrings. Our Newborn Piercing Guide covers the details.
What size earrings are best for a baby?
Choose 3mm studs, or very small shaped designs, for infants. They look proportionate on tiny ears and are comfortable during sleep.
Why do you recommend screw backs for babies?
Babies tug at their ears. A screw back threads onto the post and won't slide off, which keeps the earring and its back where they belong.
How do I put screw-back earrings on a squirming baby?
Insert the post from the front, hold the earlobe gently, and turn the back clockwise until snug but not tight. Many parents find it easiest while the baby is feeding or sleepy.
