Our fabrics (exclusive of trims) are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, which means they’ve undergone testing and are free of more than 300 hazardous chemicals, allergens, and skin irritants (think pesticides, heavy metals, carcinogenic colourants, formaldehyde, and pesticides).

Children’s clothing goes through an extra saliva test to be sure dyes are set properly and won’t cause harm if they suck on them. Testing certifies that the textiles pose no health risk and have a skin-friendly pH level (i.e. won’t cause irritation). We opted for this higher standard not only for health reasons, but also because leaving these toxins out of our products is better for the planet – and that’s something we care about deeply.

Starfish Kids clothes are made to be easy to wash & dry. Machine wash cold with like colors. Tumble dry low, cool iron if needed. Only non-chlorine bleach when needed.

Simply put: We obsess over every last detail. From the design of each style to the supersoft OEKO TEX-certified fabrics to the superior fits that make for an always-polished look. And we vet all of our suppliers to ensure our products are made in safe, ethical conditions that adhere to our strict standards.

From time to time, it’s our pleasure to extend new and/or existing customers' offers or promotions. The best way to keep informed about current promotions is to sign up for our email list, follow us on social channels, and visit our website regularly to check in. Promotions are subject to change at any time without prior notice.

We may be just a wee bit biased, but we think you can’t go wrong with a gift from Starfish Kids! Simply select “gift” at checkout and write a message we’ll enclose with your package. (And don’t worry, we will not include prices on packing slips that have a gift message). Your item(s) will be wrapped in our beautiful tissue paper with a sticker and your message for that special feel.

If you’d like to be added to a waitlist for a specific product, you can sign up on the product page to be notified via email when the item becomes available.

We currently offer monogramming on our Cozy Initial Crew, and think it’s a lovely way to make our products more personable, whether for your own little ones or for a unique gift for friends or family. 

Please note- monogram items have an additional 2 week lead time and will ship separately from other non-monogrammed items in your order.  Also, due to their made-for-you nature, all monogram items are non-refundable.
