Frequently Asked Questions

What is a singlet bodysuit used for?

A singlet bodysuit is a sleeveless one-piece that snaps at the crotch to stay tucked in — unlike a regular singlet which rides up. It's the perfect base layer for babies and can be worn alone in warmer weather or layered under onesies, jumpsuits, and knitwear when it's cooler. The snap closure also makes nappy changes much faster than a separate top.

What age is a baby singlet bodysuit suitable for?

Our Singlet Bodysuit is available from newborn (0000) through to size 1, covering babies from birth up to approximately 18 months old. If you're buying as a gift, size 000 or 00 is a safe choice as babies grow quickly through the smallest sizes.

Can a singlet bodysuit be worn as a going-home outfit?

Yes — paired with our Baby Leggings or worn under a Rai & Co onesie, it makes a beautiful and practical going-home outfit. The soft cotton is gentle enough for brand-new skin and the snap closure makes hospital nappy changes much easier.

Is the singlet bodysuit suitable for babies with eczema or sensitive skin?

Yes. The soft cotton fabric is breathable and free from harsh synthetics that can irritate sensitive skin. We recommend washing with a fragrance-free, gentle detergent and avoiding fabric softeners for best results.

How does the Singlet Bodysuit fit with the rest of the Basics Range?

The Singlet Bodysuit, Baby Leggings, and Long Sleeve Bodysuit are all designed to coordinate — same neutral colour palette, same soft cotton, same sizing. Mix and match across the range to build a simple, versatile baby wardrobe that actually works together.
