Our Best Blinds for Children's Rooms
Window treatments in a child's room have two jobs: darkening the room for sleep and staying out of small hands. Pacific Shutters & Shades has installed Hunter Douglas window treatments near the coast and beyond for over 30 years. Here our recommendations for modern, elegant blinds (and shades) we’d trust in our nurseries, toddler rooms, and shared bedrooms.
Cordless Blinds for a Children's Room
The Consumer Product Safety Commission urges families with infants and young children to use cordless window coverings or ones with inaccessible cords, because an accessible cord carries a strangulation risk. That’s why our blinds and shades either have no visible cords at all or keeps its inner cords inaccessible.
The CPSC also suggests keeping cribs, beds, and furniture away from windows and any cords. We go through lift options at your consultation and steer every child's room toward a cordless or motorized control.
Our Best Blinds for Children's Rooms
Kids are hard on window coverings, so the material matters as much as the lift. These modern blinds hold up well in a child's room:
- EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds resist fading, warping, and bowing, and the slats wipe clean after sticky hands. Learn more about faux wood options.
- Parkland® Wood Blinds feature real wood slats in stain or painted finishes that suit an older child or teen's room.
- Hunter Douglas Metal Blinds withstand daily wear and come in bright colors for modern nurseries, kid’s rooms, playrooms—and throughout the home.
- Aria™ Soft Blinds use textured fabric vanes that turn daylight into a soft glow across a large window.
Each of these comes with cordless control.
Room-Darkening Shades for Naps and Early Sunrises
Deep sleep is important. Duette® Cellular Shades have an optional Duolite® liner in a room-darkening opacity, which helps a nursery stay darker and cooler through a bright afternoon.
Motorized Blinds and Shades for a Nursery
PowerView® Automation clears cords out of the room and runs shades on a schedule, so a nursery darkens at nap time without anyone opening the door. You can raise a shade from your phone, by remote, or by voice while holding a baby—flexibility many families enjoy after we leave.
Motorization is also useful for windows that sit above a changing table or behind a crib, where reaching across furniture every morning gets old fast. We install, we set them up, program the schedules, and show you how to adjust them before we leave.

Seeing samples in the actual room settles this quickly. We show lift options side by side so you can work a cordless shade with your own hands before anything gets ordered, and we measure while we are there.
