Feeding Smock

Shop Our Wide Range of Baby & Toddler Feeding Smocks

We can’t avoid mess when it comes to children, but we can certainly try and make things easier

Whether your baby is starting solids or already a messy eater, these smocks are a must-have for any parent. Unlike your standard bib, our smocks cover the lap, sides, back and arms, so it offers all-over protection during meals or playtime. And it’s perfect as you move from spoon-feeding to self-feeding.

Available in our beautiful hand-illustrated designs, our food smocks come in sleeveless and long sleeves and are great to use not only when eating, but when they’re busy being creative too.

Our long-sleeved smocks come with soft sateen sleeves that won’t restrict your child’s movement and the elastic cuffs mean the sleeves won’t roll up, while the sleeveless smocks are perfect for toddlers who have more control over their hand-eye coordination. A generous pouch is perfect to catch spills so your floor stays cleaner, which is less work for you. Bonus!

Feeding smocks are available in many of our hand-illustrated designs including Cockatoo, Cuddly Faces, Little Creatures, Lady Elliot Island, Modern Native, Amongst the Ferns and more.

Top Quality Feeding Smocks Australia

We all know with children comes mess, but we can try to make things a little easier and reduce the amount of washing we must do. Our feeding smocks come in 2 styles - sleeveless, and long sleeve (suitable for up to 18 months) and can be used as feeding smocks or Art Smocks.

Our smocks are made using our high-quality TPU fabric at the front, which is a great eco-friendly alternative to PVC that's highly durable and biodegradable. The sleeves are made from our super soft cotton sateen and include elastic cuffs which are essential for keeping little clothes protected. The front is waterproof and has a generous pouch for catching spills.

Our feeding smocks will keep your little one clean and their clothes fully covered and protected, leaving them mess-free. Super convenient and easy to use, we’ve designed them to be practical and easy to put on and take off; slipping on and off in microseconds to avoid tanties. The adjustable press stud closure makes it easy and quick. You can easily wipe away mess and when you need to, just pop it into the washing machine.

FAQs on our Food Smocks

What is a feeding smock?

A food smock is such a useful item of clothing. It protects your child’s clothes from spills and mess when they’re eating or creating, and this means less washing for you.


Are there different styles of feeding smocks available?

At Marmalade Lion, we have 2 styles of smocks; long sleeve which covers the whole arm and is perfect for the little ones just starting on solid foods, and sleeveless which is great for the older toddlers who have their hand-eye coordination better skilled and make a little less mess. Both can be used as feeding and art smocks. 


How often should feeding smocks be washed?

Our high-quality TPU waterproof fabric at the front means spills are easily wiped away, again meaning less washing for you. But when your smock needs a deeper clean, you can easily pop it into the washing machine and line dry. 


Are there any materials to avoid when purchasing a food smock?

We would recommend sticking with natural, breathable fabrics that won’t irritate the skin. Our TPU fabric is a great eco-friendly alternative to PVC that's highly durable and biodegradable. 


Can food smocks be used during solid food introduction?

Food smocks are absolutely perfect (and almost a must) when introducing solid foods into your child’s diet. This is one of the messiest times in a child’s life when they get more food on themselves, you, the floor, wall, dog, cat, brother or sister than they get in their mouths. A good food smock will at least cover them from their spills. 


Are feeding smocks easy to take on and off?

Our food smocks are designed to be practical and easy to put on and take off. The adjustable press stud closure makes it easy and quick; all the more important to avoid those tanties. 


Can feeding smocks be worn by parents or only by the baby?

No. Well you can always put on an apron if you need to, but our food smocks are designed to fit baby and toddlers. 


Are there any patterns or designs available for food smocks?

Our food smocks are available in many of our hand-illustrated designs including Cockatoo, Cuddly Faces, Little Creatures, Lady Elliot Island, Modern Native, Amongst the Ferns and more.


Can food smocks help with reducing mess during feeding time?

That’s their purpose! Using a smock will guarantee less mess on your child, which will in turn mean less washing for you.
