A newborn reborn doll is a hand-finished art doll sculpted and weighted to match the scale of a real infant, typically 17–22 in (43–55 cm) from crown to heel. Reborn US's newborn reborn dolls collection spans silicone reborn dolls with full-body solid silicone limbs and torsos, alongside GentleTouch vinyl pieces built over a weighted cloth body, such as the newborn doll silicone model. Artists layer translucent paint in thin coats — a technique called 3D layered skin — to mimic the mottled, veined look of a real newborn, then hand-root or hand-paint the hair strand by strand. Buyers include collectors building a nursery display, families marking a loss, and caregivers using dolls in reminiscence therapy. Shoppers who want a specific eye state can browse sleeping reborn dolls for a peaceful, closed-eye sculpt.
Choosing a newborn reborn doll comes down to four decisions: material, size, eyes, and hair. Full-body silicone feels firmer, is fully poseable, and is bath-safe, while vinyl-with-weighted-cloth-body feels softer and lighter in the arms — both are represented in our vinyl reborn dolls line. Size ranges from a compact 17 in preemie-scale piece up to a fuller 22 in newborn weight; hand-rooted mohair adds texture and cost versus a hand-painted hairline. For guidance on comparing these materials in depth, see our silicone-vs-vinyl reborn dolls guide. Whichever you pick, spot-clean vinyl with a mild soap and damp cloth, and keep any hand-painted doll out of direct sunlight to protect the pigment. For general product-safety background on toys and children's items, the CPSC toy safety resource is a useful reference point.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right newborn reborn doll?
Start with material: full-body silicone for a firm, poseable, bath-safe feel, or GentleTouch vinyl with a weighted cloth body for a softer cuddle. Then pick eyes — open for an alert look or
sleeping reborn dolls for a calm closed-eye sculpt — and decide between hand-rooted mohair or hand-painted hair, typically within the 17–22 in newborn size range.
What size is a newborn reborn doll?
A newborn reborn doll usually measures 17–22 in (43–55 cm) from head to heel, matching the scale of a real newborn infant. Weighting inside the body or limbs adds a realistic 3–6 lb heft, so the doll settles into your arms the way an actual baby would.
What is the difference between a full-body silicone and a vinyl reborn doll?
Full-body silicone is solid, poseable silicone throughout, giving it a firm, bath-safe realism, while vinyl reborn dolls use GentleTouch vinyl on the head and limbs over a weighted cloth body for a softer feel. Read our full
silicone vs vinyl comparison for the details on weight, poseability, and price.
How do you care for a reborn doll?
Spot-clean vinyl or silicone skin with a soft cloth and mild soap, avoid direct sunlight to protect hand-painted pigment, and store the doll flat when not displayed. Our
reborn doll care guide covers rooted-hair maintenance in more detail.
Are reborn dolls suitable for children?
Newborn reborn dolls are collectible art dolls, not conventional children's toys, so they're best suited to ages 3+ with adult supervision. Their hand-painted finish and small rooted-hair details are made for careful handling by collectors, older kids, and caregivers rather than unsupervised play.
How long does shipping take in the US?
Reborn US ships every newborn reborn doll with free US tracked shipping, arriving in 5–10 business days. Each order includes a tracking number and an adoption box for the doll's arrival.
