Baby Memory Preservation Cost: What Affects the Price?
Baby memory preservation at The Art Galaxy starts at ₹2,500 (Basic) and goes up to ₹10,000 (Premium), depending on how many items you include — a hospital band alone costs less than a frame combining a band, footprint, first clothing item and photograph together.
What moves the price up or down
The main factor is simply how many items go into the frame. A single hospital band or a small footprint sits toward the Basic end. Combining several items — band, cord stump, first socks, a photograph — into one detailed layout moves the price toward Premium.
Frame size also matters: a larger display piece with more space between items costs more than a compact arrangement of the same items.
Related services and how they compare
If your baby's first shoes are the main item you want preserved, Kids/Baby Shoes Preservation (₹3,500–₹4,500) is priced separately and specifically for that. Sonography and ultrasound scan preservation (₹1,000–₹3,500) is also its own line item if a scan print is all you want preserved.
Many parents order more than one service over time — a scan preserved shortly after a pregnancy announcement, then a fuller Baby Memories frame once the baby arrives.
Planning your budget around the right service
If you're deciding where to start, think about what you actually have on hand right now rather than trying to plan the perfect combined piece in advance. A hospital band and a small footprint taken at birth are easy to send immediately; other items like first shoes tend to come later, once your baby has started walking.
Ordering services separately as items become available is completely normal, and often more practical than holding everything back for one large combined order months later.
If budget is a concern, start with the single item you'd most regret losing — a hospital band or footprint taken at birth tends to top that list for most parents — and treat any later additions as optional rather than something you need to plan or save for in advance.
“The smallest things — a tiny sock, a hospital band — hold the biggest love. We treat every piece that way.”
Shilpa Amit Shrivastava, The Art GalaxyFrequently asked questions
Can I add items later to a frame I've already ordered?
No, once a piece is sealed in resin it can't be reopened — decide on the full set of items you want included before we begin.
Is there a minimum number of items required?
No, even a single small item like a hospital band can be preserved on its own at the Basic price point.
Does preserving an umbilical cord cost extra?
It's included in the standard price range as one of the common items in this service, not charged as a separate add-on.
How is this priced compared to Kids/Baby Shoes Preservation?
Baby Memories Preservation (₹2,500–₹10,000) covers a wider range of newborn items; Kids/Baby Shoes Preservation (₹3,500–₹4,500) is specifically for shoes and footprints.
Will courier charges add much to the total?
This depends on your location and the courier service you choose; charges are additional and confirmed separately from the preservation price.
Is it worth waiting to combine several items into one bigger order?
Only if it genuinely suits your budget and timeline — there's no discount for combining, and many parents prefer ordering smaller pieces as items become available rather than waiting months to send everything together.
