Birth rates in the Czech Republic have been declining in recent years. In 2023, approximately 91,000 children were born, which is a significant drop compared to almost 112,000 in 2021. This trend reflects broader changes in society and the lifestyles of young families.

Why Are Fewer Children Being Born?

One major reason is that people are starting families later in life. This is often due to longer studies, challenges entering the job market, or difficulties finding stable housing. There are also fewer women of childbearing age, a natural outcome of demographic changes since 1989.

However, this doesn’t mean parents today are less attentive. On the contrary – they tend to plan more carefully, invest more in quality and care, and have better access to information and products that support healthy baby development.

How Does This Affect Everyday Life?

Although fewer children are being born overall, each baby is now seen as a true treasure. Parents are more selective when choosing baby gear, diapers, or clothing – with a clear focus on quality, safety, and comfort.

At T-TOMI, we see this every day. Parents want only the best – whether it’s cloth diapers, baby towels, or practical essentials. Times are changing, but love for children remains strong.

And What About the Rest of the World?

A similar trend is visible in many European countries – such as Germany, Italy, and Spain. But there are also positive examples, like the Nordic countries or France, where strong family support helps maintain higher birth rates. Even in the Czech Republic, parenthood continues to be a strong and cherished value.
