Babycore is an aesthetic that involves "pastel" or "cute" childlike innocence. This aesthetic leans toward softer, more Kawaii elements, and is differentiated from Kidcore through its usage of lighter colors and visuals typically reserved for babies and toddlers.
Visual
There is a small but significant divide in the Babycore aesthetic community between soft, simple, very light-colored visuals, and plastic, cluttered, colorful visuals. These two sections of the community are not different enough to become their own unique aesthetics; they are united as a community by their shared values of childlikeness, innocence, and "cuteness", and visually by the use of pastels, infants' and children's items.

Fashion
Babycore does not necessarily focus on infant-like style (although some may choose to wear onesies and diapers).
It leans more towards "girly" toddler fashion such as:
- Babydoll/Lolita dresses
- Mary-janes
- Barrettes
- Ribbed Socks
- Character Onesies
- Bonnets
- Sweaters
- Overalls
- Ribbons
But however, although it is leaned towards more "girly-like features" there is boy outfits out there:
- Ribbed Socks
- Character Onesies
- Sweaters
- Overalls
- Jeans
- T-shirts
- Character T-shirts
