Some professionals said pillows are not recommended for children under 2 but it is about adult standard pillows not child supporting pillows.
During first year of life our baby’s development phases include brain development and correctly selected pillows could strengthen blood circulation of brain and promote healthy baby growth. If you choose just beautiful but improper baby pillow, it could affect the physiological functions of head and neck as well as could cause some developmental deformity.

During first 3 months when newborn baby lies low, his back and the back of the head are in the same plane, his neck and back muscles are relaxed naturally. It is well known that usually baby’s head is big and almost as wide as baby’s shoulder. This is why during first 3 months there is no need to use a pillow for baby.
After 3 months babies start to learn raising head – the he cervical spine appeared the physical forward bend. Therefore, in order to maintain physiological bending and keep a comfortable body posture, baby starts using pillow 3 months after he was born.
Try to avoid feather pillows because they are very soft, can trigger allergies and they can smother a child if his head sinks into feather pillow while he is sleeping.
