Okay mama—in my last post I shared some top POSTPARTUM MUST-HAVES FOR MOM, but now it’s time to talk about your little ones!

If you’re anything like me, then finding products that are safe, healthy, and well-made are important when choosing what you use for your baby. After some research, and a ton of trail and error, I have landed on a few ultimate must-haves that I think every mama should own.

Bob Rambler Jogging Stroller

For busy, active mamas, this is the perfect stroller! I love how easy it is to use, and that it can traverse all kinds of terrain. It is easy to take on walks, runs, and even some hikes with nicely cleared paths. The Bob is also perfect for transitioning from those early morning runs, to coffee and shopping walks with your girlfriends in the afternoon.

You can buy the Bob car seat (and attachment bar) that makes the stroller adaptable from the newborn phase to toddlerhood. Talk about versatile!

Bumbo Multi Seat

This seat is perfect for active babies, and for mamas who need some extra hands! I have used this seat with my little one for everything from eating, to art projects, and play time. It has become a favorite for letting baby play while I am in the kitchen prepping food. The Bumbo allows baby to be close, and gives them a little more freedom than sitting in a high chair. It’s easy to move from one spot to another, and helps baby work on their core muscles for sitting.

This particular seat is for babies six months and up, but they also have others in their product line for those that are younger and older.

Newton Crib and Toddler Bed Mattress

I cannot tell you how comforting it is as a mom, especially during the newborn phase, to know that my baby is sleeping on a safe, comfortable, and quality mattress. The Newton mattress is fully breathable, washable, and is made from recycled materials. It is definitely a bit pricey, but totally worth all the benefits! Sleep can cause a lot of stress for so many reasons, which makes investing in this mattress a must. Any way that we can eliminate those worries, it’s wroth it in my book!

Kid Co Folding Travel Chair

Perfect for camping, outdoor play, and even to move around the house from room to room! I love that this chair is easy to use, well-made, and is perfect for infants and toddlers.

Indestructible Book Series

Reading to your baby, even just after they are born, is highly recommended for infant development. There are so many benefits to hearing your voice, seeing shapes and colors, and for quality bonding time. It’s so fun as your baby gets older, to see them starting to engage with story time by wanting to hold the book themselves. But you know, everything baby gets their hands on, tends to make it to their mouth. And while it’s important for them to explore this way, destroying those books you spent a good deal of money on is not so awesome.

That is why I love the Indestructible book series, especially for infants and toddlers! They are rip, water, and chew proof. Plus they are washable! And the best part is, the stories are wonderfully written and illustrated too! There are so many different options, and some bilingual options as well which is amazing for young readers.

VTech Baby Peek and Play Book

Fun, interactive, and perfect to keep baby busy! This book has great music, is soft and easy for baby to use, plus I really enjoy that it has a clip that allows you to hook it onto a carset, high chair strap etc—no more having to pick up toys every two minutes.

Wellements Product Line

Dapple Baby Bottle and Dish Soap

I don’t think I need to say much— again, this is a favorite product simply because it works and it has such clean ingredients. It is fragrance free, hypoallergenic, and plant-based. I use this on everything from baby bottles, to dishes, and breast pump parts!

Honest Company Baby Lotion

Your baby’s skin is so delicate, thin, and sensitive in those first few months after birth—which is why it is important to consider the ingredients in the products you are putting on your baby’s skin. Look for something that is natural and has very few added ingredients. This particular lotion is a favorite find! Very clean, ultra moisturizing and perfect for baby beyond just the first few months. Oh, and it smells amazing!

I also love the shampoo and body wash so I linked those here as well! No tears, smells amazing, and gentle on baby’s skin—plus great ingredients so you can’t go wrong!

Earth Mama Baby Face, Nose, and Cheek Balm

I adore this product because not only does it work, but it is also made with clean, safe ingredients and performs really well on sensitive skin. I have one on hand at all times!

Jambini Magnetic Cabinet Locks

Find peace of mind by locking up all those hazardous products and keeping baby out of those doors you don’t want them to have access to. I love these magnetic locks because they work, but they also stay hidden inside your cabinet so you don’t have to worry about ugly aesthetics. They are easy to install and won’t ruin your beautiful cabinetry—simply remove them when baby gets old enough, as if they were never there!

This list is far from all-inclusive when it comes to the baby products I love, but these are definitely some of my top must-haves. I will continue to share more with you in the future mama. For now, I hope you find some of these useful to add to your own toolbox! If you have specific questions or want more recommendations on a particular topic, leave me a note in the comments.

Happy shopping!
