Having multiple bath sets can come in handy when you’re not completely on top of laundry. And this Simple Joy’s bundle offers a lot of linens: five washcloths, two hooded towels and one regular towel. Available in four fun themes, each item is crafted from a soft cotton-polyester blend.

Ruvalino Diaper Bag Backpack

$70

Ruvalino’s backpack has a simple design that makes it easy to repurpose when your diapering days are over. It features two large compartments for storing diapers, wipes, the included changing pad and more, as well as an insulated front pocket to keep bottles at the ideal temperature. There are 16 pockets throughout the bag to help you stay organized. The bag’s opening is large enough so you can easily find what you need, but not so large that it requires two hands to open.

Nanit Pro Smart Baby Monitor

$300

The right baby monitor should alleviate your anxiety, not add to it, which is why we love the Nanit Plus. One of the most advanced baby monitors on the market, the Nanit Pro offers high-definition footage and two-way audio so you can have clear eyes and ears on your baby while they sleep. The monitor connects to the Nanit app, allowing you to check on your baby from anywhere. The app also tracks your baby’s sleep habits and provides custom guidance to help them get the best rest. 

Parent Reviews

"I have it, I love it even though my baby isn't sleeping in her crib at night yet. Gives me good peace of mind when leaving her in there to nap or sleep." — cheriberri

"We have it. We had one issue in the beginning where it wouldn’t connect to the network but it was under a year so we got it swapped out and now it works perfectly with no issues. We don’t even use the band feature but I still love it! Video and audio quality is great. It also has like this built in sound machine so we play the wind sound throughout the night." — christinaalanis

Willow Wearable Breast Pump

$500

Pumping is a true time suck (pun intended), as more traditional breast pumps must be connected to an outlet to work. Enter Willow’s wearable pump. The hospital-grade device slips right into your nursing bra, so you can express and collect milk while tackling chores around the house—or just sitting away from an outlet. Leak-proof and easy-to-assemble, the pump connects to an app that allows you to control suction levels and timing, as well as track your sessions. 

Parent Reviews

"I have the Willow. It is VERY convenient and has gotten me out of numerous sticky situations. With that being said, it it doesn’t remove milk as efficiently as my Medela pump I got with insurance. Also, it holds max 4oz so if you pump more than that, you have to change the bags. Bags are also expensive and you have to use their brand unless you buy an additional part that you pump directly into. So I wouldn’t use it as a primary pump but I’ve been in situations where I’m glad I had it"." — sfauch1

"I got the willow pump and it’s been amazing. You can choose between bags or reusable containers. I use the containers. It’s a learning curve and takes a while, but now i wouldn’t be able to function without them.for the willow, same as the elvie; don’t bend down too much forward as it can leak. And there is a "flip to finish" function that needs to be done after every pump session otherwise you can lose milk." — jormrmr

Hatch Rest+

$90

A sound machine can help your baby transition from the womb, where they were exposed to constant whooshing sounds. But the Hatch Rest+ does more than play soothing sounds for your baby. The bluetooth-controlled device can be used as a multi-colored nightlight or two-way audio monitor. An additional perk is the ability to program the Hatch Rest+ to display certain colored lights and play specific sounds at designated times throughout the day. Parents of older children find this useful to help transition kids from asleep to awake, and vice versa. All of this can be done via the Hatch app on your phone. 

Parent Reviews

"I’ve tried so many with my 6 and 3 yr old. By far buy it. You can set time limits due awake snd naps.which is great when they are older. The light is bright enough to do diaper changes at night but not too bright." — cmays23 

"We opted for the plus because of: Alexa integration (tricky, but awesome once it's set up). I like the idea of using it hands free. We have echos and dots in almost every room, so I can change my presets without going into the app or messing with the unit. (I can walk by the bathroom onto the way to the baby's room and tell Alexa to turn on x preset for late night diaper changes or feedings when I need a different/brighter light, for example.); Backup battery (8ish hours).; On board clock; Wifi as opposed to bluetooth. I hear a lot of complaints with the range of bluetooth and as long as you have decent, reliable internet, this elimates that issue." — motherofwolves17

Munchkin UV Diaper Pail

$130

Most diaper pails mask the inevitable diaper odors, but the Munchkin UV Diaper Pail takes it a step further. Whenever you close the lid, four hospital-grade UV lights work to disinfect and eliminate an array of germs and bacteria. If you’re worried about potential UV exposure, rest assured the system shuts off once the lid is open. And the pail is compatible with Munchkin bags, so refilling is easy. 

Parent Reviews

"This Munchkin UV is the diaper pail of my dreams! I am using it for wee wee pads for my elderly dogs. I used to bag them and tie off the bags, but they still leaked some odor. With this Munchkin, I can open the lid with my foot, put the pad in, and as I close the lid, it automatically twists the bag to seal off odor. Then the UV light goes to work killing bacteria in the top area, and I smell nothing. It may be the most expensive diaper pail on the market, but just bite the bullet and treat yourself to the best. You won't be sorry."

CYBEX Sirona S with SensorSafe

$500

Parents rave over the Cybex Sirona, the first car seat to feature a 360-degree rotatable seat, which makes it easy to switch from rear- to forward-facing. It also has SensorSafe technology built into the chest clip that gives you a heads up via the app if your child unbuckles themselves, if your child’s been seated too long, if your child’s been left in the car, or if the back seat becomes too hot or cold. Cool, right?

Parent Reviews

"I have the Cybex Sirona and really like it. It’s comfortable for baby and extremely safe, which is what matters to me. It was somewhat of a pain to install so I don’t recommend it if you plan to switch cars often but otherwise it is great. Love the SensorSafe feature and all the reminders. Didn’t have any issues with the swivel feature. My car is not small so I can’t say anything about that but we have been using it for 4 months and are happy with it." — GreyhoundMom83

"We have the Cybex Sirona S and we absolutely LOVE it! The fact that it rotates is a game changer. It’s super easy and effortless getting baby in and out of the car seat. Also, the Sensor Safe technology is amazing. It will let you know if the baby is unbuckled, if he’s too hot in the seat, and If you step out of the car for longer than a minute, it will send an alert that the baby is still in the car seat. We are really happy with this purchase and highly recommend it." — darakay1

4moms Mamaroo Infant Swing

$300

Many babies are soothed by a rocking motion, and will instantly scream the minute you set them down to do a chore. (Or, you know, pee.) This is where the Mamaroo comes in handy. Unlike other swings and bouncers, which require a parent’s push to keep things moving, the Mamaroo starts with just the touch of a button. The swing offers five movements—rocking, bouncing, swinging, car ride, and wave—as well as five speed options and four built-in sounds to amp up the level of soothing. And, for the super techy, you can pair the Mamaroo with your bluetooth or Alexa for even more hands-off control. As with any swing it should not be used unsupervised nor should it be used as a place for a baby to nap. If they fall asleep, make sure to transfer them to a safe sleep space. 

Parent Reviews

"I’m having baby #3 and it was a huge hit with baby #1 and #2. It totally saved our sanity and was the one piece of baby gear both of them loved and would happily sit in. It has been 100% worth it for us. We’ve never purchased another type of swing and just use the Mamaroo and have a lightweight bouncer for when we shower or move around the house etc."

"Ours was a lifesaver! On a few desperate nights he slept in it right next to my bed. Like others have said it really only lasts until they start trying to roll or sit up in it. But for me it was a no brainer to get one for our second. I bought my second hand, as the full price tag seems over the top."

Munchkin Digital Bottle Warmer

$53

Warming your baby’s bottle is something you’ll have to often and, occasionally, away from your home. And sometimes hot water just isn’t enough or even accessible. Fortunately, Munchkin’s battery-powered bottle warmer makes it easy to heat breast milk or formula on the go. Compatible with most major bottle brands, including Avent and Dr. Brown and Medela with the addition adapter, the device heats your baby’s bottle to 98.6 degree in mere minutes and holds the temperature for 30 minutes. 

Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug

$129

Sleep is one thing you can almost guarantee you’ll be short on during those first few months as a parent, and during this time a warm cup of coffee just might be your saving grace. Parents rave over this temperature-controlled mug that connects to your smartphone and reheats your beverages on command. It also has an auto-sleep feature that intelligently senses when to turn on or off, and shuts off automatically after two hours of inactivity.

Parent Reviews

"As a mom and full time student coffee is a must! I got this as a gift for mother's day and I love it! I normally don't have time to finish my coffee before it's cold then it usually gets dumped. This mug keeps coffee warm so I can actually drink it!"

Baby Shusher The Sleep Miracle Sound Machine

$35

Your baby may be more soothed by your voice rather than white noise, but you don’t want to go hoarse. That’s what makes the Baby Shusher such a great find: it plays the sound of a human shushing to lull your baby to sleep. You can choose between 15- or 30-minute play times and adjust the volume to suit your baby’s preference. 

Parent Reviews

"we use it everyday. I have to walk my baby around with this thing in my pocket to get her to sleep. We also put it in her stroller when out and about." — amandadance95

"Ive used it with all my kids. Its great for fussy periods or when out and about but wouldnt use it for naps/nighttime as it shuts off and kids wake up." — justGigi

VAVA Smart Baby Thermometer

$75

A temperature spike can be incredibly worrisome, especially if it’s your baby’s first fever. But the VAVA Smart Baby Thermometer may help put parents at ease so they can rest. The wireless thermometer is paired with a silicone patch that adheres to your baby’s armpit for monitoring. The thermometer will blink and beep if your child’s temperature rises to or above the programmed number. It also notifies you if the patch has fallen off your child or if the connection is weak.  The rechargeable device has a 24-hour battery life, so don’t have to worry about it dying in the middle of the night. 

Parent Reviews

"We love and use the Vava Smart Baby Thermometer. The thermometer has a wearable patch that sits below the armpit to track their real-time temperature. No need to wake them up once it's applied." — alwayspreggo

"Vava stick on thermometer! It alerts you if their fever spikes. One of the best purchases I’ve made for peace of mind" — newma2021

CYBEX e-PRIAM Chrome Stroller

$1,000

Not only is this stroller sleek and stylish, but it also assists on your walks. Its handlebar features sensors that detect when you’re moving uphill or downhill, and adjust the support to minimize strain. Meanwhile, the stroller’s Uneven Surface Assist adjusts wheels and other elements to ensure a smooth ride no matter the terrain. If that weren’t enough, the stroller has three rocking settings that gently move your baby even when you’re parked in place. 

Parent Reviews

"I have the cybex Priam and love it. Mine lays flat and was suitable from newborn but we used a baby capsule as the pram came with adaptors for our maxi Cosi. So many good features about this pram. My son is very tall and still fits in it at almost 3yo (about 41in) and loves the laying option. Basket is good but you can’t access it from the front. Can be a bit big for some boots." — mumof2mrsA

"I have the Cybex Priam for my daughter (she’s now 2) and I absolutely love it. I don’t know where you live but we visited the baby nest London showroom in Croydon where we were given demos of all sorts of brands including icandy and bugaboo and we went with the priam based on that. I had lots of compliments on it from mum friends who struggled with basket size, while I had plenty and the size of the pram/bassinet it great, my little girl was still comfy in hers while other kids in the nct group were outgrowing theirs and having to "upgrade" to the seat a bit earlier than they had wanted." — charlotte143

Hatch Baby Grow Smart Changing Pad and Scale

$150

Some babies have trouble putting on weight in those early days, which can be worrisome for parents. Although your pediatrician will schedule frequent visits to monitor the situation, this combination changing pad and scale can help you track the progress at home. Unlike most scales, Hatch’s device is made of a soft, structured foam that’s comfortable and easy to wipe clean. The scale pairs with the free Grow app to record your baby’s weight. You can also use the app to track feedings, which will be useful information to have at your pediatrician’s visits. 

Parent Reviews

"The Hatch saved my sanity for the first few weeks when my baby dropped weight after bringing him home. I love this change pad/scale and the app is great too for tracking everything. Worth every penny in my opinion!" — aecanning

"Our baby had jaundice and was borderline losing too much weight so our hatch scale came in handy! I wasn’t sure how much I would use it but it was amazing to have when we needed it and the app is great too. Now I only weigh her occasionally but it’s fun to know! As a changing pad itself it’s a little hard but we just keep it covered with a muslin blanket" — cdeaky11

Parent Reviews

"We searched high and low to find the perfect chair for our nursery and ended up taking a gamble on this chair without testing it out before buying it. We are so happy we decided to go with this chair! It’s stylish, functional and most importantly comfortable! The electric recline is smooth and very quiet, the adjustable head support is a great added feature that I never knew I needed but I’m so glad to have it! The chair is nice and spacious and the back high enough for us taller folks. The chair was so easy to put together and shipping was extremely fast! Would highly recommend this chair to anyone looking for a quality glider, you won’t regret it!"

FridaBaby Electric NoseFrida

$45

Rather than relying on your mouth to suck out debris, FridaBaby’s newer device uses three levels of electric-powered suction to clean out your baby’s nostrils. Rechargeable and easy-to-hold, there is also a light attached to the NoseFrida that calms and distracts squirmy babies. 

Parent Reviews

"My husband and I had the original that you manually sucked the boogies out and that worked great but this electric one!! It works so much better and you don’t have to feel like you’re going to vomit afterwards. I 100% recommend, I have a 9 day old son that we use it on. Works every time. Buy it!" — mamabearggb

"We use this in our baby’s nursery And it has been great. It has three different thin speeds, and the sound makes for a nice white noise while she sleeps. There is a glow on the air purifier that can be turned off with the touch of a button or it makes a nice night light depending on where you have it"

"Love this product, it really does work! It does make a loud noise when fan is on high. However my baby doesnt seems to mind and sleeps soundly when air purifier is running. Will definately be buying again but this time as a gift for another mom!"

Mallify Activity Center with Play Mat

$54

It's super easy to set up and break down, which makes it great for travel.

"We love it and use it daily. We even packed just the bars with the toys and took it on vacation with us. I do recommend the sensory strands add on. The play mat will keep our baby busy for an entire wake window if I let it."

Parent Reviews

"If you are going for that bohemian feel these are perfect. They are so cute and the colors I was looking for. I do have textured walls and it does make it more difficult to apply but they are still sticking fine. If you also have textured walls these might not be the best option but if you do decided to get them make sure you put pressure on every crevice of the rainbows for ultimate 'stick.'" — Amber T

"This is a well-designed, great looking bassinet. The breathable mesh siding is essential for cradles. I've found my baby with her face against the side many times while rooting for food. It's also nice to have the slight transparency when you're several feet away."

Parent Reviews

"I got one used for my firstborn and I love it! It would be nearly impossible to topple. I did not use it with her until she was a little older though so I didn't use the seat attachment. She is 3 and still uses it every day, we just adjusted it. Love: Adjustable and useful for years, attractive, goes right up to the table so she feels "a part of" meals not separate, and it takes up less space than big plastic chairs. Only downside is it's a bit harder to clean than a plastic chair, but I still think it's worth it." — lunalovegood19

Boon NURSH 8 oz. Silicone Pouch Bottle

$25 for 3

Parents love these bottles for their sleek design and ease of use.. They have a silicone pouch that collapses as your baby drinks, which cuts down on the amount of air your baby takes in and results in less burping, gas and overall discomfort. They can be placed in the dishwasher for easy cleaning, and some parents find that babies have an easier time holding them. 

Parent Reviews

"Our little fella is nearly 6 months and we're encouraging him to hold his bottle. The shape of the bottle made it intuitive for him to place his hands on either side and hold it himself. He did this immediately! Compared to the Dr. Brown's nipples, it also looks like a more natural latch"

"Love these bottles. Switched from breast to these bottles when my baby was 6 months old. She took to them quickly and they are easy to clean and she can hold them herself easily. Insert collapses as she drinks so there is less air to give her gas after a feed. Really like. Only con would be that the oz/ml are difficult to read in the side of the bottle as the writing is clear. Especially Difficult to fill at night."

$10 for 2

Mini Tudou Stacking & Teething Rings

$20

Each set comes with six rings for your baby to stack, which can help foster your baby's fine motor skills. They also double as teethers, so you can let your baby chomp away at them worry-free. 

Parent Reviews

"Loved the colors and textures. We used them as part of our baby shower centerpieces before adding them to the nursery!"

"My 7 month old loves biting on these! He's still too young to realize that he can stack them but he loves playing with and biting them one at a time."

Zutano Fleece Baby Booties

$18+

You'll probably find that your baby needs his first pair of shoes well before he's even walking around—and these are the perfect first pair. Not only are they super soft and easy to put on, thanks to a simple design and a button closure, but they also stay on unlike so many other baby shoes. They come in just about every color—more than 35 shades!

Parent Reviews

"These are wonderful newborn shoes. They are soft, warm and STAY ON. I've tried several different types of socks for newborns and somehow one sock or the other was constantly falling off. These booties snap on and stay on. I love that these do not have any of the grippers on the bottom so they really are meant for little feet. I will be purchasing more of these in different colors and sizes."

"These are great for keeping your baby's feet warm, as well as protected from potential blisters. My daughter got a blister from rubbing and kicking her feet, but ever since I put these on her we haven't had any issues. I've already bought the next size up because I like them so much. My only complaint is that they're a little pricey for crib shoes."

$23+

Holm Airport Car Seat Stroller Travel Cart and Child Transporter

$71

One of the most challenging aspects of traveling with kids, especially babies, is all the gear you need to lug around with you. This travel cart simplifies that. With smooth silicone gel wheels, it lightens the load of transporting heavy gear, like strollers and car seats. It also folds flat to fit  under your seat or in the overhead compartment of a plane. Keep in mind, however, that it is not compatible with all car seats and should never carry more than 70 pounds. 

Parent Reviews

"This made traveling with a car seat and toddler so much easier!! I traveled solo so I needed to be able to move my son’s car seat and him around while handling luggage and carry-on; this allowed me to do that! The set-up was very easy and taking it off in the plane so I could but the car seat in the seat was easy. It folded up very easily and went right under the seat in front of us."

"Overall great product!. It is very easy to use and light weight. It was used to chauffeur my two 2 year old toddler throughout airports . I wish it was it was maybe a few inches wider to support the larger car seats."

UPPAbaby MINU V2 Stroller

$450

There are so many travel strollers to choose from, but moms have a lot to rave about when it comes to the UPPAbaby Minu V2. At just under 17 pounds, the lightweight stroller’s one-hand system makes it easy to fold and store in a car or on a plane. It has all the features of a standard stroller, including a 5-point harness, multi-position reclining seat, and a large easy-to-access basket to keep essentials while you’re on the go. You can even purchase the "From Birth Kit" so you can use the stroller as soon as the baby is born. You can opt to check this stroller pre-security or gate check it, a process that allows you to use it right up until you board the plane. You just have to place a tag on it and leave it right by the side of the plane before you enter. Once the plane lands at your final destination, the crew will bring your stroller right where you left it.

"Love my Minu! We have it in paris (everyone else has a yoyo!) and it handles great on the cobbles and the rough pathways in the parks." — LucyMc

Motif Luna Double Electric Breast Pump

$177

Community parents are big fans of this affordable breast pump that’s most often covered by insurance. It provides a strong suction with the promise of getting more milk in less time. It has backflow protection to ensure that both the motor and the tubing remain clean and a two-year warranty for the main pump should it break. Though it’s not wireless like other breast pumps, it takes up less space in your bag, freeing up room for other essentials. 

Parent Reviews

"My insurance included it as an option. It’s the first pump I’ve used, and I love it. I really like that mine came with the pump and its parts plus leak pads and storage bags. My husband was feeding LO while I was gone and put the ring and nipple for a Phillips Avent bottle on the storage bottle, and it fit. I know some brands are compatible, but it was a unexpected perk to learn ours were." — tnmama20

"I have the Luna motif ( the battery one) and i Love it!!! It’s super quiet, love the massage ( aka letdown mode) and the night light! Also like other said, it uses the spectra parts. I also ordered adapters where it pumps right into my comotomo bottles ( i use comotomo bc i also haakaa. The gen 3 haakka and the tops of comotomo bottles- the ring and nipple- fit the haakaa part. So whether I’m pumping into the bottle or feeding her letdown from the haaka, I’m using all the same nipples to feed!). I only pump 10 mins- 2 of massage and 8 of pump and i get easily 4-6 oz each breast! I’ve been doing this and i pump 1-2x a day, she’s 7 weeks old and I’ve needed to Recharge 1x!!" — Babydust2019fl

Heck, you can even store your own snacks to prevent travel-induced hanger. 

Parent Reviews

"I pre measure out distilled water in bottles and bring a formula dispenser (I have the Skip Hop one) with the formula premeasuered, so that I can quickly mix a bottle while out. If possible, I try to warm the water slightly before mixing, but otherwise I do room temp. I don’t pre-prepare because my baby isn’t a fan of cool or cold formula."

"This was a great buy for the price and how many pieces come with it. It’s the ultimate travel kit to have without having to pack individual containers. My favorite price is the stackable. They are so cool and you can mix them too! It’s great for any age child it grows with them. I sometimes put graham crackers at the top, fresh fruit in the middle and water at the bottom especially for on the go days or even just running to the store. It’s travel snacks on hand."

Parent Reviews

"Honestly was pretty skeptical about this product as it’s not electric or anything but when I say it works, IT WORKS! We live in a colder area and we filled this thing with hot water from the kettle, walked around at the fairgrounds, and then baby girl got fussy and wanted a bottle. The water inside was SCALDING still from the kettle. . . 10/10 recommend, just make sure the lid is screwed on tight and test for leakage with each use!!!"

"I love the cushion shoulders and the lumbar support. It goes from newborn to 60lbs! It has pockets. It is designed to not lead to hip dysplasia which runs on both sides of my family. You can do many different positions hence the name 6 in 1."

"I have a lillebaby complete all seasons and I love it. It is actually my husband’s carrier because I have a couple. If you want to to be soft or ‘floppy’ you do need to wear it some or wash it. But after a few wears mine is comfortably soft! You can even ‘wear’ it before the baby comes if you want to break it in. Any carrier with mesh and even some without will need to be broken in to be soft. And lillebaby customer service is great!"

"We love our Baby Bjorn travel crib. We’ve used it several times so far. It’s light and compact, easy to carry, quick to set up and break down, and our daughter sleeps well in it. We bought ours with the fitted sheet but we’ve also found other spare sheets from other manufacturers that’s fit it well too." — bearsnacks

Parent Reviews

"The SlumberPod is a literally NECESSITY for traveling now that we have experienced using it with our 11 month old! We were on a trip last month that had 3 different stops, visiting relatives on either end of the week and the beach in the middle where we were in a shared hotel room. His sleep was entirely uninterrupted between naps and sleeping through the night despite changing his sleep environment 3x in a week period." — tbsween7121

"Our sleep pod is the most amazing thing ever invented. Cottage, grandparents, friends and families places. You can fit a camera in the pocket so I can watch him, but also flash my flashlight on my phone when going to bed without disturbing him. We bring a portable white noise. Game changer." — BabyMcSS

Parent Reviews

"We have the infant optics DXR-8. I consider it to be travel friendly because it doesn’t use WiFi. All you have to do is plug it in, and it’s ready to go. The range for the monitor is pretty good too. We live in an apartment with only one floor, but just to test it one night I took it outside while I walked the dog. The signal was still picked up pretty far away!" — moondog

"I have the infant optics and really like it! We’ve had it for almost 4 years. I think I’ve replaced the battery once, and that was about two or so years ago. I love that it doesn’t use Wi-Fi and it’s easy to travel with because of that." — MiaS2018

$19

You’re bound to have bottles to clean and dry on your trip, especially if you limit how many you bring. This travel drying rack streamlines the process. Compact in size, it has the same "grass" blades as the regular Boon Drying Rack, which help keep items upright for more efficient drying. It comes with two brushes, which can be easily stored in the foldable rack. 

Parent Reviews

"Love mine and use it every day!! I exclusively pump so there’s constantly pump parts sitting on it! And to wash I just put in it the top rack of the dishwasher which is easy and sanitary! Would definitely buy again."

"We have the large Boon Lawn at home and it's one of my favorite things, so when it came time to visit my mom out-of-state this little set came into play. I wasn't sure if we'd need to stop at a hotel along the way, so it seemed a necessity. The set folds up really nicely. When I first got it, I wasn't sure that the size of it would work out because I was used to the big lawn. It worked fine. I brought 4 bottles and a jug to mix formula in. It handled the 4 bottles and all the parts well and the jug was easily rotated in. If I wasn't so picky about spreading things out to dry thoroughly, it probably would have handled all of it fine."
