items Right now, co-parenting means giving a list of needs instead of requesting money. He shops from my list, and my needs get met. SO, here's your cheat sheet for a two-year-old. Commissions Earned.

Basics
Things around the house, toothpaste, detergent, socks, and necessities that run out and are good to have.
Because his socks keep shrinking and disappearing! I’ve finally realized I need to buy a size up, so 2T-4T instead of a 2T sock. That way he has room to grow and they just fit him more the more I wash them. These are also super soft.
Toddler Socks, 16 Pairs Low Cut
The only soap that my super sensitive skin and post partum nose can tolerate, also good for baby, bubble baths, and his hair. It’s very thin, but does the job even if you’re adding it to the water and wiping with microfiber.
The Honest Company Shampoo & Body Wash, Tear-Free, Fragrance-Free, 10 fl oz | Hypoallergenic, Naturally Derived. Gentle For Baby's Sensitive Skin.
Brands keep selling out and going from healthy to not, appearantly this one is till safe. :)
Dr. Brown's Fluoride-Free Baby Toothpaste, Strawberry, 1-Pack
Something we always think about, but somehow when it comes to childsupport it becomes the standard when it should be a side bar to the basics. I like Parents Choice and Honest because they aren’t scented and they fit. Overly scented pull ups can disr...
Honest Pullups - Cotton, Disposable
Look, I started with Hiya night chews and naps. A lot of doctors don’t support melatonin too early, and Hiya has a bedtime chew for 1year olds and up! This is for over 2, but please check. Bedtime and naptime has gotten so much easier since. It's not...
Hyland's Kids Sleep + Immune Support 4oz
Sippy Cup + Plastic Dish Cleaner. It's more gentle than regular washes, and great for cleaning fruits without worrying about residual soap.
Dapple Baby Fragrance Free Bottle & Dish Soap 16.9oz 3 Pack
Easy to tuck away, lasting, and guilt free for his never-ending laundry. I like the scent free sensitive detergents; it takes away the concern for rashes.
Poesie Laundry Detergent Sheets Fresh 160ct
These are great for errands, the park, and the car. They keep baby clean between snacks and doctors appointments when washrooms aren't available.
Fomin Flushable Travel Wipes 8 Pack, 64 Ct
Sensitive skin friendly, and in BULK. No more 3 packs of wipes here and there.
Amazon Elements Baby Wipes Unscented 810ct
Snacks + Purees
This is more specific than just saying “Food/Grocery Money”. Making a list of what your child regularly eats on Instacart, Amazon, or wherever makes it clear why it costs and what is going towards baby. Yes, greek yogurt is actually $6. Chocolate syr...
Nap and Bedtime are concrete in this house because mommy needs her brain. Hiya makes melatonin free, magnesium based sleep chews. I started by crushing and putting them in his apple juice before bed/naps, but now he just eats it.
Sleep Gummies (Safe for 1 year old) No Melatonin, plus my multivitmains
These are the same ones that used to come in that carnival box with the string, and toddlers love them.
Car Snacks: BARNUM'S Original Animal Crackers, 10 Packs
If you're wondering how to introduce that food, start here. I now have a pancake and sandwhich eater.
Amazon Grocery Hazelnut Cocoa Spread 26.5oz
This + Blender = Guilt-Free Ice Cream that makes the LO Poo. :)
365 Organic Tropical Fruit Medley, 32 oz
On the go snacks, quick, usually clean, and he puts the top back on when he's done.
Amazon Grocery Apple Sauce Pouches Variety 12ct
I bribe my son to get in his car seat and I’m not afraid to say it.

For traveling with snacks, packing lunches, storing dirty wipes on the go, packing food while out, etc.
Amazon Basics Reclosable Double Zipper Sandwich Bags, BPA Free, 100 Count
My referal code is JAHYAL13C9F if you want $10 off your first order. You don't have to be a member to get discounts on delivery, but I am and it has made being a single mom SO. SIMPLE. I get Aldis almost every time so no pickup fees and no delivery f...
Instacart - Grocery shopping delivery without the upcharge/fees.
Daycare Needs + Gifts From Dad
Having a child in daycare means two things: you will always need two copies of everything, and you will now have random expenses come up due to parent FOMO and anxiety. This list compensates for that.
We have the little sippy cups, but he needs one for daycare and this one is a little bigger for water and things.
Munchkin Sippy Cups for Toddlers 1-3, Spill Proof Miracle 360 Cup, 10 Ounce, 2 Pack, Black/White
I don't care if there's no feild trip, he will have one pinned to his shirt.
Apple AirTag 2nd Gen Tracker for Keys & Wallet
For the airtag. These are pretty discrete if you know where to pin them.
Airtag Hidden Holder for Kids, 4 Pack
Because Nap time is code for cryogenic therapy these days, and winter is coming.
Toddler Nap Mat with Pillow & Minky Blanket
This beats having your spare clothes in a Ziploc bag every time you have to bring them, and it keeps the *accidents* separate from the clean clothes if you get two.
Large Packing Cube for Travel
