15
items Whether it’s a weekend road trip or a flight across the country, these are the travel products we actually used (and loved) as new parents. They made our journey smoother, naps easier, and meltdowns fewer. Trust us—pack these.
It’s a car seat and stroller in one—no setup, no transfers. We zipped through airports and Ubers like pros. Pricey but totally worth the space and stress it saved.
Doona Car Seat & Stroller Travel System 2-in-1 Combo
Our baby slept so well in hotel rooms thanks to this blackout pod. It turns any corner into a private sleep space. Total lifesaver during naps and early bedtimes.
SlumberPod Portable Privacy Pod Blackout Canopy
Perfect for airport walks, sightseeing, and baby naps on the go. It’s breathable, comfortable for long wear, and adjustable enough for both of us to use easily.
Omni Breeze Mesh Baby Carriers
Compact and sleek, this is the one thing I grab from the diaper bag every time. Built-in wipes case, a decent-sized pad, and room for 2 diapers = perfect on the go.
Black Pronto Signature Changing Station
Super small but powerful! Baby sleeps better in strange places when we have our sound machine. Charges via USB-C—huge plus.
Hatch Rest Go - Nap trapped no more
Gave us a clean, flat sleep space for baby wherever we were—beach, park, grandma’s house. So easy to fold and carry.
Munchkin Brica Baby Travel Pod, Grey
Soft, easy to clean, and baby took them without any fuss—even mid-flight. The wide neck makes rinsing and refilling during travel a breeze.
Comotomo Baby Bottle, Green, 5 Ounce, 2 Count
Heated milk with no electricity needed. Just hot water and go. Fit well in the diaper bag and helped a ton during long drives.
Tommee Tippee Portable Travel Baby Bottle Warmer
Our go-to travel sleepwear. Buttery soft, folds into mittens and booties, and double-zipper for easy changes on the plane or in the car.
Goumikids Baby Footie Pajamas Organic
Not fancy, but essential. Held blowout clothes, snack crumbs, pacifiers, and everything in between. Great for organizing chaos.
Freezer Bags | Walmart Canada
Travel = unexpected colds. This little pouch has saline spray, snot sucker, and wipes. Small enough to toss in any bag.
Frida Baby NoseFrida SnotSucker + Case
Toddler LOVED riding it through the airport, and it converted into a mini bed on the plane. Great for long flights and keeping things fun.
Ride-on Suitcase for Kids | Jetkids™ BedBox™ by Stokke®
If you don’t want to pack the Hatch, this is a fantastic alternative. Clips to the stroller or car seat, super long battery life.
Hushh® Compact Sound Machine
Prevents the ‘snack dump’ all over the car seat. Toddler grabs one at a time, I don’t have to vacuum Cheerios after every trip.
Munchkin Snack Catcher Toddler Cups 2 Pack
Mess-free, reusable, and magical for toddlers. My kid was mesmerized for 30 minutes straight on the plane—and that’s saying something.
