My BIGGEST must have when having 2 under 2. The seats are still a good size even for my now 3 year old. Easy click with Graco baby car seats which was a MUST for me. Also obsessed with the step and handles for my toddler. She loves it as much as I do...
Graco® Ready2Grow™ 2.0 Double Stroller
The perfect thing to do when nursing baby just to sit with your toddler while you nurse. Easy to use as a game or as a learning activity!! My toddler would go through her alphabet while baby was nursing but it’s also great for shapes and animals with...
Amazing Flash Cards Set: Alphabet, Numbers, Animals, Colors & Shapes
A bowl that’s easy to clean and suctions down is so important for toddlers but ESPECIALLY when you have to be nursing a baby and you can’t be the one to spoon feed them all the time. Sad but true they have to start learning on their own and a bowl li...
OXO Tot Stick & Stay Suction Bowl - Gray Large
Yall giving toddler their own baby to watch is such a life hack. You have to change, nurse, burp, or rock?? Tell them they have to as well. Doesn’t work every time but it’s definitely helpful!
Enjoyin 12'' Baby Doll Gift Set with Blanket & Bottle
If you don’t have a pack and play definitely consider it. It’s hard to travel anywhere (even family) without some form of crib for at least one of the two (whether it’s toddler or baby). My mom actually keeps one at her place but id be bringing one i...
Graco Pack 'n Play Playard, Oakley
For baby
Getting a good crib that can be a bed for your toddler to practice that transition… but then be used as a crib again for baby once toddler is in a full toddler bed is very nice. Having this option on our crib made the transition from crib to toddler ...

Used with two of my babies and one of my sisters and I’ll be using again. So easy to move, adjust, and take up/ down. Also so much storage!!! I also like the netting cover to keep out bugs or toddler siblings😂
Ihoming Baby Bassinet Bedside Sleeper Gray
So I think having a swing for naps or for while you play with toddler is really really helpful. Even up until baby is sitting. My son just watched us play while sitting in it and he’d sit to look out the window while I cooked dinner or put my toddler...
UPPAbaby Mamaroo Smart Swing Charlie
Best teether for both a baby and a teething toddler. So easy to grip they drop wayyyy less often. The arms are the perfect chewing/sucking size. Absolutely love and will use again
PandaEar 2 Pack Silicone Teething Toys Set
Getting a simple looking tummy time mat that wasn’t toooo exciting for the toddler but exciting enough for baby was a good strategy. Kind of helps give baby its own bubble for tummy time to keep toddler away from it too!! Super helpful for when baby ...

A camera that’s not $200 but still gives you the security and comfort of being able to check on your little toddler during naps (especially good for when you are stopping co sleeping!)
Laxihub Indoor Security Camera P2 1080P FHD
So I didn’t get a Solly baby one but I have the same design and it is a MUST to have some form of baby wearing with 2 under 2. This was so easy to put on and baby would nap comfortably in there while cooking, on walks, grocery shopping etc. even to t...
Baby Wrap Carrier for Newborns | Babywearing Wraps
This was a requirement for my second. Both my kids were solely breastfed but I couldn’t get my first to take a bottle. With these ones my second took right away and he loved them. I loved how compact they were we never needed anything bigger. They we...
Avent Glass Natural Response Baby Bottle SCY910/03
Toddlers are loud. It is a very good idea to Have some form of white noise for baby during naps (more when they’re 6 mo+ not really as much in nb stage). White noise keeps baby happily asleep and leaves you to worry less about having a silent toddler...

By far my favourite blanket for swaddling and for burping baby. They’re breathable, stretchy, absorbent and the only blanket I could ever successfully swaddle with😅 I have about six of these that I rotate throughout the week. They’re also quite big ...
GLLQUEN BABY Muslin Swaddle Blanket 40x38
Thankfully we are in a bungalow but we definetly would’ve required a strong baby gate at the top of any stairs. My son was crawling at five months and my daughter is a very independent girly so watching them both at the same time with stairs would’ve...
