Make your life easier
Items I have found that take away little stressors that add up to big relief!
This is the GREATEST DIAPER BAG FOR TRAVEL! It’s compact and comfortable but hold so much stuff without becoming a pit that you can’t find anything in. The design is so clever and all the touches show that this was made with parents in mind.

This travel size Boppy saved my arms on flights. You tie it tight around your waist and it stays nicely. It’s more compact than bringing a whole big Boppy and your arm is supported for your sleeping babe!

This is a MUST!! My daughters sleep so well in this. It’s lighter than a pack and play and so easy to set up.

This travel sound machine is great for the plane and stroller and we actually bring our big one too if there’s room to use at night!
Hatch sound machine
My absolute favorite carrier. So helpful in the airport and wherever you’re going!
Aerial Buckle Baby Carrier
I love these clips! They come in so many different patterns and the cloth fabric is much better than heavy silicone ones that I feel like pull the paci down. These are a must when traveling so packs don’t end up on the floor!

Similar to a paci clip, these toy straps keep the toys from ending up on the gross floor
