I wish we had this when our first was born. We had two of these one for each twin and it actually saved both of our twins lives on two different occasions. Once when our daughter stopped breathing and once when our other daughter's heartrate was extr...

We had these for our twins and if you have ever carried an infant seat with any sized child in it they are heavy as heck. These Nuna Pipa Lite's were a GAME-CHANGER! They came with the attachments for the city select stroller so they worked perfect.

Live in Canada? Need a snowsuit for your little one. Ask a mom who has used Columbia for all her children's winter needs, ME. By far the best winter items for kids in the coldest temperatures. We loved the one piece snowsuit.

Need a car seat cover for winter? These are my favourite! Considering we live in Canada and have the longest, harshest and coldest winters these are great since there are so many rules around what you can & cannot use in a car seat.
