Here's a list of products I use almost daily and keep in my sons nursery! These are the staples I recommend every mom have, covering a variety of different topics/needs.
Diaper bags these days? Less “cute tote” and more “mobile crisis management center.” As a stay-at-home mom of two kids under five (aka professional snack dispenser and tantrum negotiator), my bag is stocked for anything short of a zombie apocalypse—and maybe that too. This list is everything I actually carry, use, and swear by—no fluff, no 17 lip balms. Just the real MVPs: diapers, snacks, wipes, a random sock, and the one toy that magically prevents a meltdown. If you're juggling multiple littles, or just want to upgrade your own bag game, these essentials are tried, tested, and survived a leaky sippy cup incident in a Chick-fil-A parking lot. 💼🍼🍌
I'm a first-time mum to a beautiful one-year-old, and over the past year I’ve learned so much about what’s truly essential (and what isn’t!) when it comes to baby gear. I’ve tried and tested countless products — some amazing, some not-so-great — and this list includes the ones that have genuinely made life easier, safer, and a little more joyful. Becoming a parent can feel overwhelming with all the advice and options out there, and the truth is, every baby (and every parent) is different. What works wonders for one family might not for another — but I hope this list helps you cut through the noise, discover some useful finds, and feel a little more supported on your journey. Whether you’re expecting, a new parent, or shopping for someone special, these are my go-to baby essentials that I truly recommend after a year of real-life experience. 💕

I spent HOURS (and hours) combing through reviews on hundreds of products when building out my registry. I wanted to make sure I only purchased things I would truly use and (hopefully) love. I'm proud to say all of that hard work paid off and that the majority of what I bought was well worth the investment! This list includes the top products from my baby registry I now recommend to all my expecting moms to be and would purchase again myself! I
