I'd love to present my breastfeeding wisdom to you! This is from my personal insight, breastfeeding my two babies until a little over 1 year, working as a labor and delivery nurse where I help new mothers in the first few hours of life to breastfeed, and working along side lactation nurses! As always, do what is best for YOU!

After having 2 children, many trials and errors these are all of my newborn/infant/child must haves that we personally use! I have our routines down pat that focuses on nourishing the growing young body from the inside out. Tried and true staples that I use daily to ensure my growing children are as healthy as possible.

Everything I personally recommend as a stay-at-home mom to a two-year-old and a former daycare teacher who spent years working in a two-year-old classroom. These are the items I actually use in daily life with my toddler and products I’ve seen work for dozens of children during my daycare career. From toys that truly support development, to toddler essentials that make daily routines smoother, to must-haves that encourage independence, emotional regulation, and safe exploration; this list is built from real experience, not trends! As a former daycare teacher, I’m picky about what I recommend: it needs to be practical, durable, age-appropriate, and genuinely beneficial for toddlers. As a SAHM, it also has to make my life easier and hold my child’s attention at home! If you’re parenting a two-year-old and want tried-and-true recommendations backed by both professional childcare experience and real-life motherhood, this list is for you!🫶
