Being a neurodivergent child can be EXTRA hard - it's so difficult to find the words to explain what's causing stress or to know what's wanted and needed. I am taking the guesswork out of it for you and suggesting items to help reduce unnecessary or unwanted mental processing and provide relief for little minds. In here you will find a range of things that are focused on creating sensory underload for neurodivergent (ADHD/autism/dyslexic/dyspraxic/dysgraphic/dyscalculic/OCD) children. I genuinely do not believe we should ever ‘grow up’, so anything you find in here is also great for anyone of any age (as well as pet-friendly). Be kind to your mind and surround yourself with wonderfully neurodivergent-friendly items to create the mental peace, cosy relaxation, comfort, and gentle fun that we all deserve 🪁🫶

Things I would have loved to receive as a baby shower gift

I have successfully nursed my first for 21 months and going on 8 months with my youngest. These items are life changing

Let's be honest: there are way too many "must have" baby items being shoved in our faces. By the time we were pregnant with our first, I was determined not to take on the unnecessary junk that would just take more precious room in our already too-small dwelling. To start, I made a strategic registry... Like there was not a single onesie to be found. Let me tell you, if there's a onesie on the registry, some Great Aunt Ruth is going to get it. Even if it isn't on the registry, trust me, there will be at least five onesies gifted. That's why I only put the essentials. We even had cloth diapers, and someone BOUGHT THEM. Honestly that alone saved us thousands. So take a look at my list. Now as a mom of three, I stand firm in this decision. I wouldn't have changed a thing.

These tried-and-true favorites make caring for your baby and toddler a little easier, a lot cuter, and always full of joy. Whether you’re a new parent or looking for thoughtful gift ideas, these finds bring comfort, quality, and charm to every stage of childhood.

Hi, Here's some baby's vitamin reccommendation. But make sure, always follow your pediatrician’s advice before introducing any vitamin or supplement.

Like most parents, I opt for the shows I grew up watching. I’m also a big believer that the newer shows, with their neon colors and overly animated eyes lead to our children’s behavioral outbursts.
