As an experienced infant nanny, I've used just about every baby product under the sun! Here are some of my top recommendations for babies. (Just a heads up: This list is still a work in progress. I plan to add more sections as soon as I can!)

Choosing the right bottle can feel overwhelming, so I’ve rounded up the best options for every type, from silicone to glass to stainless steel. These picks are parent-approved, loved by babies, and designed to make feeding a little easier. Each one has unique its own perks, whether it’s easy cleaning, reducing colic, or growing with your little one. No matter your baby’s preference, you’ll find a bottle here that fits your family’s needs.

Exploring the world through their senses is how babies learn best. Sensory play is all about experiences that activate your child’s senses and support their development. Through hands-on activities, little ones can explore touch, sight, sound, smell, and taste—while also building important skills like language, coordination, and balance.

As a mama, I’m always searching for well-made wooden toys that can stand the test of time. So many toys today wear out quickly, but these are sturdy, dependable, and made to bring joy through years of play. Here are a few of my favorites.
