Everywhere
Things I'm not leaving my house without. Short or long trip.
If you're not breastfeeding; Nuvita wireless Portable Bottle Warmer - was our saviour on flights and long drives! It has USB-C outlet and can be charged everywhere. A bit expensive but so worth it!
Digital and ultra-fast bottle warmers - Nuvita Baby
Joolz AER Stroller, hands down the BEST stroller for traveling, so light, easily foldable, can be stored as carry-on luggage! Amazing. Also zips down so that the baby can be in a lying position (great for smaller babies/newborns).
Joolz Aer2 Lightweight Travel Stroller
I saw these somewhere on instagram and searched the stores everywhere. Then I found them on Amazon. I love them for baby-led weaning! And if you're traveling, get the 3 pack, we lost/forgot one in the hotel… (happens easily)
NumNum Baby Spoons Set
We used this so much! In the car, car trunk, every airport, restaurant, you name it! Practical because you have everything on hand- wipes, diapers.
Portable Diaper Changing Pad
Never used blankets to swaddle baby, but used them for everything else! Cover, as a mat, as a towel, etc. I would have everything in muslin for the baby, if I could.
Muslin Swaddle Blankets
Great for everyday use also, you can easily clip on your bag, shopping bag (whatever doesn't go below in the basket)
Stroller-Hooks
A waterproof blanket thats easily foldable is an essential, even if you're not going outside. For hotel rooms, gardens, anything really. You never know who's been walking on the floors before your baby.
ZAZE Picnic Blankets
I always calculate how much we need for the traveling time, then I add another bottle's full of milk formula just to be safe. Very practical.
Termichy Stackable Formula Dispenser
On the Plane
The essentials for their first flights! Try to feed the baby at take off and landing because of the pressure in their ears!
Baby Blanket. We have this from Little Otja and we love it. You can have any kind of blanket but you definitely need one for the plane, it can get really cold!
Little Otja® Knitted Baby Blankets
Noise-cancelling Headphones for Baby's Flights. This is a must if your baby is very young to protect the ears. I recommend trying the headphones a few times at home before flying so that the baby is used to them.
Infant Headphones For Airplanes
A good alternative to the blanket, especially on long-haul flights. Our daughter kept moving in the plane bassinet and this kept us from jumping up every time she moved. Better for babies up to 9 months.
Yoolhamy Baby Swaddle Blanket
Weekend Escape
Road trips or weekends at grandmas and grandpas.
I never wanted just a ‘baby bag’ and to be honest, they can be very expensive. But this bag is perfect for the baby and later for mama. It also has straps so you can put it through the handles of your suitcase- no carrying around!
WOOMADA Weekender Overnight Bag for Women
I love this back seat organizer for all the books and toys to help me entertain my baby while on the road. However, I don't use the tablet! No screen time for the baby!
Car Backseat Organizer
Longer Vacation
Add-ons for a longer vacation.
Nosiboo go Nasal Aspirator. This is a life saviour at home for any kind of congestion. I wouldn't dare go anywhere without this! It can save your baby from getting a cold, especially from Fall to early Spring!
Nosiboo Go Electric Nasal Aspirator for Babies
Okay… we used this when we were on a longer vacation and dinner was so late, our baby went to sleep already. Our cabin was actually really close to the dining room and we used this to watch our baby throughout dinner. As soon as we saw her waking up,...
eufy Security Baby Monitor
A very stylish stroller (or anything you can mount it on) fan. Mostly for Summer or traveling in the tropics!
Baby Stroller Fan
On the Beach
My go-to list when hitting the beach! Don't forget lots of water for you and the baby :)
Essential for everyday! Your baby's skin is so gentle, take care of it. No skin cancer when they are old, please.
La Roche-Posay Anthelios Kids SPF 50
I actually don't like most baby hats, but this one is adorable! *for baby girls
Baby Girl UPF 50+ Adjustable Sun Hat
We were so happy to have this for for daughter as she could enjoy the ocean with us at 6 months! And the design! And the fact that it's reversible…. we are repurchasing in bigger size.
Aquajoy Warmsy - Premium Reversible Baby Wetsuit
If it's warm enough, still keep your baby protected in a long sleeve swimming suit.
Swimbubs Baby UV Swimsuit
A small tent you can easily fold and pack in your suitcase. Just check the instructions for folding at home :D
Babymoov Baby Anti UV Tent
Best Swim Trainer float. For babies from 0-1 year. Can't wait to use it again next month.
