Feeding
The only 360 cup I’ll deal with. I’ve tried so many others that leak, crack, or don’t wash easily. This one stay strong!
Miracle® 360° Spoutless Sippy & Trainer Cups
These are great for little hands to grip! Bonus: they hold up well in the dishwasher even after several years.
Raise™ Toddler Fork & Spoon Set
My fave bottle brush. The bristles stay strong and really clean out the grooves. I tried several with the sponge top and just found that they didn’t clean as well. I like the stiff bristles for cleaning out the fat deposits from milk.
Munchkin® Bristle™ Bottle Brush, Grey
Great for little hands that like to munch and want to be on the go. Just fill it up with puffs, Cheerios, or whatever other snack and they can easily feed themselves without a huge mess.
Munchkin Snack Catcher | Toddler Snack Container
The only drying rack worth having. Add accessories for more space.
Boon Grass Countertop Drying Rack, Green
This is a lifesaver! Catch the extra milk from letdown while baby is feeding. I know there are cheaper versions on the market, but I found this one to stay suctioned on the best. I tried a generic with my second kiddo and after several washes and s...
haakaa Manual Breastfeeding Pump Food Grade
So soft on baby’s face. I liked this set because it was gender neutral, soft, and affordable.

Muslin Burp Cloths 100% Cotton 12 Pack
I love this set because it’s so hard to know which bottle baby will take. We used Avent first and then Dr. Brown’s. Our second kiddo liked Tommee Tippee.
Babylist Bottle Box (5 Bottles) | Babylist Shop
We’ve literally had these bowls 6 years and they’ve been through the dishwasher countless times and they’re still in great shape Highly recommend.
Munchkin® Splash™ Toddler Bowls, Blue/Green, 2 Pack
Seriously love Munchkin products. These hold up so good!
Toddler Utensils | Spoons & Forks for Toddlers
Silicone bibs 100% of the time. They can be tossed in the sink, the dishwasher, the washing machine. They don’t stain. Plus, they catch food.
PandaEar 3 Silicone Baby Bibs Waterproof
I just love this whole set. We’ve had pieces of this set that have been through 6 years and the dishwasher lol
Color Me Hungry Splash™ Dining Set with Personalized Polish™ Utensil Set
Bathing
My babies loved this. I secured to the side of the changing table and it kept them occupied during diaper changes. Then, I easily untied it and used it during tummy time

URMYWO Black & White Baby Tummy Time Toy
The softest wash clothes and they hold up so well being used and washed repeatedly.
Natural Cotton Baby Wipes - Soft Newborn Towel
I love how absorbent these are while also being soft and cozy for baby. I found many hooded towels we tried to be rather scratchy after a couple of washes, but these stayed nice and soft.

Spotted Play 2 Pack Hooded Baby Towels 32x32
You truly can’t have enough soft wash cloths for baby.

Spotted Play 12 Pack Baby Washcloths Pink
This was so helpful through all kids. The sling is great for the newborn stage, the seat great for the baby stage, and the tub great for the toddler stage. We used this forever with both kids.
Fisher-Price Baby to Toddler 4-In-1 Bath Tub
Gear+
Hatch DUPE. We have had ours for 3 years now and we’ve had a certain name brand one for the same amount of time and literally would buy this one again and again.
Momcozy Baby Sound Machine: App Remote Control & Night Light
Super handy. We bought one with kiddo #2 and I WISH I’d had one all along. It’s small enough to keep in my trunk and just have readily available any time we were at a get-together, outside, or visiting relatives who maybe didn’t have high chair. I f...
Pop N Sit Portable Booster Seat
As someone plus sized, I found a lot of baby carriers difficult to wear. This one took a couple tries following a YouTube video and after that it was super easy and very comfy to wear!
Newborn Boba Baby Wrap Carriers
We got every penny of our money’s worth out of this seat. Both kiddos loved it. It’s perfect for that age when they’re not quite big enough to sit on their own. I like that it didn’t put them in an awkward position.
Fisher-Price Sit-Me-Up Floor Seat
I love this one for taller kiddos! I have a 99th percentile kiddo and this allows longer rear-facing and longer time in a 5pt harness.
Extend2Fit® Convertible Car Seat
Sleep
The best and easiest to use!
Baby Sleepsack Swaddles | HALO
We used sleep sacks religiously with both bits and Halo always came out on top for comfort, quality, and sizing.
Sleepsack® Wearable Blankets - Halo Sleep
Health and Safety
I always throw a pack (or 3) of boogie wipes in every baby shower gift I give. They work like magic in getting crusty boogers off without torturing baby. The natural saline helps break them down and loosen them. They’re great for toddlers and up as...
Boogie Wipes
It sounds so gross, but these work so much better and faster than the suction bulbs and this one is less expensive than certain other brands. Well worth it. #comissionlink
Nosies New Born Baby Nasal Aspirator 0-6M
Books
I dare you to read the whole book without crying. A classic.

Pacifiers and teethers
I love this for the same reason I love the bottle box- it’s so hard to know ahead of time which pacifier baby will take… and it’s expensive to stock up on one type only to find they don’t like it.
Babylist Pacifier Box | Babylist Shop
The BEST teethers. Honestly, the only one I found worth having. We wasted so much one h on various teethers with our firstborn and stuck solely with these for kiddo #2. They’re easy for little hands to hold and babies love to gnaw away. They’re no...
Teething Tubes
We tried so many pacifiers with both kids and Tommee Tippee are the only ones that they would take.
Baby Pacifiers | Tommee Tippee US
Diapering
I found these super handy to throw in the bottom of the trash can and just generally anywhere we might be changing diapers. It definitely helped keep the smell down and they last a long time without adding an extra scent or having to be refreshed.
