This is what should be on your baby registry.
My sister has worked as a full-time nanny for over 10 years. She’s tried every stroller on the market, every diaper pail, every bottle brand. As someone who’s worked for both Hollywood actors and young freelancers, she’s sampled the high-end and low-end of every baby product on the market. Below, she shares her favorites for new and expecting parents.
Babybjörn Baby Carrier Mini
“I thought this would be totally unnecessary and a waste of money, but it’s amazing! No more scooping and spilling powered formula all over the counter.”
SHOP
Wide-Mouthed Bottles
“With the fewest parts possible, please. Unless your baby needs specific bottles because of gas issues, chose wide-mouthed bottles. They're so much easier to fill."
SHOP
Doona Car Seat & Stroller
“A carseat and stroller in one! No more carrying a carseat on your arm. The bottom of the stroller collapses to become the carseat base."
SHOP
Babybjörn Baby Carrier Mini
“I’ve tried them all, and this is the only one that’s comfortable for both me and baby, whichever way they’re facing.”
SHOP
Simply Magnetic Me Spare Magnetic Coveralls
“I now have zero tolerance for zippers or snaps. Magnetic closures are the way to go. And bonus points for offering preemie sizes!”
SHOP
Backpack Diaper bag
“Both fashionable and easy to carry. I’ll never carry a shoulder diaperbag again.”
SHOP
Owlet CamSmart HD Video Baby Monitor
“It streams directly to your phone, which means you don't have to carry around an extra devise.”
SHOP
Pampers & Huggies Diapers
“I've tried every diaper on the market, and I swear by Pampers and Huggies. They never leak, and they fit every {baby} body type.”
Babybjörn Bouncer Bliss
“Bouncers are essential if you want to get anything done… ever. There are several great brands, but this is a client favorite. And you can bounce it with your foot.”
SHOP
Minimalist Highchair
“Select one with a simple tray and easy to clean or wipe-able cushion. Otherwise, you'll spend your days vacuuming crumbs out of cracks and removing the cushion to wash it.
SHOP
Gripe Water
“Trust me, you’ll need it. And it works!”
SHOP
Baby Jogger City Mini 2 Stroller
“I’ve pushed every stroller on the market, and this continues to be my favorite because you can open it and collapse it with one hand.”
