While creating this post of my top items I would recommend to any expecting mother, I had many memories of creating a registry for my first baby, Adelyn. I spent months (no joke) researching the best products and trying to find out what I needed to have on hand for a new baby. At the time, many of my friends were not mothers yet, so I used Amazon reviews, listened to many of my co-workers advice, and honestly just winged my registry list. Now, after having two babies, I feel like I am a little more informed on what is truly necessary, and if I had to create a registry again, it would probably be half of what I registered for orginally.
Four years after creating my registry, I am excited about all the amazing new resources for moms-to-be. One of these resources that every new mama or really any mama should know about is, The Baby Cubby–an online store that contains a curated collection of everything you need for baby.This website is full of all of my favorite brands which makes shopping for a new baby, or buying a gift for someone expecting so easy and enjoyable. Remember when I mentioned that I spent hours searching for the best baby items when I was registering? Oh how I just wish something like The Baby Cubby was around then to save me time and hours of frustration/confusion. The Baby Cubby’s team is made up of actual parents who have spent hours researching the best and safest baby gear.
Not only does this website save you time, it saves you money. The Baby Cubby price matches any price–even Amazon, so you know that you are getting the absolute best price. AND free shipping is offered on any order over $49. As an expecting mother, you have the ability to create a registry on their website adding all of the absolute best products, eliminating the need to have to create multiple registries at different stores just to get the items you need–I can guarantee, everything you need as a new mama is in this shop.
If I could recommend a few of my favorite baby items from The Baby Cubby, these would be at the top of my list! I hope these can help you in purchasing for an upcoming arrival, creating a baby registry, or needing an idea for a baby shower gift!
1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9
1. We tried 3 other strollers since we have become parents, but our favorite so far has been the UPPAbaby double stroller/single with piggy back attachment. You can read my full review of the UPPAbaby CRUZ here.
2. I found Little Unicorn after having Emery and instantly fell in love with their beautiful printed swaddles and quilts. Most are created with bamboo which makes them incredibly soft and contain the ability to become softer with each wash. The buffalo print pictured above has to be my absolute favorite.
3. The Dockatot has been such a lifesaver in so many ways. I swear that it instantly puts Emery to sleep for every nap and was so nice to have a place to lay her around the house in different places–it was like a mobile crib.
4. I recently found this diaper bag and have loved having the option to carry it as a backpack. I can guarantee that the bag you will use the most as a mother, will be a backpack. Especially if you are a mother to more than one. I also love the simplicity of this bag and the perfect gray color that goes with anything you wear, regardless of the season. It also contains an amazing on-the-go changing station and many pockets that are intentionally placed for the convenience of any mama.
5. I use, and have used since Emery was born, Tubby Todd bath products on the girls. I love the natural ingredient list and the smell–oh the heavenly lavender smell of these products makes me absolutely obsessed.
6. The Owlet Baby Vitals Monitor is an item that I did not know about until Emery was almost one, but if we were to have another baby, I would definitely invest in one of these. You can read all about the neat things this monitor does here.
7. The Euro baby carrier is a great option as it can hold babies from newborn to toddler. The weight limit is 45 pounds and is designed to keep all of the weight off of the shoulders.
8. The MamaRoo mimics the movement of the mother with a sway or gentle rock. It would instantly put Emery to sleep and was so easy to move to different areas of the house.
9. Both of my girls loved these wooden toys and worked great as a teether too!
I hope you will remember The Baby Cubby for your next baby shopping experience.
