But choosing the right things for your baby is important. You want to make sure they're safe, comfortable, and most importantly, practical.
One of the best ways to figure out what works for you and your baby is to ask your fellow mamas!
Real experience, honest recommendations, and true-to-life product reviews. 😊
This week, we asked award-winning influencer and mom of two, Nikki Bonifacio, her top three mom essentials that make motherhood easier.
Here are three essentials that every mom needs recommended by Mommy Nikki:
Diaper Bag: “A good diaper bag is a must-have for any mom. You need something roomy and organized to carry all the baby necessities like diapers, wipes, bottles, extra clothes, snacks, and toys. Look for one with lots of pockets, insulated compartments for bottles, and easy-to-clean materials because spills happen.”
Baby Carrier: “A baby carrier is a lifesaver when you need your hands free but still want to keep your little one close. It makes running errands, doing chores, or even just taking a walk so much easier. There are wraps, slings, and structured carriers, so you can choose what works best for you. Just make sure it’s comfortable and provides good support for both you and the baby.”
Breast Pump: “If you’re breastfeeding, a reliable breast pump is essential. It helps you maintain your milk supply, lets you store milk for later, and gives you the flexibility to have someone else feed the baby while you get some rest or go out. Electric pumps are quick and efficient, while manual pumps are portable and quiet. Look for one with adjustable settings so you can find what’s most comfortable for you.”
We know that finding the best brands for your baby is crucial - but remember to enjoy the process of discovery and don't be too hard on yourself.
This is the best time to learn and grow with your little one.
