Our top picks for items we're loving in March of 2021:
Play Mat by Gus & Beau
Ever felt frustrated about the bright, bold colors used on children's toys and equipment, and how they don't really match the design aesthetic in your home? I mean it's a first world problem, but it would be nice to have softer, muted tones for baby's play-mat, wouldn't it? That is exactly what mama of 3, Liz, thought and after not being able to find what she wanted she decided to create her own. And so we introduce you to the wonder that is Gus & Beau. A collection of premium baby playmats that are easy to clean and non-toxic. Fun yet functional and extra-thick for comfort, they offer a seamless finish when connected so you can design the size you like. We love the Triangle Play-mat in Grey and the Stay Play-mat in White.
Baby Range by Sebamed
When it comes to your baby's skin, you want to know that the products you're using have been formulated with your little one's needs in mind. That's why we're recommending the award-winning baby range by Sebamed. Each carefully created product has a pH value of 5.5 in order to support the build-up of your baby's vital skin defenses, right from the very start. The range includes everything new parents need to start a skincare regime for their little ones. For inexpensive products that do what they say they do, this is a great brand to try.
While we're on the topic of Sebamed, they also have an Anti-Stretch Mark Cream that is ideal for preventing and reducing stretch marks during and after pregnancy.
SnoozeCloud Baby Sleep Aid by Snüz
Sleep… that elusive thing that we all want more of, right? Well when we heard about the award winning sleep aid from Snüz, we knew we had to share it with you. The SnüzCloud is a stylish and portable baby sleep aid made from super soft, plush fabric. It has 4 soothing sounds built-in, including pink noise (the new deeper sounding alternative to white noise), and heartbeat (to mimic that of pregnant mama's womb). There are two light options to help comfort and settle your baby as well. The lightweight, cozy design and velcro strap make it easy to attach to the side of the cot, pram or in the car and your baby will be soothed by the familiar feel and sounds. If the reviews are anything to go by then this is a must-have baby product. We don't know about you but we were sold at 'more sleep'.
Organic Baby Wrap by Kura
It is not hard to fall in love with a brand that delivers stylish, organic solutions that help everyday parenting in a beautiful and uncomplicated way. And that is exactly what Kura does with its unique Baby Wrap. Made from 100% certified organic cotton, this design is ideal for wrapping your baby safely in a carseat or push chair. The wrap has holes for the car seat straps to come through which means you can tighten the straps to baby's body rather than placing the blankets or clothing over the top, which is key in terms of safety for your child; and it keeps them toasty warm. Available in a range of colors, we love Clay from the Earth Collection, and for products made in an environmentally-conscious way, we highly recommend Kura and its Baby Wraps.
Red Milk Maternity & Nursing Bra by Lily and Ribbon
Did you double-take when looking at the photo of this maternity and nursing bra by Lily and Ribbon? I know we did. Maternity and nursing bras are usually quite frumpy, and this is anything but that. Created by Tanya Patel, mama of two, the Milk Bra is just one piece of a wide range of pregnancy and postpartum clothing that is as fashionable as it is functional. Offering style and comfort and made from ultrasoft Oeko-Tex certified materials, such as bamboo viscose, this maternity and nursing seamless bra features traditional nursing clips and elastic lace for easy access when feeding. It includes a 3 position adjuster to accompany you throughout your pregnancy, has matching briefs, and is also available in teal.
