21 Must-Have Parenting Products Worth Every Penny
A Maxi Cosi Kiskadee high chair so freaking fancy, all your friends will be like, "Woah, where'd you get such a pretty high chair?" It has a 360-degree rotation, so you can swivel your little bundle of joy in any direction needed.
A playpen, you will be thanking your lucky stars you had the foresight to buy when your little one starts rolling. And this way, you won't have to live in fear about baby-proofing literally every corner of your home when your baby starts crawling — you can just plop them down here! And while you're at it, scoop up a mat so your baby can be as comfy as possible.
And a travel crib and play yard so your baby can relax, no matter where you visit. Don't spend the entire time at your friend's home watching your crawling/rolling baby in fear of them going somewhere they're not supposed to, touching things they shouldn't, or putting something in their mouth. This playpen is easy to fold, easy to carry, and easy to pop open.
A Woddle smart changing pad because anything that helps make those middle-of-the-night changes easier is a blessing straight from a wishing star. This baby does it all: tracks their weight (!!!), has a night-light with customizable colors, a warmer to keep them toasty, a noise machine to lull them to sleep, it records their diapers and feedings, AND has an app that can control it all! Woah, it's almost too useful.
A Baby Breeza all-in-one food maker and steamer to save you literally hours of your time and hundreds of dollars over the course of your baby's feeding journey. Just chop up some fruits or veggies, toss 'em in here, and with the click of ONE button, this machine will steam, blend, and puree your little one's food to the proper consistency. It even comes with a recipe book that'll let you know which veggies you should prepare at each month's milestone.
A Baby Brezza Formula Pro Advanced that automatically mixes, heats up, and dispenses baby formula so you're not stumbling through the kitchen in the middle of the night trying to remember if it was 2 or 3 ounces of water per scoop of formula.
A Munchkin bottle warmer so you don't have to play the guessing game of trying to figure out, "How hot is too hot?" It is compatible with most bottle brands, so this will not only get their milk/formula to the ideal temperature but is also perfect for warming up some baby food once your little one starts eating solids.
A Baby Buddha sterilizer to stop you from having to juggle a tea kettle full of boiling water. This will save PLENTY of time as it sterilizes AND dries your bottles or breast pump parts — meaning you no longer have to wait for the water to boil, sit around at least 10 minutes, and then take them out to air dry (which takes foreverrr). In just 30 minutes, you can have perfectly clean pump parts and bottles all ready for your little one's next feeding.
A folding indoor playset with a slide (that you can convert into a climber), and a baby swing (you can convert into an infant one)! This playset is so much fun, and will have your kids running around and burning all that energy without having to actually trek outside to a playground. Plus, when the guests are due to arrive, you can simply fold this up and put it away.
And a Little Big Playroom ball pit because your kiddo deserves to feel like they basically live at Chuck E. Cheese every day of their life. This comes with 200 colorful, uncrushable balls and a soft-sided "pool." It's super lightweight, which makes it easy to move around, but it is sturdy, so you don't have to worry about any of your bigger kids crushing it as they happily thrash around in it. AND it's lowkey aesthetic?? L.O.V.E.
An Ingenuity swing that is sure to be your saving grace, as it gives some semblance of peace to all you tired parents who desperately want some time to themselves. It has five speeds, two reclining positions, and soothing melodies with a light show!
A Fisher-Price kick-and-play piano to entertain your baby for months and make tummy time a lot more bearable. They'll love all the bright colors as they have fun kicking the little piano and playing with all the dangling toys — giving you plenty of time to finish up that meal you've been cooking without worrying about your baby needing your immediate attention.
A baby monitor and camera so you can keep an eye on your little one snoozing away while you and your partner enjoy date night (until their cries ultimately interrupt a few hours in). With night vision, two-way talk, and 355-degree camera movement, this is the perfect camera to be able to monitor everything that goes on in your nursery.
Or an Owlet Dream Sock Duo because you deserve to have peace of mind while you fall asleep — without waking up every other hour to check and make sure your baby is still safe and breathing. This comes with four socks you can charge and use throughout the night to track and monitor your baby's sleep patterns, oxygen levels, and heartbeat through the Owlet app. It also comes with a camera so you can monitor your baby soundly asleep in their crib.
The all-too-famous Diaper Genie to protect your nostrils from the whiff of your kiddo's diaper during changing time. Just toss the dirty diaper into the pail, and you'll be amazed at how quickly the odor gets under control, so your whole house doesn't smell like the product of your little one's blowout.

Or a tote diaper bag, basically no one will think is secretly stuffed with diapers, burp clothes, onesies, and bottles.

Plus, it has two insulated pockets for bottles, a detachable pacifier holder, a cushioned changing pad, *and* a padded shoulder strap.
A Momcozy wearable breast pump to free up your hands while you get your kiddo's next meal ready. Now you can finally cook dinner, clean up, rock your baby to sleep, or even lounge around to watch TV without worrying about holding up a manual pump.
A famous, luxurious Cybex Priam stroller that's basically the Rolls-Royce of strollers. It's spacious, it's super comfy, it's freaking gorgeous, it fully reclines, *and* you can face it backwards or forwards. Get ready to get stopped by parents everywhere just so they can ask, "Where did you get such a pretty stroller?"
And a Cybex Coya travel stroller so your stroller doesn't get damaged or — heavens forbid — lost when tossed around in your airport's baggage claim. This is the perfect travel stroller to have once your little one is able to hold themselves up since it can easily be compacted, has a built-in carrying handle, can fit in a plane's overhead compartment, AND is customizable. Luxury meets convenience.
A Nex Playground — you don't have to actually exit the home to make sure your kids are burning all the energy they need to.
