Baby Carrier: Foster attachment parenting with one of our award winning all-in-one soft ERGObaby carriers, unique double-sling Baby K’tans, or the Moby Wrap’s one size versatile and affordable wrap carrier. Here is a nice wintery scene featuring a woman happily strolling along with her baby in an Ergo in Highland Navy.

Stroller: The single or duallie BOB Revolution SE Stroller is your go-to stroller for everyday activities and not-so-everyday adventures. Here is the 2011 BOB Revolution SE Stroller in Plum.  This color is great in person!

Car Seat: The Sunshine Kids Radian XTSL car seats are convertible for rear-facing children 5 - 45 lbs and forward-facing children 20 - 80 lbs in a 5-point harness. Here it is in Bentley, likely named after the little boy on Teen Mom.  Just kidding. But isn't that a sharp looking car seat? And you don't ever have to buy a separate booster seat!

High Chair: Anka’s stylish high chair brings baby right up to the family table. Created for double duty, this sturdy high chair transforms into a booster seat to last through a child’s early years. Here it is in Espresso. So much more stylish than a giant plastic chair, right?

Nursing cover: Nurse discreetly in a fashionable ‘Mommy Must-Have’ cover by Bebe Au Lait. Here it is in Capri:

Swaddle Blankets: Aden + Anais’ 100% cotton muslin double-layer swaddling blanket has been touted as the “Best Sleep-Inducing Swaddle Blanket.” Here are the Bamboo Swaddles in Pyara- one of their most popular prints, and so incredibly soft!

Nursing Bra: Choose a Belabumbum Nursing Bra that caters to stylish women that are young at heart or the Original Nursing Bra by Bravado which is simply the most comfortable bra you’ll find. Here is the Belabumbum Lotus Seamless Nursing Bra in Pink. Who says nursing bras have to be dowdy?

Diaper Bag: Petunia Pickle Bottom was created for the sophisticate inside every woman. Silk brocades, organic cottons, hand-woven tweeds, plush chenilles, and exquisitely detailed embroidery—every one a Petunia hallmark. Here is the Boxy Backpack in Peaceful Portofino.  Love! And it's totally wipe-offable.

Breastpump: The Hygeia EnJoye Breastpump is designed for long-term & frequent pumping needs such as those of working mothers. Unlike other popular brands, Hygeia pumps are ecologically sound & designed for sharing between mothers when each has their own personal accessory set. Below is the Hygeia EnJoye LBI Rechargable Battery Breastpump with tote- our best selling pump, which is highly recommended by our lactation consultant, Shari Silady.

Crib Mattress: Naturepedic’s 2 In 1 Organic Cotton Ultra Baby Crib & Toddler Mattress will grow with your child for many years. It is waterproof on one side–perfect for infants, and quilted on the other–providing a more luxurious feel for older children.  They also offer changing pads.
