This bassinest rotates a full 360 degrees and with an adjustable base will allow your baby to sleep in safety at eye level with mama while you both get some much needed rest.

Tommee Tippee Essentials Bib, 2 pk $8 – “With so much time on my hands, I just love having to clean and wipe my floors after every feeding”…said No Parent Ever. What puts these bibs over the top of other less expensive cloth options is the clever design called the Crumb Catcher. As the name implies, it keeps your little one’s food off the ground and reduces the dreaded “spill-zone”. This bib is made from soft, dishwasher safe plastic and is suitable for babies over 6 months old. And if you just need a quick wipe down mid-meal, it cleans off easily under the tap and with a wipe, it is ready to go back in action.

Ergobaby Original Ergonomic Multi-Position Baby Carrier $119 – Sometimes you just want to ditch the stroller, or you’re walking/hiking over terrain that’s just too uneven for even the best four wheeler. This version by Ergobaby makes the popular list because of its double adjuster lumbar support waistbelt plus cushy straps for long-wearing comfort.

Hatch Baby Rest Smart Night Light, Sound Machine and Time-to-Rise $60 – Babies get used to a lot of sound when they were in the womb. So sometimes that too quiet nursery makes it hard for them to fall asleep and stay asleep. Enter the Hatch Smart Night Light, Sound Machine and Time-to-Rise Baby Rest. You can set controls via your smartphone (Android and iOS compatible) to multiple settings and times. Controls include different brightness levels, such as soft for night feedings and diaper changes. Many studies now are also recommending keeping white noise decible levels below 50 when possible, and the Hatch gives you full control there. And when baby gets older, parents will fully appreciate the ok-to-wake alerts letting toddlers know when it’s okay to get up. If that wasn’t enough, they offer a whole collection of cute coverlets to coordinate with the child’s nursery.

It’s 100% BPA free, the one-piece design is super easy to clean and its soft rounded nipple shape prevents nipple confusion (common in breastfeeding babies under 6 months).

Woolino 4 Season Baby Sleep Bag, Merino Wool $70 – Baby blankets are cute, but anyone with a restless little one will tell you exactly how many times a night they got through the unhappy routine of their sweet one kicking off their blanket and then crying to tell you about it. Enter the baby sleep sack (also called sleep bag). It keeps your baby cuddled throughout the night no matter how hard they kick. So what makes the Woolino top notches on register lists? First, it’s a no-snap, 2-way zipper design that unzips from top to bottom (important because if baby can reach it, baby will play with it). Second, it’s 100% natural Merino Wool lined which allows it to be a 4 season use baby sack (other materials you’ll need one for hot nights, one for cold and more than likely a few for inbetween). Third, because the wool is so breathable it reduces the risk of overheating (a big risk factor for SIDS). And last, it’s machine washable, something all busy moms & pops can appreciate.

Britax B-Agile 3 & B-Safe 35 Travel System $289 – When it comes to Infant car safety, Britax tops just about everyone’s list. It’s SafeCell Impact Absorbing Base is made to compress (while maintaining steel strength) to greatly reduce injury potential.
