What’s In for Baby’s Day Out?

Baby K'tan

Getting baby out of the house for some fresh air, a quick run to the store, or just to visit some friends is necessary for both parent and child. But as new parents are quick to realize, babies need more gear to visit grandma than Sir Edmund Hillary needed to climb Everest. Besides the must-haves, like bottles and diapers, parents also need to schlep along bags of playwear, pjs, teething rings, baby wipes, jarred squashed veggies, and mini-coolers.

Smart companies have latched onto the idea that stepping out shouldn’t include getting stressed out. Attractive products that are easy to use and make life easier will always be in demand. Innovative brands such as Baby K’tan, Ju-Ju-Be, Innobaby, and Lifefactory are ready and able to make baby’s day out a stress-free affair.

Simplify and Snuggle with Baby K’tan

Baby K'tan
Some babywearing products are wonders of clips, snaps, and twists.
A carrier that is safe, easy and comfortable is the way to go. Baby K’tan was created by two couples disappointed with the lack of versatility found in other baby and toddler slings and wraps. The Chesals and Wernicks pooled their creativity and developed the Baby K’tan Baby Carrier. It is constructed from cuddly, stretchy cotton. Two simple loops are attached to a soft, adjustable back support, allowing baby’s weight to be distributed across the strong muscles of the entire back.

The ergonomic design allows for multiple positions that permit children up to 42 pounds to be carried easily and effectively. The generous swath of fabric also enables mom to discretely nurse with babe in arms. The Baby K’tan carrier is available in natural or organic cotton, in contemporary tones, including basic black, warm cocoa, and sage green. Retailers that partner with Baby K’tan also help hundreds of others less fortunate, since the company donates a portion of all sales to the American Heart Association.

Pack it All Up with Ju-Ju-Be

Ju-Ju-Be
No parent of an infant or toddler leaves the house without schlepping along a diaper bag jammed with babycare essentials. But at least they can look good carrying one! At Ju-Ju-Be, functional fashion takes the lead for the diaper-changing crowd. Parents can sport haute items like the hands-free convertible backpack PackaBe, available in fourteen variations. The lighter inner lining of each bag makes sorting a cinch.

The BFF lives up to its name by being extra user-friendly: quick-access outer pockets make organizing keys, phones, and bottles a breeze, while the handy detachable messenger strap allows for hands-free holds. Don’t forget to stock up on gear, too. Every diaper bag needs the Mess Shuttle, the perfect pouch for protecting sensitive noses. Measuring a generous 9.5” x 6”, the Mess Shuttle is just the right size for holding unmentionables and then can be tossed into the washing machine for easy clean up.

Nothing sticks to Teflon, so customers who get the Be Quick pouch can be assured that messy stains are a thing of the past. This mini diaper bag is just the right size for essentials and can be clipped to a stroller.

Smart Packin’ and Stackin’ at Innobaby

Innobaby
The family-friendly folks at Innobaby have been making life easier for busy parents since 2006, and boast trophies from Creative Child, iParenting, and The National Parenting Center to prove it. With products that cover every aspect of life, there’s a life-simplifying solution for everyone.

Families can get snacking by stacking the Packin’ Smart tiered storage containers, available in three and five leveled stacks. Each container individually locks and stacks securely, but can be easily opened by depressing the ovals on the side of each clear container. BPA-free, the Packin’ Smart containers are the perfect way to organize baby formula, diaper pins, or little snacks in one easily accessible grab.

Concerned caregivers clamor for the Nursin’ Smart Grow-with-Me Silicone Nursing System. Constructed from medical grade silicone, the Beginner’s Kit comes complete with a 5-ounce silicone bottle, a Type A Spoon, and a Stage 1 Natural Nipple.

Babies typically have delicate skin, so the Sittin’ Smart Natural Seat Topper is constructed from all-natural ramie. Ramie is the perfect natural, breathable fiber to have against the skin, and the Seat Topper goes everywhere baby goes: it easily slips into car seats, swings, and strollers. It comes in eleven colors, ranging from Green Meadows to Rain Forest, providing a safe, stylish seat for every tiny tushy.

Get Gorgeous Gear From the Lifefactory

Lifefactory
The brains behind the multihued baby goodies at Lifefactory understand the importance of vital colors, natural products and versatility. That’s why their line of baby and toddler products is tough to beat. Studies show that people are naturally attracted to vivid hues, just like the ones found at Lifefactory. Pam Marcus, a pediatric physical therapist and feeding specialist with a sharp eye and years of experience partnered with the award-winning integrative designer Daren Joy to bring vivid style to baby gear.

Baby bottles are 100% bisphenol-A (BPA), phthalate, and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) free, so parents can rest easy while feeding a hungry infant. But why stop with utility when there’s a world alive with color? 4- and 9-ounce borosilicate glass bottles are swaddled in durable, non-toxic medical-grade silicone. The textured sleeves come in nine colors, ranging from Ocean to Pink.

Growing babies suddenly become vampire-like around four to six months when those first teeth start to show. The Lifefactory silicone teethers are highly-textured treats that tots love to chew. These baby-sized bracelets are dishwasher safe and made in the U.S.A. They are available in six colors, from the popular Lilac to Spring Green. Colorful bottle caps help the bottles do double-duty as snack or juice containers for older children.
