Momma's Got a Brand New Bag — Shoulder Diaper Bag by Baya

By ashley

I’ve had the pleasure of using the Chocolate Collection Shoulder Diaper Bag by Baya for a several weeks. As a busy mom to my two-year old daughter, this bag fit in perfectly with my lifestyle. Being a thrifty mom, the bag’s $98 retail price isn’t something I would typically purchase for myself. However, since it comes with so many extras, I could justify the expense. It includes coordinating changing pad, insulated bottle/baby food holder, wipe case and a wallet, which is my favorite. Keeps me looking stylish while only carrying one bag. It is nice to have the matching changing pad which rolls up and is stored loose in the bag.

This week, The Giggle Guide^® will highlight some new products and line extensions premiering at The ABC Kids Expo, Las Vegas Convention Center, Sept 13-16.

SummerMuff is a soft sac that lines infant carriers, strollers and joggers to provide baby comfort and protection from the sun’s harmful ways. It’s invented by a mom, Colleen Schropfer, who brought the product to market after looking for something to protect her own child. Dipe n’ Go is another real-life solution to a problem that inspired mom Rose Marie Iskowitz to change the way parents change diapers on-the-go.
