Best Baby Wipes for Your Baby’s Bum

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

When it comes to your baby, you’re always going to want the best baby wipes, as babies’ skin can be sensitive, and with many diaper changes a day, you want the best baby wipes that won’t irritate their precious little bottoms. The best baby wipes for your little one, and that will easily transition into toddlerhood, are WaterWipes. WaterWipes are a one-of-a-kind baby wipe that is not only safe for baby, but all members of the household.

WaterWipes are made of 99.9% water and a drop of fruit extract, making them the best baby wipes for babies with even the most sensitive of skin. The water is specially purified and softened, and a tiny drop of grapefruit seed extract acts as a natural skin conditioner. Because WaterWipes are hypoallergenic, they won’t irritate the skin; instead, they may actually help to avoid diaper rash and other skin conditions. WaterWipes has even been awarded the National Eczema Association Seal of Acceptance as they are the best baby wipes for babies with allergies or eczema.

As we know, many parents use baby wipes for other uses, too! And WaterWipes are the best baby wipes for multi-purpose use; whether it is giving baby a wash, cleaning your toddler’s hands, or even your own face – WaterWipes are the best baby wipes for the family, as they are fragrance- and alcohol-free, suitable from birth on and simply contain 99.9% purified water and a small drop of fruit extract. You can’t get more wholesome than that!

Check out our Gugu Concierge baby planner in chief, Julie, and her take on WaterWipes here:

Best Diaper Pail Pick: Diaper Dékor

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

One of the top recommended baby items for any baby registry is a diaper pail, and we have the best diaper pail pick for all parents, styles, home decor, and homes with the Diaper Dékor. From being one of the most cost-effective diaper pails on the market to the fact that it can be converted to a regular trash can when baby is out of diapers, there are so many reasons that the Diaper Dékor is our best diaper pail pick. Read on to see why it’s so important to have the best diaper pail pick in your baby’s nursery.

best diaper pail

Diaper Dékor is unique in that it is a totally hands free diaper pail, which easily makes it a best diaper pail pick for parents, as it makes life easy without having to shove a dirty diaper into an overstuffed pail! The Diaper Dékor is the best diaper pail for efficiency, as you simply have to step on the pail, drop the diaper in, and you’re done!

What’s even nicer is that the Diaper Dékor comes in three sizes, so it can fit any household or need. The Dékor Plus Size holds up to 60 newborn diapers and comes in white, gray, mint, blue or pink; this size is the best diaper pail pick for families of multiples or who only want one diaper pail in the house. The Dékor Classic, “regular” size can hold up to 45 newborn diapers and comes in white or gray; it is a best diaper pail pick for smaller nurseries, grandparents houses, or for having one diaper pail upstairs and one downstairs. The Dékor Mini is the compact size, only comes in white, and holds up to 25 newborn diapers; it’s the best diaper pail pick for a secondary diaper pail, grandparents house, or the bathroom.

best diaper pail

Parents also love Diaper Dékor diaper pails because Dékor refills are continuous liners. No preset length means you can throw away one diaper or a butt load (pun intended) without wasting a whole bag. When ready to empty, open door and pull out the liner. Cut liner above the dirty diapers with the Child Proof Cutter. Tie a new knot in the liner and you are done! Dékor has a Safety Lock for the trap door to keep kids out where the diapers go in. The Front Button keeps top frame closed to prevent access to the refill. The child proof cutter positioned inside the access door stops little fingers from cutting themselves. The access door automatically locks when pushed closed.

Most importantly though, Diaper Dékor keeps the smells away! Tough ABS Plastic doesn’t absorb odors, won’t scratch, dent or rust, and can be safely cleaned with household cleaners. Dual rubber seals under Odorkeeper™ Trap Door and under the lid seals in odors, keeping them out of your nursery. Plus, the Diaper Dékor is the best diaper pail for cloth diapers, too! You can use the Dékor when using cloth diapers with the Dékor Cloth Diaper Pail Liner. Special coating prevents leaking and wicking through of wet diapers, and it can be used over and over again just like your cloth diapers. Brilliant! There are so many reasons the Diaper Dékor is the best diaper pail for your family, cloth or disposable diapers, small or large dwelling, there is always a Dékor for you!

You can find Diaper Dékor on Instagram and Facebook. Looking for the best baby swaddle to add to your registry? See why Love To Dream™ is our pick.

Keeping Your Diaper Bag “Spring Clean”

by Gugu Guru 1 Comment

It’s a fact, when you’re a mom, you lug around a lot of “stuff”. And every seasoned mom knows that sometimes the “stuff” that you need to carry in your bag can be a bit unsavory (sealed ziplock bag with poopy diaper or a pair of soaking wet, dirty toddler socks, anyone?)  That is why the team at Gugu Guru loves the SmartGear Diaper Bag and the new Weekender Bag from Baby K’tan. 71xhM85VTpL._SX522_ What makes this bag so different and just so genius is that it includes a built-in wetbag with antibacterial lining and water-tight zipper as well as antibacterial pockets that kill germs and odor causing bacteria. 71KZyzexEXL._SX522_-2And – if you didn’t know already – a bevy of pockets is absolutely mandatory to keeping your life organized with a baby.  In our post 7 Tips For A Clutter-Free Life with Kids, Shira Gill suggests creating a diaper bag list “so you can make sure you are stocked up on the essentials before running out the door. Make sure to include healthy snacks, hand sanitizer, lip balm, etc. for your own self care.” The Baby K’tan has you covered here, with a total of 12 functional pockets to store all your essentials and more.

BKSG_DIAPERBAG_BLACK_PT02

But we all know that none of this really matters unless the bag is fashionable as well as functional. Baby K’tan gets a big check mark here too with the cute designs (including unisex styles for dad) with over the shoulder and stroller-bar straps included.

Also check out The Weekender Bag from Baby K’tan. It has a total of nine compartments for all your essentials, including a built-in antibacterial wet bag, an extra large insulated pocket to keep food cold and a padded laptop pocket for devices up to 14″. For baby it is outfitted with a matching changing pad with antibacterial lining, a wipes case for easy access wipes pocket and an antimicrobial pacifier pouch.

Made in America Gift Guide

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

With July being the time to celebrate America, we wanted to celebrate American made baby gifts; we rounded up some of our favorite baby gifts made right here in USA. Don’t forget, you can also add these to your favorites, too!

Carousel Designs: When it comes to picking crib bedding, it’s so much fun to match the bedding with the design of the nursery and really personalize the whole room. We’re huge fans of customization, which is why we love Carousel Designs bedding. Not only do they offer a gorgeous assortment of designs in a huge variety of nursery themes, but you can also design your own bedding set! With the nursery designer program on their website, you can drag and drop styles and designs to create your own custom bedding set – yes, it really is that cool! Carousel Designs was founded over 30 years ago and has worked to personalize the nursery design experience by offering our customers unmatched service and the ability to custom design their baby’s bedding, all right here in the USA.  In August of 2017, Carousel Designs was acquired by Crown Crafts, Inc., one of America’s largest producers of infant, toddler and juvenile consumer products. Now a member of the Crown Crafts family of businesses, Carousel Designs continues to operate out of Douglasville, Georgia and proudly manufacture products in the USA, while offering an even wider range of design possibilities and nursery products for customers. These make a perfect baby shower gift!

Bets & Emy Wipes: As any new parent knows, when it comes to wipes for baby, you want to make sure that they are soft, gentle, and safe for baby’s skin, which can be very sensitive at times. When we came across the Bets & Emy Wipes, we were thrilled about all components of them – especially the fact that they are made in America! Bets & Emy was founded in April of 2016 by Emily Frazer, CPSM. Emily began work developing Bets & Emy wipes in 2013 after the birth of her son, Archie. When Emily realized how many chemicals were in her baby wipes—even the “natural, fragrance free” baby wipes she was using—she believed the baby wipes were part of the problem, and began her search for something better. In August of 2016, after many months of sampling and testing, Emily’s first sample run of 1,000 packs was a success. She is proud and excited to bring you this alternative to conventional baby wipes. Bets & Emy Wipes are 99.9% water and 0.1% Citrus Extract, they are soft and strong with no fragrances or oils – super safe for babies and kids. You won’t want to be without your Bets & Emy Wipes, once you open a pack, you won’t ever go back! These are a great gift for a new mom who may not know how sensitive babies’ skin can be; set her up with these made in America wipes with no chemicals or preservatives.

Covered Goods, Original Multi-purpose Nursing Cover: When it comes to creating registries for moms who plan to breastfeed, we always add Covered Goods Multi-Purpose Cover to the list. These covers, which comes in a huge variety of colors and styles are also Made in America! Did you know that Covered Goods is the original multi-use nursing cover, too? Founder Jamie Yetter, herself a mother of four, faced a common fear that many women have while nursing in public; the fear of being exposed! She set out to create a way mothers could safely and comfortably breastfeed in public, all while still staying stylish. Plus, we’re huge fans of multi-purpose baby items, and these covers can be used as a carseat cover, grocery cart cover, or a scarf for mama when she’s not breastfeeding. The high quality covers are made from an ultra-comfy breathable lightweight and stretchy fabric.  There are no straps, rings, or cords to mess with.  The covers take seconds to put on and take off, and alleviate any worry that baby will kick or pull mom’s cover off.  The flexible neck is also designed to be able to be worn down under one arm to give mom even more freedom when nursing.  An added benefit of the flexible neck allows mom to peek in on baby or to make sure her little one has latched properly.  Covered Goods nursing covers can be folded compactly for storage and they are ideal for traveling with baby.

Check out some of our other favorite Made in America Gift ideas:

  • Tiny Tags Necklaces
  • Colgate Crib Mattresses
  • Kizingo Utensils for Kids

DIY Chambray Maternity Refashion

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

See Kate Sew is back again today with another maternity refashion! 

I’m over at Gugu Guru again to day with a 3rd installment in a little maternity refashion series! I’ve had a lot of fun with this series so I hope you have too! All three of these posts have taken an oversized men’s shirt or sweatshirt turned it into a maternity top with a few quick cuts and stitches.

We partnered with Ryla Pack for this post! The Ryla pack diaper bag is a new backpack style diaper bag with all the right pockets! I love this bag and super love the bag’s attention to detail. There is a purpose for every single pocket! A pocket for bottles, diapers, wipes, a cellphone and more. It’s a nice and sleek bag that fits all! You can use my code SEEKATESEW to save 20% on your own Ryla Pack! Hop over to See Kate Sew to read my review of the pack!

This refashion is very simple! I purchased an oversized short-sleeve men’s top and just took in the side seam from the sleeve down to the hem in one fell swoop! It has a swingy shape to it which is flattering and easy to wear, especially over maternity leggings or even jeans. An extra feature of this refashion is the addition of a necktie. I used a black and gold polka dot for the tie, which just adds a little class and a little color to the outfit. You can even make a few ties and switch them out to change up the look of the same top!

Materials:

-oversided chambray SHORT sleeve men’s shirt

-1/4 yard quilting cotton for tie

Instructions:

Try the shirt on, pinch under the armpit where you want to bring the shirt in and mark it with a pin or disappearing ink pen. Do the same on the sleeve and note how many inches from the side seam you have pinched.

Take it off and turn inside out. Sew from the sleeve to the hem, following your marks.

It’s really that easy!

To make the tie, cut 2 strips of fabric 44″ by 4″. 44″ is the width of a standard bolt of quilting cotton, so you can just cut it right from the edge of your length of fabric without measuring.

Fold strip in half with wrong sides together and press. Sew the long edge.

Turn the tube right side out and press. Turn the short edges under and topstitch.

Find the middle of the tie and fold it over. Stitch about 10″ (5″ on either side of middle point). This will help the tie fit around the collar and stay flat.

Tie it up and you’re done!

This is also really cute without a belly! And since it’s button-up, it’s great for nursing!

Real Mom Review SnoofyBee

by Gugu Guru 1 Comment

We had to review SnoofyBee! We first saw this awesome diapering invention popping up in our Facebook newsfeeds and then this past November, we saw the founders on Shark Tank and we just had to get our hands on one to try. Why was our interest piqued?  Ever try to change a wiggly baby? It’s no fun. Add a wiggly baby who likes to explore the nether regions during diapering and it can be a really crappy experience for a parent (yep, pun 100% intended.) That’s why we were so excited to try out the Clean Hands Changing Pad from SnoofyBee.

First off, let’s talk about what this product is. As the site explains, the SnoofyBee Clean Hands Changing Pad provides all the benefits of a standard portable changing station and diaper clutch. Aside from the 3-in-1 multi-purpose design, what is so genius about this product is its patent pending barrier to hang toys from and gently redirect your child’s curiosity away from the mess.  Review SnoofyBee
Here’s what Gugu Guru registrant and new mama, Sonny, says about her awesome experience with the SnoofyBee:

Review SnoofyBee

Pros

  • It does exactly what it’s supposed to; I could easily change her diaper without her little hands flailing in the way.
  • It’s extremely easy to get on, and she really can’t even interfere with the barrier going up. It just folds up and velcros. It also comes off easily. Once you unvelcro it it falls down flat – doesn’t curl over her.
  • I love the color/pattern.
  • It has 2 little rings to attach her own toys to for further distraction.
  • I could see this being very useful for travel as it would even contain a baby’s arms when you’re using a KoalaCare changing station, so he or she wouldn’t be rolling over rubbing little hands all over it!
  • It’s very easy to clean; all the sides are just a little stiff making it super easy to wipe them down.

Con

  • It’s still a little bulky once folded up for me to want to carry around in a diaper bag for daily use.

The Village Reviews: bloom BABY All Natural Wipes

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

Have you heard? There’s a new wipe in town and, according to our Village,  there’s a lot to like about bloom BABY all natural wipes.  Check out the pros and cons of bloom BABY all natural wipes as described by the Gugu Village below. Spoiler alert: there are not a lot of cons!

bloom BABY all natural wipes
Theresa L.

Pros:

  • Not overly wet or overly scented. Let’s face it, there are a lot of times you don’t have a washcloth handy and you wipe your babies face with a wipe. I love that if I wipe his cheeks with bloom BABY all natural wipes that the wipe isn’t overly wet or too scented.
  • Chemical Free. As a person who tries to buy organic/non gmo/natural products whenever possible I am surprised that I never even thought about the ingredients in my babies wipes! I love that this wipe has 98% natural ingredients.
  • More! I don’t know the price difference to competitors but I can tell you this pack is about 1/3 bigger than the wipes I usually use. That means I have to refill my wipe case less often and I feel like it is a better value!
  • Texture. This was originally a “con” and then it turned into a “pro”. The wipes have more texture to them than most wipes, which I didn’t really like a first because I felt like it wasn’t a smooth slide over baby. BUT I realized that the texture made messy diapers MUCH easier to clean.

bloom BABY all natural wipes

Caitlin T.

Pros:

  • The size of the box! 8 packs of 80 is my kind of math! The size of the individual wipes is great too; covers a large area.
  • Truly great for sensitive skin. My little girl has super sensitive skin and almost every type of wipe we tried would leave her irritated. Since using the bloom BABY all natural wipes she has been noticeably less red and irritated. HUGE plus.
  • Being naturally scented. I really like the natural scent.
  • The reusable pouch! Not only is is super useful for the diaper bag but it’s also super cute!

Cons:

  • They are a little on the dry side so it takes a tad more effort to get the booty clean.
  • The seal doesn’t stay sticky for long so after a little bit it’s not really resealable.

bloom BABY all natural wipes

Shan S.

Pros:

  • My whole family loves them! My infant, my toddler and even my husband.
  • And real Mom talk, the bloom BABY all natural wipes also work on doors and small household spills!
  • Great size, very soft, good moisture level (not too wet, which is really annoying in a wipe).
  • The package stays sealed nicely, and they don’t dry out in between uses.

Cons:

  • The only thing I don’t really like is the scent. However, I do like that the fragrance is all natural.

Lauren K.

Pros:

  • bloom BABY all natural wipes have a limited list of natural ingredients.
  • Larger size than traditional wipes; I find myself using about 1/3 fewer wipes.
  • The scent is light and pleasant.
  • The wipes were not irritating to my son’s sensitive skin!
  • The box is cute and provides helpful tips for first-time parents.

Cons:

  • There aren’t many! The to-go pouches that were in my box were unusable. The zippers were placed in the center of the seal, which created an open spot that did not allow the zipper to close properly. It would have left them open to air.
  • Price on Amazon seems to be significantly higher than other brands.

bloom BABY all natural wipes
Lori W.

Pros:

  • The bloom BABY all natural wipes arrived in nice packaging – colorful and bright with minimal waste.
  • THICK AND LUXURIOUS – I only had to use two (!) wipes to clean a major blowout, when it would usually take a minimum of four.
  • Nice, subtle fresh scent.
  • Textured wipe helps make cleanup more efficient and also good for cleaning little hands/in between fingers and other hard-to-get-to places.
  • Hold moisture well and don’t seem to dry out in the warmer
  • Ingredients seem mostly natural and wipes don’t leave that weird residue behind that I have noticed when using other brands
  • I am definitely switching!

Cons:

  • I wasn’t keen on the little plastic pouch they sent as a travel carrier, it seemed flimsy and I don’t think I will use it

Sunny L.

Pros:

  • I love the ingredients of these bloom BABY all natural wipes.
  • I appreciate that they truly have no smell. Ruby (age 1) has had a positive reaction to them, in that she has not reacted with itching/rash/abrasiveness during wiping.
  • I love that they’re quilted and very soft.

Cons:

  • I would like them to be just a bit thicker.
  • I had a little trouble figuring out how to get them open, and ended up tearing the flap, but that could be user error because I was in a rush.

Back to Daycare Essentials

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

-Sponsored Post-

It’s the time of year again when many little ones head to daycare, either for the first time, or seasoned little ones are heading back – what are the essential items which you need to remember for heading back to daycare? We rounded up some top daycare essentials which you don’t want to forget!

Labels: Labels are a must have essential for daycare, especially when you’re sending bottles, diapers, and baby gear. We’re big fans of Stuck on You labels for all of your little one’s stuff – everything needs to be labeled, from clothing to pacifiers, to bags, to bottles, to food items.  Stuck On You Name Labels are safe in the microwave, dishwasher and freezer, plus they come with a scratch resistant coating making them waterproof and super long lasting. These quality stick on name labels will go the distance on plastic toys for ‘show and tell’ and playtime! Multi Use Labels are ideal for using on stuffed toys as it will not only give them more personality, it will ensure that these treasured companions make it home if they are misplaced. We recommend sewing down the Multi Use Label to their stuffed toy for added security. We love how creative you can get with these labels – you can personalize them down to picking  font, which means your little one’s labels will be unique and special.

Diapers: While cloth diapering is becoming very popular for many parents, many daycares don’t allow for cloth diapers. Here’s a hint: remind them about a reduction in trash with cloth and that could make them reconsider. If you’re unable to talk the facility into cloth diapering and looking for an safe alternative to cloth diapers, we love Babyganics Diapers! Made with a new blend of plant-based materials, Babyganics diapers are intended for superior comfort and fit and enhanced absorbency. They have NO chlorine, latex, petroleum based lotions or fragrances. They are made with NeoNourish Seed Oil Blend: Babyganic’s own blend of tomato, sunflower, cranberry, black cumin and raspberry seed oils. They feature soft-stretch sides, leak control, and have a wetness indicator.

Safe Shoes: While not a concern for infants, toddlers need to have safe shoes to run around in! Many daycares ask that parents not send open-toed shoes, or sandals, as beginner walkers can have issues with them. We’re a fan of Bobux shoes, which has sturdy, safe and stylish shoes for newborns through kids. Bobux has been making incredible baby shoes since 1991, in fact Bobux invented the soft sole shoes with the ankle elastic system that makes these shoes easy to put on and they stay on! Made from 100% buttery soft leather that molds to baby’s feet. Many parents report that Bobux are the only shoes their baby will wear, because they are so soft and comfortable it’s like not wearing shoes at all.

Looking for tips for transitioning to daycare? We have some of our favorite tips from real parents in this post!

Thank you to Stuck on You for making this sponsored post possible.
