Need a Hand? Ask the mamaRoo®4

by Mel Blume Leave a Comment

 

If you haven’t heard of the miraculous mamaRoo4, we are beyond excited to introduce you two. This cutting-edge infant seat offers five unique calming motions to create an experience that turns wahs into wins. At the touch of a button.

The ultimate baby soother comforts babe by mimicking moves that are part of their everyday. It bounces up and down and sways from side to side, just like parents and caretakers. Smiles and giggles often turn into independent playtime, and suddenly, your hands are free! And, you can do things like shower (woo-hoo!), work, cook dinner, fold laundry—the list goes on.

The innovative and thoughtful design captures the needs of parents with the comfort of little ones at its core. If babe wants to sit up and play, or relax, its easily adjustable seat makes it simple for you to match every mood. Some littles ones even enjoy sipping on bottles while admiring the interactive balls above them. Soft with adorable, eye-catching patterns, the reversible toy balls provide endless entertainment at every stage.

The mamaRoo4 features four built-in soothing sounds while also offering a plug-in for you to play songs for babe from your phone. It’s also Bluetooth enabled, so you can control the motions and sounds via the 4moms app from your smart device. Since little ones often spend a great deal of time in this epic coddling machine, the removable seat fabric is super helpful. With a quick zip, you can easily clean the machine-washable fabric.

4moms mamaroo

The mamaRoo4’s popularity spans from homes to hospitals, as its calming effects are ground-breaking. While some swings are good, the 25 different combinations of motions and speeds give parents and babes an experience unlike anything else on the market. It’s truly revolutionary and we—and many of our mamas—love this infant seat. If you’re looking for something life-changing, while keeping baby safe and happy, check this out. We’re pretty certain you and babe are going to become instant fans. Wishing you the most productive days!

Thank you to 4moms for making this sponsored post possible!

What’s New on Gugu: Chicago Baby Show Edition

by Abby Ludwig Leave a Comment

We were off to the Chicago Baby Show this week to see what’s new in the baby world! The Gugu Guru team loved learning all about the latest and greatest items for babies and toddlers. Below is our wrap up of some of our favorite new finds. Some of these are brand new to the market and some may be familiar faces. We LOVE hearing about new products, so please never hesitate to send our way!

 

For a number of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!

CoralUV

CoralUV Sanitizer and Dryer: We have been so excited about the launch of the CoralUV since we met one of the Co-founders last year at the Chicago Baby Show! You will fall in love with this machine while sanitizing and drying bottles, pacifiers, and teethers but it won’t end there! Continue to fall in love over and over again as you sanitize small toys, sippy cups, remotes, and anything else that comes in contact with your little ones. It’s also great for Mom’s makeup brushes! Now that they have formally launched, we know this will be a favorite appliance of parents for years to come!

Evenflo Pivot Xplore

Evenflo Pivot Xplore All-Terrain Stroller Wagon: We mentioned this new stroller wagon by Evenflo earlier this year when it was announced. It has now launched and is gaining fame by the minute! This is the perfect solution to older toddlers and young children who no longer want to ride in the stroller. Each seat will hold up to 55 lbs and there are both car seat adapters and toddler seats available. We also love the fact that this can have either a wagon ‘pull’ or a stroller ‘push.’

Larktale Stroller

Larktale Strollers – chit chat and coast: Launching earlier this year, Larktale brings two new strollers to the US market! The chit chat is a great lightweight option, perfect for travel or that everyday on-the-go family. The frame is also made from recyclable fiber-infused nylon, which is both eco-friendly and incredibly strong. The coast is Larktale’s all-terrain stroller, which is newborn compatible and has great all-wheel suspension. It even folds up small enough to fit in any trunk. Great compact, well made strollers!

m1 Carrier by Lascal

M1 Carrier by Lascal: A new fantastic find by one of our favorite companies, Regal Lager. The M1 Carrier is truly an adaptable carrier that has been designed with both baby and parent in mind. Made of completely breathable fabric, you will also be able to use this with one hand. No more struggling to get your little one in/out of the carrier alone! Newborn compatible (without an insert!), the seat will also change based on your little one’s needs. Plus it will provide ample lumbar support for anyone carrying baby!

Olababy

Olábaby Transitional Sippy Lid: Olábaby bottles remain some of our top recommendations, especially for parents who want eco-friendly without the weight of glass. When we stopped by their booth at the Chicago Baby Show, they had lots of fun things to show us. We were most excited about their Transitional Sippy Lid, which will attach to your current Olábaby bottles and help ease your babe’s transition. No more struggling with new spoutless cups or straw cups for months. This is a great, budget-friendly investment!

Lalo

Lalo: The brains behind both ‘The Daily’ (stroller) and ‘The Chair’ were showcasing all of their products’ features this year. We loved taking a stroll with the Daily and seeing how much we could really stuff in that large (adjustable) basket. We also were so intrigued at how easy ‘The Chair’ is to clean. Plus we love that it adjusts to a toddler size chair. We can’t wait to see what else comes out of the Lalo team this next year! Lalo has also partnered with BabyQuest to assist couples and individuals with the cost of fertility treatments. Apply for the grant by Sept 5 by clicking here.

bets & emy

bets & emy Baby Wipes: These wipes will change your baby’s life if s/he suffers from sensitive skin! Made of 99.9% water and 0.1% citrus extract, these wipes will keep your little one free of painful diaper rash. However, different than other natural wipes on the market, these are textured and large, meaning you can actually use less wipes to clean up all of lifes ‘big’ messes! They are even soft enough to use on your face AND (fun fact from the owner) they will take off makeup!

Nuna Exec

Nuna Exec: Although this seat isn’t expected to launch in October, we loved seeing it this past weekend! Exclusive to Nordstrom, this seat will truly be the only seat you’ll ever need. Starting as a rear facing infant-compatible car seat, it features a built in anti-rebound bar, infant insert, and easy to install capabilities. When you’re ready to forward face, simply turn the seat around for your little one. As your kiddo gets older, this will even turn into a seat belt booster, with easy-to-store panels for the harness.

What’s New on Gugu: August 21, 2019

by Abby Ludwig Leave a Comment

This week I have found some fun new products for both mom and baby! For mom, I am highlighting three new maternity/nursing apparel options. Two of these are great options for working moms and one is great for active families! I also have a new combination car seat (harness to booster) that will be great for school carpools! Also, an excellent set by one of our favorite eco-friendly toy companies.

 

For a number of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!

Britax Grow with You Clicktight and Grow with you Clicktight Plus: The two new Harness-2-Booster options from Britax are great for back to school and carpool! We love Britax’s Clicktight installation, which gets you a perfectly tight fit in a matter of seconds. These seats will keep your forward facing kiddo in a harness until 65 pounds, and safely in a booster up to 120 pounds. Clicktight Plus also features naturally flame-retardant fabrics that you can easily wash and dry!

The Dress by leSolstice: This pregnancy and nursing friendly dress is the new ‘must have’ in any mama’s wardrobe! The slight compression waist stays up on your growing tummy while the dual wrap top easily opens for nursing and/or pumping. Plus, the magnetic closure will keep one side closed, even if you need to open the other!

Rose and Rex Calm Mind Kit: Looking to introduce mindfulness and meditation to your little one in a developmentally appropriate way? Look no further! Created by childhood development and wellness experts, these will help you get through the dog days of summer! Each set contains three toys as well as a set of calm mind activity cards. Plus, every purchase gives back toys to children in need!

Cadenshae Activewear: A full line of maternity (and nursing-friendly) activewear for pregnancy and beyond! Created to look just like your pre-baby wardrobe, every Mom and Mom-to-be will find something high-quality and super comfortable! Once baby arrives, these items will continue to be some of your favorite go-to pieces!

J. Crew x HATCH Collection: Another fun collaboration has recently launched! J. Crew’s entrance into the maternity world is paired brilliantly with HATCH, creating many new (and adorable!) pieces for the working mom. Comfortable for the growing belly, these pieces will help you feel confident in the work place throughout all three trimesters and beyond!

This week I have found some great products for mom! Some items will help with pregnancy while others will help with the fourth trimester and beyond! We can’t take care of our babes without taking care of ourselves (easier said than done!). I also found some items for said babes – a new high chair that is taking on the style game and a great new eco-friendly toy company!

For a number of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!

Frida Mom

Frida Mom: The newest line of products from our friends at Fridababy and all for mom! These products were created to help with recovery after birth and throughout the fourth trimester. Known for their honest approach to baby products, the Frida Mom line helps immensely with one of life’s messiest times. Available for purchase as individual items or as a set!

Mouse Loves Pig

Mouse Loves Pig: Simplifying the toy game, Mouse Loves Pig has created high-quality, organic toys that kids will want to play with! These toys will easily become your child’s go-to playthings whether at home or on the go. Great for the car, plane, or while trying to pass the time!

Lalo The Chair

The Chair by Lalo: ‘The Chair’ as they call it, is lightweight, easy to clean, and beautiful! We love the high quality materials they used to create ‘The Chair,’ and that it converts to a toddler seat! Plus, this chair won’t feel like an eyesore when you leave it out in your kitchen. Lalo has also partnered with BabyQuest to assist couples and individuals with the cost of fertility treatments. Apply for the grant by Sept 5 by clicking here.

Storq New Mama Care Set

Storq New Mama Care Kit: Three all-natural products meant to help you through pregnancy, fourth trimester, and motherhood! This set helps ease the stigma associated with postnatal life (think cracked nipples and sore vaginas!). They are easy to use and feel luxurious on your new mom bod! Pair with the set by Frida Mom and you will be good to go!

Reebok Maternity

Reebok Maternity Collection: Trying to find for comfortable active wear that will fit your growing belly? Look no further! Reebok recently launched a line of maternity active wear that will be a perfect addition to your wardrobe. Great for running errands or heading to yoga, these neutral and classic pieces all come in both black and navy.

Real Mom Reviews: Kova Bouncer

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

Are you searching for a baby bouncer with a small footprint? If so, the Born Free Kova Bouncer is just what you are looking for. The Kova provides a great space for baby to lounge and play. The double-duty design allows parents to switch between the rocker and bouncer functions with ease. The Kova folds flat, uses little space, and is ideal for traveling. Our Gugu Guru Real Mom, Taylor, tested the new Kova Bouncer and provided us with her honest review.

Kova Bouncer

Pros:

  • There is no assembly required.
  • The design is compact and thin.
  • The bouncer folds and can fit anywhere.
  • The design is chic and modern.
  • Sturdy and well made
  • Plush comfortable seating for baby
  • The Kova bouncer offers two-features (bouncer and rocker). It is easy to switch back and forth between the two.

Kova Bouncer

Cons:

  • You can’t adjust the height of the seat, so baby might lie at a little flatter angle than desired.
  • The bounce is limited bounce with baby’s movements. A parent needs to sit and bounce a young baby.

Kova Bouncer

As soon as we opened the box, I was excited to try out the Kova Bouncer. A major benefit is that the bouncer comes already assembled complete with a carrying case. All you have to do is snap in the toy bar and you are ready to go! It folds to be very compact and thin, which is great for small spaces, easy storage and would be great for traveling. With all of the bulky baby gear that is on the market, it is nice to have a bouncer that can easily fit anywhere.

This bouncer has very plush and comfortable seating. So comfortable that baby fell asleep almost immediately! We love the modern and chic design and the leather accent it features. A major benefit is that this product is both a rocker and bouncer. You can quickly switch between the two by popping out the legs and it is very smooth when in use. It does not have any music or vibrations like some of the other bouncers on the market, however, the toys are a nice black and white so our little one is easily stimulated, and entertained. Overall, I would highly recommend the Kova Bouncer. The stylish design, comfortability, and ease of assembly and storage make calming baby a breeze.

Kova Bouncer

If you are interested in purchasing the Kova Bouncer for yourself or reading the reviews from Amazon customers, click here. A special thank you to Taylor for reviewing the Kova bouncer for Gugu Guru. While she received the Kova Bouncer, her thoughts and opinions are her 100% own.

Evenflo Gold Line: Total Treasures

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

As you all know, finding the right car seat and stroller can be a daunting task. With endless options in the marketplace, we decided to dig deep and we struck GOLD: Evenflo introduced app-enabled safety technology, trendy designs, top of the line guarantees and other smart features to their products in their new Evenflo Gold line— and as the name implies, this gear will be a total treasure, especially for digitally-savvy parents. Plus, scroll down for  a special discount code!

Evenflo Gold Line

There are five products to this line, but today we’re focusing on the EveryStage Car Seat and Pivot Xpand Stroller System today.

Evenflo Gold Line Everystage

Evenflo Gold Line: EveryStage Car Seat

We love this car seat because it’s an all-in-one, grow-with-your child ride, hence the name. At the heart of this car seat, is the innovative SensorSafeTM technology. Here’s how it works: You download the free SensorSafeTM app and buckle babe to activate SensorSafeTM. The app syncs with the chest clip and alerts you the moment an issue arises with the buckle, harness or babe’s temperature. This incredible technology lets you stay focused on the road and can help to alleviate a great deal of anxiety that can come with driving with little ones in the car.

Aside from the high-tech advancements, the rest of the design is equally impressive. In the EveryStage Car Seat, babe will love the plush, premium fabric and ergonomic, durable accents. And you will love the premium level of protection and performance that’s ready to grow with your kiddo—it can hold up to 120 pounds! It also features EasyClick Installation that makes your babe’s strap 3x tighter than competitors—the wiggle-free ride is a game-changer. Another item to note is the in-seat reclining feature when your baby is little and rear-facing provides additional head support which also helps to keep airways open.

Evenflo Gold Line Pivot Xpand

Evenflo Gold Line: Pivot Xpand Modular Travel System with SecureMax Smart Infant Car Seat

Evenflo Gold goes above and beyond the expected—and luckily for us parents, you can rock and stroll with the Pivot Xpand with ease. A few key points: You don’t need any additional parts or tools to convert it from a single to a double stroller, and it can be configured 22 ways to make sure the transition from infant to a 55-pound-kiddo (or two!) is safe and comfy during all stages of growth.

The system includes one toddler seat as well as the SecureMax Smart Infant Car Seat, which has the same incredible SensorSafeTM technology built-in to provide total peace of mind for parents.

Priced at $499, this modular stroller system is especially an awesome option for expectant or new parents who plan to have more children in the next couple years. With the Pivot Xpand stroller, you won’t have to worry about needing to purchase a double stroller down the road.

Evenflo’s dedication to safety, quality, innovation and accessibility puts them on our radar. And bonus: If they’re on yours, try out their Gold gear for 100 days and enjoy a lifetime warranty. Plus, their customer care team, ParentLink, will help you install your car seat with live video installation support! Use discount code GUGUGURU10 for 10% off your purchase.

Newborn Must Haves for Active Families

by Abby Ludwig Leave a Comment

Are you getting ready to welcome your little one? We were so thrilled to work with popular fitness influencer, Dasha Anderson (founder of Kettlebell Kickboxing) and her husband Dan as they prepared to welcome their first little lady! Fitness plays a big role in their household and we wanted to highlight that with our picks for this active couple. Below we teamed up with Dasha and Dan to look back on the past few months since welcoming Baby Ariana and highlight some of their favorite newborn essentials for active families.

Cybex Balios Stroller and Cybex Q Car Seat: Dasha has described this easy-to-use travel system as, “Sleek and comfortable! The car seat and stroller have been both hiking with me and strolling through New York City. The baby loves it and we feel stylish and secure in it. The safety features alone make this travel system a no brainer.” This travel system was an excellent choice for Dasha’s lifestyle both in and out of the city! Since Dasha lives just outside of NYC, weather can be a factor. We recommended she pair her stroller and car seat with the 7AM Enfant Poncho (great for the carrier or the stroller!) and Blanket 212 Evolution (also great for the stroller!) to help keep her little lady warm no matter what!

Joeyband

Joeyband by Sleepbelt: We love the Joeyband for new parents and Dasha’s family was no exception. When seated, the Joeyband offers hands-free support to baby, making those early days of skin-to-skin significantly easier. This was such an easy way to promote bonding between Dasha, her husband, and Baby Ari.

Fridababy Baby Basics Kit

Fridababy Baby Basics Kit: This kit is a must for any registry. The Nose Frida is now used in nearly every household with a newborn and the NailFrida makes nail clipping not so scary. The Cradle Cap brush will also help with those early baths. But the real must-have here is the Windi, which will help relieve baby’s gas in dire situations!

Diaper Dekor

Diaper Dekor: We loved this Diaper Pail for Dasha, because aesthetically it doesn’t scream “Dirty Diapers inside!” It does an excellent job keeping odors out of the room and comes in three sizes. It is completely hands-free, won’t dent or rust and can be converted to a regular trash can once you’re done with the diaper stage!

Love to Dream

Love to Dream Swaddle: Our favorite swaddles by Love to Dream allow baby to keep his/her hands up while still giving them that tight, womblike feeling. “Love to Dream Swaddles are the best because like most modern parents we spent some nights traveling to Grandmas or taking baby to our gym. The swaddle created a level of consistency no matter the crib or the setting!” These will help baby sleep well no matter where you are!

Belli Skincare

Belli Skincare Hello Glow Bundle: This bundle, which includes the Healthy Glow Facial Hydrator & Moisturizer and the Eye Brightening Cream is a favorite amongst our new moms. “Skin care is tricky when you have baby – you need the best products with the most natural ingredients. My skin was super dry and I had a hard time keeping up with my skin care routine. Belli made it easy! The consistency was great enough to have on all day and into night with no reapplication for a busy mom.”

4moms Breeze

4moms Breeze Playard: Having recently moved into a house and being a dog mom, Dasha needed somewhere that her little miss could play safely. “It is great to give your baby a safe and secure place in the home to move for tummy time or play time. It [also] really helps new moms actually run to the bathroom! Was anyone else scared to do this in the first few weeks?”

Baby K'tan Active

Baby K’tan Carrier: Since Dasha does so much work from home, we recommended the Baby K’tan carrier to use immediately after arriving home from the hospital. Also, we love the K’tan Active here for obvious reasons! “Baby K’tan was amazing for a working mom trying to get things done! It’s literally the only way I was able to type anything and the main reason I was caught up on my inbox. Plus the baby never felt like I was neglecting her.”

Crane Humidifier

Crane Humidifier: We love the Crane Humidifier for so many reasons! Dasha was due in February in New York, an extremely dry and cold time of year. To keep humidity up during the cold months, Dasha set up the Crane humidifier in the nursery. This is also super helpful when baby has his/her first cold, inevitable in the winter!

Stokke Tripp Trapp

Stokke Tripp Trapp w/ Newborn Seat: While it is an investment, this was Dasha’s top recommended product. “In all honesty, this was the BEST item on my list mainly because of the mileage we’ve put in this elegant chair. The newborn attachment allowed me to eat dinner, drink coffee, and answer email like a regular person – all while still being with my baby.”

Dasha is also the founder of Kettlebell Kickboxing and has created a series of fitness programs that are easy to complete at home with very little (or no!) equipment. Check them out today!

What’s New on Gugu: July 3, 2019

by Abby Ludwig Leave a Comment

I have found a great lineup of products this week. A couple new pieces of technology, which will help with both feeding and sleep are new finds. We also took a look at the newest travel stroller to hit the market. Plus, there are some excellent accessories to help make breastfeeding more efficient.

For a number of our other favorites, please check out our Explore page!

Mammaway Freeze It Flat

Mammaway Freeze It Flat: An innovative way to freeze your breastmilk stash! Using breastmilk storage bags, simply pump your milk, place into the Freeze it Flat, and stick in the freezer. Once frozen, your stored milk will take up significantly less space. Great for working moms who have to pump at the office!

BlueSmart Mia2

BlueSmart Mia2: A new baby gift for your technologically saavy friend. The BlueSmart Mia2 will automatically record what your baby eats (and for how long) at each feeding. Pairing with an app via Bluetooth, you will no longer have to manually keep track of each feeding. Plus, it is compatible with most baby bottles!

Hatch Baby Rest Plus

Hatch Baby Rest Plus: One of our favorite sound machine/nightlights has now received an upgrade. Pair with their app to create a truly essential product for sleep that will grow with your little one. Now an audio monitor as well as a digital clock, this is a must have for any nursery.

Larken X Bra

Larken X Bra: Made of moisture-wicking, ultrasoft fabric, this nursing/pumping bra will be a great addition to your wardrobe. It allows you to pump hands-free without having to undress or change and is comfy enough to keep on all day long. There are also no snaps, zippers, or tags, making it far more comfortable as your size fluctuates.
