Baby Carries
There will be a number of errands that you will have to do and you may have to take Baby with you wherever you go. The easiest and most cost-effective way of getting around is to place Baby in a baby carrier. Look out for carriers that are sturdy yet lightweight, and distribute weight evenly across your shoulders, hips and lumbar area. Carriers with flexible 3D mesh incorporated will also help disperse heat and moisture, keeping Baby and yourself cool and comfortable at all times.

Baby Traveling Accessories
It is quite natural that you will want to go on an outing with Baby even if it’s just for a visit to Grandma’s house. Nevertheless, you will need to pack all of Baby’s essentials like diapers, clothes, feeding bottles, pacifier, extra mittens and spare bootees. Look out for nursery bags that are lightweight and sturdy, with zip pockets for easy storage and adjustable straps.

Worried that bulky nursery bags may cramp your style? Check out Tollyjoy’s water-resistant, easy-to-clean nursery bags which come in attractive designs and colours. If you’re a breast-feeding mother, work commitments or even regular activities can take you away from Baby during feeding time. Invest in a good breast pump and disposable milk storage bags to safely store expressed milk. What’s more, a milk bottle cooler bag that comes with a refrigerant brick is a great traveling tool. Milk can be kept safely cool for up to 12 hours but is conveniently at hand for a hungry baby.
