4-in-1 Nursing Shawl |
Company: | L'ovedbaby |
|
The L'ovedbaby nursing shawl is sleek, subtle, soft and a great gift for the new mother. This nursing shawl will last throughout infancy, whether or not you are nursing, because it offers great versatility. It offers one size fits all ordering, so there is nothing to measure for a sure fit. The material is so soft, I just love it.
Not only can you use the 4-in-1 nursing shawl as a cover for breastfeeding, but it is also great to use as a carseat cover, a bassinet cover, a blanket, or as a cover in the stroller... I am sure you will find a myriad of uses that I have not even incorporated. The handy size offers a great way to use one product for multiple purposes, saving in the areas of time, storage, and in money. The shawl comes with its own matching drawstring pouch, which helps you to tuck it away in even a purse or diaper bag easily, keeping it fresh and in easy reach. The shawl is very lightweight and is made of a beautiful, breathable fabric, with many colors to choose from. It is completely wash and dry safe. If you are looking for that one item that will serve the greatest purpose, and be the most meaningful, I highly suggest the 4-in-1 nursing shawl by L'oved Baby. These are truly excellent. <<<- (2008) RETURN TO TOP |

Adiri Natural Nurser |
Company: | Adiri, Inc. |
|
In recent news there has been much upheaval concerning the dangers baby bottles
pose to our infants, due to the chemicals within the plastics used to make them.
[see our report here]. The Adiri Natural Nurser removes these fears because they are 100% Bisphenol-A & polycarbonate FREE and I am so happy to be able to introduce this bottle to you, for multiple reasons but mainly this one! It is SAFE!
The Adiri Natural Nurser is not only safe, it is convenient. Offering a simple Fill, Twist and Feed™ system, the Adiri Natural Nurser helps parents and caregivers, enabling them to quickly prepare a bottle, even with a hungry infant under one arm. The Adiri Natural Nurser resembles the look and feel of a mother's breast, which helps a newborn take to it more easily than other bottles. The nurser comes complete with a sleek cover that keeps the bottle clean and ready to use in an instant. There are three colors / sizes to choose from : newborn , 3-6 months , and 6 mo +. The only difference in them is the flow of the nipple and the color of the bottle. The sleek and beautiful design remains the same, as does the 8 oz capacity they offer. When considering the best alternative to breastfeeding, the Adiri Natural Nurser should be the first in line. Well priced, safe for baby, and easy to use. The nursers are safe in the dishwasher or in sterilization machines. You simply won't find better. <<<- (2008) RETURN TO TOP |

Baby Bath Gate |
Company: | Baby First Corporation |
|
The Baby Bath Gate is an innovative, genius idea that was created by a mother who has been there - done that.
When her daughter chipped a tooth on the bathtub faucet, Susan knew there had to be a better way to protect wee ones from the pitfalls of a bathtub not designed for them, yet used by them daily. This was the beginning of the Baby Bath Gate.
Easy to install, you will have it set up in a moment. Also easy to take loose when it is time for your bath. Made if durable and easy to clean material, this safety guard will keep your child away from the faucet and drain in the tub. Not only will this keep your child from a chipped tooth, but from scalds, getting their toe stuck or whatever else they may come up with during bath time. Now you can bathe your child with peace of mind and not have a battle to keep them in the safe area of the tub. We think every child should have one of these at bath time - it is simply a no brainer. <<<- (2008) RETURN TO TOP | Buy Now & Save $25.93

BabyPlus prenatal education system |
Company: | The Babyplus Company LLC |
|
babyplus has been independently tested and proven to give infants a head start and advantage in intellect, development, emotions and creativity. Around since 1989, babyplus provides a prenatal education system for your baby. Using sounds similar to the mother's heartbeat, your infant will learn to distinguish the difference
between the learning system and the mother's own heartbeat.
It is recommended that the system be used between weeks 18 and 32 and continued through the time of birth. babyplus is simple to use, as everything is preprogrammed for you. Simply place the babyplus in the carry pouch, strap it around your waist with speaker facing inward. Even the volume level is preset so it is safe for baby, yet easy for them to hear. Babies begin learning from the womb, yet the use of words or music is a bit too far advanced and complex for there to be a benefit to the infant. The babyplus system meets them at their level, from inside mother's womb. Mothers will feel an added bonding with their child, as they feel baby responding to the sound from within. You will most likely feel baby moving in sync with the sounds being emitted from the babyplus. Parents want the best for their child and want them to learn the most they can, as early as they can. The babyplus system assures parents that they have done all they can to begin this process from the very beginning of life. babyplus is small, simple to use, light to wear and is enjoyable because you know you are wearing this to help your wee one. You place it on for an hour a day, twice a day for the best results. I liked to use this as my rest time, so I was able to pay attention to the reaction of my baby. I would place the babyplus on my tummy, lie back and enjoy this time with my baby. Not only was this good for baby, it was good for me. I enjoyed this time greatly each day. <<<- (2008) RETURN TO TOP |

Baby Signs Starter Kit |
Company: | Baby Signs, Inc. |
|
Many parents have now started using sign language to communicate with their infants, before they are able to speak the english language. Prior to being able to form words with their mouths, babies can form words with their hands. Asking for water, food, toys, etc. is easier for them using this method, until language skills develop over time.
The Baby Signs Starter Kit was developed to help parents of infants have the basics needed at their finger tips. Now if you wish to encourage signing with your infant, you will be able to cut through the clutter and the hype that many programs fill a book or box with, and get right to the core of the matter and teach your child what they need to know to communicate with you, using sign language. The kit comes complete with books, lists, dvds, and a parent guide. Once you have gone through this set, you will have the confidence that you and your child will be successful using this method. <<<- (2008) RETURN TO TOP |

The Original Bath Bib |
Company: | The Original Bath Bib Company, LLC |
|
FINALLY!!! The answer to our bath time woes - The original bath bib is here!
I absolutely LOVE this product! Not only does it make drying off baby easier, once the bath is finished, wearing it during the bath kept my clothes dry which normally get soaked because of baby's splashing water up on the side. I think this aspect thrilled me as much as the ease of placing baby in it after the bath and bundling her for drying... but that is just me. The Bath Bib is very simple to use, simple to put on and take off and is so soft and cuddly warm for baby after a bath. It soaks up the water nicely, and is large enough to wrap them in well. It washes nicely and stays true to size and shape after laundering. Tha Bath Bib lends a hand to us busy moms. We can never have enough hands, and bathtime is no different. Usually we have to hold on to them, grab for the towel, try to position it in place and then grab the baby and try to get them into the towel correctly where they are actually covered (at least a little) ... Well, this great solution was the answer to that scene! You just hook around your neck with the velcro, put baby in it, then when you go to lay them down it is easy to unhook the velcro with one hand and dry baby off. Innovative! Well made! and well loved - by me - and baby! Thanks to The Original Bath Bib Company for a wonderful product that obviously came to be because they have been there - done that. <<<- (2008) RETURN TO TOP |

CARES |
Company: | Kids Fly Safe |
|
>>> CARES carries a 22 - 44 lb. Size recommendation, up to 40" tall, ages 1 yr - 4 yrs.
>>> CARES is manufactured by AmSafe Aviation, the leading manufacturer of aviation seatbelts and pilot restraints. >>> CARES is the only Child Safety Device certified by the FAA as an alternative to a car seat. Flying with children can be difficult at the best of times. Carrying a carseat along, to ensure your child is safely restrained ranks right up there with self imposed torture. However, placing a small child in a plane seat with merely a seatbelt in place is not only uncomfortable for them, it does no good in keeping them safe. CARES offers a handy and practical solution, by offering a safe and FAA approved safety restraint system that is not only easy to use, it is easy to carry with you. CARES works along with the seatbelt in place on the plane, to ensure both safety and comfort for your child. Airlines now require that all children over the age of two be ticketed and in their own seat. Usually this means parents have to carry on a massive carseat, just to have a safe place for their little one to sit. Not any more. Now you can check your carseat in with your luggage (if you need it at the other end of the trip) and only bring CARES on the plane to secure your wee one. This makes your load much lighter and your trip much easier and carefree. Your child will be as safe in CARES as they would be in a carseat, for the plane ride. Please note: this is not a device to be used in a motor vehicle - only airplanes. Because this device is approved by the FAA it may be used on any airline, anywhere. If traveling with a child has seemed like a burden up till now, please know that CARES will help to make your path a little easier and your load a little lighter. Now you can travel with ease and not have to worry about getting from point A to point B safely. <<<- (2007) RETURN TO TOP |

Cooshee Changer |
Company: | BabySmart USA |
|
The Cooshee Changer by Babysmart is not only smart for baby, it is smart for mom (and dad!).
The Cooshee Changer is a revolutionary new changing station that offers a sleek and stylish design, yet offers every practical convenience, safety feature, and health protection savvy moms have come to expect for their infants, yet can so rarely find in this type of product. This is the first changer I have found that is so simple to use, while offering a smart design that discourages roll overs during changes, offers simple clean up, and is warm when you place baby on it, without the use of covers. Some of the great features the Cooshee Changer offers are: The Cooshee Changer is molded to keep baby in place securely, while you are busy changing their bum, or sponge bathing a newborn. The surface is so easy to wipe clean, with a wet wipe or washcloth with soap and water. There is no need to worry if it gets wet, as it is made to be 100% waterproof. Simply wipe up the wetness, and you are ready for the next changing. One of the greatest features I personally love about this product is the material it is made of makes it warm when you lay baby down for a change. There is nothing worse than a cold surface to bring a cringe or tears to a baby when you are simply trying to change them. Now, without the use of a cover, you will have a warm surface to place baby on, for those multiple diaper or clothing changes each day. This is simply one of those products that you look at, you try it, and you think - BRILLIANT! The design is solid, with a sleek enough shape that it is easily stored when not in use. However, it looks great enough to be left out, if you have the room. This is a well priced, well made product that is simply a MUST HAVE! <<<- (2008) RETURN TO TOP | Gold Award | Press Release | Company Profile |

CleanRest Crib Encasement |
Company: | CleanBrands LLC |
|
Infants are exposed to many toxins in the air they breathe, as we all are.
The problem with this is infants have less immunity built up to fight against them.
Leading studies show that infants who are exposed to allergens while sleeping are more likely to develop problems such as allergies or asthma, either while young or in later years.
Now there is a solution to the problem. By using the Crib Encasement, by CleanBrands, you will significantly reduce the chances of sleeptime exposure to allergens, dust mites, and other micro-toxins which live in mattresses. These mattress cases fully envelop the mattress, leaving no exposure to the toxins within and simply zip closed. The CleanRest Crib Encasement is waterproof, which is very handy when being used in a baby crib and enables you to have the benefit of not only an allergen barrier but a waterproof pad all in one. These are easy to place on the mattress and easy to keep clean. The CleanRest Crib Encasement is fully washable by machine and they suggest keeping it at its peak performance power by laundering it every 8 weeks, in hot water, and hot dryer. *** FITS STANDARD CRIBS AND YOUTH BEDS ABOUT THE TECHNOLOGY [from their website]: After years of development and repeated testing, CleanRest® is proud to introduce MicronOne™ fabric technology, the world’s most advanced allergen barrier. MicronOne guarantees that the maximum (not the average) fabric pore size of any CleanRest® encasement product is just 1 micron (that's 20,000 times smaller than a raindrop). This is critical, because common allergic triggers can be as small as 2 or 3 microns in size. In addition to blocking all allergens from penetrating the sleep environment, MicronOne is totally breathable. So you and your family will be fully protected without sacrificing any comfort. <<<- (2007) RETURN TO TOP |

DaBib |
Company: | Chez Shea Baby, Inc |
|
DaBib is DaBomb! Having tried numerous bibs for my child, looking for one that is comfortable, practical, and absorbent, I have become an instant fan of DaBib after trying it the first time. DaBib is (A) easy to get on. No more tying those straps which never fail to come loose or become something to annoy baby. DaBib comes with a front closure system that makes placing it on and removing it a snap. DaBib is (B) waterproof. Ever have it happen? Baby spills their sippy cup and you would swear no bib was in place, because the front of their shirt is entirely stained and wet? Well, now that problem is solved. This bib stops leaks from getting through. 
DaBib comes with (C) a crumbcatcher. This is a must have when feeding snacks to our infants. Instead of them wearing the crumbs down on their pant legs, DaBib catches those crumbs and makes it easy to shake them out to dispose of when finished. DaBib is (D) washable. While most bibs are washable, the reason I like the DaBib is it doesn't shrink and scrunch up and when you do this. It also doesn't cause the waterproof backing to come loose where it becomes unusable quickly, as you will find in bibs that have a rubber barrier. What you see when it goes in to wash is what you see when it comes out of the dryer.... well, minus the mess. DaBib has (E) a scrunchy neckline, which makes it stop the mess that usually leaks in between the neckline and baby's clothes. This makes it not only convenient and tidy, but it is also super comfortable for baby. The HUGS style offers a wipe off front and waterproof barrier backing. The GIGGLES style offers a terry front which is super soft and comfy, and again a waterproof backing. These are a welcome find in our household and I encourage you to check them out. This is an investment that will save you more than it costs, in just the clothing it saves from the massive stains you are used to with other store bought bibs. Beautiful choices in design and color await you. This is that perfect baby shower gift you have been looking for. This product is 100% Polycarbonate, Phthalates, Rubber, Vinyl, and Lead Free <<<- (2007) RETURN TO TOP | Gold Award | Press Release | Company Profile |

Giggles : Computer Funtime For Baby |
Company: | Leveractive |
|
3 Great titles - 3 Great ways for baby and toddler to experience the computer in a fun, engaging, and safe manner.
Leveractive has taken the curiosity and exploratory nature of infants and toddlers, captured it, and created a program that is both stimulating and educational. With every press of a key (any key on the keyboard) fun things will happen and the screen will come to life. As they learn what response happens for their actions, they will begin choosing their favorite areas to go to, but even the very novice baby at 6 months can press a key and have the delight of seeing that action produce the reaction on the screen. Offering 3 titles, Leveractive currently offers Shapes - ABC's & 123's - and Animal Friends. All three are simply charming and delightful. At the Leveractive website you will learn detailed information about each title and be able to take a video tour. This is a great way to see just how wonderful these are, as well as how affordable it now is to entertain your infant in a new manner you never before thought possible, at such a young age. What I like about these software titles is the fact that even the very youngest ones, able to sit on your knee and be interested in such an activity, can explore a whole new world that has not been available to them prior. Not that we want infants hooked on computers, but to have this as an activity you can do together, exploring and engaging in something they learn by is beneficial and allows for that extra moment of bonding in a new manner. Giggles creates an inviting environment for the young, and even us young at heart will enjoy these programs, as we explore them through the eyes of our children. Seeing their excitement only adds to our appreciation for what they will experience through these titles. The programs are well laid out and offer rich, colorful graphics and a very professional, yet child friendly appearance. Engaging in the programs is easy and truly does only take the touch of the keyboard to start the action. My Animal Friends offers 14 activities and over 60 songs. Shapes offers 14 activities and over 50 songs. ABC's & 123's offers 14 activities and over 50 songs. - Includes spanish and english versions. - PC & Mac compatible. <<<- (2007) RETURN TO TOP | |

ReliaDose |
Company: | Blaine Pharmaceuticals |

If you have had the experience of trying again and again to get baby to take medicine,
while trying to figure out how much they actually ingest because they continue to
spit it out and up ... you will understand why I say that ReliaDose is a godsend to
parents!
ReliaDose masks the ucky taste of medicine, and allows you the ease of safely dosing them with their meds too. The system is simple but brilliant. ReliaDose looks like a baby bottle - and is! With one slight difference. It also contains a syringe that you use to give baby her medicine while the bottle gives her what she enjoys drinking (formula, juice, water etc). You simply fill the bottle with baby's favorite drink - put on the lid - fill the syringe with the correct dose of medicine - place in the bottle and dispense! Simple - no fuss - *both in amount of work involved and no fuss from baby either!* Baby now has her medicine and you have relief of mind! This is good for all over the counter medicines, prescribed meds, as well as vitamins and supplements. Recommended for newborn to 18 months. Recommended BY any mother who has tried it, I am sure! <<<- (2007) RETURN TO TOP |
