Baby & Toddler Companies You Should Know About :: From Babyboom Events

Baby & Toddler Companies

Every year I attend an event in NYC called Babypalooza or Babyboom. It’s one of my favorite events because I always walk away having learned about some amazing companies for babies, toddlers or family life in general. This years event was virtual and while I did miss the in person social aspect of it, I still learned about some new companies I can’t wait to try with Cayson & Baby C.

Since I received so many questions about the event and the companies when I shared snippets on Instagram, I thought I would share a full roundup of the companies with you all here!

NONE of this is sponsored,
I just wanted to share the companies I learned about!
All opinions are my own.

  • Any Baby :: Confession, the crawling stage is one of my least favorite stages. Don’t get me wrong- it’s super cute and I LOVE this stage. But I really don’t love the scraped and bruised knees. Any Baby designed an eco-friendly playsuit with cushioned knees, elbows and grippy feet..
  • Boiron :: Growing up my family actually kept Oscillococcinum on hand for flu season. I love knowing Boiron is homeopathic. I didn’t know the company made baby items when Cayson was a baby, but we already stocked up on their baby & kids items for Baby C. I’m excited to try their Colic & Gas relief, Teething relief, & Cold relief drops.
  • Cuties :: Cuties makes diapers and wipes that are “super soft, super absorbent and super safe” for sensitive skin. We haven’t tried these, but the designs sure are cute!
  • Daniel Tiger by Fred Rogers Productions :: We really love this show! The music is catchy and I love knowing Cayson is learning valuable life lessons. We’ve watched the episode about Daniel becoming a big brother half a dozen times in preparation for Baby C. We will also likely start watching the potty training episodes soon too.
  • Ergobaby :: Ergobaby Carriers are popular for a reason. While I’ve never actually used one, I’ve always been impressed by the ergonomic design.
  • Evivo :: This infant probiotic was designed by a scientist and is the only probiotic that contains B. infantis EVC001- a strain clinically proven to create a protective environment in a baby’s gut. We haven’t tried it, but was intrigued to learn the science behind it!
  • GoWhee App :: I’m so excited to start traveling again and to use this app! Even here in NYC it will be helpful. GoWhee is a crowd-sourced app where families share kid-friendly spots around the world. It shares reviews, photos, ratings and everything parents might be searching for while traveling- from playgrounds to changing tables or stroller friendly to things to do!
  • Happy Family Organics :: If you’ve followed me for a while, you know we LOVE Happy Family Organics. Their yogis, puffs, teethers and fiber bars are our favorite! When we travel we ALWAYS pack a few of these in our suitcase.
  • Hello Bello :: There are so many reasons I love this company. First of all, Kristen Bell & Dax Shepard are co-founders {and who doesn’t love them?}. Second, literally every product I’ve tried of theirs we love. Our entire family has used their gummy vitamins {Cayson still takes the multivitamin daily- he loves it}. Their diapers are too cute and their bath items are some of our favorite! They prioritize using quality, renewable, plant-based ingredients. Trust me, go check out their products!
  • Lil Mixins :: Food allergies are becoming more and more common. This company worked with allergists, dietitians, food scientists, and baby-industry experts to create organic, infant safe food supplements to help train your baby’s stomach to tolerate nuts and eggs. We will probably try this with baby C!
  • Mommy’s Bliss :: We actually used this company with Cayson and will definitely use it again with Baby C. Mommy’s Bliss was created by a mom/pediatric nurse/midwife/doula and uses only ‘wise ingredients.’ Their baby probiotics, constipation ease, baby gas relief and gripe water are game changers- especially in the early months. These are must haves for me.
  • Mory June :: Designed by a momma of 8 kids {in 10 years- wow go momma!}, this is a all-in-one diaper bag + Moses basket. It looks like it would be great for long days out and about {maybe at the beach or at the park}. I’m not sure if the Moses basket is sleep safe, but the concept is interesting and I love how easy it would make diaper changes!
  • Nanobébé :: I’m so excited to use these with Baby C. We didn’t know about them when Cayson took a bottle, but there are so many reasons I’m excited to use them this second time around. I’ll be doing a full blog post about this company and my breastfeeding/pumping suggestions soon. But in the meantime, Nanobébé products are nutrient-preserving and incredibly well designed. If you or a friend is pregnant- i HIGHLY recommend looking into these bottles!
  • Nightfood Nightime Ice Cream :: It’s no secret- I love ice cream. What I love about this company is they focus on making nutritional ice cream- think less sugar, fewer calories, no artificial sweeteners, no erythritol and lots of calcium, zinc and magnesium. I have my eye on the Mint Chip, Cold Brew Decaf, and Midnight Chocolate. They also have a pickle flavor for those pregnant mommas craving pickles.
  • Philips Avent :: Most people have heard of this UK brand- and for good reason. Cayson love(s/d) their pacifiers. We’re trying to break this habit, but know we will use them with Baby C as well!
  • Romp + Tumble :: This company reminds me of a Rent The Runway concept, but for kids 0-36 months. It’s a monthly subscription plan where they send you seasonally appropriate and age appropriate clothing for your kids. You can keep the items for as long as you want or exchange items monthly!
  • Simply Chickie :: This USA made company uses GOTS certified organic cotton and is free of pesticides (so they don’t pollute our environment). I have my eye on their NYC onesie & baby hat for Baby C.
  • SpoonsfulOne :: This company creates foods to help combat food allergies- from peanuts and eggs to selfish and grains. Since we did more of the baby led weaning feeding style with Cayson, I love that they have some proper snacks you can serve your little ones to help combat allergies, rather than just offering powders to mix into purees and oats.
  • The Manhattan Toy Company :: I had not heard of this company before, but the quality of their toys all seem great! They did send us a little toy for Baby C- so be sure to follow on Instagram to see how he likes it when he arrives this fall!
  • Tula :: Tula is another brand that is popular for a reason! We didn’t use the Tula with Cayson, but have thought about getting one for Baby C. I love how small they can roll up to be and the designs fit our general aesthetic.
  • Window Covering Council :: As a momma with a toddler who thinks everything is a play toy, it was great to learn more about window cord safety.

Thank you BABYBOOM for hosting such a wonderful event!

    I ordered some of the Boiron products for cold/flu after your instagram post. Hoping we don’t have to use them this fall, but excited to have a homeopathic option if it comes to it!
