Baby & Toddler Gift Guide
The holidays are upon us and I want to help you build your wish list. Some of my favorite baby & toddler products make great gifts & stocking stuffers. And don’t worry, I’ve included some of my favorite parent-products too because what are the holidays if we’re not treating ourselves, am I right?
[By the way, I independently source and vet any products that I choose to share on my site. If you buy from some of the links I’ve provided, I may receive a small commission, which in turn supports my work.]
For The Baby
Lovevery is a subscription-based company that sends out beautiful boxes with intentional play objects specifically for your child’s age range. Each box comes with a booklet that helps to explain what your child is working on developmentally and how to incorporate the included toys. This is one of those things that feels pricey but is totally worth it!
Stimulate the senses with this exciting play mat for babies. Perfect for floor time, tummy time, and music time. With detachable components, you can bring the fun anywhere! This is by far a fan-fave for shower registries, so if you don’t own one already, now’s the time!
If you’re planning to do baby-led weaning or any type of self-feeding, a bib with a pocket to catch extra food is a necessity. Practical and cute!
Give your arms a break and let your baby relax in my favorite bouncer. Just remember to strap baby in appropriately, monitor them at all times, and never use it for sleep!
The softest and stretchy-est swaddle blankets and sleepers around.
As someone with a background in child development, open-ended toys that target fine-motor skills, cognitive planning, and involve narration about size and color are a must-have in my book!
For The Toddler
Learning towers help your child get involved and encourage togetherness & interaction. A perfect solution for baking Christmas cookies and making memories during the holiday season and beyond!
A cult classic! This play couch has infinite configurations and is perfect for playing and lounging.
An Amazon dupe for the expensive Pottery Barn play kitchen. Such an exciting gift for any toddler to wake up to on Christmas morning.
A big-ticket item that’s a great addition to any list and will help your toddler stay in their bed all night long. Win-win!

Okay, this one is actually for you. Literally, this stuff is magic. Stains disappear right in front of your eyes. This is a must-have for messy eaters!
For You
Put your partner on kid-duty and block out the world!
Give your sleep environment the upgrade it needs with my favorite bedside tool. This all-in-one sound machine, reading light, and alarm clock is a bonus to anyone putting “more sleep” on their holiday wish list.
Pamper yourself outside of the house with a trip to the spa. Alone time can be incredibly rejuvenating and I can almost guarantee you’ll return to the family refreshed, restored, and a better version of yourself!
Date Night Babysitter
The perfect last-minute but heavy-hitter gift.
Give (or get yourself) the gift of sleep this holiday season. New year-new you will thank you!
Wishing your family a happy & healthy holiday season!
