Build a shopping checklist that fits your family
Tell us a little about how you’re planning to feed, where baby’ll sleep, your climate and your budget. We’ll suggest what’s actually worth buying — and you can fine-tune every line and download the list before you shop.

Newborn essentials
A short, realistic list of what actually gets used in the first weeks — filtered to your feeding plan, sleep setup and climate.
Hospital bag
Pack for labour, recovery and the first 24 hours — filtered to your birth place, delivery plan, feeding intent and the season.
Postpartum recovery kit
The honest, buy-the-smallest-pack list for the first two weeks after birth — split by delivery type and feeding plan.
Breastfeeding starter kit
A right-sized kit for early breastfeeding — with a deliberate 'borrow the pump before you buy' bias and backup bottles.
Nursery setup
Build a safe, workable sleep space first, then add only what earns its place — gated by room size, sleep-surface plan and budget.
Baby-proofing
A room-by-room home-safety list that right-sizes to your baby's mobility stage and the actual features of your home — not a blanket 'buy every gadget' list.
Starting solids / weaning kit
You don't need everything on day one. Build a right-sized weaning kit around your method, your kitchen and how much prep you'll actually do.
Second baby: what changes
A keep-vs-rebuy-vs-skip list for baby number two — because most of the big stuff carries over, and the things that don't are specific.
First trip away with baby
Pack for a weekend (or a flight) with a young baby without dragging the house with you — split by how you're travelling and the climate.
