New mama's, this one is for you. We set out to separate the average from the excellent and have come up with our top 10 New Mama picks for 2022 so you can confidently shop until your hearts content. If you’re expecting or enjoying those newborn cuddles, we hope this list is helpful!
01/ Got You Deluxe Labour + Postpartum Recovery Bag, RRP $349
As a mums’ due date looms, so many questions start to crop up. When should my hospital bag be packed? What size hospital bag do I need? Which hospital bag checklist is the best? It is one of the main reasons why we fell in love with Got You’s bff-in-a-bag. Offering a total solution to labour and postpartum recovery, their products are designed in-house to ensure quality and (huge bonus!) it works out cheaper than sourcing the individual items yourself. #NoMarkUp
02/ My Warren Hill Quilted Linen Baby Play Mat, RRP $154.95
These luxuriously soft baby play mats are made from 100% Pure French Flax Linen, giving them an incredibly soft, worn-in feel that is gentle on baby’s delicate skin. Each play mat is OKEO-Tex 100 Certified meaning they are proven free of toxic substances. New mums need peace of mind and My Warren Hill deliver.
03/ Happy Hair Brush Mother Brush, RRP $79.95
Basic self-care is a necessity for all mums: who could argue that?! We tried and tested (note: on very thick hair!) Happy Hairbrush’s Mother Brush and couldn't believe how great it feels. Featuring a super lightweight design for those early 6am mornings, extra long nylon pins to massage your scalp and boar bristles to distribute natural oils throughout your hair, it definitely adds a touch of luxury to your morning routine.
04/ Monkey Tree Store
Being a small family business in Ocean Grove, Victoria, Monkey Tree Store are passionate about bringing quality, trending kids and baby brands into the homes of children Australia-wide: rural, regional and beyond! Shipping cult faves like Miniland, Two Darlings, BIBS and Snuggle Hunny Kids, there is something for every mum and bub, no matter your style.
05/ Baby Hood Kaylula Sova Cot Clear, RRP $1,549
Made from sustainable European beechwood, the Kaylula Sova Cot is a revolution. The clear panels are a unique design, allowing your baby to see straight out into the world as soon as they open their eyes. We also loved how whisper quiet it was to move from room to room, easily fitting through doors and around furniture. An absolute mama-must-have if you value your Zzzzz's!
06/ Never Not Australia Knit Leggings & Confetti Pullover, RRP $77
I think we can all agree investing in quality baby clothes means they can be handed down and used again and again, while still looking cute and near-new. Never Not's gender neutral designs are timeless and we loved pairing their ribbed Knit Leggings with a slightly oversized Sprinkle Confetti pullover for a loungey, winter-day look. Who said toddlers can't be trendy?!
07/ Nuage Interiors Cloud Rocker and Ottoman, RRP $1,980
If you haven’t discovered the hype around Nuage Interiors’ divine bouclé rocker and ottoman: we are here to transform your nursery world! Evoking a serene feeling of sanctuary, the beautiful curves and accents of the Cloud Rocker help to bring the room to life, fitting in perfectly with almost any nursery style. The Rocker and Ottoman also comes in a soft, Ash Grey colour.
08/ Stamp and Shine
As a new mum it can be so hard to give back to yourself when in the midst of feeding, sleepless nights and juggling the day-to-day. Stamp and Shine is an Australian business creating dainty metal-stamped jewelry pieces in a number of motherhood-inspired collections. We love their Mama + Mini collection most!
09/ Bunnie Caddie in Tan, RRP $120
Fusing practicality with style, we cannot get enough of the ever-stylish Bunnie Caddie. This genius product was voted Winner in The Innovator category in The Memos Awards 2022 by thousands of Aussie parents and we can 100% see why! The luxe, structured felt outer holds so many newborn essentials whilst adding a soft, sophisticated look to the nursery when perched atop a dresser or changing table.
10/ Milky Goodness
Embarking on the breastfeeding journey, whether it's your first time or your fifth time, can be daunting. Milky Goodness offer a range of products designed to support feeding and lactation. Their Triple Choc Brownie Mix is packed with milk-boosting goodness like flaxseed and brewers yeast, without compromising on taste or texture!
