Arielle's Must-Have Baby Essentials For Her New Arrival

Any parent will tell you: babies require a lot of gear. Ahead of her new arrival, Arielle is shopping longtime favorites, including BABYBJÖRN’s Travel Crib Light. The easy-to-transport crib is a safe and cozy space for your little one to sleep, and it's made of an airy mesh fabric for added comfort. Arielle also loves the Bouncer Balance Soft by BABYBJÖRN, a lightweight bouncer that will gently rock your baby.

Arielle is also picking up Doona's genius car seat and stroller, a must-have for any family on the go, as well as a new bathtub from Fisher-Price.

Like big sisters Ruby and Esme, Arielle’s third daughter will have an impeccably stylish wardrobe, whether it’s a rainbow footie by Noomie or a printed set from Bonpoint. Don’t forget a wardrobe necessity for mom too: Arielle loves A Pea in the Pod’s Luxe Midi Maternity Dress, which is made of a super comfortable knit fabric. 

Arielle is also shopping for new accessories. Arielle’s favorites include supremely soft cotton swaddles from Aden + Anais and sweet printed swaddles by SwaddleMe. For baby girl’s socks, Arielle picked up this cute set with adorable quotes printed on each sock.

Arielle's baby will have a tech-savvy nursery, with smart products that keep little ones comfortable, connected, and safe. These products include the much-loved Hatch Rest sound machine and nightlight and Nanit’s smart baby monitor, which allows parents to keep an eye on their sleeping babies.

Arielle also picked out new feeding essentials, including the Elvie wearable pump and a bottle sterilizer and dryer from Baby Brezza.  

Arielle's favorite picks for playtime will keep any newborn engaged and excited. This sweet wooden activity gym from Avrsol can help babies develop coordination skills, while this colorful toy allows little ones to refine their motor skills.

A plush, animal-inspired rattle and a set of toys specifically for teething babies both complete Arielle's toy selects. For the baby's playroom, Arielle chose a star-covered area rug to serve as the perfect home base for playtime.
