The Newborn Essentials That Actually Matter (And the Ones You Can Skip)

The baby product world is overwhelming. Parents often buy dozens of items they’ll never use, while missing the essentials that truly support feeding, soothing, and sleep. The most important newborn tools are simple: a slow-flow bottle system, a few high-quality swaddles (or sleep sacks), a structured baby carrier, soft lighting, and soothing stations that reduce stimulation.

You don’t need gadgets that claim to “fix” your baby. You need tools that support their development—upright feeding, gentle movement, safe sleep basics, and environments that help them feel regulated.

Inside the Digital Product Bundle, I walk you through the essentials that actually matter and the ones you can skip, saving you both money and stress.
