From amazing pushchairs and cool leopard-print baby carriers to traditional Moses baskets and the softest swaddles, we’ve got you covered with this selection of essentials that will take you from home to out-and-about with your new addition.
On The Go
Nuna
Perfect for urban life and busy families, Nuna’s car seats are well worth checking out. Their Norr car seat takes little ones from birth to age four, making it an excellent choice. With a system that easily evolves as your child grows, it allows you to move from rear to forward facing at the correct stage, prioritising comfort and safety. Ultra resilient, top of the line plastics and steel reinforcement make for a heavy duty, secure shell, combined with side impact protection from Nuna’s smart SIP system featuring EPS energy absorbing foam. There is also a seven position recline option and an easy five point harness. A great option for a carseat that offers peace of mind and ease.

Baby Bjorn
There is just something about the BabyBjorn baby bouncer that little ones love. Maybe it’s the excellent design, but as if by magic they are happy to spend time gently bouncing away. Even better, you can attach a toy bar with cute wooden shapes on that they can spin and touch to help develop their hand-eye coordination while safely strapped in. The elegant design will look good in your living room, with light and neutral fabrics and a one-click fold flat button – handy if you want to store it under the sofa or pack in the boot of a car. It’s definitely a bestseller for a reason.
