BEFORE buying baby products I’ve always spent hours reading reviews to make sure I was buying the best for the girls. Valco, Oricom and BabyBjorn kept slapping me in the face while I surfed the net. You know, back in the days when I had hours to waste on the internet.

We were fortunate enough to be in a position to buy quality products from the start, the majority of which have lasted the distance – two children and four years. If only I could say the same for me. Looking a little worse for wear these days.

When Li’l Holly turned one this month, I began packing away what have become some of my favourite products. As each product was placed in a box, I thought how nice it would be for others with young children to experience just how fabulous some of those brands are.

So, without further ado, here are some of the Baby Products We’ve Loved.

Valco EVO2 stroller

Valco T3 stroller

WALK into our house and you’ll see Valco dotted throughout – Valco feeding chair, baby rocker and our beloved T3 Plus stroller. What won me over with the T3 Plus is that, while it’s a compact umbrella style stroller that’s easy for me to handle (I’m only little, remember), it’s still extremely sturdy. Ella has even been known to jump into it now at age four. Yes, poor Li’l Holly.

Our zip-in storm cover and zip-in UV mesh have been well used (more the storm cover, with Tassie’s weather) and are easily stored in the underneath basket. I also have easy access to Twitter, with the zip storage pocket at the back holding my smartphone. Throw in a five-position reclining seat for sleep times, 4 wheel suspension for smooth travelling and some easy grip, ergonomically angled handles for mum’s poor arms and you can see why I find this one hard to fault. We’re even taking it to Melbourne with us next month.

Valco T3 stroller

OK, so maybe if it looked a little more like this one

Valco EVO2 stroller

– the Valco EVO2 stroller – then it would be perfect. The EVO2 is the newest model, which comes in two funky designs: Chainz and Arctic.

Valco EVO2 strollerHow nice is Chainz? It features a no-pinch-hinge to save pinching fingers when it’s being folded, along with lockable swivel wheels, adjustable footrest and compact fold with carry handle. And guess what? You could win the NEW EVO2 MODEL.

Favourite part: It’s easy to assemble and pack away, which means more reasons to go shopping. Hmmm, slightly dangerous. EVO2 is valued at: $199.

Oricom Secure610 Premium Digital Baby Monitor

I confess, we bought a different brand of baby monitor when Ella was a bub and soon regretted it. There was static noise, interference and the antennae started to break. So when Li’l Holly came along we decided to upgrade. After hours of research, the end result was our much-loved Oricom S500.

Oricom Secure500 Digital Baby MonitorNot only does it offer crystal clear sound, but every night Holly drifts off to the sound of lullabies that play through the base and handset. The handset also features a torch – perfect for our night feeds and displays the room temperature – it even has an alarm sound and/or light when it’s too cool or hot. Then there’s the parent talk back system: “Go back to sleep, Holly’’ and charger. I might add that fully charged it lasts for hours and has a pretty extensive range.

Oricom S500 baby monitor

This is one smart little unit and is still being heavily used in our house – and probably will be for a while. The latest Oricom SC610 monitor has many of the same features. In addition, it projects soothing starry night images onto the nursery ceiling. Oh, I want one of those.  It also has 19 classical tunes, lullabies and nature sounds and vibration alert with alarm function for feeds. And guess what? Yes, the winner will get the new Oricom SC61 model.

Oricom SC610 with projection

Favourite part: Being able to grab the remote in the middle of the night and turn the lullabies back on if Li’l Holly stirs without having to get out of bed. Lazy? Yes! Oricom Secure610 Premium Digital Baby Monitor is valued at $199.

You can find more about Oricom at www.oricom.com.au and buy direct from the site. There are some exciting giveaways coming up on the Oricom Facebook page so don’t forget to like them.

BabyBjorn baby carrier Miracle

BabyBjorn baby carrier

The BabyBjorn carrier was our saviour for both girls. With Princess Ella (pictured above), it was the one thing that allowed us to settle her when she was battling colic in those early months. I’d do a couple of laps of the house and she’d be out to it. It was the upright position and being close to me that were the keys.

With Li’l Holly, the BabyBjorn saved my back. She is twice the size of her sister at the same age, so popping her into our beloved BabyBjorn made carrying her so much easier. And I’ve mentioned before about using it during arsenic/witching/feral hour.

What I love about BabyBjorn is how it’s ergonomically designed for parents and children, it has good head and neck support, it allows the change from inward facing to outward as baby gets older and it has plenty of cushioning for support. I was also able to unlatch the front and place the girls straight into their beds without waking them.

BabyBjorn baby carrier miracle

The latest version, the BabyBjorn baby carrier Miracle, is designed to be used from newborn to 15 months thanks to consulting leading peadiatricians. There’s even an innovative size adjustment buckle on the inside of the carrier to make it larger as baby grows.

Favourite part: Hubby and I are worlds apart when it comes to our shape and size (see photo above for proof), so easily being able to adjust it was essential for us. The new BABYBJORN baby carrier Miracle is valued at $199.95.

You can learn more about the latest BabyBjorn carrier www.babybjorn.com.au. BabyBjorn has an active Facebook page so make sure you add yourself to their page.

  1. Alison L says:

    My favourite product of all is the Huggies Nappy Mats! There are thousands of baby things I love but these mats are an absolute life saver! Highly recommend them to anyone!
    They don’t leak… They are super absorbent and they have saved me hours of cleaning time!!

  2. Alison L says:

    Have shared on Facebook and tagged you 🙂

  3. Elisha says:

    Ohhh I would love these things ! I have a Valco Pram – and I LOVE IT, but now Emily is a lil bigger i could upgrade to the above stroller quiet happily ! My Valco runabout is awesome, it came with a bassinet part on a stand, that i never used with the pram at all – BUT Emily slept in it for the first 3 months ! haha.. I have to say my fav thing though is my Angelcare sound and Movement monitor … Its a sound monitor but also lets you know with a very loud noise if baby stops breathing ! It have given me so much peace of mind over the last 3 years, through the twins and now Emily… Thankfully i have only heard it go off its head when i have removed the baby from the cot and not turned it off ! =/ I would ESPECIALLY like the above monitor so i can just turn the lullabies on and go back to sleep – thats GENIUS ! X Thanks for the chance Kel x

    The favourite in our house is the change table mats my mother-in-law sewed for us. They’re soft, absorbent, wash really easily and are brightly coloured. We even still have the one my husb had when he was a baby. They’re just a couple of pieces of cotton fabric sewed together with some polar fleece or soft batting in the middle.

    Am a GFC follower. My favourite baby product would have had to be the wombies. Master Z really took to being held in tight with those and with being swaddled. Even though he is not yet 2, there seems to be heaps of other options for these, so will be checking them out for the next one!

    We also have a Valco stroller which I LOVE, but the Irishman broke one of the brakes on it so while it’s still funky and useful, it’s just not as safe!

    I love my baby rocker/bouncer! We’ve had a few styles and brands, but they are all pretty good – as long as they keep rocking or bouncing the baby!
    I loved being able to move it around the house wherever I was so that my little girl could sleep, play or chill out while I chatted to her and hung the washing on the line.

  45. Alyce says:

    Ooh, we’re in the market for a stroller now, and that Chains design does look snazzy! Oh, and of course it looks/sounds like a good stroller too 😉 We love our Valco Rebel Q pram, but with 2 children and the baby now outgrown lying down all the time, it’s time to upgrade to something easier to handle with a toddler walking and pushing baby one-handed!
    But we’re also highly in love with our Fisher-Price Jumperoo. Our babies have jumped in it for months and months and it’s still in perfect condition!

  52. Charlotte Frances says:

    My favourite baby product is a Baltic Amber Teething Necklace- believe it or not it works! From 3 months old bubs wears it all the time (except for baths and sleeping) and apparently the natural analgesics rub off onto the skin and limit the impact of teething.

    I know it works, I’ve bought 2 off ebay (for $20 for both including postage from Lituania!) and put it on my 17 month old daughter and I wish I knew about these before! I have a 4 year old who had so much trouble and I honestly thought she was dying with temperatures, rashes and night terrors from teething! I need to wait for a few more weeks for newborn bubs to wear hers and I trully hope they never go through what Miss 4 went through…

    Even little boys look cute with these and they are slowly taking the world by storm. They are a fashion statement and save so much cash on the bonjella and pandol I no longer need to buy- win win!

    These prizes would so suit me to a tee! The pram looks so cool, we don’t have a baby monitor and my baby carrier looks so threadbare after my first 2 kids!

    Thanks for the opportunity and I hope these prizes make their way to a loving home even if that home is not my home!

    Kel, this is a very generous and fantastic giveaway. The fact that YOU are giving it away with such recommendations, from both you & The Bloke, is testament to your care, love and dedication to babies, safety and family life.
    My favourite baby product is:
    GRANDCHILDREN.
    I totally love my grandchildren with my heart, soul and whatever else it takes. Grandchildren bring me and my husband a newer perspective on family, and what it means to raise children…who then go on to have their own children.
    This is one entry.
    These products, should I be lucky enough to win, will be for the Grandchild-to-be who has surprised our 40 yo daughter, and her fiancé by appearing…she is now 14 weeks along, and has Miss 15. Miss 12. Master 10. NO baby stuff anywhere.

  64. Caz says:

    I’m going to enter this one for my girl friend who is expecting in May. (Because I no longer have any use for baby products :O) It’s a close call between the dummy and the baby sling.

  65. Meegan says:

    It took us three goes at this whole baby thing to purchase a Fisher Price jumperoo. Seriously could have used one for the other two when they were babies as well as Number 3!!
    Speaking of Number 3, the Valco would be a verey welcome addition at the Harvey Circus!!

  66. Meegan says:

    Have shared on Facebook 🙂

  67. Melissa Okimoto says:

    Its called Itzbeen, it helps keep track of when the baby was last fed, changed and slept. It helped me also keep track of which side she id due to feed on next. Perfect for all those sleepless nights.

  68. I would have to say my Jazz Sling.
    It was fantastic when The Princess was little up until she was nearly 3. And it would fold up so nice and small in my bag when I wasnt using it.

  69. Sonya says:

    I love the Baby Kick’nPlay (I think that’s what it’s called) – it’s one of those bouncer seats but it has a vibrate feature which is fantastic for getting your baby to sleep. We found it invaluable for our first child and once our newborn is a smidge oldee we’ll be using it with him too.

  70. Mrs S says:

    My must have baby product was the baby bjorn, it was so much easier getting out and about with it than dragging our bulky stroller everywhere when our 3yo son was a newborn, looking forward to using again in the new year!

    Hi Kel,

    How do you find such great giveaways? The pram looks amazing, and the babybjorn would be ideal. We have had fussy babies when they were little (oh maybe they never outgrew that stage?!) and the babybjorn would have been ideal.
    Its funny how good quality baby products last the distance. We sure have gone through our fair share of baby products over the years..with five boys nothing last for very long!!

    Great giveaway..

    My favourite baby product is my Mam anti-colic bottles. They are brilliant. They are easy to clean and sterilise. You can do them one at a time or all you have in the microwave to sterilise them. My baby is 8 months old and has used them from day one and has had no problem with wind when feeding. I have tried to use other bottles but he has not taken to them at all.

    We have an ancient.. and I mean ancient as in coming up to 8 years old, Valco twin stroller and it is awesome! At the time we bought it. it was the only option of side by side stroller that folded small enough to fit in our boot so we didn’t shop around, but it has been awesome. It was used continuously with our girls then off and of when number 3 was born, it’s also been leant out to several friends, taken flights all round the country and even across to the UK. We love it.

    I loved the lullabies on the oricom mobitor too but ours has sadly broken and we are expecting number 3.. The bath seat was invaluable!

  143. Farah Puteh says:

    My favorite product would be the baby sleeping bag, I adore the person who invented this product because I don’t have to wake up in the middle of the night worrying whether the blanket has gone on top of bub’s face or not. It’s a stress relief!

  144. Laureny says:

    I’m loving my Strider Plus with extra toddler seat, it’s been so handy just being able to pop the little one in her capsule straight on. P.S – how cute are you, so tiny next to your hubby!

    We have a well loved and nearly worn out Valco Urban Ultralite. great stroller! and i loved it becuase it was the lightest on the market and folded flat was so easy to push around and lug in and out of the car. I’d love a new Valco 🙂

    My BabyBjorn was my saviour, setting one whilst my hands were free to tend to another. Loved it!!!

    i love my valco matrix Gt Pram. It is awesome. Has a good height in the back for my child as she is tall and other prams the back height is really short.

  159. Erika says:

    a fantastic product i didn’t discover til having my second bub – the ‘sounds of nature sleep sheep’. lovely plush sheep which plays ocean, rain or stream sounds, with a timer and volume. when bub gets older, you can remove the music box and it’s a lovely cuddle toy. works a treat for getting newborn to sleep!

  160. Oh Kel! I think hubby would have to pick me up off the floor if we won even one of these prizes, an extra awesome Valco Stroller would be just amazing, that sun hood would be perfect for our fair skinned little one. Our favourite product at the moment is the Lullabub Cot Rockers, these have been life saver and I would recommend them to any parent!

    Oh my gosh my favourite baby product….. wow so so many of them…. let me think for a second, or two…………………….
    Hmmmm okay my favourite baby product would have to be, those mesh feeding bags! they are great for the first time mum who is worried about their baby choking on finger food!

    Lots of favourite things out there and this is just one of them 🙂

  172. jo says:

    The Oricom baby monitor always gives me peace of mind.

  173. Kyla says:

    I have loads of favourite products but one of my all time favourites is the ErgoCocoon (or as my mum calls it – the baby straight jacket).

    Once D started breaking out of his wraps I did a lot of research about our options and untlimately switched to this. I loved how it would stop him from startling himself awake but still allowed him to move his hands and legs to where he wanted them to be, half the time he would break out of the wrap just to readjust his arms and then would startle himself awake as they were no longer contained so the ErgoCocoon was amazing for us.

  175. Alison says:

    The Oricom monitor’s are totally a sanity saver. Ours has the talkback feature which was really handy during a particuarly difficult phase as I could give reassurance without having to get out of bed! The Safe T Sleep sleep wrap is another favourite, it really made a huge difference in solving our sleep problems.

  176. Sandra D says:

    A Baby Rocker/bouncer – saved my sanity. My son refused to sleep during the day and carried on if I dared to lay him down (because he thought I was trying to get him to go to sleep). He loved the bouncer and so did I !

  177. Kakka says:

    Grandma here too, but the best ever from my youngest grandchild was the Baby Bjorn – my hubby rocked wearing his littlest princess in her Baby Bjorn, when we used to visit them all the way on the other side of Australia. What a fantastic invention wish I had one way back when my kids were little. I know someone who would love one now and what a great gift for me to give them.

  178. Belinda says:

    Would love to use your newest addition stroller as we will soon be able to introduce our newest addition to the start of our family together!! I have pushed my neices and nephews around in their valco strollers but fear we may need to limit ourselves on what we can afford, so winning this prize would ensure the comfort and safety of our child too. xx

  179. Michelle R says:

    My favourite item was the activity center. My daughter loved it! and would easily sit and play while I cooked dinner or cleaned.

    Got to see the Valco EVO2 stroller today and I’m in LOVE!!! so wish I could get one 🙂

    My favourite baby product is definitely my Ergo. I used to have a baby bjorn but my bub quickly got too heavy for it to be comfortable (97th %ile baby!) and I replaced it with the Ergo. These days, as he is walking around, I’ll wear it like a back pack and only put him in it when he gets too tired (or too dangerous to be left loose!). I can walk for miles with him on my back. What makes it even better is that it matches my Valco latitude 🙂

    BabyBjorn babysitter balance air is an awesome product and is definitely one of my favourites. It’s suitable from newborn and is recommended by paediatricians. It keeps baby supported and allows me to be hands free so that I can get things done (not that I really want to clean the house haha). Best of all the fabric removes really easy and is machine washable (don’t you just hate surface clean only items!!)

  200. Cheyanne Dumbleton says:

    Its such a struggle to say what the best product I have, I am a Valco lover through & through – Although we are outgrowing our Valco Maxtrix pram with the newest addition to the family, hence the requirement for an upgrade. I think maybe a digital thermometer was probably the best investment for our kids, when in 1 second we could tell exactly how hot they are. You have to love the technology we have these days compared to what our parents had, with breathing sensor mats for the cot, cameras to peek on the baby without walking in the room – But nothing can beat not having to wait 5 minutes with a cold thermometre either stuck under your tounge, arm or ……. butt.

And the handling is great. I have even been stopped on the street by other mums admiring the pram . The other item my son loves is the fisher price baby
    papsan swing.

    I had the valco Titan with my older son and loved it, it was lightweight, easy to steer, easy to fold and store, bub was comfortable especially as it reclines down. The stroller Stayed strong and Still looked good. I gave it to a friend when i finished with it and she still uses it. I’ve just had a new baby and yet to get the pram and the evo2 looks so great, I seen a lady in the shops with one and went to valco site to see what is was called, that’s how I found this competition 🙂

We have 3 children so getting out and about is a challenge. I absolutely love my il tutto handbag/nappy bag – it was a really special present and I find it makes life a lot easier – beofre I was laways losing my phone or keys or wallet or sunnies because I was using more of a traditional nappy bag. Highly recommend – the great thing is that I will be able to use it after the babies too so I don’t feel so frivilous. Thanks for the chance. Will also share on facebook. tx
