Why Baby’s First Bath Feels Big (But Doesn’t Have to Be)  Bathing your newborn for the first time feels like a big deal. Honestly, it is. You’re handling a tiny person; they’re slippery when wet, and you're trying to remember a dozen steps while also not panicking. Still, somewhere between the warm water, the scent of baby shampoo, and those sleepy post-bath cuddles, it becomes a beautiful part of your day. Bath time doesn’t need to be complicated. The key is staying calm and having your essentials nearby. With some practice and a few trusted baby products, it can become one of the moments you and your baby enjoy the most, even if it starts out a little messy. Why Bathing Your Baby Builds Confidence  Because doing it yourself just feels better. Plenty of new mums say they’re nervous about that first bath. That’s normal. But doing it yourself, slowly, with your own hands, builds confidence and trust for both of you. Your baby begins to associate your touch, your voice, and the rhythm of your care with safety. There’s something simple but reassuring about creating a calm little ritual. You begin to notice how your baby reacts when the water touches their feet, or how they blink slowly when you rinse their hair. That’s when bath time stops being a chore and starts becoming a memory. Tip for New Parents: It helps to have everything you need right next to you: a soft bath towel, mild baby shampoo, a gentle sponge, and maybe some post-bath lotion.  Space-Saving Tip: Many parents also use foldable tubs with newborn inserts, especially useful when space is limited or you’re bathing your baby alone. How Often Should You Bathe a Newborn? You don’t need to bathe your baby every day, not even close. Two to three times a week is plenty in the early weeks unless something messy happens (which, let’s be honest, it will). What matters more is giving attention to certain areas daily, like the neck folds, underarms, and the diaper zone. Here’s a quick list to keep things simple: Warm water is best. About 37°C, which feels just right to the touch Use a fresh sponge or clean washcloth each time Bath time doesn’t need to stretch, as 5 to 10 minutes is more than enough Always stay within arm’s reach of your baby Bath time tip: Bath sponges & loofahs made especially for newborns are a small detail that makes a big difference. They’re soft, textured just right, and many have fun shapes or gentle colours that keep babies visually engaged without overstimulating them. What’s the Best Time to Bathe a Newborn?  Some babies love baths. Others... not so much. The trick is finding the right time. Usually, the best moment is when your baby is calm, alert, and not too hungry or full. Bathing right after a feed might lead to spit-up, and if they’re too sleepy, it can make them cranky. Evening baths often work well as part of a wind-down routine. That warm water can be soothing and might help your baby sleep better. Just make sure the room is warm, free of drafts, and that everything you’ll need is close by. Dry bath towel, fresh clothes, diaper, lotion, the works. Pro tip: When you don’t have to run around looking for things, you’ll enjoy the bath just as much as your baby does. Step-by-step Bathing Guide for Newborns  Here are some newborn bathing techniques step-by-step:  Set up your space Pick a comfortable, safe place. Some parents prefer the bathroom counter or kitchen sink; others use a dedicated baby tub on the floor. A support insert can help you hold your baby securely with both hands free when needed. Foldable tubs are a favorite for smaller homes or travel. Ease them into the water Support their neck and back with one hand while you slowly lower them in. Talk to them or hum quietly; your voice is familiar and helps them stay calm. If they cry, stay steady. Sometimes it’s just a surprise, not discomfort. Start with the face and work your way down Use a damp cloth to clean the face. No need for soap there. Then move behind the ears, under the chin, along the arms and chest, and down to the legs and feet. Save the diaper area for last. Use just a drop of mild baby shampoo for hair and rinse gently. Worried about water in their eyes? Use a rinse cup or pour gently with your hand. Some parents try soft shower visors to guide water, helpful, but not a must-have. Make it a little fun You don’t need a basket full of toys. One or two lightweight bath toys, like a floating duck or a squishy animal, are enough. They give your baby something to look at or eventually reach for, and that’s all it takes to turn a plain bath into a fun one. Lifting and drying Lift your baby out carefully and wrap them right away in a warm, soft bath towel. Pat, don’t rub to dry the skin. Be sure to check skin folds (neck, thighs, underarms), since moisture can hide there. Apply a gentle lotion if your baby’s skin feels dry, then get them dressed and settled. Bonus Tips for Stress-Free Bath Time  These tips have helped new moms more than you’d think: Keep a small towel on the changing surface to soak up extra water Use a non-slip mat under the tub if it’s placed on a counter Have a spare outfit handy, just in case there’s a surprise Lay out everything in the order you’ll need it post-bath Gentle reminder: Take a deep breath. Your calm helps your baby stay calm, too Conclusion: Turning Everyday Moments Into Memories  Bath time with your newborn doesn’t need to be elaborate. It’s not about doing every step “right.” It’s about being there, hands steady, voice soft, learning each other’s pace. The more you do it, the more it becomes second nature. Even when things go sideways (because babies have their moods), you’ll still be building trust. Some of the most special memories are made in these tiny, everyday moments, lifting your baby from the warm water, wrapping them in a soft towel, watching them blink up at you. At Laadlee, we understand how precious this time is. That’s why we offer carefully chosen baby products. From mild baby shampoo and soft bath towels to gentle bath sponges and engaging bath toys, all made with safety and comfort in mind. Because when you’re caring for your baby, you deserve products that care right back. So take your time, follow your baby’s cues, and let bath time be what it is. A pause, a hug in water, and a memory in the making. FAQs  How do I bathe my baby for the first time? Pick a calm moment, not too close to feeding. Use a baby tub or sink with warm water (about 37°C). Hold your baby securely, and wash gently with a soft sponge or loofah. Start with the face, skip soap there, and move down. Talk or hum to soothe them. Keep it short. 5 to 10 minutes is plenty. How often should I bathe my newborn? You don’t have to do it every day. Two or three baths a week are fine for most newborns, as long as you’re wiping down important areas like the neck, underarms, and diaper region regularly. When’s the right time for a bath? Try when your baby is in a good mood. Usually between feeds. Some parents find evening works best, since the warm water helps their baby relax before bedtime. What should I have ready? It’s easier when everything’s in one place. Grab a towel, baby shampoo, clean clothes, a diaper, and a soft bath sponge or loofah. This way, you’re not reaching or rushing once the bath starts. Summary  Giving your newborn a bath doesn’t have to be stressful. Even if it’s your first time, with some warm water, a soft towel, and a few basics like baby shampoo and a sponge, it can be a calm, enjoyable part of your day. This guide shares simple steps that make the process feel less intimidating. Maybe even something you’ll start to look forward to.  

Introduction to Swaddling  Swaddling has been around for generations, but it’s not just an old-school tradition. It’s a reliable, gentle way to help babies settle into deeper sleep and feel safe during their earliest days. Here’s a closer look at why so many parents still use swaddles, especially for nighttime sleep. Benefits of Swaddling at Night Recreates the Womb and Soothes Fussiness The shift from womb to world is a big one. A swaddle creates that same snug feeling your baby was used to inside. When wrapped gently, babies often feel less overwhelmed, which can lead to fewer tears and less fuss at night. This kind of soft pressure reminds them of being held close, which is often all it takes to help a newborn calm down. Helps Everyone Get a Bit More Sleep When wrapped securely, babies tend to nod off quicker and stay asleep longer. The comfort of a swaddle keeps them from startling awake as easily. That means fewer middle-of-the-night wake-ups for both of you. Swaddling can also support longer stretches of REM sleep. The deep kind that helps with early brain growth. With your baby sleeping more soundly, you’ll have a better chance to rest and recharge too. Keeps the Startle Reflex in Check The Moro reflex (that sudden arm-flailing move babies make) is totally normal, but it’s also a common reason they wake themselves up. A snug swaddle keeps their limbs gently contained, helping them sleep through those little jerks. It may seem simple, but a well-wrapped baby is often a much calmer sleeper. Encourages a Safer Sleep Position Before babies learn to roll, swaddling can help them stay on their backs, exactly where pediatricians recommend they sleep. This is considered the safest position during those early months. As soon as your baby starts showing signs of rolling, it’s time to stop swaddling and look into sleep sacks or wearable blankets instead. Helps with Temperature Control Certain fabrics like muslin, cotton, or bamboo breathe well and keep your baby at a steady temperature through the night. That’s especially useful in warmer places like the UAE, where lightweight options are key. Avoid anything too thick or heavy unless the room is especially chilly. To check if your baby’s warm enough, place your hand on their chest. It should feel comfortably warm. Not sweaty or cool. Swaddling Techniques and Safety  Swaddling isn’t hard, but there’s a right way to do it that keeps your baby safe and comfy. Step-by-Step Swaddle: Lay your blanket down in a diamond shape. Fold the top corner down. Set your baby so their shoulders rest just below that fold. Gently keep one arm tucked and pull that side of the blanket across the chest, tucking it beneath the back. Fold the bottom of the blanket up over the legs. Leave room so hips and knees can move freely. Pull the final side across and secure it under the body. A Quick Safety Checklist Keep it snug around the chest but never tight Make sure the baby’s face stays uncovered Let legs and hips move freely to prevent pressure on joints Always place the baby on their back in the baby bassinet when swaddled Stop swaddling once rolling becomes part of their movement Swaddling works best when paired with a consistent nighttime routine and a sleep-safe setup.

Types of Swaddles: Choosing the Right One  You don’t need a hundred swaddles, just one or two that match your baby’s needs (and your climate). Here's a quick look at the main styles you’ll come across: Muslin Swaddles Light and breathable, these are a go-to for warmer nights or tropical climates. They’re great for layering too, just wrap your baby in one or use it as a light cover during naps. Bamboo Swaddles These feel especially soft against delicate skin and have a nice stretch that makes wrapping easier. They tend to stay cool even in humid weather, which makes them ideal for places like the UAE. Velcro Swaddles If you're new to this whole swaddling thing, Velcro is a lifesaver. Just wrap, press, and done. They’re secure, quick, and perfect for late-night changes when you don’t want to fumble with folds.

It’s a solid pick for new parents still mastering the swaddle fold. Final Word: Swaddle with Confidence  Swaddling is about more than just getting your baby to sleep. It’s a small way to help them feel safe, secure, and close, especially in those first few weeks when everything’s new. Choose a swaddle that fits your baby’s needs and your own comfort level. Light fabrics work well in warm rooms, and simple closures like Velcro can be a lifesaver in the middle of the night. Once rolling starts, you’ll know it’s time to move on. The main thing? You’re learning and adjusting as you go, and that matters more than doing it perfectly. You’re doing a great job. Real Talk: Swaddling FAQs for New Parents  Still have questions about safe swaddling? Here’s what many new parents ask: Is it safe to swaddle my baby at night? Yes, as long as you follow safe sleep guidelines. That means using breathable fabric, keeping the swaddle below the shoulders, and always putting your baby on their back. Swaddling is fine for newborns who haven’t started trying to roll. How long should I keep swaddling at night? You’ll want to stop as soon as your baby shows signs of rolling over. Usually somewhere around the 8-week mark. That’s when a transition to a sleep sack or wearable blanket makes sense. What’s the best fabric for swaddling in warm weather? In hot or humid climates, go for muslin, bamboo, or lightweight cotton. These fabrics help keep your baby comfortable without trapping too much heat. Can swaddling help my baby sleep better? It can, especially in those first few weeks. Many babies feel calmer and sleep longer when wrapped snugly. Swaddling helps prevent the startle reflex from waking them up too early in a sleep cycle. Summary  Swaddling helps newborns feel safe, reduces fussiness, and promotes better sleep, especially at night. It mimics the womb, controls the startle reflex, and encourages safe back-sleeping. Breathable fabrics like muslin, bamboo, and cotton regulate temperature. Swaddle safely, stop once baby starts rolling, and choose a wrap that matches your baby’s needs and your routine.  

Becoming a mom is a journey filled with love, learning, and a lot of firsts. Among the many new things you’ll get familiar with, diapering is high on the list. Choosing between cloth and disposable or understanding what to pack in your diaper bag, making informed choices can make life smoother for both you and your baby.  At Laadlee, we know that new moms often feel overwhelmed by the range of baby products available. That’s why we’ve put together this easy-to-understand guide on the types of baby diapers and diaper essentials every mom should know. Let’s walk through it together. Types of Diapers  When it comes to diapering your little one, you’ll quickly find there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. Different situations, baby needs, and even seasons may influence your choice. Here are the main types of baby diapers: 1. Disposable Diapers These are the most commonly used diapers, and with good reason. They are super convenient, highly absorbent, and perfect for busy parents. Our disposable diapers  like Kim & Kimmy - New Born Little Clouds Diapers, Kim & Kimmy - New Born Funny Icons Diapers come with leak-proof designs and wetness indicators, making diaper changes a little less of a guessing game. Benefits: Easy to use, no laundry involved, and ideal for travel or overnight use. 2. Cloth Diapers Cloth diapers have come a long way from the old-school versions our mothers used. Modern cloth diapers are adjustable, washable, and available in a range of adorable designs. They’re also more breathable, which helps reduce the risk of diaper rash.  Benefits: Eco-friendly, cost-effective over the long-term, reusable. 3. Taped Diapers These are traditional disposable diapers that are secured with adhesive tapes on either side. Taped diapers like Pampers Premium Care Newborn Taped Diapers are particularly useful for newborns who mostly lie down and don’t move much.  Benefits: Adjustable fit, suitable for newborns, and easy to put on when the baby is lying down. 4. Reusable Diapers Reusable diapers are usually made from cloth or hybrid materials and are designed to be washed and worn again. These come in pocket, fitted, or all-in-one styles. Some even allow you to change the liner while reusing the outer shell.   Benefits: Budget-friendly, better for the environment, less chemical exposure. 5. Swim Diapers Planning a pool day? Regular diapers won’t cut it. Try our collection of Swim diapers like Zoocchini Baby Swim Diaper & Sun Hat Set , Polka Tots Reusable Swim Diaper, which are specially designed to contain messes while your baby splashes around. They don’t swell in water like normal diapers do. Benefits: Perfect for water play, reusable and disposable options available. Diapering Essentials Every Mom Should Stock Diapers aren’t the only thing you’ll need to keep your baby clean and comfortable. Here’s a checklist of diapering essentials that every new mom should have in her diaper bag and changing area. 1. Diaper Rash Creams A good diaper rash cream is a must-have in your baby care kit. Whether you’re using cloth or disposable diapers, some level of moisture exposure is inevitable. Diaper rash creams like  Sebamed Baby Diaper Rash Cream, Aleva Naturals Soothing Diaper Cream act as a barrier and soothe irritated skin. Tip: Look for creams with zinc oxide or petroleum jelly, both effective in protecting sensitive skin. 2. Baby Wipes Gentle, fragrance-free baby wipes like Terra Baby Wipes NZ Water, Sebamed Baby Wet Wipes With Aloe Vera, are essential for quick clean-ups. From diaper changes to messy hands and faces, they’re incredibly handy.  Tip: If your baby has sensitive skin, opt for hypoallergenic or water-based baby wipes. 3. Diaper Bag A well-stocked diaper bag is your best friend when you’re out and about. Make sure it’s spacious, has multiple compartments, and includes insulated sections if you’re carrying bottles. Check out our website for diaper bags, like Beaba Paris Diaper Bag, Childhome Mommy Bag, which combine functionality with style. What to pack: Diapers (at least 3–4) Baby wipes Diaper rash cream Changing mat like Moon Organic Changing Mat, Doomoo Cosy Care Changing Mat Extra sets of clothes like Tickle Camelot Organic Baby Muslin Shorts and Tee Set, Jelliene All Over Printed Dress.

You can check our full newborn essentials checklist blog to see what else you might need in your baby’s first few months. Benefits of Diapering Done Right  We don’t often think of diapering as a skill, but done right, it makes life more comfortable for your baby and easier for you. Here are a few benefits: Comfort: The right diaper ensures your baby stays dry and happy, which can improve sleep and mood. Skin health: Clean and timely diaper changes, along with baby wipes and diaper rash creams, help prevent irritation and infections. Convenience: A stocked diaper bag means fewer emergencies and more peace of mind when you’re on the move. Routine: Regular diaper changes create predictable habits that help babies feel safe and secure. How to Choose the Right Diaper Choosing the best diaper involves considering your lifestyle, budget, and your baby’s needs. Here are some questions to guide you: Is your baby prone to diaper rash? Do you need convenience for travel or long nights? Are you concerned about the environment? Do you want a budget-friendly option long-term? There’s no right or wrong answer. Just what works best for you and your baby. Many moms find that a mix of diaper types fits their needs best. For example, you might use disposable diapers for night and outings, and cloth or reusable diapers at home. Tips for New Moms Change frequently: Wet or soiled diapers should be changed promptly to prevent rashes. Watch for fit: A snug but comfortable fit ensures fewer leaks. Be prepared: Keep backup diapers, wipes, and a change of clothes handy wherever you go. Keep it clean: Wash hands before and after every diaper change. Clean your diaper changing area regularly. Conclusion  Diapering might seem like just one small part of motherhood, but it plays a big role in your baby’s comfort and health. With so many types of diapers and diapering essentials available, understanding your options helps you feel more confident and prepared.

Few moments feel as special as seeing your baby take their first splash in water. The gentle kicks, the little giggles, and those curious eyes—they create memories you'll hold onto forever. Parents should take time to learn and prepare before their little ones dive into something new. Safety, fun, and making each experience memorable should always come first. At Laadlee, we want to make every step of your parenting adventure joyful. From selecting the softest baby outfits to preparing for that exciting first swim, we’re here to offer support and care. When Should Babies Begin Swimming? Most paediatricians say babies can start swimming at six months. Before then, their bodies are still building up defences, so public pools should be avoided. You can, however, begin helping your baby feel comfortable around water during bath time at home. You can use toys that float, let them splash, or pour water to get them ready for the pool. By the time they are six months old, most babies can hold their heads up better, which makes it safer and easier to enjoy the pool. Always ask your paediatrician if you’re unsure about anything. What You Should Bring for a Baby Pool Day  Getting ready to take a baby somewhere feels like quite the adventure, and heading to the pool is no exception. Here’s a simple checklist of must-haves to pack in your swim bag:  Baby swimwear: Pick swimwear with UV protection and a snug design. Go for options that are simple to put on and take off. Our Zoocchini Baby Swim Set is pool-friendly and designed to be worn alone without the need for a diaper.  Baby diaper: Grab swim diapers made for swimming since they help stop any accidents in the water. Our swim diapers, like Polka Tots Reusable Swim Diaper, are reusable, eco-friendly, and easy to clean, making them practical and sustainable. Towel and extra blanket: Once babies leave the pool, they might feel cold fast. Use a soft towel to dry them and a lightweight blanket to keep them warm. Our Anvi Baby Organic 6 layered Muslin Bath Towel is softer, more comfortable and ultra absorbent vs. standard towels. Baby clothes: Bring a clean outfit for after the swim. Don’t forget to include socks and a hat if you'll be spending time outside. With our products like Jelliene Girls Floral Print Skirt, Ki ET LA Anti UV Screech Baby Shorts, and Zoocchini UPF50+ Baby Sun Hat, we’ve got you covered for the perfect swim day. Snacks and water: Swimming uses up a lot of energy in babies. If your baby eats solids, pack a small snack and water to help them feel content after swimming. Baby or pool toys: Bringing floating toys or bright pool toys can make the water seem less intimidating and more playful. Check out our store for fun and interactive toys like Bestway Volleyball Set, Mondo Diving Fish Ring Toys, Paw Patrol Beach Ball. Sunscreen and hat: If your baby is over six months, go with a sunscreen made for babies. Add a wide-brimmed hat to shield their face from the sun. Our collection of gentle sunscreens like Erbaviva - Baby Sunscreen, and Childs Farm 50+ SPF Sunscreen Spray are perfect for applying to the face and body and offer high SPF protection without use of unwanted chemicals. You could also check out our Zoocchini UPF50+ Baby Sun Hat for ultimate sun protection. Mother Sparsh wipes and basics: Handy items like Mother Sparsh 98% Pure Water Baby Wipes work great to clean up any messes near the pool. Essential Pool Safety Steps for Parents  Keeping your baby safe in the water matters most during their first swim. Following these easy steps makes a big difference: Always stay close by: Even if your baby looks comfortable around water, keep them within reach and watch them at all times. Take it easy at first: Hold your baby close as you enter the shallow part of the pool. Let them get used to the water. Check the pool temperature: Babies can feel cold fast. Aim for a pool water temperature of about 32°C or 89.6°F so it feels warm enough for them. Keep it short to start: Begin with 10 to 15 minutes of swimming and increase the time as your baby feels more at ease. Skip swimming if your baby is sick: Avoid pool time if your baby isn't feeling well, even with just a small cold or rash. Chlorine or changes in temperature might make things worse. Your baby’s well-being matters most. When your little one is happy, you both can relax. Creating a Fun and Cosy Experience A baby’s first swim needs plenty of encouragement and a warm, comfy vibe. Try these tips to keep them smiling the whole time: Talk and sing to them: Your voice calms them. Singing a song they like while moving in the water can make them feel safe. Bring toys they love for the pool: A favourite toy can turn new, strange situations into something friendly and fun. Keep those positive vibes going: Smile big, laugh often, and show excitement in your expressions. Babies pick up on how we feel, so let them see joy. Wrap them up when you're done: After a quick swim, snuggle your little one in a soft towel or blanket. This adds warmth and comfort, helping them connect swimming with good feelings. Fun Water Games to Keep Baby Involved  Babies don't swim laps, but they do enjoy playful moments in the water. Try out these fun activities: Splash fun: Use your hands to splash water and get your baby to try it too. Floating fun with toys: Place floating baby-safe toys in the water and let your baby grab or reach for them. It’s a simple way to help them practise moving their hands. Bubbles game: Blow a few bubbles near the surface of the water to amuse your baby and spark their curiosity. Lead-and-follow: Hold your baby and stroll with them across the shallow area, showing them how others nearby are enjoying the water. Babies grow and discover through play. Even the smallest interaction, like touching water or grabbing a toy, can excite their senses and help them develop. Conclusion  Your baby's first dip in the pool is about more than a cute picture. It's a moment to build trust, bring joy to your little one, and spark their love for swimming. Preparing and focusing on your baby's needs can make this experience both safe and memorable. At Laadlee, we guide you to choose the best baby products and gentle care essentials. Our advice comes from a place of love and firsthand parenting experience. Here's to you and your baby enjoying playful splashes and creating wonderful poolside memories!

As parents, most of us have had those moments. You’re trying to prepare a meal, respond to a work call, or just catch your breath, and handing over a screen feels like the easiest solution to keep your little one busy. It’s quick; it does the trick, and hey, there are educational games, right? But if you’ve ever felt that uneasy twinge after your toddler’s third episode of cartoons or noticed them getting cranky when the screen goes off, you’re not alone. Managing screen time is one of those parenting challenges that doesn’t come with a simple how-to guide. At Laadlee, we understand that modern motherhood comes with modern dilemmas. This post just aims to offer gentle guidance, not guilt. With kindness and a bit of perspective, we’ll help you find a balanced way to navigate screen time for your growing toddler. What Are the Risks of Early Screen Time?  Too much screen exposure at a young age can affect a child’s sleep, attention span, and emotional development. When screens take over playtime, toddlers miss out on exploring their world in real time, which is how they naturally learn and grow. Over time, this can have an impact on: Imagination Social skills Basic communication. Physical activity Sleep time Attention span Growth in Early Years & Toddler Screen Time Limits  Many paediatricians suggest that toddlers between the ages of 2 and 5 shouldn’t have more than one hour of screen time per day. For children under two, it’s better to keep screen time to a minimum and always under adult supervision. These early years are where so much of their cognitive and emotional growth happens, and nothing beats real-world play in supporting that. 1. Set Boundaries & Create a Screen-Free Environment Start small. Set aside certain times of the day when screens are simply not an option, like during meals, naps, or bedtime. Use those moments to introduce baby toys or even tell them a short story. It might feel tricky at first, especially if your child is used to screens, but sticking to the plan helps. Kids thrive on routine. Eventually, they begin to expect screen-free time and find comfort in other fun activities. 2. Screen-Free Zones Try to keep screens out of the bedroom and playroom. These areas should feel cosy, safe, and meant for interaction. Think about soft building blocks, wooden toys, or simple educational games that spark their curiosity and creativity. The right kind of baby products can go a long way in encouraging your little one to engage without reaching for a screen. 3. Promote Positive Habits & Encourage Real-World Interaction Your toddler learns by watching you. Try chatting with them during everyday tasks — folding laundry, prepping meals, or getting dressed. It might feel simple, but those moments are filled with learning. Storybooks are another great screen-free tool. Reading to your toddler every day can boost their vocabulary and help with focus. Plus, it creates bonding time you’ll both look forward to. 4. Creating a Healthy Daily Routine Instead of treating screen time as a reward or fallback, include it as a conscious part of your routine. Keep it short, and surround it with other activities: snack time, outdoor play, naps, or bath time. If you haven’t read it already, our blog on Creating a Sleep Routine has some nice pointers for winding down at night without screens. It’s a helpful reminder that a predictable flow makes a huge difference in how toddlers behave and feel throughout the day. Smart Alternatives: Engaging Your Toddler Without Screens There are plenty of fun and enriching activities that can fill your toddler’s day. Arts & crafts: Hand them crayons, paper, or stickers. Get good quality materials like Crayola Unicorn Style Neon Crayon Melter Tween Craft Kit and Crayola Bright Pop! Cardstock from our website. Building blocks: These baby toys are more than just fun. Our Grimm's Giant Building Blocks, Andreu Toys Battle Building Blocks, and PlanToys Activity Blocks help build problem-solving skills and hand-eye coordination.  Pretend play: Set up a mini grocery store, doctor’s clinic, or a little café with our Beleduc 4 in 1 Mobile Household Center, Beleduc 3in 1 Doctor Station Play Sets, Trixie Wooden Cash Register, and many more from our website. Music and movement: Sing nursery rhymes or dance together with  KidyWolf Kidy Mic Karaoke Microphone, Power Joy Battery Operated Music Keyboard 44keys with Microphone, KidyWolf Kidy Music Lea - Portable Speaker. Toddlers love rhythm. Kitchen time: Let them “help” by stirring with a spoon or sorting fruits and veggies. Our kitchen sets like Polesie Big Kitchen, Trixie Wooden Kitchen are instant hits with the kids. They help children improve their social skills and enhance their creativity. Having the right mix of baby products like soft toys, simple puzzles, and building blocks can make your home a screen-free adventure zone. Conclusion  Screen time is not the enemy — it’s just something we need to manage thoughtfully. Talking things out and providing good substitutes will help you get your toddler through these early years. Oftentimes, a combination of structure, love and a little flexibility is all you require. We all want what’s best for our children, and that doesn’t mean being perfect. It’s a matter of selecting what feels best for your family. When and if you require a gentle nudge or an idea, Laadlee feels like a friend who knows the highs and lows of that journey called parenting. With a little patience, some fun alternatives and a whole lot of heart, we can raise kids who believe that life outside a screen is just as awesome — and maybe even better.  

If you're a new mom, the idea of starting your baby on solid food might feel like yet another big leap into the unknown. You've just got the hang of breastfeeding or bottle-feeding, and now it's time to move into the world of mushy carrots, split porridge, and sticky fingers. Weaning is exciting but also a little intimidating, right? At Laadlee, we know how overwhelming it can be to sort through endless options of baby products while trying to understand what your child really needs. This guide brings together the signs that your baby is ready to wean, what to expect during the process, and most importantly, a checklist of must-have weaning essentials that are both practical and mom-approved. Let’s start by figuring out if your baby is ready for this new adventure. How Do You Know If Your Baby Is Ready to Wean? Most babies show signs of readiness between 5 to 6 months, but it’s not just about age—it’s about readiness. Every child is different, and these signs are often more reliable than the calendar. 1. Sitting Up Without Support One of the first signs to look for is whether your baby can sit upright with minimal support. This helps prevent choking and encourages safe swallowing. If your little one is still slouching or sliding over during mealtime, it might be a bit early. 2. Hand-Eye Coordination Is your baby reaching out for your spoon or trying to grab food from your plate? That’s a green flag. This growing coordination is a great indicator that your baby is ready to try feeding themselves (with a little help from you, of course). 3. Fading Tongue-Thrust Reflex Babies are born with a reflex that automatically pushes food out of their mouths. If that reflex is slowing down and your baby is starting to move food around in their mouth and swallow it, it’s a strong sign they’re ready to try solids. What to Expect During Weaning The weaning stage is full of learning—for your baby and for you. Some meals will be exciting and fun. Others? Not so much. And that’s okay. You might find yourself celebrating a successful spoonful one day and cleaning it off the floor the next. This early stage is more about exploration than nutrition. Remember, breast milk or formula still provides most of your baby’s nutrition during the first year. Want a deeper dive into this topic? Don’t miss our blog, “What to Expect During the Weaning”—a kind and detailed guide to help you prepare emotionally and practically. The Weaning Essentials Checklist When it comes to feeding your baby, a few thoughtful items can make the whole process smoother for both of you. Here's our Laadlee-approved list of weaning essentials that every mom should have: 1. Highchair Investing in a quality highchair can make a big difference. Look for one with good back support, a footrest, and a wide, stable base. A detachable tray and washable seat cover are huge bonuses when you’re cleaning up after the tenth “oops!” of the day. This isn't just about convenience—it helps your baby learn how to eat while sitting upright, safely and comfortably. Check out our MoMi Kala Baby High Chair Green and Maxi-Cosi Nesta Wood High Chair - Natural, which ensure a stable posture for your little ones. 2. Bibs You’ll go through plenty of bibs once your baby starts solids. Food will end up everywhere—trust us. Choose soft cotton bibs like BIBS Bandana Bib,  for daily wear and silicone pocket bibs for mealtimes. They catch spills and save you from changing outfits after every feeding. Keep a few in the diaper bag, too. You never know when snack time might pop up on the go. 3. Sippy Cups Introducing sippy cups around six months helps babies practise drinking on their own. Some babies prefer straw cups; others like soft spouts. Try a few and see what your baby responds to best. Look for ones with handles like our Mushie Silicone Sippy Cup and Trixie Silicone Sippy Cup—they make gripping easier for tiny hands. Even if your baby doesn’t drink much from them at first, the practice will help them learn over time. 4. Baby Wipes These are a weaning-time essential you already know and love. But get ready to double your supply. Baby wipes come in handy for messy faces, sticky fingers, tray spills, and even food-splattered walls (yes, really). Choose fragrance-free wipes that are gentle on the skin, especially since they’ll be used so often during mealtimes. Check out our  Frida Baby - BreatheFrida Baby Vapor Wipes for Nose Chest Wipes, and Uni Baby Family Wipes for quick & easy hygiene. 5. Feeding Spoons and Bowls Soft-tipped feeding spoons are gentle on little gums and perfect for beginner bites. Some even change color if the food is too hot—bonus! Combine them with non-slip bowls that won’t slide around on the highchair tray. Bowls with suction bases are a total game-changer, especially when your baby starts grabbing at everything. Here are some of our favourite sets: Babymoov Silicone Spoons, Pigeon Feeding Set, Babies Basic Feeding Set. Visit our website for more. 6. Food Storage Containers Whether you’re puréeing carrots or storing extra fruit mash, small, airtight containers will become your best friends. Choose BPA-free ones like Melii Glass Food Storage Container, Canpol Babies Food Storage Container 180ml, that are freezer-safe and easy to stack. They make meal prepping easier and help reduce food waste. Tip: Some moms find it helpful to label each container with the date and type of food. Extra Tips to Make Weaning Easier  Take your time – Start with one meal a day and build up gradually. Let them play – Touching and squishing food is how babies learn. Eat together – Babies learn by watching. Try to eat meals together when you can. Offer variety – Introduce different textures, colours, and flavours. Don’t stress about the mess – It's part of the learning process. Remember, you don’t need fancy gadgets or dozens of products. A few essentials, paired with patience and love, are more than enough. Conclusion  Weaning is a big step—not just for your baby, but for you, too. It marks the beginning of more independence, more exploration, and yes, more mess. But it’s also the start of a beautiful journey into shared mealtimes and sweet, sticky smiles. With the right support and a few reliable tools—like a comfortable highchair, easy-to-clean bibs, beginner-friendly sippy cups, and always-handy baby wipes—you can make this transition smoother and even a little fun. At Laadlee, we believe that parenting isn’t about perfection; it’s about presence. We're here to support you with thoughtful baby products designed for real messes, real challenges and real milestones that come with motherhood. Take it one spoonful at a time; you’re doing beautifully.  

Bringing a baby into the world changes everything. It’s a mix of love, new lessons, and so many firsts. While your newborn’s needs become your main focus, taking care of yourself matters just as much. Between endless diaper changes, late-night feedings, and little to no sleep, making time to move your body might seem impossible. That’s why postpartum exercise offers an easy way to ease back in. At Laadlee, we know that every postpartum journey is different. Each mom’s body recovers in its own way, and finding strength and support again begins with careful, simple steps. Whether this is your first baby or you’re welcoming your second or third, this guide will show you how to start exercising after giving birth, what key areas to prioritise, and how to treat your body with care.  Things to Remember About Postpartum Exercise  First things first: Postpartum exercise is not about "bouncing back" or achieving a certain body type. It’s about healing, strengthening, and reconnecting with yourself after an intense physical and emotional experience. The goal is to support your body through recovery while building the stamina you need for motherhood. Some important reminders as you begin: Every postpartum body is different. Rest is just as valuable as movement. Progress may be slow, and that’s okay. You deserve to feel good in your body, not pressured by unrealistic timelines. Managing sore muscles, a weak core, or the ups and downs of sleep deprivation? These feelings are valid. Take each day as it comes, and remember, maternity care includes caring for your mental and emotional well-being too.  When Can You Start Postpartum Workouts?  The answer varies based on your delivery and how you’re healing. Most moms are advised to wait about 6 weeks before resuming physical activity, especially after a C-section or a complicated delivery. That said, there are gentle movements and breathing techniques you can begin within days of giving birth, with your doctor’s approval. If you had a normal vaginal delivery without complications: Gentle walking and deep breathing can start within the first week. Around the 6-week mark, light stretching or yoga may be introduced. If you had a C-section or experienced complications: Allow more healing time. Avoid lifting, stretching, or core-focused exercises until cleared by your OB-GYN. The key here is to listen to your body. If something doesn’t feel right — even if you’re technically “allowed” to do it — give yourself more time. A little patience now can protect you from setbacks later. What to Focus On During Postpartum Exercise  Think of navigating your postpartum journey as a return to alignment. During pregnancy, your body changes drastically — muscles stretch, joints loosen, and your centre of gravity shifts. Rebuilding strength should begin with stability and breath. Here are a few areas to gently strengthen: 1. Core Recovery Your abdominal muscles have expanded to make room for your baby. In many cases, a condition called diastasis recti (separation of abdominal muscles) occurs. Begin with core breathing, pelvic tilts, and transverse abdominal activation before any crunches or planks. 2. Posture Support Hunching over during breastfeeding or rocking your baby can cause back and shoulder pain. Try light stretches that open the chest, relax the shoulders, and lengthen the spine. 3. Gentle Cardio Once your energy returns, light cardio like walking or slow dancing with your baby can lift your mood, improve circulation, and help manage stress. 4. Mind-Body Connection Simple routines like yoga or mindful breathing can ease anxiety and centre you. These are just as beneficial as more active workouts, especially during emotional days. Pelvic Floor Exercises  Among the most vital maternity recovery tips is rebuilding pelvic floor strength. These muscles support your bladder, uterus, and bowels — and they go through a lot during pregnancy and delivery. How to Start: Begin with Kegel exercises: Contract the muscles used to stop the flow of urine, hold for 5 seconds, and release. Do this gently, 10 times in a row, 2-3 times a day. Pelvic floor exercises help with: Preventing urinary incontinence Improving sexual health Supporting core stability Boosting postpartum recovery You can do them while feeding your baby, resting in bed, or even holding your little one close in a blanket wrap. They’re small moves, but they make a big difference. Exercises to Avoid in Early Postpartum  In the early months, your body is still healing internally. Some activities can be harmful if done too soon, such as: Sit-ups, crunches, or planks: These can strain abdominal separation. High-impact cardio: Running, jumping, or fast-paced routines may affect joints and pelvic floor stability. Heavy lifting: Including weights or even lifting heavy household items. Instead, take a gentle approach. Think short walks, stretching, and restorative movements. Save the high-intensity workouts for when your body feels stronger and your medical provider gives you the green light.  You Deserve Patience, Not Pressure   Many moms feel the pressure to “get back in shape” or return to pre-pregnancy routines quickly. But here’s something every mom needs to hear: You’re doing enough. You are enough. Your body has carried life, birthed a human, and is now nourishing a tiny soul — that’s a full-time job. Movement, when it comes, should feel like self-love — not punishment or pressure. We encourage mothers to lean into a rhythm that honours their energy. Sometimes that looks like a morning walk. Other days it’s just stretching while your baby naps. And on some days, it’s cuddling under a blanket and resting — and that counts too.  Conclusion Starting postpartum exercise doesn’t have to be rushed. Think of it as a slow and steady process. Whether you stretch, walk, breathe, or just take a moment to reconnect with your body, know that you’re recovering, growing, and achieving something remarkable. Don’t focus on fitness when you think about exercise. It’s also about being able to lift and hold your baby, carry bags without discomfort, rest better at night, and find moments of joy even when you're tired. At Laadlee, we’re there alongside you every step of the way. From late nights without sleep to your little one’s first steps and all the moments in between, we’ll be here to support you throughout your postpartum experience.  

Welcoming a baby into your family fills life with joy, but also with a lot of decisions. Parents often find themselves researching everything from feeding bottles to cribs to diapers. A common question that comes up is this: When should you start using a pram or baby stroller? Laadlee knows that each baby is unique and parents want the very best for them. We aim to guide you with advice you can trust so that you feel ready as your little one begins to explore their surroundings. Let’s work out the best age and the right moment to start using a pram or stroller. We’ll share tips to keep your baby safe, happy, and cosy. What’s the Difference Between a Baby Stroller and a Pram?  Before diving into when to use one, it helps to understand the difference between a stroller and a pram because many parents use these terms interchangeably, but they actually serve different purposes. Pram: A pram is designed for newborns and younger infants who can’t sit up on their own yet. It offers a flat, cosy surface for lying down, mimicking the position of a crib. Prams are ideal for long walks with babies in their early months. Stroller: A stroller, on the other hand, is typically meant for babies who can sit upright with support. It offers a seat where the baby can be strapped in and enjoy their surroundings while staying snug and safe. As your baby grows, you’ll likely transition from a pram to a baby stroller or even use a hybrid product that offers both features. Choosing between the two depends on your baby’s age, developmental stage, and lifestyle needs. When to Start Using a Pram  A pram is suitable from birth until around 6 months of age. During these first few months, your baby’s neck muscles are still developing, and they need full head and back support. A pram allows them to lie flat on their back—a position that doctors recommend for healthy spinal growth and safe breathing.  Here’s how to tell your baby is ready for a pram: They are under 6 months of age They cannot sit upright on their own You need a secure, lie-flat surface for daily strolls or outings Many new moms find prams especially helpful for soothing fussy babies. The gentle motion during a walk often helps babies fall asleep and relax. Transitioning to a Stroller  You can start using a baby stroller once your little one can sit up with support, usually around 6 to 9 months. By this time, their neck and core muscles are stronger, and they enjoy sitting up to look around.  Some strollers come with adjustable recline options, making them perfect for this in-between stage. Look for a stroller with: Padded support A five-point safety harness Adjustable seating positions (recline, upright, and napping) As your child grows more active and curious, the stroller becomes a fun way for them to explore the world around them while staying safely by your side. Safety Checklist Before Use  Before you take off with a stroller or a pram, focus on safety. Here’s a quick rundown for parents to use before heading out: Check the harness – Secure your baby with the harness. A five-point harness works best for strollers. Test the brakes – Make sure the wheel locks hold and prevent rolling. Adjust the seat angle – For newborns or younger infants, confirm the seat reclines flat or gives the right back support. Inspect for small parts – Look out for any loose screws, buttons, or anything that could be a choking risk. Ensure shade and airflow – Use a stroller with a canopy and fabric that lets air through to shield your baby from the sun and wind. Storage – Do not overload the handles or hang bags that might make the stroller tip over. Use the basket underneath to store your items instead. Checking everything before heading out can stop accidents and let you enjoy your walk with your little one without worries.

When you think about caring for a baby, you probably don't think about hydration. You have feeding, diapering, and sleeping schedules to keep track of, so it's easy to forget just how important it is for your little one to get fluids in. However, keeping your baby hydrated is just as important as feeding your baby and making sure they are getting enough sleep! Whatever feeding method you choose, whether you are looking at breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, or introducing solids, you can help your baby grow comfortably by knowing how to monitor their fluid intake. Let's take a step back and take a look at all the ways we can make up for hydration, one sip at a time! Why Keeping Your Baby Hydrated is Important  Babies lose water faster than adults because their bodies are made up of more water. That means they’re more likely to get dehydrated quickly, especially during warm weather, teething, or illness. Signs of dehydration can sneak up quietly. You might notice fewer wet diapers, dry lips, a sunken soft spot on their head, or even unusual fussiness. Staying aware of these changes can help you act early and avoid complications. Good hydration keeps things like digestion, temperature control, and nutrient absorption running smoothly. It’s one of those small daily things that has a big impact on how your baby feels and functions. How Much Water Does Your Baby Need?  This depends largely on age, climate, and what your baby is eating or drinking. Here’s a quick look at general hydration needs: Newborns (0–6 months): Breast milk or formula is enough. Extra water isn’t needed and could even be harmful at this stage. Infants (6–12 months): A few ounces of water a day—about 2 to 4 ounces—is usually sufficient, alongside breast milk or formula. Toddlers (12+ months): Toddlers need more fluids as they become active. Around 1 litre (or about 4 cups) of total fluids each day is a good benchmark, which includes water, milk, and other suitable drinks. If you’re breastfeeding, make sure you're also drinking enough yourself. Breast milk is over 87% water, and your hydration plays a role in how much milk your baby gets. Best Hydration Practices for Different Stages  For Newborns (0–6 Months) At this stage, all hydration should come from breast milk or infant formula. There’s no need to offer additional water unless your doctor recommends it. Giving plain water too early can fill up tiny tummies and interfere with nutrient absorption. Breastfed babies tend to feed more often in hot weather, as their body naturally adjusts to provide more fluid. You don’t need to supplement —just follow your baby’s cues. For Infants (6–12 Months) This is when you can begin offering small amounts of water, especially with meals. Many parents use sippy cups to help babies practise drinking independently. Look for cups that are easy to grip, soft on the gums, and spillproof. Here’s what can help: Offer sips of water during and after meals. Stick to water or milk—avoid fruit juices or sugary drinks. Make the transition smoother by using feeding bottles and sippy cups that your baby finds familiar and comfortable. Laadlee’s range of baby products includes feeding solutions that are safe, gentle, and designed for tiny hands. For Toddlers (12+ Months) As toddlers become more active, they’ll need more fluids throughout the day. Encourage regular drinking, especially after play, during meals, or when it’s hot outside. Helpful tips: Keep water easily accessible. Make hydration fun by letting your child choose their favourite sippy cup. Offer fruits with high water content—like melons, oranges, or strawberries—as snacks. This is also a good time to start building lifelong habits. If drinking water becomes a normal part of their day, you’re laying the foundation for healthy routines early on.

Bonus Baby Hydration Tips  Here are a few more tips to help keep your baby hydrated: Don't wait until they show signs of thirst. If your baby is thirsty, they may already be slightly dehydrated. Offer water-rich foods. Once solids are introduced, soft fruits and vegetables are great alternative sources of hydration. Be mindful of hot days. Offer more water on hotter days. Model behaviour. Drink water in front of your child – if you do, they are more likely to do it too. Staying hydrated doesn't have to feel like a chore. With a little inventiveness and by utilising your routines, it can be an effortless and natural part of your day. Conclusion  Being a mom is about balancing responsibilities; hydration is a subtle hero in the everyday care of your child. Starting with feeding bottles in infancy to easy-to-hold sippy cups for your rambunctious toddler, the practice of hydration is another step in creating a healthier and happier baby.  Laadlee believes in the parental journey, and we are here to help make your life easy, provide support, and help you to grow a happy, healthy baby.
