Diaper bags are the perfect way to carry your baby's essentials for on-the-go changing

What to consider

Messenger, Tote, or Backpack?

Backpacks are sturdy and distribute weight. Totes are stylish and convenient. Messenger bags are useful when you need your hands free.

Comfort

If you plan on wearing your bag for a long time, opt for one with adjustable and/or padded straps

Space

If you have more than one baby or tend to overpack, opt for a bag with many storage compartments

Stroller-hook

If you want to attach your bag to your stroller, choose one with hooks

Changing pad

Changing pads are essential and come with your bag. They can be placed on a public changing table for easy and hygienic diaper changes.

Insulation

If you plan on carrying bottles for long durations, choose a bag with insulation to keep them warm.

Cleaning

Prone to spills and dirty surfaces, diaper bags must be easy to clean. Machine washable bags are easy to wash and bags made of canvas are easy to wipe-down.

Tips

• Be careful not to attach heavy diaper bags onto strollers, as they can cause the stroller to tip over.
• Designate a 'mommy pocket' to store your items (phone, keys, etc) for convenience.
• Place liquids in plastic or ziplock bags to prevent leaks from inside your bag.
• If you already have a tote or large bag, convert it into a diaper bag by buying purse dividers.
• If you and your partner both plan on using your diaper bag, choose a unisex color and style.
• Pack depending on how long your excursion is. Make sure to bring: at least 5 diapers, 1-2 outfits, bottles, a blanket, a pacifier, and changing essentials (disposable wipes/plastic bag for soiled diaper/changing pad).
• It can be useful to also carry tissues, hand sanitizer, and a spare t-shirt, in case of any mess or accidental spit-ups.
