Bring All Your Baby Essentials
Hotels and accommodations are getting better with baby amenities. Still, each family and each baby has their own needs and preferences, so it's best to list out the essentials. Travel essentials for babies include bottles, bibs, diapers, wipes, pacifiers, and much more! After making a list, then we need to find the balance between packing the bare minimum and packing every. single. thing.
Our designers at MATO tackled this head-on and came up with SCROLL POCKETS. Keep everything together and organized in its own separate space!
Travel Checklist
We know there's nothing worse than arriving at the destination, only to realize we forgot to pack ____. At MATO (our parenting brand), we do our best to encourage communication between parents. So we've put together this thorough list to make sure nothing gets left behind! It includes all the travel items to help support family trips of any kind.
