I like a tidy car and stroller. I also don’t like when kids watch screens in cars. That’s why I love the My Travel Tray. It keeps the children’s snacks, crayons, and toys neatly in the car or stroller without relying on a screen to occupy them. Strollers, booster seats, and car seats have cup […]
I always dye eggs for Easter with the children in my care but this year we made the Peep Chicken Coop as well. The children loved using the sugar cookie panels, Peeps chicks, premade icing, and assorted candies to make this holiday chicken coop. You don’t see all the sugar cookies in our coop because […]
As this photo shows, one of my Nanny Kids loves Perler Beads. She spends hours and hours making beautiful patterns. For children with great fine motor skills Perler Beads are the best boredom buster ever. The girl in my care used the Sunny Days Perler Beads Kit, Perler Beads Flower Madness, and Perler Sunny Days […]
Pacifiers work great to help soothe newborns and infants. But, it’s best to get rid of pacifiers as early as possible. Continued use of pacifiers after babies have teeth can cause an overbite in the child. Dentists recommend kicking the paci habit by the time baby is 12-months-old. That’s why the FridaBaby Paci Weaning System […]
I was having trouble with a little girl waking up too early and whining that I have breakfast ready for her when I arrived to work in the morning –prior to taking my coat off. I needed to find a way to teach the toddler time and when she could come out of bed for […]
I get so annoyed telling some of my Nanny Kids to wash their hands with soap for at least 20 seconds and they keep running water and not using soap! But that has all changed now that a Mom Boss I work for bought hand soap pens. The child I care for who thought washing […]
The state I live in will no longer allow the use of one-time-use plastic or paper bags starting this Spring. Many towns have already transitioned to using reusable bags only. That’s why I bought Reusable Mesh Produce Bags. They are great produce bags I started using when shopping at the grocery store to prepare for […]
Of all the babysitting and nanny jobs I have worked at over the past 28 years I have found the HD Nanit Plus to be my favorite baby monitor. I like that the parents and I can see what is happening in the crib and nursery via the Nanit app on our cell phones. I […]
I love the Mewl Baby Whiteboard. It is such an easy way for new parents and nannies to easily coordinate the baby’s day. The Mewl Baby Whiteboard is reusable and conveniently sticks to the fridge. Track the baby’s feedings, diaper changes, and sleep times. Mothers can also log breastfeeding and pumping sessions. Simply snap a […]
Creative Wednesdays I love Crayola Model Magic. It provides hours of fun as the perfect clay alternative for young sculptors. Its naturally stretchy, porous texture makes it easy for small hands to mold their next masterpiece! Crayola Model Magic doesn’t stick to hands, making it easy to roll out, cut, mold, and clean up. The […]
