Eating and entertainment are two things everyone can get behind—visit Dolly Parton’s Stampede, the world’s most visited dinner attraction! From the world-famous horse walk to amazing aerial performances, Dolly Parton’s Stampede ties in the country history of Branson with endless entertainment and good food.
Be sure to bring your Tushbaby carrier along to keep your little one close and comfortable; this handy hipseat offers four carrying positions that can be used while standing or seated, making it easy to interact and feed them at the dinner table. Tushbaby also features five storage pockets for essentials like diapers, wipes, a bottle, and food for baby, so you can leave the diaper bag behind. And when your Tushbaby’s not in use, you can fold it up and wear it like your favorite purse with our stylish Crossbody Straps.
It’s the carrier that does it all. Really.
For our water and fish lovers, check out the Branson Aquarium at the Boardwalk. This busy attraction can sell out, so grab your tickets in advance. Journey through the Waters Tunnel, stop for a selfie in the Jelly Infinity Room, and bond with your little one in a magical new environment with Tushbaby and The Snug. Tushbaby and The Snug provide the ultimate 2-in-1 carrying solution, offering hands-free flexibility with the back-saving *relief* and storage of our award-winning hipseat. Perfect for babies 12-45lbs, you can wear your baby hands-free facing in or out as you find Nemo and visit the Mermaid Palace.
There’s something captivating about butterflies and rainforests; however, it might be a bit farfetched to visit the *actual* rainforest with a baby. Visit the Butterfly Palace and Rainforest Adventure for a relaxing yet thrilling day with your little one. This self-guided adventure allows guests to explore, feed butterflies, and learn about the rainforest. Plus, wristbands are valid for three days, so you can spread out the attractions if you’re feeling overwhelmed or have other activities planned.
The Butterfly Palace & Rainforest Adventure is another great attraction to hit with Tushbaby and The Snug. Sometimes babies want up and down, and sometimes they just want you—and this combo has you covered for both. The Snug has a simple design that can be put on alone, and it can even fold up and fit in Tushbaby’s under-seat pocket when not in use. This means that your carrier can change when your baby’s needs change—from feeding to soothing to sleeping to bonding—while keeping both of you supported through it all.
If you need extra space without the extra weight, check out our stylish belt bag, The Pack. It can be worn crossbody or around the waist to stow personal items when you need a free hand to feed the butterflies, hold the map, snap some photos, or grab something from the gift shop. The Pack comes in a range of luxury fabrics like vegan leather and velvet, and can even hold a full-size water bottle in the holder.
Soak up the sun at Branson’s outdoor water park or explore the theme park at White Water. Prepare yourself for endless attractions, smiling faces, and memories that will last a lifetime. As you prepare for the fun, think about nap time, feeding time, and playtime with your baby on the go. Surprise surprise: Tushbaby can help support all three of these. Stash The Snug in Tushbaby’s under-seat pocket and attach it to the Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing during naptime. When they wake up ready to eat, detach The Snug, stow it away, and lay your baby across the plush seat in the feeding position for breast or bottle feeding support. If you’re breastfeeding, you can even stash a feeding cover in one of Tushbaby’s five storage pockets. Now that your baby has slept and eaten, it’s time for more fun. Carry your little one side-facing, front-facing, or face-to-face as you support them with one arm. With a clear view of your baby, you can enjoy bonding time as you explore White Water.
Keeping your baby and belongings nearby in crowded places offers a sense of security. For smaller belongings, we’d recommend bringing The Pack along, but if you’re in for a big day, pack up the Totebaby! Our sleek vegan leather diaper tote comes stocked with an organizer, super slim fold-up changing pad, extra crossbody strap, and divider pocket—perfectly designed to hold a Tushbaby. If you need a bag for towels, sunscreen, water toys, and extra clothes, Totebaby’s got you covered.
Before hitting the road or the airport with your baby to Branson, here are a few of our fan favorites for traveling with a baby.

]]>When traveling to Indianapolis with a baby, you’ll want to plan ahead. From strategically packing your suitcase to ensuring you have everything you need to survive the busy airport with a baby to planning attractions to fill your time upon arrival, there are many moving parts to consider when traveling with a baby. As we dive into products that will make traveling with a baby easier, let’s adventure through things to do with a baby in Indianapolis.
Sometimes, you just need to let your little one roam free while having peace of mind that they’re in an enclosed and safe space. Cornerstone Lutheran has two locations in Indy and Fishers that offer FREE indoor play areas for you and your baby (or toddler) to enjoy. You can let your baby crawl up into the play space with fun slides, or sit on the floor with them to build something new! If you’ve got a toddler AND a newborn in tow, the Tushbaby and Snug Attachment make it easy to keep baby cozy and comfortable, while keeping your hands free to tend to your older and energetic toddler.
Strolling through the Keystone Fashion Mall can occupy you and your baby during your visit to Indianapolis. While your stroller can come in handy to stash those shopping bags, you’ll probably want to keep your baby close as much as possible. After all, you are on vacation together. Babywearing at the mall is a great way to involve your baby in the thrills of shopping while cuddling and comforting them. The Tushbaby makes it easy to pick your baby up and put them down. It’s also easy to put the Tushbaby on and take it off. The Tushbaby straps on high and tight above the hips with a velcro closure secured by a buckle. For these reasons and more, the Tushbaby is ideal for shopping (or window shopping).
Escape to the Playscape in Indianapolis regardless of the weather—it’s the only place in the museum that’s just for children 5 years and under. The Playscape features an underwater pond habitat, art studio, music studio, and more designed to inspire curiosity while teaching children.
As you prepare for a day at the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, you’ll want to pack the essentials. Tushbaby’s five storage pockets help you do just that, with special compartments for your phone and personal items in addition to under-seat storage for diapers, wipes, snacks, and more. During a long and stimulating day at the museum, your baby will likely want to be picked up and put down often, which is a breeze with Tushbaby’s open-style hipseat design. When you want to go hands-free to interact with your baby and the exhibits, The Snug attachment wrap connects to Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing, with baby facing in or out. Tushbaby can also be used for feeding support, making it the one carrier that really does it all.
Most babies and adults love animals, so visiting the zoo offers entertainment for all. The Indianapolis Zoo is open year-round, and with 64 acres of indoor and outdoor exhibits, you’ll definitely want to bring a baby carrier to the Zoo. The Tushbaby is a versatile hip seat carrier that allows you to carry your baby in four carry positions from birth through toddlerhood: front-facing, side-carry, face-to-face, and feeding. Make animal noises and silly faces up close and personal with your baby as you help them connect the dots and allow them the freedom to see the world from new perspectives.
Time to feed in the wild zoo? Find a bench and switch to the feeding position as you breast or bottle feed with on-the-go support. And when diaper-changing time inevitably follows feeding time, your fold-up changing pad can be stored in one of Tushbaby’s five storage pockets for easy access.
Sometimes, keeping it simple is best with a baby. Consider a visit to a baby-friendly playground in Indianapolis for some quality outdoor time. A baby carrier like the Tushbaby can make the park more enjoyable, especially if your baby is too small to walk just yet. Tushbaby is a hip seat carrier with four carrying positions—side-carry, front-carry, face-to-face, and feeding—that can make exploring the park with your baby a more interactive experience, promoting bonding and physical and emotional development. When nap time sneaks up, pair The Snug attachment wrap with the Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing with babies 12-45lbs. At Tushbaby, we understand life with a baby and design our products to streamline your day, no matter the plans.
Exploring the gardens with your baby is a great opportunity to take in breathtaking sites while teaching them colors, plants, and more. Life might not be so calm with a baby, but the Garfield Park Conservatory can offer a calming escape. Before visiting, check to ensure the garden is open, as it can close due to weather.
Babywearing with Tushbaby is a great way to interact with your baby at the Garfield Park Conservatory as you point out sights and teach them things. Carrying your baby for extended periods without support can put unnecessary strain on your body, but with Tushbaby, you can save your back while giving your baby a more comfortable (and less restrictive) way to be carried. That doesn’t mean the fussing won’t come, though—keep your handy pacifier clean and ready to use nearby with our chic zip-up pouch, The Pod! The Pod can clip onto your Tushbaby, purse, backpack, or diaper bag (the list goes on) for quick access to pacis or petite essentials like credit cards and earbuds.
The Tushbaby hip carrier can make traveling with a baby easier. As we shared above, it’s designed for safety and functionality, and its stylish materials and patterns are a bonus for parents who don’t want to sacrifice their style while babywearing. The Tushbaby is the one carrier that does it all: it offers a feeding position, supports interactive babywearing, converts to a hands-free carrier with The Snug, and lets you pick up or put down your baby without breaking a stride. Designed to evolve with your baby’s changing needs, the Tushbaby is safe for babies 0-3 years of age or up to 45 pounds. Take on Indianapolis with a baby; Tushbaby has your back.

]]>Read on as we highlight some of the top activities to do in DC when visiting with a baby.
Learning American History is something that can start sooner than social studies class. The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History features exhibits like the Entertainment Nation, FOOD, Inventing in America, Music HerStory, and more. All of the exhibits are designed to teach us about the history that has shaped our world today. This DC stop might be better for toddlers, but it’s kid-friendly if you want or need to bring your baby along.
With the museum's many exhibits, it’s smart to prepare for a long day on your feet. An open-style baby carrier with storage, like the Tushbaby hip seat carrier, can come in handy—especially when your toddler wants a break from exploring or if you bring another little one along. Tushbaby is designed for babies 0-3 years of age, with four carry positions and five storage pockets to help you ditch the diaper bag and stroller at home. It velcros and buckles around the waist for quick ons and offs and can be adjusted to share between caregivers. It’s ideal for long days of babywearing, such as when visiting the National Museum of Natural History.
The Tiny Tots puppet show is designed for children 18 months to 4 years old, and is an engaging way to entertain your baby and spark curiosity. The puppet show and theater room are designed for young patrons, so babywearing can make navigating and enjoying the show more comfortable and accessible. Tushbaby’s open-style design makes it easy to sit or stand while babywearing while offering a plush seat for your baby to sit on and interact with you.
Tushbaby features five storage pockets for your personal items and baby essentials like diapers, wipes, a bottle, and snacks. Still, if you’re planning a big day out with different kinds of activities, our sleek Totebaby diaper bag can come in handy. Totebaby comes with removable baby tote features like an organizer, vegan leather fold-up Changing Pad, extra crossbody strap, and divider pocket—perfectly designed to store a Tushbaby and your larger essentials.
There’s something about watching airplanes that makes our imagination run wild—where oh where could they possibly be going? When in DC, visit Gravelly Point Park to get front-row seats to the runway. When watching planes with a baby, you’ll want to keep your hands free to ensure safety—and keep your arms free for extra snuggles if they get scared. The Snug Attachment was designed specifically to connect to the Tushbaby, which allows you to keep baby close and safe while freeing up your hands. On its own, Tushbaby features four carrying positions so your baby doesn’t miss any views—and if they get hungry, the open-style design makes transitioning to the feeding position seamless. Take a seat, grab your nursing cover, and lay your baby across the seat for support. Life on the go with a baby is thrilling, but it doesn’t have to be complicated!
The Smithsonian National Zoo is one of the most popular tourist destinations in DC. With free entry, exotic animals, intriguing exhibits, and the Speedwell Conservation Carousel, the Smithsonian National Zoo is a baby-friendly and family-friendly place to visit. As your baby enjoys a ride on the Speedwell Conservation Carousel, you’ll want to offer them a helping hand to keep them safely on the carousel animal of their choice.
While your baby’s enjoying the ride and your Tushbaby’s not being used for babywearing, fold it up and flaunt it like your favorite purse with our range of Crossbody Straps! These chic little numbers clip onto your Tushbaby’s D-rings to keep your essentials and carrier close with a stylish twist.
That’s right: a pool just for babies. Splish splash as you make memories with your little one that will last a lifetime. Of course, you won’t stay in the pool all day, and regular activities like feeding and changing your baby will still exist. The Tushbaby carrier can be worn comfortably with a swimsuit as it straps high and tight above the waist with a padded waistband—and with the feeding position, it can be used poolside for feeding support. With Tushbaby’s ample storage space, you can stash sunscreen, an extra protective layer for baby, diapers, wipes, and even our slim vegan leather fold-up Changing Pad!
Babywearing can make exploring DC with a baby more enjoyable for both of you. With Tushbaby’s four carrying positions, you can strengthen your bonding time with your baby while allowing them to see the sights and switch up how they want to be carried. If you like going hands-free, The Snug can be attached to transform your Tushbaby into a hands-free baby carrier for babies 12lbs and up—hello, naptime. And when not in use, you can easily store The Snug in your Tushbaby’s under-seat storage pocket.
Traveling with a baby is all about practicality, as you’ll likely be limited in what you can bring, especially if you’re flying. Prioritize practicality (just as we do here at Tushbaby) to choose the must-have items for vacation.

When you arrive at your seat, you can still use the Tushbaby for added support: hold them in the face-to-face position for intimate interaction with your baby or switch to the forward-facing position to watch the game. You can even transition them to the feeding position by laying them across the plush seat.
Visit the first botanical garden in America, the Boston Public Garden. Bond with your baby surrounded by scenic views and sounds as you tour the garden. Since you’ll be walking quite a bit, utilize your Tushbaby’s five storage pockets to pack snacks, wipes, diapers, a bottle, and even an extra layer for baby. If you plan to spend more time in the park or the weather is nice for a picnic, bring our vegan leather Totebaby to pack a blanket and your larger necessities. Totebaby comes fully stocked with removable baby tote items like an organizer, vegan leather changing pad, decorative crossbody strap, and divider pocket—perfectly designed to store a folded Tushbaby.
The Tushbaby hip carrier makes one-on-one time with your baby easier as you carry them with support. Sit your baby on the plush hip seat face-to-face, forward-facing, side-facing, or in the feeding position as you support them with one arm. You can pick them up and put them down with ease if they crave exploration in a safe space of the garden—and if you want to go hands-free, simply attach The Snug to carry them hands-free, facing in or out. Tushbaby is designed for flexibility, as that’s an important part of life with a baby.
In a city filled with history, you won’t have to look hard to learn about Castle Island. Castle Island served as the home to military fortifications for hundreds of years. Soak in the beauty and appreciation for all it has to offer as you bond with your baby by the sea. Strolling the landmark during baby’s naptime can make for an even more peaceful experience. With Tushbaby, you can take advantage of hands-free babywearing for naptime when you pair the Tushbaby and The Snug. The Snug is a first-of-its-kind wrap designed to be used with your Tushbaby so you can carry your little one hands-free—just attach it to your Tushbaby carrier, place your baby on the seat, wrap the straps over your shoulders, then buckle up and go.

]]>Here’s a list of things to do in Maui with a baby and how to prepare for the outing.
Maui is a place for relaxation, even with a baby. With luxurious resorts and remarkable beaches, pack your swimsuits and sunscreen since you’re sure to spend plenty of time near or in the water. Taking a baby to the beach will call for more than your beach towel and tanning lotion—as most things with a baby do. As you trudge through the thick sand with your belongings and baby under the sun, you’ll want some extra support.
The Tushbaby can be worn over your swimsuit or beach attire as you find the perfect spot or play in the waves with your little one. Its padded waistband straps high and tight above the hips, with a plush seat for baby to perch while you support them with one arm. When your baby gets hungry, you can seamlessly transition from the front-facing, side-facing, or face-to-face position to the feeding position with baby laid across the seat. Tushbaby has five roomy pockets and a hideable bottle holder, so it’s perfect for stashing lotion, diapers, wipes, snacks, and even a sunhat to protect your baby.
For other beach necessities like a blanket or towels, bring our vegan leather Totebaby along! When you’re done babywearing, you can fold up your Tushbaby and stow it in your Totebaby diaper bag. Totebaby comes with removable items like our fold-up changing pad, an organizer, and a divider pocket—for your Tushbaby, of course.
Fresh fish and Hawaiian vibes…aloha North Shore. Eating is one of the best things about exploring new places and can be especially fun if your baby is learning to try new foods. Taking baby to a restaurant can be intimidating, but being prepared with the proper tools and tips can make for a seamless meal.
A clunky stroller might be unwelcome in a smaller restaurant, so babywearing will be the best way to keep your baby and belongings close. Tushbaby offers four carry positions that can be used either standing or seated, so you can continue to use your Tushbaby for support at the table. Tushbaby even offers a feeding position, making for quick and comfortable transitions on the go. A pacifier can also come in handy at the restaurant—keep a clean one close in our small zipper pouch, The Pod, which can clip to your Tushbaby, purse, and anywhere else you need it.
The views of Hawaii are even better than the postcards, so when visiting Maui, you’ll want to experience them firsthand. Since intense hikes might not be at the top of your list of things to do with a baby, consider taking a scenic drive instead. Bring a foldable changing pad in the event you need to do a diaper change on the road. You may also have to feed at some point, too. Before feeding or changing your baby, stop in a safe area before wearing your Tushbaby in the feeding position and laying your baby across the seat for support. You can keep your nursing cover folded up in a pocket on the Tushbaby, along with other things like a burp rag or pacifier.
There’s nothing more incredible than a Hawaii sunrise, but waking up that early with your baby might be a stretch. Make a reservation to watch the sunrise over the Haleakala Summit and bring your sleeping baby along. Use the Tushbaby and The Snug for hands-free babywearing, perfect for a sleeping baby. When they’re ready to move those little legs, simply fold The Snug and stash it in the under-seat pocket of the Tushbaby. Now, you can babywear with Tushbaby and utilize our four carrying positions, including the feeding position.
You or your partner may benefit from bringing The Pack along for the adventure and sunrise, too. This stylish belt bag is designed with ample space and convenience for life on the go with a baby, featuring a hidden water bottle holder and smart pockets. The Pack and Tushbaby come in a range of high-quality fabrics and patterns, making it easy to match your personal style to your baby gear.
The Tushbaby is the only baby carrier that does it all: it can go from hipseat to hands-free in a snap, and offers carrying and feeding support that fosters one-on-one time with your baby. For hands-free babywearing, pair The Snug with Tushbaby; it’s a first-of-its-kind wrap designed to be used with your Tushbaby so you can carry hands-free with babies 12-45lbs. It’s the same back-saving *relief* of a hip carrier with the hands-free flexibility of babywearing—the ultimate 2-in-1.
Ready to relax? Tushbaby can help you take a load off.
]]>As one of the leading hands-on science hubs, Discovery Place Museum in Charlotte is at the top of the list for many parents. As your baby explores the museum, you’ll be right by their side; try to keep your hands as free as possible to help your little one as they soak in the experience and learn something new.

The Totebaby is our sleek vegan leather tote that comes fully stocked with a foldable changing pad, crossbody strap, and divider pocket to store a Tushbaby carrier—it’s known as the ultimate bag of tricks for a reason.

Carry your baby in the face-to-face, side-carry, or forward-facing position—and with The Snug attachment wrap, you can carry them hands-free, facing in or out. The Snug clips to the base of the Tushbaby and is worn over the shoulders, and can even be stored in Tushbaby under-seat pocket. It’s the same back-saving *relief* of a hip carrier with the hands-free flexibility of babywearing—the ultimate 2-in-1.
The Southpark Mall West Plaza Play Area is most kids’ favorite stop at the mall. Parents and children can socialize after a hard afternoon of shopping or just peeking in the windows. If you plan to shop, you may want those hands free; as we know, some babies don’t always love the stroller. Wear the Tushbaby with The Snug attachment for hands-free babywearing! Simply attach The Snug to the base of your Tushbaby, wrap the straps over your shoulders, and buckle the sides to carry and cuddle your little one hands-free. Plus, it can fit in the under-seat storage pocket of the Tushbaby. To complete the look, clip on The Pod, our small zippable pouch, to store a clean pacifier or other petite essentials you want easily accessible.
Starting to see all the uses of the Tushbaby? Wait til you own one.
Toys can teach our babies while keeping them entertained. Visit Charlotte's local toy store, stocked with over 10,000 unique items—from educational toys to role-play, animal kingdom, and more, you can explore the toy store while bonding with your baby. Take the Tushbaby along for the adventure with your Totebaby to stash larger essentials, and make your baby the center of attention.
The Tushbaby makes one-on-one time with your baby comfortable and easy, because you can babywear them in the forward-facing, side-carry, and face-to-face positions with built-in lumbar support. When hunger calls, transition seamlessly to the feeding position by laying your baby across the seat—that’s four carrying positions in one carrier! Tushbaby really does it all; from carrying your baby to saving your back, it makes life with a baby easier. If you’re traveling with family, even better—Tushbaby has an adjustable waistband so your loved ones can babywear while you take a break. For more room around the waist, use our Waistband Extender to add an extra 23 inches (70 inches total) to the Tushbaby's waistband.
Connect with the heart of the city as you walk along the Charlotte Rail Trail. Taking in the urban vibes and city sounds and smells while you bond with your baby will make for a memory that will last a lifetime. When exploring the city with a baby, regardless of how safe it is, you’ll want to keep your baby and your things as close as possible. Utilize The Pack, our baby-friendly and stylish belt bag, and Tushbaby for convenient, streamlined storage and traveling with a baby. Strap on the Tushbaby high and tight above your hips, and get ready to walk the Charlotte Rail Trail with your baby.
When nap time rolls around, or you want to go hands-free, retrieve your Snug from the under-seat Tushbaby storage pocket and attach it to the Tushbaby. The Snug is a soft wrap designed to connect to your Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing with babies 12-45lbs, and can be used to carry them facing in or out.
From flying to touring museums, the Tushbaby hip carrier can enhance your travel experience in countless ways. There’s a reason it’s known as the carrier that does it all, from four carrying positions and feeding support to a compatible hands-free attachment (The Snug). Tushbaby is one of the best baby carriers for active parents—with an open-style design, it’s easy to put on and take off, and to help your baby on and off the seat when they want to explore. It features a supportive and foldable design with storage pockets, and comes in a range of stylish colors, patterns, and materials to choose from.
With Tushbaby, you can have one carrier that evolves with your baby as they grow, rather than a collection of baby carriers. When traveling, the power of one multifunctional carrier can make a world of difference.

]]>Here are some top things to do with a baby in San Francisco.
San Francisco's iconic Golden Gate Bridge is on most tourists’ list of things to hit, and located just a few miles from the start of the Golden Gate Bridge is San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park. Escape to Golden Gate Park for an afternoon picnic with breathtaking views, recreational activities, car-free roads, or a bite to eat. There are so many things to do at Golden Gate Park with a baby, including museums and a botanical garden.
When you’re unsure of what the day may hold, traveling light can help you be ready for anything, even with a baby. Since you’ll likely be walking quite a bit, you’ll want to bring a carrier along for support—and you won’t want to miss your baby’s facial expressions as they learn about the things that catch their attention. For an adventure through Golden Gate Park, the Tushbaby is a hip carrier that truly does it all. From offering support as you carry or feed your baby to fostering bonding and storing your things, Tushbaby is well-loved by parents and caregivers worldwide. When your little one wants to stretch their legs and explore, the Tushbaby can fold up for easy storage and be paired with our Crossbody Straps to be worn like your favorite purse. Did we mention they both come in various colors so you can match them to your style?
Take in the Bay Area vibes at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market. Stroll the market with your baby as you discover locally-made products, irresistible waterfront eats, fresh air, and a little exercise. The farmer’s market can get busy, so it’s smart to have your Tushbaby carrier to keep your baby and belongings close. You’ll want to substitute your baby stroller for a baby carrier, and your bulky diaper bag or purse for a baby-friendly (and stylish) belt bag, like The Pack. The Pack comes in a range of fabrics and styles like vegan leather and velvet, and can be worn across your chest, back, or waist for extra storage.
Pack accordingly depending on how many hands you have on deck and how long you plan to spend at the market. As you streamline your stuff and look to maximize storage space, take advantage of the features of the Tushbaby, like the hideable bottle holder and five storage pockets. While Tushbaby can be used while supporting your baby with one arm, you may want to have both hands free while you and your baby see and touch things at the market. Luckily, you can do both with the Tushbaby and The Snug. Attach The Snug to your Tushbaby carrier, place your baby on the seat, wrap the straps over your shoulders, then buckle up and go for hands-free babywearing. You can wear The Snug with babies 12-45lbs and carry them facing in or out. Plus, The Snug can fit in the under-seat pocket of the Tushbaby!
The famous Alamo Square is a spot you’ve probably seen on TV before, but visiting it is another experience. Marvel at the “Painted Ladies,” a colorful row of seven Victorian and Edwardian houses nestled close, and the city skyline as you enjoy a picnic with your baby. When planning a picnic, you’ll want to bring along a few essentials like food & bevs and a cozy blanket to sit on. A picnic with a baby, though, expands the list of essentials. From clean diapers to wipes and feeding supplies, you’ll need a convenient way to pack everything you need. With your hands already full with a baby in tow, you’ll want to pack smart. You might turn to your stroller, but think again about wheeling that thing through the grassy fields of Alamo Square.
A few pro tips on picnicking with a baby are to use a baby carrier to keep your hands free while carrying picnic essentials and prepare for naps, feeding, and of course, diaper changes. With Tushbaby, you can be ready for it all. Start with our foldable changing pad that can fit in your pocket or a storage pocket of the Tushbaby—Tushbaby is a hip carrier with four carrying positions, including a feeding position for breastfeeding or bottle feeding support. On the waistband of the Tushbaby, we’ve included a bottle holder and pockets for your phone and wallet, in addition to the under-seat storage compartments.
For hands-free convenience and versatility, add The Snug: a first-of-its-kind wrap designed to be used with your Tushbaby so you can carry and cuddle your little one, hands-free! Just attach it to your Tushbaby carrier, place your baby on the seat, wrap the straps over your shoulders, then buckle up and go. It’s the same back-saving *relief* of a hip carrier with the hands-free flexibility of babywearing—the ultimate 2-in-1.
In San Francisco, there’s no shortage of views that will stick in your head forever. Stroll Pier 39 with your baby as you take in the sights of everything, from sea lions to panoramic views of the Golden Gate Bridge down the East Bay Area.
The Pier is filled with shops, entertainment, places to sit, and places to eat. It’s a bit compact, so babywearing will make your visit more enjoyable. Strap on your Tushbaby high and tight, rest your baby on the plush hip seat, and start exploring! When it’s time to feed, find a comfortable seat and switch to the feeding position with your baby laid across the Tushbaby for support. When your baby is tired, turn them face-to-face on the Tushbaby, and when they’re lost in the sea lions, carry them forward-facing or side-carry style. Tushbaby helps you support your baby with one arm as you watch their fascination with the excitement around them and learn to love life in your arms. When your baby no longer wants to be carried, help them down—then back up again—and continue wearing the Tushbaby without breaking stride.

]]>The Alamo is a historic destination that attracts visitors from far and wide to San Antonio. Nestled in downtown San Antonio, this historic mission once served as a waystation between Mexico and Texas. Spend the day touring The Alamo with your baby, and consider stopping downtown after for a quick bite and city views. As you stroll through The Alamo, your baby may not take in the learnings it offers, but they’ll surely be fascinated by the surroundings. Babywearing with the Tushbaby enhances that one-on-one time with your baby by providing a plush seat for your baby and built-in lumbar support for you. Interact with your baby in Tushbaby’s four carry positions to help them take in their surroundings and promote physical and emotional development.
This public park is an outdoor wonderland for kids and adults of all ages. With 15 acres to explore, you’ll want to pack for a long day. Fill your vegan leather Totebaby with our foldable changing pad (it comes with the Totebaby) so you can stop for a change in the park. Totebaby is stylish yet practical in buttery vegan leather—it can go from yoga bag to sustainable grocery bag to diaper bag in a snap. Totebaby comes with an extra crossbody strap and removable divider pocket, too—perfectly placed to store a folded-up Tushbaby.
The Pod is another handy and multifunctional accessory from Tushbaby; it’s a small zippable storage pouch that can hold pacifiers or other small essentials that you want quickly and easily accessible. With Tushbaby’s storage pocket’s and Totebaby’s multifunctionality, you can quite literally pack everything you need for a day at the garden.
The San Antonio River Walk is a must for most San Antonio visitors. The river is nestled between the charming city and lit up by reflecting lights at night. From boat tours to a walking pathway lined with shops and restaurants, the San Antonio River Walk is perfect for families who want to explore while getting fresh air. It can get crowded, though, so you’ll want to remember that before visiting with a baby.
Babywearing with a carrier that doubles as a diaper bag while visiting the San Antonio River Walk can help you travel lighter without compromising support. The Tushbaby hip carrier includes five storage pockets for essentials like diapers, wipes, snacks, and a bottle, and offers four carrying positions—including a feeding position. Change up your baby’s position to keep them entertained as you enjoy some one-on-one time exploring. Store a nursing cover in a pocket and lay your baby across the plush seat when it’s time to feed. You can also store The Snug, our Tushbaby attachment that allows for hands-free babywearing, in the under-seat storage pocket of The Tushbaby.
The San Antonio Zoo is huge, just like the city itself. With 8,500 animals and counting on 56 acres, the Zoo is a top attraction for families visiting San Antonio. Zoos offer entertainment and learning opportunities for kids of all ages, including babies. The San Antonio Zoo has stroller parking, so you can bring your stroller along, but as you know, your baby will likely end up in your arms or be running around from time to time.
Babywearing with the Tushbaby when you visit the zoo allows you to enjoy more bonding time with your baby while supporting your back with built-in lumbar support. The Tushbaby wraps high and tight above the hips while baby sits on the plush hip seat in one of the four carrying positions. Its open design allows wearers to support their babies and interact without worrying about lugging around a diaper bag too. When your baby wants down, you can keep wearing the Tushbaby, or fold it and flaunt it like your favorite purse with our range of Crossbody Straps.
San Antonio can be hot and humid, so while a splash pad may not sound like something attractive, you might soon change your mind. If you’re craving a cooldown with some priceless baby giggles, visit the splash pad at the historic Pearl Park. If your baby is walking, you might be doing a bit of running around at the splash pad. Pack minimally with our mini wearable diaper bag, The Pack, and wear it crossbody to keep your hands free. You may also want to bring along a foldable changing pad for a clean space to change your baby into dry clothes.

]]>On a long trip with baby, you’ll want a carrier for storage and support. Tushbaby is a multifunctional hipseat baby carrier that doubles as a fashionable diaper bag and nursing pillow, allowing you to streamline your packing list and ditch the extra baby baggage at home. It’s the only carrier that evolves with your child’s changing needs while being built to support you. Tushbaby features five storage pockets and four carrying positions—and when paired with The Snug attachment wrap, it transforms into a hands-free carrier with two extra carrying positions for babies over 12lbs.
Ready for more Myrtle Beach baby travel tips? Here’s what you should know.
Myrtle Beach is one of the East Coast’s top vacation destinations for families. Filled with free and fun attractions and Southern charm and hospitality, Myrtle Beach should definitely be on your radar for a vacation with a baby. It can get hot in the summer, so check temperatures before visiting—and as a top tourist destination, it can get overly crowded during peak seasons like summer. You may prefer to visit during less busy off-season times when traveling with a baby. Myrtle Beach is known for being well-kept and clean, which are two reasons why it’s one of the better beach destinations for families with a baby.
Central Myrtle Beach offers the most activities to do with families. From peaceful beaches to dining and easily accessible attractions, central Myrtle Beach is more affordable and family-friendly than other parts, which is a win-win. There are three parts of Myrtle Beach: North Myrtle Beach, central Myrtle Beach, and South Stand. There is no “main” area of Myrtle Beach, but the part you visit can influence your stay.
These two Myrtle Beach State Parks are relaxing, gorgeous, and filled with outdoor activities. At Myrtle Beach State Park, you can bond with your baby as you explore the sights and sounds of low-flying planes and crashing waves. At Huntington Beach State Park, you can enjoy crystal clear waterfront views and activities like picnicking, hiking, biking, and fishing —all of which you can do with a baby.
Regardless of the park you visit, prepare for a long day outside with your baby. Bring snacks, wipes, diapers, towels, sun protection, a baby carrier, a foldable changing pad, and more. When you bring your Tushbaby hip carrier to the beach or park, you’re equipped with a versatile carrier that promotes bonding and provides feeding support, storage pockets, and a stylish way to carry your baby and belongings. Stash your feeding cover in one of the five storage pockets of the Tushbaby, and seamlessly transition from other carrying positions to rest your baby in the feeding position when it’s time to eat. Between proper support and the glorious views ahead, this will be a memory with your baby that you’ll cherish forever. When naptime rolls around, pair The Snug with the Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing—it’s perfect for children 12-45lbs, and can be worn with baby facing in or out. It buckles to the base of the Tushbaby and is worn over the shoulders, and can even be stored in the Tushbaby under-seat pocket. It’s the same back-saving *relief* of a hip carrier with the hands-free flexibility of babywearing—the ultimate 2-in-1.
Your baby may crave a calming pacifier before taking a nap, too—attach our The Pod to just about anything from your beach bag to your carrier to keep a clean and sand-free paci handy. The Pod can hold other small items, too, like earbuds, lipstick, or credit cards for quick access.
The perfect combination of education and entertainment is WonderWorks at Myrtle Beach. While WonderWorks is geared more toward toddlers, you may still end up lugging them around during a long and exciting day. When the exhaustion hits, be ready to comfort and keep them going. The Tushbaby is designed for babies 0-3 years old, and has an open-style design for quick up-and-downs when your little one wants to play in the many Wonder Zones. The ability to fold up your Tushbaby for easy storage, pair the Crossbody Strap to carry it over your shoulder, or simply leave it on when you’re not babywearing makes it the perfect carrier for long, busy days—which is really any day with a baby in your life. Take your readiness one step further by packing The Snug in the under-seat pocket of the Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing. Carry your baby hands-free face-to-face or forward-facing up to 36 months old or 45 pounds (same as the Tushbaby) when you pair The Snug with the Tushbaby.
Known as one of the most unique playgrounds in Myrtle Beach, Savannah’s Playground is a free park to visit that offers you and your baby some social interaction, fresh air, and fun. Strollers at the park are a nice-to-have if your baby is walking already, but your stroller may be left unattended from time to time and can’t go everywhere with you. Consider packing your valuable personal belongings in our mini-wearable diaper bag, The Pack, for park days. Worn across the chest, back, or around the waist, The Pack allows you to keep items that you don’t want to lose on your body while keeping your hands free. It features multi-storage pockets and a hook for your keys, making it so much more than a stylish belt bag.
If your baby isn’t walking, you’ll definitely want to babywear at the park. The Tushbaby hip seat carrier straps high and tight above the wearer’s hips, while the baby sits on the plush hip seat in one of the four carry positions (face-to-face, side carry, forward-facing, and feeding). As you carry your baby with support, you can relax and soak in the moments as you interact and bond with your baby at the park.

]]>It can help to plan activities and outings around your baby’s established routine if they have one, but as a parent, you know by now that plans can change quickly with a baby.

Here are some things to do with a baby in Austin, Texas, and ways to make traveling with a baby easier.
The Domain offers a little bit of everything, from trendy boutiques and colorful art walls to modern housing and restaurants. With peaceful landscapes and spaces to sit back and just enjoy, The Domain is a fun and laid-back place to enjoy with your baby. As you stroll the sidewalks, you can window shop, people watch, or just enjoy the culture of Austin. The Domain has quickly become a hot spot for tourists and residents as it continues to grow with things to do.
While you can use a stroller at The Domain, it may be more enjoyable with a baby carrier for active parents. With a memory foam-lined seat for baby and built-in lumbar support for the wearer, the Tushbaby hip carrier is ideal for long days on the go. It straps high and tight above your natural waist to evenly distribute baby’s weight, and offers four carry positions to allow baby to interact with their surroundings.
Life with a baby is busy, and finding ways to relax is important for your health and well-being. Plants can naturally improve mood, reduce stress, and promote cleaner air. With over 279 acres of gardens, the Austin Wildflower Center is a relaxing escape for residents and visitors, with remarkable diversity and breathtaking beauty that can inspire creativity while showcasing the city of Austin’s wildflowers.
For active parents who love the outdoors, hiking can be a favorite activity, even with a baby. Nestled in the heart of Austin, Lady Bird Lake offers an urban path that hikers of all skill levels can trek with a baby. Take in views of the city's skyscrapers and the water’s edge as you and your baby enjoy in the cultural city of Austin.
Babywearing while hiking is one of the best ways to keep your baby safe and close while staying comfortable and mobile. For relaxing paths such as Lady Bird Lake, the Tushbaby is one of the best baby carriers for hiking with a baby. If they get hungry along the way, Tushbaby can seamlessly transition to feeding support and back again, without ever having to take it off or even stop to feed
Located in Covert Park, Mount Bonnell is a more intense hike than Lady Bird Lake. For our thrill-seeking hikers, this might be a better option, as Mount Bonnell is one of the highest points in Austin. While you can enjoy panoramic views on this hike, it’s still generally easy, hence why it’s on our list of things to do in Austin with a baby.
We always recommend babywearing while hiking. Babywearing can be hands-free or not, but if you’re hiking, you may want to opt for hands-free babywearing. Secure your baby in your Tushbaby with our first-of-its-kind Snug attachment for simple, hands-free babywearing. This carrier combo provides the same back-saving *relief* and storage of our award-wining hip carrier with the hands-free flexibility of babywearing—the ultimate 2-in-1.
Because adults love relaxation and kids love to play, Almost Grown Cafe offers the best of both worlds. Enjoy a fun atmosphere with salads, sandwiches, coffee, and an ice cream parlor, combined with designated play areas, interactive learning experiences, and more. For that one day of vacation when you just need to relax a little, this can be the perfect activity. You and your baby can connect with other families too, as you’re probably all there doing the same thing.
Before going, check tickets and special events as there is usually a small fee for entry. To help you travel a little lighter, pack your Totebaby with the essentials and head out— this sleek vegan leather tote combines style and functionality to help you ditch the bulky diaper bag at home. It comes with a removable organizer, changing pad, and divider pocket—perfectly designed to store a Tushbaby.
While Tushbaby began with our best-selling hip seat carrier, we’ve carried out our mission to make life with a baby easier. We now offer a full collection of products, all designed with safety, durability, and functionality in mind - and style too, of course.
For babies ages 0-3, the Tushbaby is the one baby carrier that does it all. As you may know, shopping is a bit harder nowadays, and budgets may be a bit tighter too. Finding products like Tushbaby that can grow with your baby offers value and convenience, too.

The Tushbaby is designed to strap on high and tight above the hips with a plush hip seat for your baby to sit on, or lay on if you’re using the feeding position. While it’s not hands-free, it can be when paired with The Snug attachment. It’s the same back-saving *relief* of a hip carrier with the hands-free flexibility of babywearing—the ultimate 2-in-1. When you’re not using The Snug, store it in one of the five storage pockets on the Tushbaby. Feeling more confident about traveling already? Let’s explore things to do with a baby in NYC.
Central Park is the largest (and an iconic) park in Manhattan. Located between the Upper West Side and Upper East Side of Manhattan, Central Park attracts millions of visitors each week. This world-famous park is family-friendly and offers clean fresh air, a haven for wildlife, and a sense of calmness in the busy city of NYC. From yoga classes to boat rides to the Central Park Zoo, there are endless things to do in the park with a baby.
Plan your trip to Central Park by viewing attractions, activities, and special events online, and pack a carrier for an action-packed day. With five pockets for baby essentials and personal items, Tushbaby is perfect for keeping everything close without having to lug around a diaper bag. Its ergonomic design offers built-in lumbar support for the wearer, ensuring mile 10 is just as comfy as mile 1. It’s the only carrier that does it all and keeps you looking stylish.
Times Square has plenty of excitement to offer, and a LOT of sensory stimulation. From the dazzling lights of Broadway shows to street performers and shopping, there’s truly no place like Times Square. When visiting with a baby, you’ll want to keep them close, and babywearing can make it easier to navigate busy spaces with your belongings in tow, too. For babies ages 0-3, the Tushbaby offers an open design that allows your baby to explore and interact with its surroundings while being supported. Praised for its ergonomic design and support by pediatricians, orthopedists, physical therapists, pelvic floor therapists, and even spine surgeons, the Tushbaby offers support and flexibility. The design of the Tushbaby reduces pressure on your upper body, neck, and back while supporting healthy hip development for your baby, placing their hips and legs in the Pediatrician-recommended ‘M’ position. Amidst the chaos of Times Square, you will want to keep your baby close and your belongings close, too. Tushbaby can help you do both with five storage pockets and a hideable bottle holder. When naptime or the need for hands-free babywearing arises, and it will, attach The Snug to the base of the Tushbaby, cross it over your shoulders, and buckle it securely in the back. Now your hands are free, your baby is safely resting on your chest, and your belongings are nearby – now you’re ready to take in the full experience of Times Square with a baby.
Surrounded by water, Coney Island offers peaceful views with a busy city backdrop. As a world-famous amusement park, you can visit the aquarium, ride the rides, and devour the famous eats at Coney Island.
Visit a playground: Imagination Playground, Hippo Playground, or Brooklyn Bridge Park Playground
Something hits different about hitting the park in New York City. We’ve highlighted several different parks on our list, but these ones in particular have great playgrounds. NYC is a busy city, but as busy as it is, it still strives to provide outlets for residents and visitors to enjoy a simpler life. Don’t forget to clip The Pod onto your Tushbaby before you head out to store a clean pacifier—when naptime rolls around, you’ll want the easy access.
NYC is a dynamic city with no shortage of sightseeing, both inside and outside. The Brooklyn Botanic Garden can be a great place to enjoy the city skyline while taking a break from the hustle and bustle of the city. Spread out over 52 acres, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden has plants and flowers meticulously landscaped to stroll through and bond with your baby. Be sure to bring your Tushbaby along to keep them supported—when they get hungry, Tushbaby seamlessly transitions to offer feeding support on the go.
In NYC, public transportation is how most people get around, so you’ll likely be taking your baby on their first subway ride. The Subway is rather compact and can be busy. When traveling on the Subway with a baby, babywearing is usually preferred. Avoid the crowded elevator without a cumbersome stroller and open your seating options while babywearing. The whistling and movement of the subway may even lull your baby to sleep. If you feel naptime coming on, pair The Snug with the Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing – the ultimate 2 in 1 combo. The Snug attaches to the base of the Tushbaby, goes over the wearer’s shoulders, and buckles in the back. Without The Snug, the Tushbaby requires the wearer to support the baby with one or both hands. The design promotes bonding and flexibility as you can take advantage of 4 carrying positions, including breastfeeding support.

Before you make your packing list, think through some of the things you might do in Tampa with a baby. As you pin ideas, consider the things you might need to bring along for the adventure. When you’re ready, pack your bags and venture to Tampa, Florida. Tushbaby will have your baby every step of the way - if you let us, of course!
Visiting one of Tampa’s glorious beaches can make for a relaxing and memory-filled day. From an obligatory baby sunglasses photo opp to a picnic with the sound of waves crashing, the beach is fun for the whole family. The downside can be that going to the beach with a baby can be messy – but we’ll let you decide if it’s worth it. If you plan to visit the beach with a baby, be prepared. If you’re traveling, you may need to rent some of the items, such as a shade tent, to protect your baby’s delicate skin. Our foldable changing pad can provide a clean surface for diaper changes at the beach. Since our Tushbaby or Tushbaby Lite hip seat carrier folds up for easy storage, you might be able to find room in your beach bag for it. As you trudge through the sand with a baby and all the things in tow, you might need some extra support. Babywearing at the beach is a thing, and with the Tushbaby or Tushbaby Lite, your baby carrier can double as breastfeeding support and storage too. The Tushbaby Lite is a smaller version of our classic Tushbaby, perfect for outdoor adventures like the beach. The Tushbaby and Tushbaby Lite strap on high and tight above the hips and feature a multifunctional hip seat, making it easy and comfortable to rock that bathing suit and baby all at once.
Beat the Tampa heat with extraordinary indoor playgrounds at the Playgrounds of Tampa. From open play hours to parents’ night out, Playgrounds of Tampa is a playful activity for Tampa visitors. Let the kids play while you enjoy a coffee from the on-site cafe or drop your baby off during parents' night out to check out a local restaurant (adult style). To go from being mommy to wifey, tote our stylish vegan leather Totebaby, designed to hold all of the things while disguising just how functional it really is.
The Bayshore Boulevard is an iconic attraction in Tampa with 4.5 miles of scenic views that parallel Tampa Bay. As one of the longest strands of continuous sidewalks in the United States, you can pass by some of Tampa’s most prestigious homes, many on the National Historic Register. With a 10-foot wide sidewalk, you can pack your stroller up for sightseeing. When your baby is in the stroller though, it can be hard to interact or see all the priceless reactions. Pack along a supportive baby carrier to enhance the experience. The Tushbaby folds up for easy storage and can be strapped on with one buckle and velcro strap above the hips. With four carrying positions and no dangling straps, it’s ideal for the days that call for a mix of babywearing and not-babywearing. Plus, you can wear the Tushbaby whether you’re babywearing or not. For days when you have a stroller in tow, the Tushbaby Lite may be suitable for the occasion. As a smaller version of the traditional Tushbaby, it can offer equal support while taking up less space.
There’s a lot to learn about manatees, such as they are the closest relative to the elephant. As a USA Today 10 Best Readers’ Choice travel award choice, this free attraction in Tampa is a popular one. Using Live Webcams, you can check to see if the manatees are at the center before stopping by. The Tidal Walk can get crowded, so you may want to opt for babywearing instead of a bulky stroller. The Tushbaby can be worn with baby on the hip or front-facing, allowing them to see their surroundings and making it easy to interact with them. Comfortably carry your baby with support, and store your things in the storage pockets as you observe the manatees. Need to stop to feed in public? Find a comfortable bench, draw your nursing cover from a Tushbaby storage packet, and use the Tushbaby feeding position for breastfeeding support.
For long days of exploring, you may need stretches of hands-free babywearing, especially for nap time. Pair The Snug attachment with the Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing. When not in use, you can stash it in one of the five storage pockets of the Tushbaby. Our Crossbody Strap may also come in handy as it hooks to the Tushbaby, so you can wear it over your shoulder when not in use. For days on the go or while traveling, this can keep your baby carrier close while keeping your hands free.
]]>Here are some things to do with a baby in Seattle:
The Zoo is full of exotic sounds and sights. It’s an intriguing place for babies and parents, too. It’s fast-paced and exciting yet calming at the same time. For most, it takes about four-plus hours to explore the whole zoo, so prepare for a long afternoon. When visiting the zoo with a baby it’s usually best to bring a stroller along for your baby and your things, too. For more time bonding and interacting with your baby, bring a baby carrier, too.
The Tushbaby is a hip seat carrier designed for making memories. It straps on high and tight on the waist with a plush hip seat. Your baby can sit on the plush hip seat in one of the four carrying positions as you support them with one or both arms. Take advantage of the ability to comfortably hold your baby to point, laugh, and touch them as you explore the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle together. These memories will last a lifetime.
Watching your baby discover things they love is exciting as a parent. Providing your baby with safe places to discover can help promote development and inspire curiosity. The Seattle Children’s Museum features exhibits such as Transit, where kids can learn about the importance of public transportation, and Orca Cove designed for kids ages 0-3 years of age (just like the Tushbaby). When visiting the Seattle Children’s Museum, it can be helpful to have your hands free so you’re ready to plan and interact with your baby.
From The Pack, our fashionable fanny pack, to the Tushbaby hip seat carrier with storage pockets, Tushbaby offers practical and safe baby products that can enhance any adventure. During your day at the Seattle Children’s Museum, chances are your baby will want to go from being carried to put down often. The Tushbaby makes that transition seamless, as there are no complicated straps restricting your baby. The Snug Attachment also makes it easy to go hands-free with your Tushbaby while still being able to interact with your baby and keep them close.
A trip to T-Mobile Park to watch the Seattle Mariners play might be a double win for you and your baby. For sports-loving families, a day at the ballpark can equal tons of fun. As you expose your baby to things the family loves, it’s important to remember that your baby is delicate. Pack along ear protection and other essentials to keep your baby safe and comfortable, as you see fit. While T-Mobile Park allows strollers, it can be difficult and stressful to wheel a stroller around such a crowded place.
Babywearing at the ballpark is a game-changer. The Tushbaby makes it easy to sit or stand while babywearing, plus it can offer breastfeeding support. With five storage pockets, you can keep some necessities like a pacifier, nursing cover, or our foldable changing pad on hand. The Tushbaby requires the wearer to support the baby with one or both hands, which can be ideal for interacting and bonding with baby, but we have a hands-free option, too. The Snug attachment (which can fit in one of the storage pockets), offers hands-free babywearing with the Tushbaby. Hands-free babywearing at the Mariner’s Game is ideal during naptime, navigating the crowd, or loading up on concessions.
A historical landmark, Volunteer Park was originally purchased in 1876 from a sawmill engineer. By 1912, the park had transformed with walking paths, lawns, lily ponds, a music pavilion, and more. The park features an indoor toddler play area for children under the age of 5, boat rentals, picnic tables, and more. For a relaxing atmosphere with plenty of sights to see, Volunteer Park is a popular attraction for families visiting Seattle.
With a wide variety of things to do, it can be ideal for families with more than one baby. With so much ground to cover, you’ll probably want to bring your stroller along. However, you might not be able to or want to take it everywhere, so bringing a baby carrier along is smart. The Tushbaby hip seat carrier can fold up for easy storage, making it ideal for traveling. Our mini wearable crossbody diaper bag, The Pack, can also be the perfect addition for exploring Volunteer Park. Simply load it up, strap it on, and do what you do best, Mom (or Dad). It can allow you to keep essentials close without the thought or distraction of carrying a bag.
Riding the ferry in Seattle is a scenic and affordable water experience that can serve as a gateway to visit more places near Seattle. However, the Seattle ferry can also serve as a relaxing way to take in breathtaking views, the city skyline or surrounding mountain views. Some babies find the motion of the ferry to be calming. Bringing a baby on a ferry is safe as long as the rules are followed. You may be doing quite a bit of time sitting. When you use the Tushbaby hip seat carrier, it’s easy to sit or stand while wearing the carrier (and baby, too). T
he Tushbaby is an open-face carrier without complicated straps. To use it, simply strap it on high and tight above the hip and place the baby on the plush hip seat. Switch up carrying positions or use the Tushbaby for breastfeeding support. If baby wants out of the carrier, just lift them off, and if you choose, you can continue to wear the carrier (and store your things in it too).
]]>So, book that flight to Atlanta or map out that road trip. Life with a baby may be a bit more fast-paced and methodical, but you can still get out and do the things you love with one of the humans you love the most. Here are some things to do with a baby in Atlanta, Georgia.
Discovering healthy activities and ways to connect and use our body at a young age is valuable. The Little Gym in Atlanta is a popular attraction for families visiting with a baby. The Little Gym offers gymnastics for kids as young as 4 months old. Sign up for a parent-child class for an interactive experience that can help your baby develop strength and motor skills.
Zoos offer fun for the whole family. From learning about animals, observing animals, and enjoying the chatter of families having fun, checking out zoos in different cities can be a fun bucket list item. When visiting Atlanta with a baby, stop by the Zoo Atlanta to see more than 1,000 animals and one of North America’s largest populations of Great Apes. While most families need a stroller for a successful zoo day, a baby carrier can be needed, too. From giving your tired arms a break to just a more comfortable way to interact and carry your baby, babywearing at the zoo can enhance the experience. The Tushbaby is a multifunctional hip seat carrier, ideal for a long day of fun at the zoo. Simply strap it on high and tight on your waist and place your baby on the plush hip seat. They can sit front-facing, face-to-face, or side-carrying. Need to feed? Stop and switch to the feeding position with the Tushbaby. Keep your nursing cover and other feeding essentials in one of the five storage pockets of the Tushbaby.
Continuing on the theme of animals and Atlanta, the Georgia Museum is an educational and fun stop to add to your trip. Similar to a long day at the zoo, it can be helpful to bring a baby carrier along in addition to your stroller. With so much to do at The Georgia Museum, your baby may need a nap during your visit. While some babies may drift off in the stroller, others prefer to be held close. The Snug attachment can be worn with the Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing. This means you can go from a supportive hip seat carrier to a hands-free baby carrier with one simple attachment — giving you the ultimate 2-in-1 carrying solution. Both scenarios allow you to interact with your baby, and the Tushbaby's storage pockets make it easy to keep your essentials on hand while carting baby through the museum.
At the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, you can connect with the community spirit while learning about culture and art. As a space that recognizes the uniqueness of every visitor, the experience is truly one of a kind. Every Thursday between 10:00 am - 3:00 pm the museum offers Toddler Thursdays for toddlers 15 months to 3 years of age. Toddler Thursdays are designed to engage creativity while focusing on monthly topics with related artwork and self-guided tours.
This non-profit is driven by the mission to encourage children of all ages to develop their full potential through thrilling hands-on learning. As your baby’s mind explores a new place, this can be the perfect opportunity for their curiosity to shine through. Plan a day at Interactive Neighborhood for Kids to let your child’s imagination run wild as they create and explore new things. If possible, try to pack in ways that keeps your hands free so you can interact with your child, too. The Pack by Tushbaby is a mini crossbody diaper bag that’s perfect for a long day at the museum. Compliment the storage of The Pack with the Totebaby, which can be worn over the shoulder like a tote bag, only this one is designed for moms on-the-go. Overflow items can be stashed in your Tushbaby Carrier if needed.
At Tushbaby, our collection of baby products all fit that bill and are designed to make life with a baby easier. A few products that make traveling with a baby easier include…
Our best-selling Tushbaby Hip Seat Carrier that can fold up for easy storage and double as breastfeeding support. This streamlined hip seat carrier is worn high and tight on the waist. Simply buckle it on, pick your baby up, and rest their bottom on the plush hip seat. For long days of travel, you can enjoy the freedom to pick up your baby and put them down with ease (goodbye complicated and messy straps). You can also enjoy the freedom of sitting or standing with the Tushbaby on. Plus, you can store things you need (or things you don’t need) in the five storage pockets.
For naps on the plane or strolls through the airport during nap time, you might need to babywear hands-free. Rest assured, you can when you use The Snug with the Tusbaby. The Snug is an attachment that hooks onto the base of the carrier with straps that cross over the wearer’s shoulders and buckles around the back. Keep it handy as it can even fit in a storage pocket of the Tushbaby. Be prepared for the fast-paced, interactive moments and the slower moments with Tushbaby and The Snug attachment.
When you’re on the go, you might not have the luxury to stop and find a place to stow your Tushbaby. Or, you might not have room to stow it at all. When traveling to Atlanta with a baby and the Tushbaby, bring our Crossbody Strap along for the journey. Our Crossbody Strap allows you to go from wearing a baby carrier to carrying it over your shoulder without breaking stride. From taking the strain off the body to keeping your baby close and safe, babywearing while traveling is a smart way to make the trip go smoother. Keep your Tushbaby close and your baby closer.

You’ll need free hands as often as possible when you visit the pumpkin patch.

Babies love being close to their moms, and some may leave their moms no choice but to keep them close! And even after the holidays, Mom will need a way to hold her little one comfortably while she gets her work and chores around the house done.
Babywearing isn’t a new trend, but more options have entered the market over time. A common pain point of babywearing is the cumbersome process of taking the carrier on and off, since many carriers may require more than one set of hands to finagle. Some babies also like to have a little variety in how they’re worn— sometimes they prefer to face outward, and sometimes they like to face inward.
Give a new mom the gift of versatility, comfort, and convenience with Tushbaby: a hipseat baby carrier designed for babies 0-3 years old. What sets it apart is its streamlined yet multi-purpose design that both parents and babies will love. Simply strap the Tushbaby on high and tight above your waist and carry your baby in one of the four carry positions—Tushbaby evenly distributes baby’s weight across the wearer’s body and even offers built-in lumbar support. Better still, Tushbaby doubles as a breastfeeding pillow that Mom can use as early as infancy, making it the ultimate 2-in-1 gift—and saving her from an extra purchase.
Tushbaby’s design allows the wearer to support their baby with one arm while evenly distributing baby’s weight, relieving the common aches and pains parents often face when carrying their baby on their hip. The open-style seat makes it easy to pick your baby up and put them down as demanded, and with five pockets, there’s no shortage of storage for baby gear and Mom’s personal items.
For babies 12-45 pounds, Tushbaby can be paired with The Snug attachment for hands-free babywearing! Like the Tushbaby, The Snug is ultra mom-friendly— it’s designed exclusively for the Tushbaby carrier to be adjusted and put on alone, no helpers needed. Attach it to your Tushbaby and place your baby on the seat, wrap the straps over your shoulders to form an x across your back, then buckle the side straps to keep ’em close on the go—hands-free and worry-free. For toddlers and babies that love to be worn, The Snug offers a way to get the same back saving *relief* while keeping hands free for grocery shopping, chores around the house, or just keeping your little one extra close.
Tushbaby also offers a Waistband Extender if more room is needed around the waist. Gift Tushbaby for baby’s first holiday so the whole family can use it for years to come!
As a new mom, you need your hands free as often as possible. You also need your secret weapons — pacifiers, rattles, burp rags, and more — nearby at all times, especially when you’re on the go. The Snug attaches to your Tushbaby and allows you to go hands-free, and the Tushbaby has five storage pockets to help keep your essential items close.
When not babywearing, you can use the Tushbaby Crossbody Strap to comfortably carry your beloved hip seat carrier (and all your things) the same way you’d wear a crossbody bag. The Crossbody Strap can also attach to other bags with D-rings, making it versatile in how it helps you carry your essentials around.
Keep in mind that the Tushbaby Crossbody Strap cannot be used while babywearing, but rather, is a convenient way to tote your Tushbaby carrier around when it’s not in use.
When baby is ready to be picked up, go from toting your Tushbaby with the Crossbody Strap to babywearing with your Tushbaby in just a few minutes. Simply strap your Tushbaby on high and tight around your waist, and you’re ready to hold baby on the hip seat. You can even store the Crossbody Strap in one of the Tushbaby’s five storage pockets. When you gift Tushbaby + accessories, you’re giving Mom an entire system to make babywearing anywhere a breeze.
Mom may not get much time to relax, so it’s always nice to give her something she can use when she’s taking time for herself to unwind. With a new little one, Mom may buy less for herself and more for her baby— so sometimes, the simplest gifts can go a long way.
Consider a scented candle to help mom drift off into relaxation—you could pair it with a bath bomb or face mask, too. Turning a simple gift into a themed basket is a great way to add a personal touch without overspending, so tap into your creative side and do something special for that new mom! A luxurious candle is a budget-friendly gift that new moms love, whether gifted alone or with other items.
New moms are going through many changes right after birth, so it can be tricky to gift them clothing, but jewelry can be a meaningful gift. Whether you choose a piece of jewelry that symbolizes their new baby or something that adds sparkle to their daily wardrobe, there are plenty of options out there. Many kinds of jewelry can also be customized to make it even more special. Consider gifting a heart-shaped locket to hold a photo of Mom’s newborn baby or an engraved ring with baby’s birthdate. A piece of jewelry with a birthstone can also be a special sentiment.
While jewelry can be a meaningful gift, remember that babies love grabbing Mom’s shiny necklace and dangly earrings. For these moments, Mom may need a safe place to store her jewelry, especially if she and baby are out and about.
The Pod is a compact zipper pouch designed to clip onto your Tushbaby, your stroller, or even your favorite bag for quick access to petite essentials. Whether you need to store your baby’s beloved pacifier, your sentimental jewelry, credit cards, earbuds, or lip balm, The Pod ensures your items are safe and clean, and always in arm’s reach. Carry on, Mom—Tushbaby is here to make your life with a baby easier.
Moms spend a lot of time at home with their babies in their newborn days. A cozy pair of socks can help keep Mom warm and cozy, but they may not be enough support for her feet while walking around the house with her baby. A pair of cushy, soft, yet durable house slippers can offer Mom some much-needed support and comfort. Slippers can range in price, so you can make this gift idea as budget-friendly or as outlandish as you want.
And don’t forget, if Mom needs more support for her back, neck, and shoulders, gifting a Tushbaby along with the new slippers can give her the ultimate gift of pain-free babywearing! With Tushbaby’s built-in lumbar support, she’ll thank you from the bottom of her heart—and her back.
Nursing covers are extremely valuable to moms who like their privacy, since nursing on the go is inevitable. So imagine this: Mom goes from babywearing to breastfeeding and back again, without ever needing to stop for a beat—all while being discreet under her nursing cover. With Tushbaby, it’s easy to transition baby from a seated position to a feeding position while using the Tushbaby for support. Whether feeding at home or on the go, Tushbaby offers a practical and supportive solution that serves as two products in one.
While using Tushbaby in the feeding position, you can use a nursing cover to get the privacy you need to feel comfortable. There are different styles of nursing covers to choose from—some wrap around mom and baby entirely, while others cover just the front—but no matter your choice, they can all be used with your Tushbaby while feeding.
Breastfeeding moms spend much of their time feeding their babies, so maintaining good breastfeeding posture while feeding is important. Since babies often need a lot of stuff, finding multifunctional products can help new moms get more value from what they have while reducing the number of items they need.
As we mentioned, the Tushbaby offers a feeding position for babies as early as infancy! If new moms plan to travel, run errands, or just spend the day at home, they can babywear, feed, and store their belongings all with the Tushbaby carrier. When you gift Tushbaby, you can give multiple items in one.
Just like moms love babywearing hands-free, they love cleaning hands-free, too. A robot vacuum can make a great gift to help mom clean those floors. After all, her body is taking enough of a toll holding, feeding, changing, bathing, and doing everything involved with caring for a baby.
Let’s be real. Babies are a lot of work. Cleaning may be important, but by the time you get your baby down for sleep, you may be ready to hand off some chores to someone else so you can get some much-needed rest. Gift a robot vacuum to help Mom keep up with the household while caring for her baby.
Mom may have to give up some of the things she loves to keep up with caring for her baby, but a stylish tote is not one of those things. She’ll need a bag like Totebaby to carry everything she needs for an all-day excursion or outings with multiple stops. Totebaby is perfect for stashing movie snacks (or wine bottles), picnic blankets, yoga mats, or baby items, and even comes with removable baby tote features, like an organizer, fold-up changing pad, and divider pocket—perfectly designed to hold a Tushbaby.
From storing your stuff and your baby’s stuff to even doubling as a sustainable grocery bag, Totebaby is the ultimate bag of tricks every mom deserves. Choosing a diaper bag to gift can be overwhelming, especially if you’re not a mom yourself—but rest assured, Tushbaby can make gifting moms the best products that much easier. Trust us to deliver parent-first products designed to simplify life with a baby.

]]>Here are some of the best Christmas gift ideas for grandparents.
Table of Contents
Reflecting on our journey and seeing it through the eyes of people we love is something we may not ask for as a baby, but will appreciate later on. While Mom and Dad may be too busy trying to keep up with the household, work, and life with a baby, grandparents may have more free time. Gifting grandparents a journal to write in can eventually make for a great gift to pass down to their grandchild. Some journals even include a spot for photos. Consider gifting a Polaroid camera with a journal to take their journaling to the next level.
Grandparents love pictures of their family and the things they love most. Most also love traditional items such as wall calendars, scrapbooks, framed photos, etc. Creating a customized calendar for grandparents is a great gift that will bring them joy all year. They may even love it so much that it becomes an annual Christmas gift! Calendars can also be saved, making them a memorable way to reflect on old photos of their grandbaby.
Grandparents love exploring with their pride and joy—their baby’s baby. However, their bodies may not be as strong or durable as they once were. To show grandparents some appreciation for helping with the baby, gift them a foot massager or other self-care relaxation gift. An at-home foot massager can help release the tension in their feet after walking, bouncing, or caring for their grandbaby. Another great gift idea to help protect a grandparent’s body while caring for baby is a baby carrier with back support. Keep reading to learn about the best baby carrier for parents and grandparents.
While Grandma and Grandpa may love holding their grandbaby, their bodies may not love it as much. Gifting a baby carrier for Grandma or Grandpa can promote bonding time while protecting their bodies and make them more confident carrying their grandchild. It can also be safer for your baby, as grandparents have additional support while holding them. The Tushbaby is one of the best baby carriers for grandparents because it’s easy to put on and use, and it’s extremely practical and comfortable. It features four carrying positions and five storage pockets—so you can load it up and ship your baby off to the grandparents.
“Grandma and Grandpa”, alongside” Mom and Dad”, may be their favorite titles in life. A great way to help grandparents brag about their new status is personalized sippy cups for baby. Or, gifting Grandma and Grandpa temperature-controlled and personalized sippy cups can help keep their favorite drink hot or cold, while making them feel extra special. There’s a wide variety of customizable cups online, giving you plenty of choices to find the perfect one. If you have an upcoming event with the grandparents, such as a trip to Disney or a family vacation, you may want to consider a cup that aligns with that theme.
Each Christmas that passes, baby gets a little bit older. Gifting Christmas ornaments each holiday can be a sentimental way to remember how special each Christmas was. You can order a personalized Christmas ornament or hand-craft it—it can even be as simple as a printed photo of baby with “Merry Christmas” and the year engraved on one side.
Babies grow up way too fast, but we forever hold onto the moments that make up their childhood. Nothing is more precious than a newborn baby with tiny hands and feet. You can’t help but look at them and wonder where they’ll go in life and who they’ll grow up to be while selfishly hoping they can stay small forever. To preserve the memories of your tiny little baby, gift grandma and grandpa framed handprints and footprints of your newborn. They can cherish the memory and share it with baby when they are old enough to understand.
Grandma and Grandpa may not always get to be present with baby, or for that matter, see them on a regular basis. Whether the grandparents are regular visitors or not, they will still love a way to keep a reminder of their precious grandbaby with them. Engraved or personalized jewelry can also make a great Christmas gift for grandparents. There are several ways to gift jewelry, from a locket with engraved initials and a photo slot to a ring with a birthdate and initials or baby’s name and birthstone,
Grandparents love to spoil grandbabies. Gifting them a fanny pack or lightweight diaper bag can help them prepare to spoil their grandbaby all day long, at home or on the go. The Pack is a stylish and comfortable mini wearable diaper bag that Grandma or Grandpa can wear around their chest, back, or waist to store baby’s essentials and their own gear while keeping their hands free. If they need more space, consider gifting a Totebaby: this vegan leather tote doubles as a diaper bag with removable features, including an organizer, changing pad, and a divider pocket to fit a Tushbaby.
Are you a new grandparent thinking, what do grandparents buy for a new baby? We’ve got you covered.
]]>Gift a new dad a gift they can use, love, and share this holiday. We’ve got some ideas for you below.
Table of Contents
A baby carrier can be one of the most helpful gifts for Dad that he likely won’t think to buy himself. After all, much of his time is spent carrying his baby. Baby carriers promote bonding and contribute to a happier baby, and with Tushbaby, Dad can babywear with back, neck and shoulder support while doing fun activities with baby or just hanging out at home.
The Tushbaby is an open-style hip seat carrier that features four carrying positions and five storage pockets. Its design makes it easy to take on and off alone, as well as pick baby up and put them down as demanded. It’s designed to make life with a baby easier—as are all products made by Tushbaby!
Dad may experience less time to bond with baby than Mom. Babywearing can offer dad bonding time with baby even while doing the simplest things, like bouncing before a nap or strolling the neighborhood. For hands-free babywearing, you can pair The Snug attachment wrap with Tushbaby for a stylish and practical gift set. The Snug attaches to the Tushbaby carrier and is wrapped over the wearer's shoulders to buckle the baby securely between The Snug and the wearer’s body—all while offering the back-saving *relief* of Tushbaby’s hipseat. Dad can easily get baby safely secured without an extra set of hands, and without any confusing wrapping and strapping.
Tushbaby also offers a Waistband Extender to add 23 additional inches around the waist, giving the Tushbaby a total of 70 inches in length. With our Waistband Extender, you can adjust the Tushbaby up or down over your winter clothes or share with friends and family of all shapes and sizes.
Many dads have shared responsibilities with moms. From grocery shopping with a baby to daycare drop-offs, Dad needs his own gear to help him take a load off while he’s taking care of baby. Additionally, our single dads out there take on a parenting role for two, and need all the help they can get.
Some families may choose to have two sets of diaper bags (one for mom and one for dad), and this may work, but you don’t always need a full diaper bag. The Pack is Tushbaby’s crossbody mini wearable diaper bag that checks off all the boxes: comfort, convenience, and style. Dad can wear it around his chest, back, or waist to carry extra baby gear—or to use as his own utility-style crossbody on active days when he’s off baby duty. Bonus points: it’s one of the few fanny packs on the market with a built-in full-size bottle holder.
At Tushbaby, we know the flexibility it takes to raise a baby—one of the many reasons we created The Pack. Help Dad tackle his daily to-do’s or hit the local brewery with baby ready for anything. The Pack makes a great Christmas gift for all dads, and of course, moms can use it too!
Because we all love to sleep (and need it), aids to help Dad lull baby to sleep are gifts the whole family will thank you for. As Dad tries to share bedtime responsibilities with Mom, it may take some adjusting, especially for breastfed babies. A white noise sound machine is the perfect tool to help lull baby to sleep while getting some extra help. Some white noise machines play nature-like sounds that can relax both Dad and baby. In an effort to mimic some familiar sounds from the womb, white noise machines are often successful in helping baby fall asleep, and stay asleep.
But what about on a road trip or overnight stay?
Don’t worry, your noise machine should fit in a diaper bag or tote, such as the Totebaby, for easy travel.
Dads can sometimes feel like outsiders as, naturally, babies may be more drawn to Mom. However, moms and dads love equally and are proud of the tiny human they’ve created. An engraved watch from Mom and baby is a personal and sentimental gift idea for new dads. They can wear it daily to remind them how valuable time with their family is. As they work the day away, they can watch the time go by as they are one minute or hour closer to returning to their loved ones. There are a variety of customizable watch options on the market in an assortment of price ranges.
But don’t forget, once babies get a little older, they LOVE to grab Mom and Dad’s jewelry and, yes, watches! If you need a quick place to store your precious timepiece, The Pod is a vegan leather pouch that can hold Dad’s watch, baby’s binky, and even keys when on the go. It can clip onto dad’s belt loops, backpack, and Tushbaby, of course.
Dads and their wallets—are we right? A sleek new wallet can give a new dad a great deal of excitement for streamlining their cash and cards. Think practical, safe, and cool—just because they’re dads now doesn’t mean they have to downgrade their look and style. Additionally, as a new dad, they may try to fit more things in their pockets… which, of course, won’t work long. A slim wallet can make more room for dad essentials like pacifiers or burp rags.
The Tushbaby hip seat carrier and The Pack also feature pockets big enough for dad's new wallet and baby essentials, too. Leaving as much room as possible for baby’s essentials can help set Dad up for smooth sailing.
Life with a baby can be pretty busy, so Dad will need plenty of fuel for himself and his baby, too. A snack box or snack organizer can make for a budget-friendly gift for new dads that they likely won’t think to buy themselves. Don’t forget, Dad will need somewhere to store the snacks, too. A mini wearable diaper bag like The Pack or a storage pocket on the Tushbaby are both ideal spots to stash some snacks. Make sure Dad is equipped with all the dad gear he needs to compete with Mom!
Just like food, caffeine is fuel, too. Staying awake and hydrated is important as a parent, so gifting a new dad a temperature-controlled mug or tumbler can help them survive busy mornings or long days with baby. Most temperature-controlled mugs or tumblers can keep beverages warm or cold. Think about what type of coffee and drinks Dad uses to get him just the right style. Some companies can even personalize the cup, which can come in handy for a busy dad and add a little sweetness to their energy boost.
We all need a little escape or distraction, especially as a parent. Giving Dad a new set of earbuds can offer him a way to care for baby while doing something for himself at the same time. Whether he enjoys podcasts, music, or just needs a way to drown out the noise, earbuds can help Dad keep calm while caring for baby. Earbuds can be used when Dad Mode is on or off, making them a versatile gift option that dads are sure to get plenty of use out of. This is always a popular holiday gift, so you may even be able to score a holiday deal on top-notch earbuds.
When not in use, Dad can store his earbuds in The Pod (another great gift idea for Dad), a sleek zipper pouch that hooks onto the stroller, baby carrier, Dad’s backpack, or his work bag. The Pod can keep all of Dad’s accessories—like a pacifier, earbuds, or credit cards—clean and in arm’s reach.
Our health is our most valuable asset. You may value it even more when you become a parent, since you want to be healthy and strong for you and your baby. New gadgets that promote healthy exercise and bring awareness to our daily actions can be a great gift. A health and fitness tracker can be a smartwatch or other device that tracks heart rate, sleep patterns, steps, calories burned, and more. Do a little sleuthing to learn more about what the new dad you’re buying for already has and what other technology he uses. This will help you choose a health and fitness tracker that pairs best with his technology lineup.
Since most babies enjoy walking (especially outdoors), a health and fitness tracker can help Dad log those steps while strolling with his baby on his Tushbaby. Babywearing can promote bonding during a nice walk while helping Dad carry baby longer and more comfortably with proper support.
]]>The Tushbaby is a multifunctional hipseat carrier with an open-style design that evenly distributes baby's weight. It has built-in lumbar support to alleviate painful spine curvature in adults, while also offering a plush seat for baby that promotes healthy hip growth. The Tushbaby also features a feeding position so you can feed with support while out and about, or at home. It also folds up for easy storage and can be worn with The Snug Attachment for hands-free babywearing. Just attach the Snug to your Tushbaby carrier, place your baby on the seat, wrap the straps over your shoulders, and buckle up and go.
Before you pack your bag, here are some things to do in San Diego with a baby.
The best part about San Diego is its diversity: you have a busy city, quiet suburbs, and laid-back beach towns all within driving distance. The animal-loving community of San Diego, and more specifically Encinitas, is home to Cindy Lu’s Petting Zoo. Get the kids excited to meet and greet their favorite furry friends! If you're bringing a baby along, you may want to pair The Snug with your Tushbaby for hands-free babywearing.
The San Diego Zoo attracts visitors year-round. From exotic animals to craft beer and an Aerial Tram, there’s lots to see and learn at the San Diego Zoo. Located near Balboa Park, you can explore the zoo and Balboa Park all in one day with your baby. Just be sure to pack everything you’ll need for a long day of exploring, and bring a blanket or stroller along for a nice afternoon by the lush gardens with your baby.
Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve offers mesmerizing ocean views, sandy beaches to lounge on, and some of the best spots to eat in town. If you plan to hike with a baby at the reserve, you’ll likely want to pay for parking to enter and drive as far up the hill as you can before embarking on your hike. If you plan to explore the trails, you’ll want to babywear with your Tushbaby, as most are not stroller-friendly. After your hike, grab a sandwich at a local favorite spot Board and Brew, or sit down and enjoy the ambiance at Monarch Ocean Pub.
A historical monument surrounded by green hills and ocean views, the Cabrillo National Monument is a must-see for tourists. In honor of the 1542 landing of Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo at San Diego Bay, this landmark represents the first time a European expedition set foot on what later became the West Coast of the United States. Bring your camera and some snacks as you learn about history in a beautiful setting. You’llwant to babywear for this outing too—Tushbaby’s open-style design offers four carry positions for baby to see the sights while you hold them comfortably.
Legoland is so much more than a Lego theme park. While it’s on the smaller side for California theme parks, it still has everything, from rides to water parks and splash pads. Watch your baby learn through interactive experiences while their imagination runs wild, all under the beautiful California rays of sunshine.
Balboa Park has a long list of things to do with a baby. From scenic restaurants to green parks, flower fields, and museums, you can enjoy a picnic, take a stroll, discover some art, and more. It’s a popular spot for local events and live music, so check the calendar to see what’s offered during your visit. Located in Carlsbad, California, you might even consider arranging to stay for an evening to explore the nearby flower fields. Being hands-free can make exploring the park easier, so opt for the Tushbaby and Snug combo to give your hands and arms a break while baby takes in the surrounding sites.
Some beaches are more baby-friendly than others in San Diego. From the accessibility to cleanliness and the crowd they attract, not all beaches are the same.
Two beaches you may want to put on your radar are La Jolla Shores and Torey Pines. La Jolla Shores is a family-friendly beach town nestled in an upscale part of San Diego with an attraction of seals, green grass picnic spots, and sandy beaches. Torey Pines is family-friendly too, but La Jolla Shores has more to do nearby and has a bigger beach. To keep a pacifier clean on sandy beaches, strap our Pod onto your beach bag, carrier, or Totebaby diaper bag.
The Mission Beach Boardwalk is iconic in San Diego. Walk the paved boardwalk, explore the beachside arcade and mini amusement park, taste all the tastes of San Diego, and shop around Mission Beach. Connected to other popular beach towns, Mission Beach is one of the most family-friendly spots for day or night, with fire pits and grass BBQ spots for large gatherings with friends. Plus, with two spacious parking lots, you can find a free spot and stay as long as you want. Having your car nearby is a plus, especially when spending the day at the beach with a baby.
San Diego has a lot of land to explore. While it’s less crowded than other popular cities, navigating it with a baby can be even more enjoyable with our famous Tushbaby hip seat baby carrier.
But our products go beyond just our effortless baby carrier.
Shop our super-slim fold-up changing pad made of vegan leather and easily stored in a Tushbaby pocket or Totebaby. You may also need The Pod to keep a pacifier clean and nearby at all times, and it can also keep your credit card, ear buds, and more on-hand and secure. And don’t forget about our mini crossbody bag The Pack if you plan on packing light. From long traveling days to hotel nights and vacation days with a baby, our products are ideal for active parents that are ready to explore San Diego with their little one.
The sunshine is coming. . . shop Tushbaby today to make life with a baby easier!
]]>Give your back and baby the support they deserve and and explore the diversity of Los Angeles, California with your Tushbaby! Here are things to do with a baby in LA to keep your agenda rolling.
Located at the eastern end of the Santa Monica Mountains, the Griffith Park area is home to many popular LA attractions like the Los Angeles Zoo and the Hollywood Sign. It’s helpful to use Griffith Park as a landmark to find a place to stay nearby as you explore the attractions and breathtaking views. Griffith Park also offers picnic areas, pony rides, golfing, and much more. With over 4,200 acres to explore, there’s plenty to do and see in Griffith Park.0
Don’t forget to bring some essentials with you: baby wipes after a pony ride, lunch and snacks for your picnic, and even a foldable changing pad in the event of a needed diaper change in the park. All your necessities can be stored in the Totebaby or The Pack for easy access. And put those 5 storage pockets in your Tushbaby to good use, too!
Adventure awaits in Los Angeles. At Adventure City you can explore acres of fun, but with a smaller, more intimate feeling than the larger parks in the area. Designed for all ages, there are activities like the Thomas The Tank™ Creative Play for your younger ones, and the Drop Zone for the bigger kids.
Disneyland is a bucket list item for families—escape reality for a day (or a week) as you explore the happiest place on earth with your little one. Navigating Disneyland with a toddler in tow is magical, but can also be a bit of a logistical challenge with all the essentials needed for a day. Be sure to plan ahead, as you’ll need to make sure the park has availability on the day you intend to visit. While strollers are allowed in most parts of the park, you may encounter times when you have to park your stroller.
Enter Tushbaby: your dream solution for those stroller-free and clingy baby moments. Tushbaby’s open-style design offers comfortable, non-restrictive babywearing, with thoughtfully placed storage pockets to keep your park essentials within arm's reach. And if you need extra space for those Mickey Mouse souvenirs, snacks, or extra diapers, check out The Pack! Our mini crossbody diaper bag can be worn around your chest, back, or around your waist for convenient access and lightweight wear.
With nearly perfect weather year-round, the LA zoo is a roaring attraction in Griffith Park. As you prepare for a day of bringing your favorite storybook friends to life, you’ll want to plan ahead. Babywearing at the zoo is a great way to promote bonding time while helping your baby soak in all the experiences around them. With four carry positions available, Tushbaby allows you to share the sights with your child when they want “up”, and transition just as easily when they want “down.” If your little one is older and feeling particularly adventurous, you can fold and flaunt your Tushbaby like your favorite purse with our Crossbody Straps that clip onto your Tushbaby’s D-rings.
Horses are amazing animals that can bring babies and adults so much joy. The Rose Bowl Riders is a non-profit, community-based equestrian center operated on a volunteer basis that connects people to horses and the great outdoors. With a rich mission and passionate members, you can witness firsthand all Rose Bowl Riders has to offer and consider giving back how you can—even if that’s just stopping by for a visit.
Los Angeles is a culturally diverse city, and it’s easy to connect with the locals as you explore the farmers markets. Most neighborhoods have at least one, and they’re a great way to try local foods, support local businesses, and learn about the city. Farmers markets can also be a cost-effective way to get some steps in and enjoy fresh air with your baby.
The Totebaby is an excellent go-to for stashing your stuff during a day at the farmer’s market. Made with buttery vegan leather, this luxurious tote also comes stocked with removable baby tote features like an organizer, changing pad, and divider pocket—perfectly designed to hold a Tushbaby or to separate your produce from your baby essentials and personal items.
Los Angeles is known for its glorious weather, and you’ll want to take advantage of it while you're visiting. Bring along a baby carrier for hiking with a baby and enjoy the views, sounds of nature, and warm sun on your skin. Tushbaby’s five storage pockets are the perfect place to store sunscreen, snacks, and even a hat or light layer to keep baby’s skin safe.
Sporting events can offer the whole family fun, but to ensure a safe and fun day, prepare for lots of walking and crowds. You’ll want to keep your hands as free as possible and your baby as close as possible. If you’re planning to attend a local sports game in Los Angeles, be sure to enlist the support of your Tushbaby—it can even be worn while seated to support your back and give your baby a plush place to sit.
Stash your baby’s essentials in the five pockets, and pack your sunscreen, wallet, keys, and other personal items in The Pack. This mini diaper bag straps across your chest, back, or around your waist for easy access to the essentials, and can be worn with your Tushbaby for quick and convenient storage. This dynamic duo is ideal for sporting events like taking baby to a football game.

Visiting local libraries is a great way to gain a sense of community. Enjoy some southern comfort food and take a trip to the Houston Public Library with your baby. You can beat the heat as you and your baby escape with stories and meet other families from the neighborhood. For babies that prefer less stimulation, the library can be a great alternative.
Babywearing at the library can make you more mobile while promoting bonding time with your baby. With the Tushbaby hip seat carrier, it’s easy to go from side carrying to sitting down with the same support as you adventure through a book together.
Escape to the oasis of the Houston Zoo as you introduce your baby to some of their favorite four-legged friends. With over 6,000 species, the Houston Zoo is one of the top-visited zoos in the country, so animal-lovers should visit the Houston zoo if there’s time.

Nestled in downtown Houston, Market Square is bustling with places to eat, shops to explore, and views to stop and take in for a while.

Pack a blanket or some chairs and soak up the greenery, friendly vibes, and sweet twang of the south.
With over 9,000 square feet of explorations, the Houston Children’s Museum is a great excursion for an interactive and fun-filled day of learning. From a Tot*Spot to a Power Science Lab, there’s something for everyone. The brain is constantly developing, so babies can benefit from learning and stimulation, even if they don’t fully understand yet. The Houston Children's Museum has a cafe on-site for snacks and special events regularly, promising something new in every visit.
For a more intimate day with your baby, plan for a picnic at Discovery Green. With a wide open field of grass, sounds of nature, and waterfront views, all tucked in the middle of the city, you can get the best of both worlds at Discovery Green. The park is a no-smoking zone with other safety rules in place to make it a family-friendly atmosphere.
When baby’s gotta go, they gotta go—so our foldable changing pad is ideal for diaper changes during a picnic. Fold it up and store it in your Totebaby or Tushbaby front pocket, along with all your other baby and picnic essentials.

]]>With endless attractions to explore in the big city, babywearing can be a lifesaver when visiting Chicago with a baby. The Tushbaby Carrier is great for exploring the city with your baby, because its built-in lumbar support evenly distributes their weight around your body to help you carry them longer and more comfortably. From carrying your baby facing in or out to taking advantage of feeding them on the go, Tushbaby’s versatile and open design offers comfort and convenience for everyone. Keep reading to learn more about things to do in Chicago with your baby and how Tushbaby products can keep you prepared so that you can plan ahead for a smooth and memorable experience.
Here are some of the top things to do in Chicago with a baby.
One thing that makes Chicago such a neat city is the mix of big buildings and spacious parks filled with greenery, art, and family fun. Located right on the water, Maggie Daley Park has endless sightseeing and exciting activities for the whole family, like a climbing wall, mini golf, roller-blade rentals, and even tennis courts. You can easily spend hours in the park with your baby, so it’s good to have your Tushbaby packed and ready—with five roomy storage pockets, you can keep your baby’s essentials and your personal items right on your hip. Parking is located nearby, too, making it an ideal spot to visit with a baby.
Even at a young age, babies can develop a special love for animals. Taking baby to the zoo is a family-friendly Chicago activity that promotes emotional and intellectual development and bonding, and is an engaging experience at any age. Enjoy exotic animals and relaxing noises as you spend the day at one of the Chicago zoos with your baby.
Babies are extremely curious, and while they may not be able to talk, they still interact with and observe their surroundings. Take a stroll through the Lincoln Park Nature Boardwalk and Sanctuary with your baby for a day to remember forever – this is a popular spot for family photos, so it might be a good time to stage a holiday card or memorialize your trip. From unique wildlife to stunning art exhibits, there’s no shortage of sights to see.
Located just a few miles west of downtown Chicago, the Garfield Park Conservatory is a massive greenhouse filled with unique plants from around the world. It's a fantastic place to stroll with your baby, especially during Chicago's colder months. With themed rooms like the Desert House and the Aroid House, there's always something new to see, making each visit a little adventure in the heart of the city.
If you want to carry your little one while keeping your hands free to share the exhibits, bring along The Snug! It’s a wrap-style attachment designed exclusively for your Tushbaby to help you carry and cuddle your little ones hands-free. It folds up to store in your Tushbaby’s front pocket, so you can transition your carrier back and forth as needed.
The Magnificent Mile is a stretch of the city, filled with historic buildings, shops, rich cuisine, posh hotels, and more. Picture strolling past the iconic Wrigley Building with a Ghirardelli ice cream in hand, soaking in views of the Chicago River before hopping on a sunset water tour.
In a city filled with so much history, you’ll want to learn more about the magnificent architecture you’re surrounded by, baby or not. But with large crowds around, you may not want to navigate the city with a stroller. Bring your Tushbaby along to help you be more mobile while babywearing around Michigan Avenue and keep your baby closer to enhance those special bonding moments.
Who knew you could pair the thrill of a bustling city with the serenity of a beach day? That's the unique charm of Chicago's Lake Michigan shoreline. Sharing this beachside experience with your baby will definitely be memorable, so it’s good to gear up appropriately to ensure it goes smoothly.
Tushbaby’s Totebaby diaper bag is a beach must-have with its sleek vegan leather design and removable baby tote features. It comes fully stocked with an organizer, changing pad, and a divider pocket to store a Tushbaby, and to keep your sandy-day essentials—like sunscreen, diapers, and wipes—handy and organized. Before diving into your day of fun in the sun, read up on taking baby to the beach to plan ahead and make the most of it with your little one.
One of Chicago's gems, the Shedd Aquarium takes you on a journey beneath the waves right from the heart of the city. Explore diverse habitats, from coral reefs to Arctic waters, and meet thousands of fascinating marine animals before heading over to their 4-D experiences. As you delve deeper into the underwater worlds, your baby will be entranced by the dazzling displays and captivating creatures, making it an educational outing and a cherished family memory.
Farmers markets are a neat way to connect with new cities and meet locals, and babywearing can make your stroll through the farmers market much more enjoyable. It’s easier to navigate the crowds without a bulky stroller, and with the Tushbaby, you can support your baby and store your things, all while saving your back. Our Totebaby is also a farmer’s market favorite because it can store all your belongings while doubling as a sustainable shopping bag.
Hitting a baseball game with your little one can be a grand slam of an experience! When booking, opt for seats with shade to ensure comfort for you and your baby—and when thinking about navigating a busy ballpark with your baby, you can bet Tushbaby is your MVP. Your baby can sit snugly on the plush hip seat whether you’re standing or seated, which makes it easier to stay comfortable during those long innings (7th inning stretch, anyone?). By wrapping it high and tight above your waist, Tushbaby allows you to stand, cheer, or climb the stadium steps seamlessly while keeping your baby close and content.
A masterpiece of art designed to show off the stunning Chicago skyline, The Bean is a must-see attraction. Nestled in the famous Millenium Park, it’s the perfect spot for a picnic day and afternoon exploring the heart of the city. Rather than relying on a picnic basket or plastic grocery bags, you can use your Totebaby to transport your spread, keeping it safely away from your everyday essentials with the removable divider pocket.
Since it’s located near The Bean, you may want to head over for a boat ride or water taxi ride on the Chicago River. Babywearing can make this activity more enjoyable as you take in the refreshing breeze and unreal sightseeing. Being out on the open water overlooking the lights and big buildings in the city is truly dazzling.
Tucked away in Glenview just outside of Chicago, the Kohl Children's Museum is a haven of interactive learning. It's tailored for kids, offering a rich array of exhibits that spark their natural curiosity. While your baby might be too young to understand everything, the sensory-rich environment provides ample stimulation and discovery opportunities, so you can nurture their passions and encourage a lifelong love of learning from the get-go.
Since your kiddo may be running around the exhibits quite a bit, you can enlist the help of our Crossbody Straps to carry your Tushbaby like your favorite purse when it’s not being used for babywearing.
The Navy Pier in Chicago is much larger than it looks, filled with indoor and outdoor activities, places to eat, music to hear, and breathtaking views to soak in on a stroll with your baby. With engaging activities like rides and a funhouse maze, you may even want to spend a night at the Sable Hotel on the pier.
Any time you travel with a baby, there’s a little extra preparation involved—but at Tushbaby, we help parents carry their kids longer and more comfortably by designing products that streamline and simplify life with a baby. As you prepare for a long day of travel or exploring, enlist your Tushbaby for extra support; our open-face hip seat carrier features a versatile design, four carry positions to support you and your baby, and five roomy pockets to keep the essentials right on your hip. With an easy on-and-off design for the “up!” and “down!” moments of toddlerhood, it’s ideal for traveling with a baby. It can even double as a breastfeeding pillow at home or on the go, making it even more functional than your average baby carrier.
Our award-winning Tushbaby Carrier helps you support your baby with a free arm, but when you bundle it with The Snug, you can babywear hands-free! Our soft wrap-style attachment is wrapped over your shoulder to form an X across your back, then buckled around your baby and your torso to keep them close while Tushbaby supports their weight. Designed exclusively for our Tushbaby Carrier, your baby will be snug and supported as you enjoy convenient, safe, and stylish babywearing. When not in use, simply tuck the Snug into Tushbaby’s seat pocket. Other products that parents love for traveling with a baby are our foldable changing pad and Pod, our stylish zipper pouch that can clip onto just about anything for pacifier storage.

From the top things to do in Orlando with a baby to products that will make traveling with a baby more manageable, we’ve got what you need for your next trip to Orlando below.
From story time to toy oranges in the Orange Grove, KidsTown offers fun for babies and kids of all ages. There’s plenty of fun for the adults to enjoy, too, not to mention the excitement and education the atmosphere will bring to your child’s experience. Located in the Orlando Science Center, KidsTown has seven sub-areas that allow kids to be active while promoting their development.
The Florida sunshine attracts visitors, so get out and enjoy it! Taking a walk with your baby is a great way to work off those vacation meals while soaking in the area's natural scenery. Some favorite parks for walking are Lake Eola Park, Langford Park, George Touhy Park, Kissimmee Lakefront Park, and Waterfront Park.
Babywearing during walks helps you bond with your baby while traveling lighter. With the Tushbaby Hip Carrier, your baby can enjoy the open design that allows them to sit face-in or face-out to enjoy their surroundings while promoting bonding time. Additionally, the Tushbaby features five storage pockets so you can load it up, strap it high and tight around your waist, and easily head out for a walk.
Unwinding with a baby isn’t taken for granted, but sometimes it takes the right scenery to really make this possible. Plan a low-key day at the Harry P. Leu Gardens, bustling with greenery, sculptures, art, and the sounds of nature. Before planning a visit, check to ensure the park is open, as it’s often reserved for events; however, they offer free admission on the first Monday of every month. If you get lost in the beauty and a diaper change calls, have your vegan leather foldable changing pad handy in your Tushbaby’s side pocket to give your baby’s butt a plush place to freshen up.
Legoland Florida is a hot theme park attraction with a cool spot to escape the humidity. After an interactive day touring the park, you can head to the gentle splash pad with interactive water features to continue the fun—and of course, the splash pad features legos, too.
Our next attraction, the DUPLO Tot Spot, is also located in the park, so if you’ve got active older kids, this is a great way to tucker them out. For long days with constant stimulation and movement, enlist our mini wearable diaper bag The Pack to carry extra diapers, energy bars and snacks, sunscreen, wipes, and a full-size water bottle. The Pack can be worn across your chest, back, or around your waist to hold an active day’s essentials close and keep your hands free.
For babies in the crawling or walking phase, the DUPLO Tot Spot at Legoland is a must-visit. This shaded and safe area offers a colorful environment for babies to explore. With Tushbaby, you can take advantage of four comfortable carry positions to explore the interactive attractions and easily pop your little one on and off with the open-style design.
Peppa Pig and her friends are some favorite characters for kids. As an extension of Legoland Florida, this theme park is full of entertainment, characters, and playgrounds for your baby to take in.
Some good old-fashioned, budget-friendly fun to squeeze into your Orlando visit is Tiny Tales. Offered by the Orange County Library, this storytime is designed for babies 0-18 months. Visit the Orange County Library website to find out local schedules and prepare to make new friends, as Tiny Tales attracts many local families on a regular basis. This activity only takes about 15 minutes, so there’s plenty of time to add additional activities to the agenda.
Wearing your Tushbaby to storytime can help you travel lighter while keeping your baby closer—it can even be worn while seated criss-cross applesauce to provide extra support for you, and a plush perch for them. If you need to transition them for a quick feed, you can simply lay them across the seat. Trust us, the other parents will be jealous.
Boat tours are a great activity with a baby, as the calming motion and scenic views can be a pleasant experience for both of you. If you want to keep baby close and have your hands free to navigate the boat and point out the sights, check out The Snug! The Snug is a soft, wrap-style attachment designed exclusively for Tushbaby to convert your carrier for hands-free use. It’s even easy to put on by yourself—just attach it to your Tushbaby carrier, place your baby on the seat, wrap the straps over your shoulders, and buckle up and go.
The humidity of Florida makes waterfront activities ideal, so grab those splash zone seats and enjoy incredible shows with your favorite animals. SeaWorld is the perfect mix of education, rides, and animal exhibits, delivering tons of fun for the whole family.
Spending time outdoors with your baby is a great way to escape while enjoying the natural beauty and open air. If you’re visiting the Orlando area, it’s worth visiting a natural spring. Most have an entrance fee and are highly trafficked, so you may need to get there early. Most parks have restrooms as well, which can be convenient if visiting with a baby (so don’t forget your Tushbaby Changing Pad!).
Disney Springs is a budget-friendly attraction since it doesn’t have a fee for entry or parking. You can babywear in Disney Springs while strolling down the scenic path between shops and dining. Check the website ahead of time to learn more about live music events, delicious food offerings, special exhibits, and shopping.

When the Snug is not in use, simply tuck it away in your Tushbaby’s seat pocket for easy access.
Diaper changes are routine with a baby, so it’s smart to keep our fold-up changing pad on hand in your Tushbaby, The Pack, or even your back pocket. From long days at the park to exploring theme parks, our vegan leather changing pad can make diaper changes on the go a little more posh and a whole lot easier.

Tushbaby is great for museum visits since it allows kids to get up and down with ease while keeping your back supported throughout the day.

Just because you have a baby doesn’t mean that life stops—amusement parks can be fun for the whole family! Just be sure to prioritize the safety of your baby and bring along the right essentials.
From diapers to wipes to breast milk to formula to blankets (did we miss anything?), there’s a lot to bring along for a long day with your baby. When visiting an amusement park with a baby, you’ll likely want to bring a stroller and a baby carrier with all of your essentials.
Before visiting, check to see what is and is not allowed in the park – some have restrictions on strollers that you’ll want to know before you get stuck with one that’s not allowed. You should also consider how long you plan on staying and park your car close to the park, if possible. Pack methodically and do your best to be prepared, but stay flexible, as life with a baby is far from predictable.
You should not babywear on rides unless the park permits it. The park should offer ride safety guidelines, which can be referenced as recommendations. However, as a parent, if you feel like something isn’t a good idea, opt out. At the end of the day, safety for your baby is the priority!
While most theme or amusement parks are kid-friendly, some may be more baby-friendly than others. The age of your baby can influence your plans for your trip to the amusement park, and especially for young babies, you may just want to stroll around. For older babies, you may want to provide them with some stimulation while enjoying extra bonding time. You may have to factor other children into the mix, so an outing to the amusement park might be about more than just you and your baby. Consider the occasion and attendees for your next amusement park adventure to help you choose the appropriate park.
Once you’ve picked the perfect amusement park, it’s time to plan out the details. Here are some things you’ll want to pack and consider when taking a baby to an amusement park.
#1. Pack essentials for baby
Going to an amusement park usually entails a long day on the go, so you’ll want to make sure you’re prepared for the unexpected and the expected. Be mindful, though, that you do your best not to overpack. Strollers can be helpful when you have multiple kids and feel like you have to bring the whole house along, but it’s wise to keep the essentials and valuables in a bag that you can carry if you have to park the stroller.
The Tushbaby Hip Seat Baby Carrier has five storage pockets, making it ideal for taking your baby on their own personal ride through the park— simply strap it high and tight above your waist and place your baby on the plush seat while supporting them with one arm. Tushbaby's supportive design will evenly distribute baby’s weight across your body and has built-in lumbar support for your back. And for hands-free baby-wearing, simply pack The Snug attachment wrap. It’s soft, easy to use, and can fit in the front pocket of your Tushbaby.
Need even more room? Complete Dad’s outfit with The Pack, a crossbody mini wearable diaper bag that can be worn as an extra bag or your go-to go-bag on days without baby. Its simple and practical design makes it ideal for comfort, and convenience, no matter who’s packing it.
#2. Go at the right time of year
The weather can make a big difference in your amusement park experience, baby or not. Whether it’s sunny outside or you’re babywearing in the rain, avoid extreme temperatures and unfavorable weather conditions if possible. You may be enticed by cheaper tickets or smaller crowds, but rest assured, going at the right time of year can make for a safer and more enjoyable day for you and your baby. If you can find ess crowded times with good weather conditions, this may be ideal for visiting an amusement park with a baby.
#3. Use a stroller
Strollers are valuable assets at amusement parks. From offering a safe, comfortable, and shaded spot for your baby to storing your belongings, strollers can be a game changer. Most amusement parks allow strollers and may even have stroller parking. However, as we mentioned, there will likely be times throughout the day when you do not need the stroller, or it will not be allowed in certain parts of the park. That’s when our Totebaby diaper bag saves the day—this buttery vegan leather tote can adapt to any occasion and comes with removable baby tote features like an organizer, changing pad, and divider pocket to fit a Tushbaby.
#4. Use a baby carrier
Whether you have a clingy baby or toddler or just an active family, babywearing can support you and your baby while keeping you close. There’s a lot to see at the amusement park, and you may be in and out of your baby carrier (just as your baby may want on and off).
Wearing an open-face carrier at an amusement park can be a secret weapon, especially with one like Tushbaby. With the Tushbaby carrier, you can support your baby in four carry positions while reducing painful spine curvature and the traditional aches and pains that come from carrying children every day. Our stylish hip seat carrier features an streamlined design with five storage pockets, a plush seat for babies up to 36 months, and a feeding position to make nursing in public more supported and comfortable.
#5. Check for rider switch passes
If the park offers fast passes or rider passes, 1) get them, and 2) make sure they can be switched between riders. After all, you never know when your baby will need mom, or want to feed, or want to sleep. Flexibility is key when doing anything with a baby.
#6. Be patient if baby gets fussy at the amusement park
We understand that patience may run low with a baby. When you add the stimulation of large crowds and unfamiliar places, it can be even harder to be patient with your baby. Preparing yourself ahead of time for potential situations that may arise can help you stay calmer when something unexpected pops up.
From nursing in public to changing diapers on the go, it’s important to keep the things you need to care for your baby accessible at all times. Our Tushbaby Hip Seat Carrier allows you to nurse comfortably by supporting your neck, back, and shoulders (yes, even on a hard park bench!), and our Totebaby diaper bag lets you have all the essentials on hand, such as a foldable changing pad made of vegan leather to keep baby comfortable during diaper changes.
And of course, don’t forget the binky! Our Paci Pod keeps baby’s pacifier clean and at arm’s reach for all the fussy moments that may come up while touring the amusement park. You’ve got this!
#7. Dress yourself and baby comfortably
Prepare for a long day that could include weather changes, lots of walking, breastfeeding on the go, and more. Dress yourself and your baby appropriately to be comfortable for your amusement park excursion, and consider bringing along a change of clothes if you plan to stay all day.
