As a first-time parent, I felt overwhelmed by the numerous options for every item on the registry, but Katie completely put me at ease. She created a detailed report showing which items to swap, which to remove to save money, and new items to add that I hadn’t even considered. The service basically paid for itself! Her knowledge of baby items is invaluable, and her service made me feel so much more confident in my choices.

I loved everything!! Katie was very efficient. As soon as she got me in, she started working on my list and I got the email with the updates very quickly. The updated list had everything I needed for my family situation and I have actually been changing/purchasing the products. I loved that she checked in on me after a few days so I would actually start changing my registry, because it was something that I kept putting off.

Katie was a big help in thinking about our current lifestyle, what we were going to get as hand-me-downs, and things that you just don't think about as a first time parent, and how all those things impacted what we actually needed for baby. Katie had a really great ability of making recommendations, but not making us feel like we HAVE to take them. This also helped me feel more confident when I got lots of opinions from others!

Here’s how easy it is to go from overwhelmed to confident.
Have your baby registry mostly set up (it’s okay if it’s not perfect yet).
Pick a time that works for you, it only takes a minute.
We’ll meet 1:1 over Google Meet and go through your list together with instant recommendations.
Update your registry with your new list, then send it to friends and family.
As a mother of two daughters and an aunt to fourteen nieces and nephews, I understand the complexities (and joys!) of preparing for a new baby. I’m dedicated to helping modern, busy parents prepare their lives for the changes that come with a baby.
I created The Baby Planner to provide the resources and information you need to get fully prepared for your baby's arrival.
I recommend that your baby registry be mostly complete before you book a review. I totally understand that selecting baby products can be really overwhelming, and sometimes, you just hit a stopping point and can’t continue. I’m here to help! If you're early in the process and want advice on a specific product or two, you can book a lighter/shorter session here: 1:1 Consultations
I recommend Babylist because it is the easiest for you as a parent to navigate and you can add items from any online retailer.
Katie, our founder, does all of the reviews personally to ensure the best quality assessment tailored uniquely to your family.
If saving money is your goal, and especially if you have a cluttered registry, we can often save you more than the cost of this service! Sometimes, if a registry is really bare, we may need to add cost to our recommendations to make sure you have the basics covered. However, we also offer options and advice for buying items secondhand, which can really save you money.
Absolutely! However, that is a different service to this one. This service requires an existing baby registry. If you’d like a “Done-For-You” baby registry you can find more information about that and all of our premium maternity concierge services here.
