How To Choose The Best Stroller For Your Lifestyle

April 05, 2022

When you’re planning for your baby, a good stroller is always at the top of your list, and finding the right one can be a challenge. It needs to be safe and comfy for your baby, but also easy-to-use and built to last. Especially if you’re an overwhelmed first-time parent, this might be no easy feat. 


Thankfully, it’s easy to choose the best stroller for your lifestyle, when you ask yourself a few simple questions. Here’s what you need to know!

How To Choose The Best Stroller For Your Lifestyle

If you’re finding yourself spending hours (and hours, and hours) researching strollers online, then it’s time to step back. Let’s take a minute to think about what really matters in a stroller. It needs to be safe (obviously), and it needs to fit your lifestyle. That means it needs to be able to grow with you and your family, whatever your plans. 


Here are 3 main questions to ask yourself when trying to choose the best stroller for your family. 

#1: Do I Want To Use The Same Stroller For My Toddler?

In our experience, most parents are looking for a solid, safe stroller that will grow with their child through toddlerhood. 


If that’s the case, then we recommend the Bumbleride Indie Stroller, which comes in a variety of colours.


This is a lovely all-terrain stroller that is perfect for an active family. It’s infant-compatible, but your toddler will also be safe and snug, too. 


#2: Does My Stroller Need To Be Car Seat Compatible?

Trust us: if you have a car, a car seat compatible stroller makes life soooo much easier. Thankfully, the Bumbleride Indie Stroller fits the bill, as do many other options in our Victoria, BC baby boutique. 


For example, another great option is the UPPAbaby VISTA V2 Stroller. It lets you attach the UPPAbaby MESA infant car seat with NO ADAPTER REQUIRED, or you can also use car seats from major manufacturers like Nuna or Maxi-Cosi for a convenient travel system (with the sold-separately Car Seat Adapters). You can also use the included overnight-approved bassinet on the stroller or inside your home. This versatile stroller can be used with up to two seats, car seats or bassinets for siblings or twins, and can even accommodate 3 kids with the PiggyBack Board accessory!


#3: Do I Need To Accommodate Siblings?


Speaking of siblings or twins, think about your family - including what you think your family might look like in the future. If you have more children or plan to have more children, it’s best to choose a stroller like the already-mentioned UPPAbaby VISTA V2 Stroller that can push more than one child. 


Having twins, or potentially children in quick succession? Then you'll want to opt for what’s called a double stroller. We love the Bumbleride Indie Twin Stroller, which makes it easy to stay on the move with two. With either twins or an infant and toddler, this versatile side-by-side stroller gives you a customized fit for each little one with quick access to both. It’s also easy and completely seamless to fold, thanks to the ergonomic trigger release on the handlebar!


#4: Do I Want An Active Stroller?

You don’t have to give up your active lifestyle just because you have a baby in tow. You just need to find the right stroller! If you plan to run or hike with your little one, then opt for a stroller with all-terrain wheels, all-wheel suspension, and a durable, ergonomic design. 

 

One of our top recommendations is the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 Stroller, in part because its signature one-hand compact fold, adjustable handlebar, and hand-operated parking brake provide you with the ultimate convenience. We also love that the adjustable calf support and near-flat seat recline allow you to find the most comfortable position for your child.



#5: Do I Want A ‘Downtown’ Stroller?

Finally, will you and your baby be spending lots of time downtown, running around, jumping in and out stores, on and off buses, and maybe up and down an elevator or stairs? Then you’ll need a city-friendly stroller that is as lightweight and maneuverable as it is sturdy and ergonomic. 

 

We love this compact 3-wheel Thule Spring Stroller for just this reason. It offers excellent maneuverability for the city and an easy one-hand fast, compact fold that is also self-standing to help keep everything clean (love that!). 


More Tips To Find The Best Stroller For Your Family

There are lots of baby items you can order online, which is why we’re happy to offer free local delivery on orders $110+ and free shipping on most orders over $160 (see our shipping policies here for exclusions).

That said, there’s something about talking to an expert who’s been there before, which is why we offer live chat on our website. We love helping new moms and dads find the just the right stroller for their lifestyle, so feel free to reach out, or see all our strollers first-hand in our baby boutique.

Sun Safety & Skin Care for Your Baby and Toddler

March 17, 2022

New moms keep a seemingly endless to-do list running in the back of their minds at all times, and safety is usually at the top of this list. Yes, it would be nice to have the perfect colours for your nursery or a collection of adorable (and locally-sourced!) bibs all ready to go. But safety, of course, is more than something ‘nice to have.’ It’s a necessity. 


When thinking about safety for new babies, many people automatically think about strollers and bedding, two of your most important safety purchases. And of course, all the car seats and boosters, strollers, bassinets and bedding in our Victoria boutique are all from highly-vetted, highly regarded brands. 


But in this post, we’re going to explore some less-discussed but equally important safety items for your new baby. These items will help you have peace of mind without breaking the bank. 

Safety Items For Your New Baby: Suncare

We all know that too much sun is bad for babies. But you might not all know just how bad. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, your baby’s skin is particularly vulnerable to sun damage, and there is “strong evidence that sun exposure and sunburns during childhood multiply the risk of one day developing skin cancer, including melanoma.”


Thankfully, keeping the sun off your baby’s skin has never looked so cute!

 

For example, we love these Jan & Jul Xplorer Sunglasses, which have UV 400 lenses that offer 100% UVA and UVB protection. They’re also polarized and free from BPA, phthalate, and PVC. They also undergo rigorous testing to ensure they’re safe for your child – whether they’re on your child’s face or end up in their mouth. With an optional strap to keep these beauties secure, the Jan & Jul Sunglasses are the perfect answer for protecting little eyes!



Always outfit your baby with a sun hat (make sure you get a comfortable one, so they’ll keep it on with no fuss). This Headster Bucket Hat in Fresh Bloom is particularly adorable!

 

And a protip: it might be easier to get your older child to wear a much ‘cooler’ big kid-style hat like this made-in-Canada snapback hat from Ambler Apparel!


We’d also be remiss if we didn’t mention the importance of sunscreen when it comes to protecting your baby from the sun. Of course, when it comes to sunscreen, many parents also worry about strong chemicals that may irritate the skin. That’s why we recommend both Thinkbaby Safe Suncreens and Sun Bum Baby sunscreens in SPF 50 or higher. Both these brands make great skin care products that are gentle and safe for babies, while also doing the important work they need to do. 


Skin Care 

Dovetailing with sunscreen, skin care is another safety product that may be overlooked by new parents. 


Babies have extra-sensitive skin, and most parents these days are also concerned about unnecessary chemicals in skin care. When you can, choose skin care for your baby that is free of synthetic petroleum-based ingredients, phthalates, sulfates and parabens.


Thankfully, if you do your work or find a local baby boutique you trust, you can find a great selection of natural baby skin care products like body washes, creams, moisturizers and sunscreens which are gentle and safe for baby's skin, that also feel great and smell delicious. 


For example, Só Luxury and Vancouver-based K’pure are some of our favourite skin care lines for baby AND mama (and you can never go wrong with too many GAIA Natural Baby Plant-Based Water Wipes when things get messy!).

 

Speaking of bathtime, remember that safety items for your baby can do double duty - just like this Safety 1st Bath Buddy Floating Thermometer. While it helps keep your baby’s bath water at a comfortable temperature, it also has baby-friendly soft edges. Better still, no batteries required (music to a mother’s ears!). 

 

And a bathtub spout cover protects your little one’s little head at bath time, too.


Of course, we’re only just begun to scratch the surface when it comes to baby safe items (and don’t get us started on baby proofing!). But these are a great way to get started. 


We provide safe, modern, innovative and functional baby gear and parenting accessories at our baby boutique in Victoria, BC, as well as in our online store. Check out what’s on sale now.

5 Ways to Support the New Mom in Your Life

November 24, 2021

 

While there are more than just 5 ways to support the new mom in your life, it never hurts to start small!

While starting a family brings a lifetime of joy, it can (especially for new moms!) also bring a period of stress, chronic lack of sleep, and a distinct lack of self-care.

Here at Momease, we want to help you help new moms! After all, “it takes a village to raise a child.” Here are some foolproof ways to support the new mama in your world:

Help Her (and Baby!) Get a Better Night’s Sleep

Sleep can’t be overstated… and the better a baby sleeps, the better a new mom sleeps!

Introducing the Yogasleep Nod Sound Machine and Night Light, which promotes a deeper, steadier sleep - night in and night out due to its:

  • 20 different sound options including white noise, fan noise, nature sounds, eight lullaby tracks, and more!
  • Dimmable light options that don’t interrupt sleep cycles
  • Multiple timer options
  • Small and compact design

The best part? Once a baby outgrows the Yogasleep, moms who like white noise when they sleep can move it into their own room to enjoy!

Help Her to Stay Comfy

The Frida Mom Disposable Postpartum Underwear helps new moms stay comfy without the fear of a sneeze, laugh, or sudden movement causing leaks!

These ultra-stretchy, uber-comfortable, full-coverage microfiber-and-spandex boyshorts bring dignity back to a new mom’s day-to-day: soft, breathable, and latex-free, the new mom in your life will hugely appreciate an eight-pack of these as she maneuvers through the first six weeks of her recovery.

Help Her Stay Eco-Friendly

As a new mom, it can be so hard to make eco-conscious purchasing decisions while juggling the first leg of parenthood.

Products like the AMP Bamboo Washable Nursing Pads, which are made in Canada from organic cotton fleece with bamboo, and are 100% washable, are a good gateway into the world of eco-friendly options for new moms. 

These nursing pads in particular are trim and absorbent, making them much gentler than the standard sticky disposable pads made of plastic. They’re also safe to go in the dryer!

Help Her Stay Connected

Both the Momease free blog and newsletter cultivate a space for moms to feel heard, share experiences, connect with other parents, and stay informed on Momease promotions, events, new products, and member rewards.

Nothing can replace an offline friendship, however! Even if the new mom in your life is too wrapped up in the new wave of responsibilities heading her way, checking in at least once a month (whether it be in-person or over the phone!) is a way to show that you’re thinking of her. Bonus points if you drop off some baked goods or offer to do some dishes or vacuuming while you two chat!

Help Her Stay Prepped

Ahead of the Christmas season, we can’t recommend the Momease eGift Card enough to help the new mom in your life stay prepped (and spoiled!).

Benefits of an egift card include:

  • Easy downloading
  • No expiry date
  • Its ability to be used either in-store or online for any item in the store
  • For local customers, we also offer the option of free local eco-courier delivery on qualifying orders, plus easy curbside pick up, or Canada Post shipping!

If you’re a new mom yourself, let us know: which of these 5 ways to support the new mom in your life do you most appreciate?

Postpartum Essentials for Moms

October 02, 2021

When you’re getting ready to welcome a new baby, your shopping list is probably filled with onesies, nursery decor, and bottles. But the one thing you may be missing? Postpartum essentials for the new mama!

Get ready to bookmark this page: we have lots of goodies lined up for you that are sure to save the day for the new mom in your life!

First up is…

The Belly Bandit B.F.F. Belly Wrap

The Belly Bandit B.F.F. Belly Wrap is sure to become your best friend six-to-eight weeks after you deliver!

Standing for Body Formulated Fit, the B.F.F. utilizes a corset-inspired, eco-friendly model that is super-soft, solidly constructed, and uniquely-shaped. Particularly amazing for petite and/or short-waisted women who typically struggle to find the right sizing, this patent-pending design cinches the waist, hips, and belly in a way that is comfortable and 100% natural-looking.

This belly wrap offers double compression, works to minimize the look of stretch marks, provides comfort after a C-section, supports your leg and back muscles, and adds support while breastfeeding.

Looking for your size? Head on over to our Belly Bandit B.F.F. Sizing Guide to ensure you find your perfect fit!

Healing Hollow Essential Oils Remedy Blends - Beautiful Birth

Healing Hollow Essential Oils Remedy Blends - Beautiful Birth mitigates tearing of the perineum when applied from week 36-onwards… and also helps both mom and baby after birth!

This is a favourite of doulas, who often offer this blend in a spray bottle both during birth and for postpartum care.

Also applicable to feet and/or pulse points during labour, this soothing botanical blend touts rose oil, lavender oil, and other all-natural oils that keep moms feeling (and smelling!) great.

Ripe Maternity Seamless Briefs - Black

Ahh, briefs: postpartum, is there anything better than ones that fit snugly and comfortably?

We here at Momease don’t think so! That’s why we love Ripe Maternity Seamless Briefs - Black.

These high-waisted briefs are ultra-comfortable, ultra-flexible, and even feature under-tummy ribbing for extra support. They’re perfect as both maternity and postpartum underwear thanks to their C-section support and seamless knit!

Frida Mom Instant Ice Maxi Pads - 8 Pack

Get ready to chill, moms!

The Frida Mom Instant Ice Maxi Pads - 8 Pack take “cool” to a whole new level. These two-in-one postpartum padsicles combine instant cooling therapy, absorbent pads, and full coverage in one ingenious swoop.

These hospital bag-approved maxi pads include eight instant ice pads, instructions, and a promise to feel like you’re sitting on a cloud!

Peas In a Pod Happy Mumma Nipple Butter

Last but certainly not least is the Peas In a Pod Happy Mumma Nipple Butter, which soothes, moisturizes, and heals dry and cracked skin.

This all-natural ointment is lovingly made with a blend of organic coca, shea, and mango butters, as well as healing lanolin. Its organic ingredients are perfect for both nursing moms and babies alike, especially because a little of this nourishing butter goes a long way!

While rain may seem like a far way off, it’s ideal to pick these up during the summertime before demand means they're out of stock! These stylish boots are 100% waterproof, are made of flexible rubber-lined material, and have special moisture-wicking Max-Wick technology to ensure that your child’s feet stay cozy and dry.

(Our favourite part? The Bogs Skipper Rain Boots’ cushioning footbed keeps musty odours away 24/7 thanks to having DuraFresh integrated into the sole! Talk about a win-win.)

 

MunchBox Midi6 Artwork Tray and Yumbox Original 6-Compartment Food Tray

 

The Munchbox Midi6 Artwork Tray and Yumbox Original 6-Compartment Food Tray make lunchtime both balanced and fun!

Sectioned into multiple sections dedicated to protein, whole grains, fruit, vegetables, and treats, both the Munchbox and the Yumbox Food Trays are perfect for those who want to pack bento-style without sacrificing portion sizes.

Hunter Boot Kids First Classic Rain Boots

 

Splash through the occasional September downpour with the Hunter Boot Kids First Classic Rain Boots!

A staple of Momease’s back-to-school favourites, these boots come in a multitude of colours, are specially designed for growing feet, feature a rounder foot for comfortable walking, and offer a wide upper leg to ensure that there is no struggle when it comes to popping them off and on!

This year Hunter has also released an insulated version of these First Walker Boots so little toes can stay cozy in cooler weather too.

 

Blundstones 565 - aka Blunnies!

 

We’d be remiss if the ever-popular Blundstones 565 weren’t included in this list!

Enjoy freedom from laces with these stylish, comfortable, and, most importantly, durable shoes! As a bonus, each and every pair comes with an extra set of shoe liners to guarantee that your little one can enjoy as much wear as possible… even as their feet continue to grow.

Our favourite part? That Blundstones make for fantastic hand-me-downs: not only are they a west coast staple, but they also promise to be a classic trend for years to come and are wonderfully neutral for boys or girls!

 

Jan & Jul Puddle-Dry or Cozy-Dry Waterproof Play Suits and Tuffo Muddy Buddy Waterproof Coveralls

 

The Jan & Jul Puddle-Dry Waterproof Play Suit and Tuffo Muddy Buddy Waterproof Coveralls are two peas in a pod when it comes to keeping the littlest member of your family warm and dry. For a cozier experience, you can also check out the insulated Cozy-Dry Playsuits from Jan & Jul.

Each of these fun and easily-adjustable waterproof overclothes offers elasticized hoods and waists for an easy fit, completely-sealed seams, dual front zippers, and 100% machine-washability.

Like Blundstones, these waterproof overclothes have been designed to ensure that your child can grow into them as the years go by.

 

SoYoung Toddler & Grade School Backpacks

 

Last but certainly not least is the SoYoung Toddler & Grade School Backpacks, which are the perfectly-sized for preschoolers or primary schoolers.

Roomy enough for everything your little school-goer needs (without weighing them down!), this adorable backpack is machine washable, stretchy, touts two side bottle-pockets, and is reinforced along the bottom to protect material from both spills and rips.

How To Host A COVID-Friendly Baby Shower: The Joy of Virtual Baby Showers

May 14, 2021

 

Here at Momease, we love (almost!) nothing more than baby showers… which is why we wanted to dedicate today’s blog to the joy of virtual baby showers.

Whether it be because of health guidelines throughout 2021, or simply wanting to share the special moment with family and loved ones who live abroad, there are lots of reasons why virtual baby showers should become a staple of moms-to-be worldwide.

Here are our favourite reasons to have a virtual baby shower, and how to make the occasion special even when we’re apart!


Minimal Tech (and Tech Know-How!) Required

All you need to host a successful virtual baby shower is a steady WiFi connection and a laptop, computer, iPad, or phone with video capability!

Some of the most beginner-friendly video options include:

  • Skype (Pro: free to use; Con: longer account set-up time required)
  • Zoom (Pro: free to use and user-friendly; Con: 40-minute cap on free calls)
  • Facetime (Pro: seamless video and audio integration; Con: for Apple users only)
  • Houseparty (Pro: perfect for those who wish to play virtual games with friends while calling or videoing; Cons: new, so more prone to technical hiccups)

All of these options also tout chat functions and fun background features (which make decorating a breeze!), meaning you can enjoy your virtual baby shower your way… all with little-to-no technical fuss!

Open Gifts in Real-Time

Just like an in-person baby shower, hosting a virtual baby shower means that you get to share in the excitement of opening your gifts with your loved ones in real-time.

Stuck on ideas? We’ve compiled a list of our favourite baby registry clothes, toys, and products to make creating your baby shower registry as easy as 1, 2, 3. 


Virtual Baby Shower Games


No party would be complete without games!


While the video calling app Houseparty stars built-in games for you to choose from to play with your friends and family members, there are plenty of online-friendly games that you can easily plan for your virtual baby shower.


Here are our winners:

  • Emoji Infant Pictionary, in which you and your loved ones take turns typing out emojis that correlate to a baby-related phrase or action! Think of it like internet charades.
  • The Best (and Worst!) Parenting Advice, perfect for playing with other parents or parents-to-be. Bring on the giggles!
  • Good Old Fashioned Card Games, such as dominoes, flash cards, or Go Fish. PlayingCards has them all!
  • Don’t Say Baby, a classic baby shower game that is easily converted to a virtual format. The rules are simple: if anyone catches you saying the word “Baby”, you lose!

Virtual Baby Showers: The Possibilities Are Limitless!

As we’ve all become accustomed to a new way of connecting, and celebrations have taken a shift towards virtual gatherings, there are still plenty of ways to make this special time in your life just as exciting as an in-person shower!


One of the easiest ways to take your shower virtual? Setting up an online baby registry that helps support local too! Sign up for a Momease Baby Boutique Registry where you can receive thoughtful, local, and quality gifts for your new arrival, all while supporting Canadian women-led businesses.
