I miss live events. For one reason, I can't socialize with Kim anymore! She's one of the sweetest faces to see at events!
Kim helps exhausted and overwhelmed parents teach their little ones how to fall asleep and stay asleep all by themselves! Kim's a sleep consultant, aka a miracle-worker. She's the owner of Babes & Beyond: Pediatric Sleep Consulting, the Director of Mentorship and instructor with the Family Sleep Institute.
I asked Kim if she could share some tips about transitioning from 2 naps, to 1. Kim has some tricks ..read more

I've talked about rear-facing before. In fact, I've done a few videos on the topic (check it out here) and talked about it to I-don't-know-how-many parents at car seat clinics. Legit, it's one of the most important things you can do to keep kiddos safe in the car!
I've talked about it so many times, I have a go-to script. It goes something like this....
"A frontal collision is when your car crashes into an object, like a tree or oncoming vehicle. It's the most common and the most dangerous type of collision. During a frontal colli ..read more

I started Bundle Baby when my twins boys were babies and my daughter was 3.
Bundle Baby was Inspired by my Human Babies
In 2017, I had an idea of a jacket that fit "backwards" in the car seat. I took my idea to a seamstress and she made the first two "Car Seat Jackets" (Today, I call it the 3-in-1 Blanket.). I learnt to sew and started my first e-commerce store. Looking back, I had no idea what I was doing (honestly, I still don't).
My babies became toddlers, so I created a Toddler Car Seat Poncho . Have you noticed a theme? Yes, I'm one of "th ..read more

I love what Amy at 123 Petits Pas has created! Her programs (in-class or virtual) introduce french to kids 0-9y with a fun interactive experience for both child & parent (yes, even if the parent doesn't speak french) so you can learn French together!
My kids & I have participated in Madame Amy's class online and I can say first hand that her classes are sooo fun! She plays music, sings songs, has games & dances. Keeping two 3 year old boys attention is a challenge and they stayed engaged the entire time! She's a miracle-worker!

Winter jackets safe for the car seat... do they exist? Yes, but there aren't many and most winter jacket are not safe in the car seat!
Experts suggest removing the jacket in the car seat and using a blanket to cover the child. If you're a Canadian parent, you probably rolled your eyes just now. "Really, you expect me to remove my child's jacket in -20C weather?".
Why are some jackets unsafe in the car seat?
First, let's talk about why jackets a hazard in the car seat. A winter jacket is warm is because it's filled with little pockets ..read more

"Isn't your child too big to be rear-facing? It looks dangerous for their legs."
If you decided to keep your kiddo rear-facing longer, you might've heard this.
Well, I'm here to debunk the myth that rear-facing is dangerous for your toddler's leg. Click here for the video!
First, it's important to point out that car seats are designed protect kids in FRONTAL COLLISION (when your vehicle is stopped by something).
It's the most dangerous and most common type of collision. In a frontal collision, everything moves towards the front of the vehicle. The driver/passenge ..read more

4 years ago, if someone told me that I would own a business that sells baby products & ponchos, my head would hurt from rolling my eyes so hard. No joke. 10 years ago, if a psychic had told me that in 2020, I would be designing clothing, I would've told her to take her crystal ball back to Lala-land!
In a previous life (not really, but it feels that way), I was in engineering. That seems to fit, right? I'm a problem-solver, I love designing and I'm always thinking how to make things better. I thought I did a 180 in my career, but really, my two careers aren't THAT different. I used to ..read more

Photoshoots are so fun! Luckily, I've only worked with fantastic photographers, parents & babies (& some fur babies), so far. I decided to document a recent photoshoot to take you behind the scenes of a typical photoshoot.
Come hang out with us!
Typically, we meet in the morning and the photographer takes a few still photos of the product before moving on to some lifestyle photos with the family.
Since Bundle Baby products are for colder weather, our photoshoots are typically in the fall or spring and obviously, outside.
For photos with  ..read more

This is a big step and I couldn't be more excited! Finding a manufacturer is so hard! I've sent so many emails and voicemails that were never answered. One day, I posted something in a Ladies Who Lunch FB group and the stars aligned. The Bobbins Production is new to Ottawa (I'm in Ottawa!) and they answered my email!! Not only did they answer, they agreed to take on the production of my beloved 3-in-1 Blanket.
For 3 years, I've been making my blankets myself: cutting on my kitchen floor and sewing in a tiny office I shared with my husband.
Check out how many laye ..read more

If your baby is closing in on their first birthday, you’ve probably started thinking about their next car seat. As a mom of 3 and a CPST (Child Passenger Safety Technician), I’ve realized there are a few must-have features. If you’re shopping for a new convertible car seat, I hope this helps your decision.
What is a convertible car seat?
A convertible car seat is the next seat after the infant car seat (“the bucket”). The convertible car seat was originally designed for a toddler, rear-facing & front-facing. Today, some convertible car seats include a position for infants &am ..read more
