Best Baby & Kids Gear in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (What We Own)

Nuna Convertible Car Seat

We have 4 of these, two in my car and two in Tommy’s, since it transitions from the infant to toddler to forward-facing little kid phase. Although if the Nuna rotating car seat had been an option when we purchased our Nunas, I would probably do that.

UppaBaby Vista Stroller

Very pricey, but I promise it’s worth the investment if you have multiple kids. We’ve used this non-stop for six years. First with the bassinet, then with the rumble seat and now with the rumble seat + piggy back board. Here’s my full review of the UppaBaby Vista stroller.

WAYB Pico Forward Facing Car Seat 

We now have 4 of these (granted, I was gifted the first two by the brand, but then I bought more since we love them so much). We have two for when we travel to Utah to see my family, one for my nanny’s car and one for my in-laws’ cars. I wouldn’t want it as our main car seat but for travel or those driving the boys less often, it’s great because it’s small and portable. If you plan to travel with it often, get the Pico Car Seat carry bag. I’m getting the Pico Car Seat cupholder on sale since we always have long car rides in Utah.

Thule Jogging Stroller 

If you want to run with your kids, snag this while it’s on sale. I like it better than the BOB Jogging Stroller since it rides smoother and the handle height is adjustable. Read my Thule stroller review for more pros and cons.

Nanit Bundle

We’ve used this baby monitor ever since we had Thomas and bought a second one for Charles. have one in each boy’s room and one in Boone. I love being able to check on them from anywhere and the nightlight feature is great for middle-of-the-night feeds. We use the travel kit all the time, but we never used all the breathing bands, so if you want just the monitor, it’s cheaper to buy the Nanit from Amazon.

Solly Wrap 

My favorite carrier for the itty-bitty baby phase. (Ahhh, I miss my tiny newborns!) It takes a little bit of practice to figure out how to use it, but then it’s super comfortable and it’s great for taking on-the-go since it compresses into a small ball that easily fits in a diaper bag or mom purse.

Baby Bjorn Bouncer & Bjorn Mini Carrier 

Once my boys moved out of the Solly wrap, I loved the Baby Bjorn Mini. The Solly became difficult once he got a little bigger, but the regular Bjorn carrier felt intense. I liked this from like 3-9 months and then I used the bigger Bjorn after that.

The Nordstrom Sale combines the mini carrier with the bouncer, which is great since we loved both. The Bjorn Bouncer is much better than typical giant baby swings since it’s easy to move around and it collapses flat. Plus, both boys liked it better than the electric swings we were gifted.

SlumberPod 

This must if you travel with little ones and have to share a space. It blacks out their crib so you can have the lights on and don’t need to stumble around them in the dark. We used it with both boys when traveling and even when moving before their rooms were set up. Countless frineds have borrowed it too, so you’ll be a popular mom-friend if you have one.

Cybex Libelle Lightweight Stroller 

We had this for a few years, but it was awful, despite the 5-star reviews. It feels so cheap and it never sat the boys up enough. This looks like a newer version, but I still wouldn’t risk it. If you need a travel stroller, get a Zoe Stroller instead.
