Ingenious Diaper Bags

We’ve already told you about the Studio Cherie diaper bag that we love so much. Now we’ve come across three more diaper bags that might just be your best travel companion.

The gr8x Baby Traveller Deluxe Diaper Bag is a unique diaper bag and baby changing station all in one. Ok, function over fashion here, but it’s pretty clever. It has 3 layers of pockets that hold everying you need for changing, and it’s perfect for parents who want a light weight, practical and organized diaper bag. It retails for around $80 USD.

The Baby Sherpa Diaper Backpack has everybody talking, at least in Hollywood. Brad Pitt has one (which means it’s hot even if it’s not) and these bags were selected to be included in the celebrity swag bag at the Emmy’s last year.

What is great about this bag is that it has a soft-sided cooler uniquely integrated into the backpack. The cooler is large enough to hold snacks, medication and 6-8 canned beverages. It also has an oversize changing pad, a first aid compartment, and ergonomically designed padded shoulder straps. It retails for about $90 USD, and is available for shipping to Canada.

Finally, because we know some dads are never going to carry the gorgeous girly girl diaper bag you’ve just spend a fortune on, there’s something called the DadGear Diaper Vest. Just as the name implies, this is essentially a wearable diaper bag, perfect for the man who won’t be caught carrying anything that even remotely resembles a purse. The vest has strategically placed pockets that hold all of the baby-care essentials that you’d put in a diaper bag, including a changing pad hidden in the back. All in all, not a bad idea, but where do you “wear” the dirty diapers? For $82 USD, it will give dad something to talk about over the water cooler.

Studio Cherie Diaper Bag

We’re all over the Studio Cherie diaper bag. What’s so great, you ask?

  • The back side of the bag opens up to become a changing pad that is designed to fully cover changing pad tables found in public washrooms.
  • When you open the changing pad, your wipes, plastic bag pocket, and built-in bag hanger are at your fingertips.
  • The bag and change pad are machine washable.
  • The bag is made from a Crypton fabric which is designed to permanently resist bacteria, moisture, stains and odors.
  • There is a side pocket for bottles, sunglasses, etc.
  • Strap adjusts from 14-49 inches to accommodate your carrying style.

Check out the bags at studiocherie.com, where they retail for $178 USD. Or, if you prefer, you can purchase them from Beverly Hills Luggage on Rodeo Drive…for a whopping $350 USD. Go figure!

GoGo Kidz Travelmate

So your tot has turned two. The free ride is over. You’re paying for that empty seat beside you now. The ‘fasten your seat belt’ sign is turned on. You buckle your little one in, and notice the seat belt goes up to his armpits. How safe can that be? You thought about shelpping the car seat, but with 3 suitcases, a baby, a stroller and a carry-on…you get the picture.Enter the gogo Kidz Travelmate. It’s a car seat attachment that allows the seat (and child) to be wheeled through the airport just as you’d wheel a suitcase. It can easily maneuver down the aisle of an airplane and can remain attached to the car seat without interferring with the seat or the safety belt. You can rent it from us for $5/day or $25/week (weetravel.ca)

Infants and toddlers deserve the same protection that is provided to other airline passengers. The cool gizmo makes it easy to take the car seat and keep the kids safe.

In the Pocket Baby Chair Harness

Here at Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals, we love everything about this baby chair harness except for the fact that it’s not yet available in Canada (at least as far as we know). The site isn’t in English, but from what we can tell, this very cool harness hangs over a chair and also fits into your pocket. This pocket seat works by attaching to an ordinary cafe or dinner chair. You can use it from the time your child can sit upright by him- or herself at approximately 6 months until 2 years of age. When not in use, the “pocket seat” folds into an integrated pouch.
