In the event that you find yourself with a new baby, I cannot highly enough recommend one of these.
It is called a Kylee.
Kylees are quiet and gentle enough not to disturb tubes and wires and can sit with a baby for long periods of time.
Kylees are very efficient at changing diapers, dressing, and reading books to babies so mom can shower.
Kylees are also capable of entertaining crowds of preschoolers and babies while breakfast is being made.
Seriously, no one should ever, ever, ever have a baby without a Kylee!
(In case you are interested in some actual baby gear recommendations, I recently reopened my Amazon Associates Store and have my favorite baby books, toys, parenting resources and more all in one convenient place for you! Check back often as I am continuing to add resources for other ages and stages!)
We can buy baby gear but we can't buy a Kylee! Priceless.
