Nuby Potty Seat Review

I must admit, I am scared....its time to potty train my daughter. I am so ready to be done with diapers :)   but I am sure its lot more difficult than what it looks like. I recently read an article on babycenter. It talked about ABCs of potty training:


  • A. Assess your child's readiness — and your own

  • B. Buy the right equipment

  • C. Create a routine

  • D. Demonstrate for your child

  • E. Explain the process

  • F. Foster the habit

  • G. Grab some training pants

  • H. Handle setbacks gracefully

  • I. Introduce night training

  • J. Jump for joy — you're done!


  • First of all after seeing its the time and my daughter started showing signs of being ready, I had  to choose a right equipment. I wanted something simple and easy to clean. I tried Nuby Potty Seat and liked it. The height is perfect and I made my little girl comfortable with it pretty fast.

    Nuby Potty Seat

    Choosing the right seat is very important to overcome the anxiety some children feel about the grown-up toilet – some fear falling into it, others dislike the loud noise of the flush. Though at our home, its the other way round, my daughter loves the noise of flush and she would keep flushing over and over again :)


     Removable basin

             I like that the potty seat has a non-skid base and is very comfortable for her. The removable basin is easy to empty and super easy to clean.

    Some children are ready to start potty training as early as 18 months, while others aren't interested in the process until after the age of 3. Most of y friends started potty training when their children are about 2 and a half. So if you think your child is ready and are looking for a potty seat, I would highly recommend Nuby Potty Seat and you can buy it at one of these retailers:

    Nuby Medical Kit Review



    Is this season bad or is it just me?  Our little girl had a bad round of cough and cold recently and this Nuby Medical Kit was a life saver. This has everything you will need in a Medical kit:

    1. Sure-Dose Medicine Dropper: Ensures accurate dosage measurement in both teaspoons and milliliters (ml).  We had to give my daughter her medicine every few hours. I could wash it off easily after use and it dried up fast before her next dose.
    2. Medi•Nurser : Provides an easy and accurate way to administer oral medicine or vitamins to your baby. I love this and regret it not getting it earlier. My daughter is not a fan of her vitamin drops but loves taking it this way. It looks like a small bottle and would be so much easy with bottle fed babies too.
    3. Nasal Aspirator with Ear Syringe: Soft tip is safe and gentle to baby’s nose and ears! When our little girl had her recent cold, she could not sleep because of nasal congestion.  We used this to clear her nose before nap time (even though most kids don't like this), but it gave her immediate relief and she could sleep better.
    4. Sure-Dose Medicine Spoon:  It insures accurate dosage measurement in both teaspoons and milliliters (ml). The spoon was designed for a child to hold, enabling them to take their medicine themselves. No mess or waste, and a Sure-Dose is given simply and effectively. I have not tried it yet with my daughter. But as she is getting more and more into " I want to do it on my own " phase , I see using this in future.
    5. Digital Thermometer: Lightweight and measures your child’s temperature with clinical accuracy in 30 seconds. It comes with a protective cover.
    6. Nail Clipper:The clipper and its curved edges are scaled down for ease of use on small child's nails.
    I like this kit a lot and would highly recommend it.  It has all medical need supplies in  it. Its a must for every baby registry. So if you like it and want to buy one for you or for a friend having a baby, you can buy it at one of these retailers:

    Nuby Pacifinder Review



    My daughter still takes her pacifier occasionally. But with pacifier comes the risk of germs as when she is playing outside or we are at mall she would sometimes drop it and would try to take it right back again :(  I used to  wash it several times. Sterilizing and frequent washing of pacifiers significantly lessens the risk of your baby picking up harmful germs.  I also try and keep more than one clean pacifier on hand. So when I tried Nuby Pacifinder , I knew its the best I can do to keep my baby girl away from germs.









    Nuby Pacifinder keep your baby's pacifier secure and sanitary! The clip ensures that your baby’s pacifier will always be within easy reach and not on the floor. It works with any pacifier with a handle. Simply close the velcro strap around the handle of your baby's pacifier and attach the clip to their shirt or bib. It's safe for your baby and easy for you.





     Its hard to loose your pacifier once you have bought Nuby Pacifinder but if you somehow still drop it and are on the go , you can use Nuby's Pacifier & Teether Wipes


     Available in a variety of fun and colorful prints at these retailers:

    Nuby Tub Time Turtle Toy Review




     When  I was a new mom, bathing my baby was like a huge undertaking. It eventually became easier and now its more of a fun time :)
        My daughter loves her bath time.  Warm water helps relax her especially during this time of year. Bath Toys can make bath time even more fun for toddlers. So when I got the chance to review Nuby’s  Tub Time Turtle I was excited and knew my daughter would love it.  Tub Time Turtle is another fun and interactive bath time toy from Nuby .




    waterfall fun



     I have bought a tons of bath toys and can tell you for sure that Tub Time Turtle is the best quality.  Tub Time Turtle floats on the water’s surface so it is always within easy reach. Lift Tub Time Turtle out of the water to experience waterfall fun!







    Its recommended for kids of age 9+ Months. But its so much fun at every age. My baby girl loves it and adorably calls it  "tutl"


    Caution: Never leave your baby unattended in the bath, not even for a few seconds. That could be all the time it takes for your baby to get into difficulty in the water.

    You can buy this fun and colorful Nuby Tub Time Turtle at one of these retailers:

    www.amazon.com
    www.cookieskids.com

    Nuby Teether Tugz Review




    Teether Tugz

    You cannot know how long or how uncomfortable the teething process will be for your baby. My baby girl did not get her first till she was almost an year old. As a parent , I was looking forward for this milestone to happen as I was freaking out that without teeth she could only take puree foods.

         The vast majority of babies sprout their first teeth when they're between 4 and 7 months of age.  With this milestone comes symptoms that can be like :
    • Drooling
    • Gum swelling
    • Irritability
    • Refusing food
    • Sleep problems
    My little girl gets  runny noses, or a fever just before a new tooth arrives. Now what can we do to ease  baby's discomfort? Nuby understands how important it is to make this milestone easy for little babies. When I got the chance to review Teether Tugz, I knew my baby girl would love it.







    checking out teether tugz :)

    Nuby Teether Tugz toys are playful characters that are cuddly and comforting. The mix of different fabrics make them super soft for your baby to cuddle, while the textured teething parts on the end of their ears help soothe and comfort teething toddlers.







    she is all thrilled after using the teether






    I love how Nuby makes these so colorful that babies can play with it for hours and once they are done, you can wipe it clean. Since teething is long process and can start early , Nuby has made it safe to be enjoyed as early as 0+ Months, but trust me this is going to be with them for long even after they are done teething.
    Teether Tugz makes me happy :)


       My little girl has still some teeth that have still to pop out and as soon as she got hold of this toy, she knew that what part is fun to be chewed on.
    You can buy your own fun looking Teether Tugz at :
