Thank you for the pleasant baby surprise. To have some quality samples and wonderful products on- hand was absolutely appreciated at such an important moment of my life.

Loved the material the bag was made from and the fact it has a pull string. Ill definitely reuse it for baby things. Its a really lovely gesture to receive this - thank you. Its very helpful to start familiarising myself with the kind of products available and for a bit of self care for myself!

This bag gave us a good idea about products available to us and their usefulness. We have not bought anything for the baby at all yet but will use this bag as a starter guide when we do start shopping.

I think the Baobag has been fantastic to expose me to many brands and baby products I had never heard of and probably would never hear about. I think many of these products will be helpful in my parenting journey.
It has been so good receiving all the little samples because some of the things I received I probably wouldnt have purchased myself if I seen them on the shelf however now I have sampled them there are things I will definitely be buying! Its also helped as a first time mum because there are things that I didnt and probably never would have thought of however have been super helpful to have.

Each visit to the OB is nerve racking as you always want everything to be okay and good news. To have a great appointment and then be gifted a BaoBag on the way out put such a step in my day! I had a great time going through all of the goodies and informations, thank you

I love the material of the bag and the variety of items inside. The size of the samples is large enough to try most things a few times to get a good idea if we like them.

It's a generous package with useful samples. The info inside seemed to be more products than services and it could be good to include some additional services.

Thank you for the samples, it's lovely that we can try products and not spend money on products we end up not using. I love that I can pop the tiny products in a small bag to carry with me everywhere just in case.
So thrilled with the quality and variety of products in the bag. It was much improved from when I received a bag with my last child in 2018. Loved that there were so many products included for mum & family as well as baby. Very considerate & generous.

Loved the bag. Received it from the pharmacy when I was in there getting medicine for my sick newborn. Was such a welcome gift and loved all the products in it. I love to get the samples as I can try things out before committing to buy the bigger size of things. My favourite are the wipes & nappy samples - so handy to test out these every day items before committing to purchase.

I love the idea of the BaoBag and think it's a wonderful gift to help new mums or mums-to-be feel special. I just have a few ideas:1) I had to request this bag from my OBGYN, it is perhaps an opportune time to actively promote this bag in OBGYN clinics/private hospitals with posters or a flyer so mums don't miss out. I learnt about it through my own research on social media.2) I love the waterdrops however it would be great to have edible samples too, particularly Mini + Me, Milky Goodness cookies, Pinky's Boobie Foods, Hydralyte, other lactation/breastfeeding/pregnancy nutritional items, or vouchers for these companies.3) It would be great to have some information on regular annual events/expos, particularly the PBC Expo and One Fine Baby Expo. I already know about these through my own research however they are great places to visit for mums who are feeling overwhelmed and unsure.4) I'd love to see more maternity clothing pamphlets/information/vouchers in the bag, particularly as I have just received the prenatal bag.5) The belly oil was wonderful but I think what mums really need is some self-care/pampering, so something like a pregnancy-safe shower steamer or bubble bath item or facial cream... something that a new mum can look at and go, "ooo, that will be so lovely to use".

I think its lovely to receive this in hospital, especially for your first baby. Its nice to try the samples out & see if they suit your needs, especially if you havent tried that particular product before. I also love the bag it is presented in & use it again for other things.

Great bag. We loved receiving it. Super kind of the lady at the pharmacy. So many quality products and things I'd never heard of before. Great way to get different products out to the community
This bag is a great introduction to products and provides a lot of good information particularly for a first time mum who doesnt have many people around her how has young children so had to rely on getting information else where rather than through family and friends

Receiving a Baobag was such a delightful surprise! It's a fantastic way to discover new baby products and essentials. The bag itself is a thoughtful touch, perfect for storing baby items or using as a diaper bag on the go.

I think its a great thing to offer. This is my fourth child and I learnt about brands I havent before which was refreshing.

When I first got handed the bag I did think oh no it's going to be full of junk mail. I was really pleasantly surprised. I really like the bag and spent the afternoon reading the magazine.

The baobag was a great surprise to receive from Haven after our scan, and it is a great starter tool into the service and offering that Baobag provide. I will definitely be recommending this website to my friends and family as it is a great and dependable tool to help parents of babies!
As a first time parent, its great to see the range of products that are available and what come as recommended from experts in the field. There is a wide network of information out there and sometimes its over whelming so to be able to try out small bits is awesome
