I love the samples. It's very helpful for a new mama who's still learning what products are available and safe for bub

It was such a delight to receive a BaoBag at my final imaging appointment at 35 weeks pregnant. Its helpful to be able to trial a range of products and brands and some of the items were particularly generous!

I was pleasantly surprised to receive the Bao Bag! It's been a delightful introduction to so many brands I might never have discovered otherwise. Plus, it's sparked a lot of research on my end, which I appreciate. So, a big thank you for that!

Feedback on this survey- I had to rate 3-4 items in the previous question that I had not received so I rated on my perception of the product.I had products in my bag that aren't considered in this survey. My favourite item that I recieved were the Nocktail drinks! I got a mohito and daquri- I had never heard of this brand before and they were so delicious. As I'm breastfeeding I am not drinking much alcohol. These are so tasty, will definitely be purchasing. The Baobag is a great idea, I loved receiving this from my GP. I'm a first time Mum and get overwhelmed by all the baby items out there so having some samples to try are great. I also liked receiving products that I hadn't heard of before. It could be helpful to also include a little booklet/ catalogue of all the brands that you partner with, with some advertising to other products they have. I don't have a lot of time to search for new products so would find it really handy if there was a catalogue with different brands and their products.
A fantastic idea for new mums, giving us an introduction of so many fantastic products and reputable brands. Feeling very grateful and lucky to get exposure to all of the products.

It was a really lovely thing to receive and felt really special to see those tiny nappies and start learning straight away about what I will need for my baby and which products might suit us the best. I love trying before buying so this is something that really appealed to me. I am more likely to purchase these products ongoing as opposed to trying new products I havent been able to sample.

I was so grateful to receive this and I love seeing the different products and brands. I received one for my other two children and have loved how they are different so I get to try different products

I was surprised by the quality - full size nurofen and little fess for example. So many big brands plus some smaller things I hadnt ever heard of - the inclusion of more familiar brands like Huggies or nurofen made me trust the quality of the other brands I wasnt familiar with.

When I received Baobag, it feels like our baby got the very first gift. Thank you for all the items. It gives an idea about the baby products.
Very helpful start to what is needed they also serve as prompts to research items we hadnt considered yet

Great selection and gives you the opportunity to try different brands to find what's best for your baby. Also the variety of products introduces you to new brands and ideas for things that could be useful that you didn't know about before, especially when you're expecting but don't have any kids yet

Love the idea of this bag. I've been exposed to so many brands I didn't know about. I like that the bags include items for bubs but also mum. The additions of kin post natal supplements and the nocktails were a big hit for me and I will seek these out for future purchases.

Its great to get some sample products. There are so many products now that its hard to know what suits. A few samples of some items I had never heard of was really useful.

Loved the wide variety of items in the baobag and the generous samples most companies supplied
Its great to be able to sample products before you consider buying the product. Sometimes you dont want to buy full size incase it doesnt suit. Very helpful and most of the products I have been able to try so far (except for teething product and food sample)

Was very surprised to receive one! While Ive made neutral comments on some products this is because I did not receive. As some one who pumped for 11months I wasnt aware of the cherub baby milk storage bags so Ill be keen to try those out next time! Am looking forward to trying the teething gel to see if it helps. Will be looking to see if I can find the thank you baby wipes in store

The bag was one of the best and most varied gift bag I have received. I appreciated that it was more actual items and samples, and not only brochures!! If I were to recommend one thing to add: I exclusively pump breastmilk for my babies. In my experience, it is not that "Fed is Best" or "Breast is Best", but rather INFORMED is best - and many women are not fully informed about all feeding options for babies. For example, so many women I know don't know how to successfully use a breast pump. So, maybe a brand or product to consider would be in that sphere of pumping, feeding or lactation education. Maybe Medela or Spectra? Like, people don't know that the little rubber valves need to be changed often or the pump will not work. Something small and cheap. If your bag had a valve and a little paper explaining how pumps are best kept, wow, that would probably have been a halleluja moment for me back when I had my firstborn.

Loved receiving it, the samples were a great way to try different brands to see how they worked. Love how cherub baby outlined all of their products, when to use them (what age) and what they are used for. Very informative!

I didn't even know this little goodie bag existed and i was very excited like a little kid to recieve it and try out all the products. It's such a wonderful idea, especially to include different brands - not just the usual that majority know of/use. I have definitely learnt a lot about a couple of items that I was impressed by and i don't doubt other new/existing mum's will feel the exact same - Even my husband was intrigued haha
This was truely a very special little gift to a new mum. I have not much of an idea on what I might need for my baby and this has really helped me with a few items I may need/want.
