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.

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.
This goodie bag was so great and a pleasant surprise. I received some fantastic samples which clear up the confusion between products and brands and lets you try different items before purchasing huge quantities. I love that there are products for mum and bub. I love the information cards and booklets too which make me feel informed and up to date with what is available to myself and baby. Thank you.

What a thoughtful gift to give to a mother when they are at their most vulnerable after giving birth. This was especially kind and thoughtful for me as I had an emergency c section and I was feeling very emotional and the BaoBag really cheered me up. It was also a great idea because I continued to use the products and saved me having to research or even remember what I might need for my baby. Thank you

First pregnancy in Australia just moved from NZ.This Baobag is so thoughtful and the products all amazing.Such a lovely gift to receive after my first check up in Australia.

After giving birth the baobag was definitely a pleasant surprise. Whilst the hospital does provide nappies, formulas and wet wipes as we take in these precious moments we tend to forget about self care. Vitamins, healthy eating and bonds Milestone cards definitely help with ensuring we not only keep our physical bodies but minds healthy too!

As a first time parent I found this gift bag very useful and were able to utilise the items in the bag and also the bag itself I found it to be very practical and well put together gift pack with plenty of information also provided in the pack
I was very surprised to receive such a qualitative bag with actual useful sample, for before and after birth. I think all the brands/products are relevant and qualitative. The magazine is also a great source of I formation, especially for new parent like me.
