I loved to receive the samples you provided. Pregnancy and having a newborn always bring the opportunity to try new things, and having a free sample to start makes the discovery more enjoyable.

Excellent samples and extremely helpful to test products before purchasing, especially for a twin mum trying to navigate best products to purchase!

The bag was such an added bonus and helped so I didn't have to research all the products available. Sometimes having a range of products become overwhelming so it was great to have recommendations, samples and information about the product.

I had never heard of the Baobag before and was very impressed with the contents. As first time expectant parents my husband and I thought the range of vouchers, information and samples was really useful and practical.

We received three different baby bags in hospital and to be honest the quality and samples in the Baobag were the most appealing and the most useful. They were appropriate for what our baby needs as a newborn. It also seems to have a good mix of natural and sustainable products which is something we are conscious of.

It was such a lovely surprise during our scan, to be given this this gorgeous drawstring bag filled with goodies to try! A magazine to read, nappies and wipes to sample, pregnancy aids and competitions to enter - it all made me feel acknowledged and cared for as a mum. I akso think it's great that brands have this opportunity to share their products with new families.

I love the bag, I like that its in a reusable bag, which Im going to use to store things for my hospital bag. I like the variety of brands and the quality of products.

I thought the idea of the bag was awesome especially as a first time mum. Having samples of different brands is great as sometimes what works for one doesnt for others.

My midwife at my local public hospital surprised me with the bao bag at my appointment this week. It was so nice to unpack and feel a bit special getting all the cute little samples and investigating the products further. I also loved the magazine natural parent which introduced me to new ideas and a range of other brands and products that I have looked into. In terms of the samples that I received in my bag I straight away purchased more than $200 of ready made meals from dinner ladies and also investigated waterwipes and tooshies brands in more details after looking into the range of products they have available I am confident that I will end up going with these brands for baby wipes and nappies. I have added the samples to my hospital bag (I am expecting my first baby in about six weeks). I also love the cute little canvas bag itself and my midwife suggested using it to pack all the little bits and pieces that I will need for hospital which I will definitely be doing. Thanks for making expectant and new parents feel special with the bao bag and introducing a range of interesting products. I will be suggesting to my pregnant friends to look into the bao bag and whether there are distributors in their area. Love the idea, the name and the philosophy behind supporting parents keep up the good work!

This was a fantastic way to sample new brands. If I hadnt come across the Bao Bag I probably would have just stuck to what I had purchased for my first baby - but I was pleasantly surprised trying these samples of new brands. It was a lovely experience.

I am so grateful to have received the BaoBag - thank you so much. Its a great way to try products out on my newborn as I would have been set in my ways based off my experiences with my first born child but you never know what products work best for a different baby! Thank you again.

I want to say a huge thank you! I cannot express the appreciation I have for the BaoBag. It has helped me to be able to experience products I could not have otherwise afforded to test out without knowing I would use them. I think it is such a beautiful thing to receive when pregnant and feels like a little prize pack for doing the hard work of growing a baby. It has helped me to access brands and services I would not have otherwise heard of and given me the opportunity to have products for when my second baby arrives that give me a week or so to prepare and be able to stay in the 'bubble' and not stress about what I need. I love the BaoBag and what it represents, it values all mums no matter their financial situation. Thank you for thinking of a way to honour and value mums in all stages of pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I also greatly appreciate that the BaoBag highlights Australian business' and Business run by women. Thank you!

Loved that it came in a cloth bag, sustainability is always important. Who doesn't love a goodie bag? Gave me an opportunity to try brands and products I hadn't used or heard of before

What drew my interest in the BaoBag was the design and quality of the bag itself that was sitting in my obstetricians foyer. It wasnt another plastic bag and looked like a bag I would use to store other items in, in the future. I was pleasantly surprised at how many good quality products were within the bag and that everything (including the bag itself) was free! In my view, it was a very generous spread of useful samples of products, some of which I had heard of and others that were brand new to me but have now caused me to look into them for the future as alternative options for when our baby arrives. I think overall this is a great idea for new parents in particular, as we dont know what is best for our baby yet you have provided us with such a great spread of options to try, particularly if we were in the worst case scenario of not knowing anyone else around us with babies and therefore knowing absolutely nothing about useful baby products to consider. Thank you so much!

I was very happy to receive my BaoBag. It was filled with great products, some that I had never heard of before but will now I intend to purchase several that worked well for myself and my daughter.

We went to our GP for little man's first immunisation today and the nurse gave us a Baobag, L had never heard of them and it was totally unexpected but appreciated. The bag has amazing offers and samples some of the brands I knew others were totally new to me, I'm excited to try all of the samples and see what works best for us. I love that the bag itself is fabric and not plastic now that we've unpacked the contents we're going to use the bag for storing and organising our alphabet magnets - thank you so much for such a great bag it's such a wonderful way to introduce new parents to different products and services.

I was so pleasantly surprised when the ladies at my scan handed it to me and I think all of these items are super useful and things I was considering purchasing but wanted to sample first so honestly came at the most perfect time! I think this is such a cute idea for mums who are already bombarded with so much information, to actually see and touch samples is a game changer

We were chatting with the pharmacist and when he learnt of our newborn, he offered the BaoBag. This came as a pleasant surprise as we have found the range of products available for babies to be overwhelming and we didnt know where to start. The BaoBag has let us try a range of products that we otherwise wouldnt have heard of - or even wouldnt have known existed. It was great to be able to try these products at our leisure and make more informed decisions in the pharmacy aisle. Thank you!

First, I appreciate that the bag used is canvas so it can be re-used. I love the products that I've received even if they are deluxe or mini sizes as it allows me to personally try the brand and products before financially committing to a new purchase order. Keep up the good job!
