Presented in a beautiful, reusable calico bag, our Maternal BaoBags are full of useful products to nurture women on their journeys through pregnancy and birth and beyond. They are provided as a gift through participating pre & postpartum healthcare providers.
Really loved the Baobag. I particularly enjoyed the Jack n Jill toothpaste and brochure with information about what's needed for infant oral care at each age and stage.
It was very nice receiving the sample bag. We had lots of nappies in our bag and found that very beneficial while still in hospital. Found the quality across all the brands to be equal. It was nice receiving a little gift in hospital and nice to keep the reusable bag they came in
Having had a child previously, I was aware/across most of the products I received. However Im always learning and there were some products that I didnt know about - this has reshaped my purchasing of products in the future. The bag it came in is also very cool and versatile - Ill definitely use again.
It was such a lovely and thoughtful surprise. It felt special and I very much appreciated it. Having a newborn is a challenging time, and receiving this bag was like a little 'we've got you' feeling which I thought was amazing.
It would be great to know different ways I can use the baobag in the future. Finding out about new businesses that cater for a families at the times where life can be incredibly new/busy/tricky/challenging etc like the dinner ladies initiative is great. Knowing more about smaller businesses who cater for growing families would also be great. Oh and a big thank you for the natural parenting magazine. Looove this addition. The articles are so helpful!

Thank you for the BaoBag! I particularly liked the opportunity to try out various brands of nappies without having to buy a whole big expensive bag of them. I am now keen to give the tooshies a go. I thought the magazine was really sweet although I think I would have preferred all the adds to be in the back section and the baby journal to be in the front (despite the appropriateness and helpfulness of the ads it seems strange to give your child a keep sake that has adds between each page :)The creams are also really handy because they are the perfect size top pop in your nappy bag for on the go :)Overall really liked the bag!
What an amazing idea especially for first time mums, we really have no idea what to buy most of the time as we are all learning and this bag is that perfect pick me up we need to familiarise with brands and their products.
The Baobag was a welcome surprise. We were very impressed by all the sample items in the bag that are very useful for a new parent trying out the brands for the first time. We also welcome the vouchers included, as well as all the reading material that is helpful for a new parent.
I think its a great way to bring brand awareness to expecting mothers, and great for us to be able to test products to see what does and doesnt work for our babies as every bub is different! It beats buying a whole bag of nappies/wipes only to find out bub reacts to them! And also finding new businesses/products that may be super helpful to us! Its a great idea.
The BaoBag was an absolute delight to receive as new parents as it revealed a range of brands that we have not yet been introduced to but also provided a range of useful products to try with our newborn.

Its always such a nice experience to receive a BaoBag in hospital with a newborn. Not only do the samples come in handy, they introduce a lot of products and brands that first-time parents, in particular, probably would not have even thought about yet. BaoBag also gives that pleasant sense of ooo whats this? that is a very welcome distraction to the grind that is the first few days with a newborn. Not to mention, the discounts and prizes to very good clothing etc brands give a good hit of retail therapy (either for bubs and / or mum) during a time that it is very much needed!
Loved the bag and very useful products to try. Also loved the educational information like the the jack and Jill guide for caring for little teeth and the nappy changing guide by baby love. As a second time mum its very insightful and helpful. Gives me more confidence in these areas that I thought I already knew.
It was such a nice surprise to see the BaoBag on offer at my clinic. As a soon to be mum it can be so overwhelming deciding on products as the choice and options can be overwhelming and everyone seems to give different advice and reviews. Such a wonderful idea to offer samples and a range of organic and eco friendly options to try before buying in bulk. Lots of great information, samples and advice to help make life easier and to ensure I find the best product for bub!
It's always good to receive samples and information about things that can be used by a new parent. There are so many brands out there and it's great to use a sample before doing bulk purchases. Love going through informative booklets and see what works for both parent and baby.
This is such a thoughtful and special gift for mothers to be receive. I was really surprised by the quality and quantity of this gift bag. It has introduced us to brands and products we havent heard of or used before but also reminded of brands and products we havent used since our daughter was born. I had my daughter in really strong Covid restrictions and we barely had face to face doctors appointments let alone receiving a beautiful gift bag like this. I feel really lucky to be having such a different pregnancy experience this time. Thank you for adding to my positive experience this pregnancy x

Really love this as a way of understanding all the different products available. Shopping for our impending arrival is truly overwhelming and this makes it that little bit easier to hear about and test products before buying.
Thank you for the BaoBag. I value the opportunity to become aware of different products and to trial a range of products that will suit mine and my babies needs. The brand exposure is really great as there are items in the bag that I may not have thought about or considered yet. I especially like the health promotion information from FARE. As a new and first time mother, its not just about the products but you just want to do the best you can for your baby. Having information from reliable and reputable sources is so important during these times. Thank you.
Surprised to received this during my 3d scan. As a first time mom I have little knowledge of baby products. But after receiving this bag, I have gained more insight not just about great products but also the importance of sustainability. Choosing products that are kind to the environment is always a great step towards progress.
Out of all sample bags we have received so far, this one has been by far the most useful and informative in terms of the different types of products and services available.
So wonderful to get to try a variety of products to find out what works for us. Good to see well know and not as common brands. Loved the reusable items. Have thrown the bag itself in our nappy bag with spare clothes!
