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!

I was so excited to recieve this Bao Bag - I'd felt like it was my birthday and I'd been given a gift! It was great to use products that I probably wouldn't have bought otherwise - those I wasn't interested in I was able to pass on, and those I loved I will definately purchase again. I will be sending future mum to be's info on your Baobags, I think they are fantastic Thankyou! Us mums need all the help we can get :)

I thought it was a welcome surprise at my scan. I really liked looking through all the samples as it opened my eyes to alternatives to what I was using (eg I would never have come across water wipes which Im so impressed with! Thank you!).Additionally being recommended a service like Dinner Ladies has been so helpful for my family. This bag was a definite welcome surprise and gift.

What a great bag! The calico bag itself is beautiful and so useful! I thoroughly enjoyed the contents of the bag. I am an experienced mum having 4 older children and then a 10 year gap before having another sweet baby. Over all the years products change and so it was lovely to be able sample different products from what was available so many years ago. Also, being an older mum, I find that a lot of companies appeal to younger mums but I found the baobag catered for any age mum and I felt very included in the 'new mum' category. Thank you for making this older mum feel special!

Love the bag! Especially when youre in hospital and may have forgotten something like nappies! Love the snacks for my toddler when she came to visit at the hospital stay. I super loved the bag that all the products came in as its stylish and completely reusable for other things, which is super!

It was such a special moment to receive the BaoBag at the end of our 20 week scan. It felt like a real milestone - and such a surprise and delight moment. There are so many great products to try and such handy ones for the rest of pregnancy as well. Loved it!

It was a surprise to receive and made me smile straight away. When I opened it I was excited to get our first baby items. I also received a natural parent book which has been any interesting read so far. Again thank you.

I love the bag and the fact i can sample a range of different products for bubs without breaking the bank. It's great to be able to trial to see what you like and so convenient for first time mums

The bag is such a nice gift to receive when arriving at the hospital room after having a baby. Its so exciting opening everything. The calico bag is also awesome to reuse. I use the bag to section items in my nappy bag so use it all the time.

The BaoBag was a beautiful surprise. I am keeping the bag to store our babys skin care. I enjoyed all the samples and leaflets provided. I found they have a good variety of different brands I hadnt heard of and will now invest in. I also found the information provided on the leaflets and brochures to be extremely helpful as a new mother to be. Thank you for providing these great samples and information

Going to our first Antenatal appointment was very nerve racking and exciting as this is our first baby. We didnt really know what to expect and the whole process of having a baby can seem so overwhelming with the amount of new things to know and learn. Getting this goodie bag was extremely unexpected but so comforting. As soon as we opened the bag we were exposed to products we had never thought we would have needed before and some which were a welcomed relief. Going through pregnancy and growing a human is already a big job but getting gifted this bag of ideas and helpful products helps make it seem a little less overwhelming! So thank you

I thought the bags give a great range of products, especially if you are a new parent. It gives you the ability to try several different products. It also has products you might not know about if you haven't used them before. It was great coming home from hospital and getting to go through the bag to see what goodies we received. We will definitely being using all the products we received.

Receiving the bag as we left hospital with our first child was like receiving a warm, comforting hug. It gave us something to unpack when we got home and there was much excitement as we read about each item. We received a bedhead hat for baby which is awesome and will get much use here in sunny qld. We also received fess nasal spray which is not something wed thought to stock in preparing for babys birth so that was most appreciated. I also received a sample nipple soothing product which again, is a nice way to acknowledge the support and care parents need not just Bub. And the reusable bag that everything came in is fantastic. Itll be great as a portable toy bag and i love that it can be washed and reused for many different purposes. The BaoBag was unexpected but brought great joy and I appreciate whoever began and creates these initiatives. Any opportunity to try before you commit to buying is fantastic, particularly when it comes to babies and knowing not one size fits all. Thank you.

It's a great mix of samples and it has items that I hadn't heard of that seems quite reliable and natural for my baby. It's great for me to sample and experience the product before purchasing. There are so many products and items on the market that it can become quite overwhelming for a new mum, mixed in with the many opinions from family and friends. This is a very non invasive way for me to read about the products and sample them and decide for myself if it is something that suits our family.

Great to receive a variety of products and see what exists on the market. A few things were very useful to have in case we needed them. EG. Rite aid - Hydrogel breast pads I used in the first day after birth, loved them and bought a number of packs in the first few weeks. I wouldn't have known they existed if they weren't in the pack.
