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.
Its great to receive a sample bag to try products before you buy them as they dont all work for each baby/family. And it lets you try more products that you wouldnt otherwise try. It would be nice to have a wider variety of things to try. I didnt find the product catalogues useful as there is already so many things marketed at parents. Where as I will try the products from the bag which is more likely to lead to increase in sales for the company if people like them
I adore this bag! I wish I received something like this in my first pregnancy. Amazing products and exposure to brands
I was really excited to receive the BaoBag from my obstetrician this week. My baby is due in a couple of months and I am doing lots of reading and research about baby products and brands. I am keen to try out the samples I was given. I am also really pleased that there were some brands included that were new to me - especially the Cherub Baby products I am really interested in ordering some of their products to try out. Looking forward to the arrival of my baby!
This is an absolutely incredible idea. First time mums are absolutely bombarded with advertising and information, it is so nice to just receive some samples of items, open them up and compare them yourself. Ive changed which nappies Im planning on buying based on the BaoBag, and its reaffirmed my preference for other products too. Thank you so much for the opportunity to test out these items!
Great little bag for new mums, nice to try new products. Love the dinner ladies voucher as having meals provided us one if the most amazing things post partum

Really impressed with the bags contents and love the actual bag and the design will use this within my nappy bag for babys clothes chaNges
I loved the bag, I think it had a great number of products and vouchers in it. I think for new parents it is a perfect opportunity to introduce new products to parents who may always stick to the old, tried and tested.
The bag is so cute, will be using it for all the little essentials in my hospital bag as I like to have things organised for easy access when in a rush
What a great introduction to products and information/knowledge. It would also be a helpful addition to include samples for mums to be, lotions/creams, teas, mental health information, maternity wear, what to pack for the hospital etc. I loved this bag.
The bags are great quality and it's nice to try products before buying them. As a first time mum I wasn't too familiar with the products and brands available, so the samples really helped.

Thank you for exposing new parents such as ourselves to these brands. Not only did this make us aware of the wide variety of baby products available in the market, but it also helped us pick our favorites. We'll be trying more of Huggies and Mustela products going forward!
It is such an amazing gift to give to new Mums in hospitals. Not everyone has people in their lives that can recommend items like these so it's a great way to explore products that are out there and try different things. It honestly felt like getting a care package from my Mum - full of thought and advice and love. Such a beautiful experience.

I think the Baobag is great as a new mum I was not sure what brands to get or if I was on the right track with grtting what was best for my baby. When my midwife from Perth Pregnancy Centre gave me this it felt like a treasure trove of clues of what brands were good to get and it felt reassuring as well that I was on the right track.
Loved receiving the baobag.The samples are great and loved having the opportunity to try products id never heard of but now will absolutely be purchasing. It is less overwhelming to be able to try before having the pressure of a newborn and trial and error. Also loved the inclusion of natural parent and other information its not overwhelming or shoving info in your face its nice to have something to flick through at your own pace.
Was a lovely unexpected gift to receive during my ultrasound appt. A great way to see what products and services are available, especially for a first time mum. I really like the reusable bag as well. I liked that it had a mixture of products ranging from more natural to commercial as there would be something suitable for everyone inside. Thank you!

This was such an unexpected but extremely welcomed bag. A small gift bursting with a big difference. It gave us the opportunity to try different products that we wouldn't have otherwise used. But it also just made life that little bit easier with meal vouchers and a stocked nappy bag for the unexpected moments. Thank you, whoever you are, for putting these magical bags together.
This is such a good bag to get to know a few products as it can be very overcoming as a first time mum when looking for products to purchase for Bub. Absolutly greatful and loved getting this bag.
Was an amazing surprise getting these amazing gifts! Think its a fantastic thing to gift woman to help test and use so they know which product suits them and their baby before buying the whole pack. Think its fantastic thank you

I thought the BaoBag was extremely helpful in particular for first time mums including some of the leaflets and fliers - for example from one of the Cherub catalogues I was able to research and buy a bottle warmer that I had not seen in physical stores and was exactly what I needed. At a time when it is very difficult to get out of the house to go shopping a lot, the BaoBag was like going shopping from home and was so good to be able to try products without actually spending a lot of money at a time when there is so much to purchase overall and a lot of spending to try and budget for.
It's a great way of presenting brands and products for parents, especially for new mums like me, I have never had any contact with baby products before and there are so many different brands out there that having selected ones in a bag helped me not to feel too overwhelmed when looking for products to test. Great idea!!!
