Mom Travel Style Design Board

 

It's so easy to travel in style with modern accessories from Timi & Leslie, Bugaboo, Skip Hop and Aden + Anais. This week's design board takes it out of the nursery and into the real world but still shows off stylish options for mom and baby. A must for the road is the Timi & Leslie Marylin II Convertible Diaper Bag which comes with all the travel accessories necessary for staying organized and looking fashionable. Coordinate with the Special Edition Bugaboo Bee Stroller in Purple and you and baby are looking flashy in this season's hottest color. Don't forget to bring along the Skip Hop Central Park Outdoor Blanket & Cooler Bag in Wave Dot so you can be prepared for an impromptu picnic in the park. Big sis can be in the know, too, with her ultra cool Skip Hop Little Kids Mouse Backpack and the plush Little Chuckanucka Uglydoll.  Finish it all off with an Aden + Anais Swaddle in Princess Posies, one for baby and one as a scarf for you!

Bags, Bags and More Bags! Designer Bags for Everyone!

Admit it.  Somewhere in the back of your mind, you have a Christmas list already laid out.  A little dolly for Madison...a toy race car for Jack...sweaters for everyone!  Well, we may not be able to help you with the sweater part, but we have some fantastic bags that you need to look through.  We've added over 300 new diaper bags to Pokkadots.com- some traditional, some convertible bags that women can use well beyond the diaper days and some super hip and functional messenger bags that Dad can use for his laptop after the baby's into grown-up gear!  One of the exciting new lines we have up is Pishposh Mommy Bags.  These bags allow Moms to gather up all of their baby changing accessories, store them in this convenient and stylish bag and drop the entire bag into their own tote or purse.  The best news is that the bags lift up and out of one bag and into the next, no need to reorganize a new purse when you simply want to change your look for the day! Check out the video below for more info:



We've also introduced our first ever Collegiate line from DadGear.  That's an easy get for the man in your life devoted to his school for all eternity!  The bags are fully functional and come with a lot of great features to help Dad stay organized and ready to keep baby happy and dry. 


Still looking for more?  We've got Skip Hop bags, Dwell Studio bags, JP Lizzy bags, Diaper Dude bags, Fleurville, Reese Li, JJ Cole, and many, many more!  Not to mention we'll be adding some super new lines over the next few weeks.  Check back often under the 'New Arrivals' tab on the homepage!

Modern Nursery & Bumbleride Sponsorship of Postpartum Education & Support Strollerthon!

Modernnursery.com is thrilled to announce our dual sponsorship, along with Bumbleride, of the first annual Strollerthon to benefit Postpartum Education & Support.  The event is scheduled for October 2nd and will take place in Cary, NC.  This morning of family fun will feature a three-mile walkathon for teams and individuals, entertainment and activities for children, Tot Trot races specifically for kids, and fun for the entire family.  Prizes awarded to individuals and teams. 

Postpartum Education and Support (PES) is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to the emotional wellness of mothers. We offer support for mothers and their families; provide resources for health care providers; and heighten public awareness of perinatal mood disorders. This good work was started eleven years ago by a mother who experienced postpartum depression and anxiety herself and didn’t want other women to suffer in silence. Every woman experiencing a postpartum mood disorder deserves quick and appropriate treatment. All money raised will help provide necessary services for mothers and their families.

In addition to our sponsorship, we will be forming the ModernNursery.com & Bumbleride Team.  If you can't make it to the actual event, please consider making a pledge, of any amount, to help support this terrific organization that has helped so many women and their families.  You can also support PES by shopping on modernnursery.com, pokkadots.com or wallstickershop.com.
