The 5 Best Baby Bags in 2022

Baby on the way? It’s a good time to start thinking about your baby bag. When a baby comes along, they also come with a lot of extra baggage you won’t be used to carrying around before. Think bottles, dummies, nappies, changing mats, a change of clothes – and that’s just for a 10 minute trip! Read on to find out our most favourite baby bags for 2022 no matter your personal style. 

What is a baby bag?

A baby bag or a nappy bag is designed to keep you organised with all the extra stuff baby needs. They often come with bottle holders (even insulated ones), lots of pockets to separate out all your bits and pieces, dividers, and even padded changing mats for nappy changes on the go. 

Why do you need a baby bag?

They are really invaluable when you have small children as most likely your current handbag won’t be big enough to fit in all the extra baby gear. They normally are able to strap over your pram handles too to keep all your baby essentials close to hand while you’re out and about. That said, if you really don’t want to part with your current handbag it is also possible to buy inserts with extra pockets and dividers to keep you organised. 

What to look for in a nappy bag?

When it comes to deciding on your nappy bag, there are a few things to look out for: 

• Unisex: Will you be sharing your bag with your parenting partner? If so, then you may want to opt for a unisex design.
• Comfort: Consider a backpack if comfort is in front of mind.
• Materials: Always opt for water-resistant, but consider if you’re looking for leather or vegan materials.
• Functionality: Pockets and bottle holders work really well for some, others prefer an open-style tote. Consider what works best for you.
• Style: Are you going to wear this bag to work too? Consider choosing something that will work for all occasions.

Without further ado, here’s a roundup of our top 5 favourite nappy bags to wear in 2022.

1. Vestirsi Bag: Monica

For lovers of a luxe looking, tote style bag, the Monica is for you! This is also particularly useful for working mums looking for a bag to seamlessly glide between nappy changes and meetings in the boardroom. It was designed by Vestirsi founder Monica Tarca when she couldn’t find an appropriate baby bag that could fit everything for her baby (and all her working-life things) together. Another great feature of this bag is how open it is so you can search for what you need with just one hand, while juggling baby in the other!
