Does baby prep have you drowning in gear options, advice, and a to-do list that sucks up all of your time and energy?
If you’re feeling overwhelmed and clueless on what to buy - especially if you’ve never cared for a baby before - or just exhausted from the process, you’re not alone. If you’re into Montessori after reading some books but have no idea how to set up that perfect space, or you want a registry that fits your needs and desires but don’t know where to start, I can help!
Montessori for newborns is about a simple, safe setup that is developmentally-appropriate for a baby without overloading you with stuff. The focus is on creating a space for independence from day one, which can 100% be tailored to your budget and lifestyle, and doesn’t require any fancy gear.
Here are some quick tips:
- Keep your registry simple and focus on long-lasting, quality pieces of gear.
- Design the spaces in your home to function for you as the parent(s) as well as the baby.
- Think of your baby’s womb environment and how you can make the adaptation smoother by recreating some of those sensory experiences.
- Make decisions based on your lifestyle instead of following trends.
- Try a topponcino, which is an awesome Montessori tool for newborns!
