The Modern Baby Company Review and Giveaway

With the arrival of our little one just 7 weeks away, I find myself finishing up the shopping for the items we still need. With Kaelyn, I learned what baby items we liked, and which we didn't. Knowing this, I have been on the lookout for quality bibs, burp clothes and blankets for quite some time.


I happened to come across The Modern Baby Co. and was very impressed with the selection of baby gear that they offer! Not only do they have bibs, burp clothes and blankets, but they also carry bedding sets, clothing, changing mats, and nursery decor! This is truly a place to find practically everything you need to help prepare for your little one's arrival!

The Modern Baby Co. is dedicated to offering kid friendly products that are not only fun, but also high quality and practical. They use a clean, simple design on all of their products...giving them a modern and sophisticated look that will appeal to many. They sent us one of their baby bibs in the Tangerine Dots fabric and their Orange Birds Mini Plush Baby Blanket for our baby when he/she arrives!

I was very impressed with both items when we received them! The bib is exactly what I've been looking for! It's trendy, high quality, and durable! I love how the neck is adjustable so both Kaelyn and the baby will be able to use it. I also LOVE the terry cloth backing making clean up easy and quick! It's also made to absorb very well. These are all things that I've found we need in a bib...and knowing that I can get them all in the bibs offered from The Modern Baby Co. has me wanting about 10 more with as many bibs as we will be going through with a baby and toddler.



The Mini Plush Baby Blanket was equally as impressive. I love the size first of all! It's perfect for a little one on the go! It has a toy/pacifier strap which can be a lifesaver during those first few months...especially when out and about. It is extremely plush and soft...and the fabric is great too! We will definitely get much use out of this once our baby arrives, that's for sure! I would love to have another one for our car so so that we're sure to have one for both home and travel.



After having had the chance to see how wonderful their products are, I now have my eye on several other things. I would love some of their burp cloths and one of their changing mats too! Their fabric and designs are so great!


I consider both of the items we received a Mommy Must-have for sure! I would recommend The Modern Baby Co. and the great products they offer to any parent! Their items would make a perfect baby gift as well!

Buy It: Their Baby Bibs can be purchased for $18, and the Orange Birds Mini Plush Baby Blanket can be purchased for $23...both found on their website.
