Promising reviews: "To the moms out there that are looking for a treatment for their babies with eczema prone skin or baby acne, don’t hesitate to get this product ! This ointment saved my baby’s face in less than 16 hours. I reapply every 2–3 hours, now her skin is completely clear. Her skin broke out very badly and it was really red for three days, we tried so many products and nothing helped except this one. It is worth every penny! Do not hesitate and get this for your babe!" —Sabrina

"An absolute miracle. The ONLY thing that’s saved our toddlers cheeks. She’s suffered with dry chapped cheeks since she was about a year old… After two days her cheeks were normal." —Kyle

Promising review: "This item is amazing! Truly saved us on a red eye HOWEVER Jet Blue is terrible and didn’t let us use it made me take it down mid flight after my daughter was already asleep! So be warned of your airline - delta girl for life. But otherwise it’s a great invention." —B2brown

"Saved our trip! Our toddler loves to wiggle and run everywhere, so we were really worried about taking a flight with him for the first time. This airplane bed was fantastic to help keep him in his seat because he couldn't slide down, and offered a really great spot for him to NAP! Him being comfortable enough to take a nap on our flight was hands down all because of this airplane bed. What we really loved was that it was so lightweight and easy to set up, no pumps/inflating items, just strap in and go. Thanks a bunch!" —Meagan Mosser

Puracy is a family-owned small business dedicated to creating natural and organic formulas that are not only effective but also safe for kids and pets. Aside from food stains, this spray also does a number on all other miscellaneous spots in your life, like wine, coffee, makeup, and period blood!

Promising review: "My son woke up from a bloody nose that resulted in what looked like a murder scene occurred on his white sheets, pale gray comforter, his pillows, white carpet, soaking through the mattress cover and on his mattress. I was stressed that the blood wouldn’t come out because it was dry already by the time he woke up. Let me tell you what- this spray is a miracle treatment and saved the day!! I literally just sprayed the blood spots (not even heavily) and threw the laundry in the wash- ALL of the blood came out in the first wash and it smelled great! I sprayed this on his carpet and mattress too and use a white rag with a little blue dawn to clean the blood out- it worked perfectly!! Now I tell everybody I know about it!" —Tanya M-S

Promising reviews: "I purchased these previously so that my son could ride with my husband on the riding lawn mower without them falling off like the other styles. Sadly, we had a family member pass away who was a Korean War vet, I was so nervous about the 21-gun salute and the bagpipes that were going to be at the service so I packed these hoping and praying they would do the trick. When it was time, I backed away from the guns with my son terrified that he was gonna be scared and start crying during the service. HE DIDN'T EVEN FLINCH! These made him a happy baby, 100% recommended having these. You never know when you’ll need them! I plan on getting every mom these for a baby shower gift. They completely saved the day!" —Frandsen

Get them from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in eight colors).

Promising review: "My daughter is used to a dark environment for naps and nighttime, and this saved the day for us on vacation. We were in a house with 10 adults and 11 children of all ages and she did so well! This, paired with a sound machine, was the trick. You need a large area to put it together, otherwise it’s a little bit of a pain, but otherwise simple and effective!" —Lyndsey

Promising reviews: "This is the only brush my 3-year-old will let me touch her hair with! She's very sensitive on her scalp and brushing her hair has always been a crying/screaming event. She will even brush her own hair with it. Life saver!" —jkk0409

"My son is mixed race, half Chinese, quarter African American, and quarter white. His hair is thin and curly. He went to the snow with his dad and refused to let his dad wash his hair. To make a long story short, when he returned, his hair was a GIANT dreadlock. I thought we were going to have to cut it, but this brush and a lot of conditioner saved the day. In the shower, I started pulling his hair apart in small sections and using this brush I was able to comb through his hair and untangle it. I just had to write a review because this brush has saved my son’s hair and my life!!! Thank you!!!" —jared franklin

Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 10 colors/patterns and two sizes).

Promising review: Seriously this product is genius. Whoever invented this deserves all the good things in life. This is such an easy hack for parents who are putting on sunscreen especially on several kids and then their spouse or themselves. this thing makes it so freaking easy. It's cheap enough to get many if your kids use different sunscreen or if you want something different than your kids. I absolutely love this and it saves me in the summertime!" —Ashley Rockey

"My kiddo hates sun cream, but I'm sick of wasting money on spray. This was a compromise buy and dang it was worth it. My kid is doing their OWN sunscreen without complaining! Save your sanity and you sunscreen budget next summer!" —femrob

Get it from Amazon for $15.98 (available in 12 colors).

Promising review: "Saves the day. These are AMAZING!! Sometimes the public restrooms don’t have the sheets to cover the toilet seat and the tissue doesn’t always stay on the seats. I put this on the toilet and it covers the whole thing. My toddler is the big too hold over the toilet, these are a lifesaver." —Tay M.

Promising review: "Bought this for our 2-year-old on a 10-hour road trip and it SAVED THE DAY! She loved it! The animals are so cute and soft. It is the perfect size for her hands and durable enough to withstand a toddler’s attention span. Buy it!" —Kellylou

Promising review: "These pacifiers have saved us from countless hours of crying and have helped us get some extra sleep, which is hard to come by these days. They’re also super cute! We have bought several packs of these to have on hand all over the house." —tt2015

Promising review: "Saved the day! I admit to being a wipe-aholic, but these are fantastic for the normal parent on the go! I have a pack in the diaper bag - these have saved me when there is no sink and non-antibacterial soap around! If you have a child who needs a pacifier, you need these! No residue or after taste, but we just rinse with water after wiping to ease our own minds. Just as good as the other brand, and cheaper!" —Amazon Customer

Promising reviews: "I was struggling with the baby clipper (terrifying to use!) and a regular nail file (she doesn’t sit still- who was I kidding?!) and this saved the day! So easy and doesn’t hurt her teeny hands. So glad I bought it." —Laura Ronen

Promising reviews: "I love this tool! Drives me nuts when my baby has a booger and I can’t get it for her. This thing saved the day!" —Valerie Stewart

"This is great for getting the boogies in the way back. We have the nose freida but that's more for snotty noses to me. The nose freida was also bulkier and couldn't fit in my newborns tiny nostrils. The oogiebear saved the day with hard stubborn boogies. Easy painless. Baby didn't even know I was in there. He's 3 months old now and we still use it!" —Nurse Whitney

Promising reviews: "This saved us in the newborn days! Truly the best. Look no further. Helped baby so much and is safe and effective." —Shannon

"This works really well, the charge last a long time and the suction on it is the best. Every time my baby is sick and congested, it does the job. It’s also saved the day the couple of times he shoved food up his nose that was too far up for me to retrieve by hand or with a nose picker. I highly recommend." —SeeJoy

Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in 10 colors).

Promising review: "These saved the day! LO kept leaking overnight even when we sized up diapers and it was waking them up! These are easy to slip into their diaper before bed and now we have had zero leaks! Super glad we bought these!" —E.K. Rehkopf

These are my family's go-to bandages because they *actually* stick, and the tins are so convenient to throw in bags and car gloveboxes. 

Promising review: "Hands-down, this is the best packable on the fly first aid kits that travel extremely well! I have purchased so many of these not just for myself but for friends, family members and coworkers.

We do a lot of off-roading and camping as well as basic travel. This has saved the day on so many occasions! Get it... you’ll love the quality of the flexible bandages and ointments provided, plus you can purchase a replacement box of 200+ bandages etc. to refill your current tin. :)" —Deana W

Promising reviews: "After 10 months of not being able to sleep in my own bed due to several wakeups from my twin 2-year-olds throughout the night – every night, Hatch has saved the day. The color system is an age appropriate way for young minds to understand nighttime boundaries. Our toddlers can repeat “Pink means stay in bed, don’t call Mommy. Blue means it’s time to get up and get Mommy!” And so far, after eight days, they’ve stuck with it! As someone with pretty severe autoimmune issues, sleep is imperative to my health. I’ve gone from two hours sleep per night max to sleeping in my bed and getting 6–7 hours of sleep. Thank you Hatch!!" —Heidi Hubbeling

Promising review: "This bag is THE BEST!! We bought this after the big mouth baby bag we had broke and became deformed. Ugh. This bag saved the day! Super stylish and pockets galore!!! Much bigger side wipe pouch to hold tons of wipes, too! Very study. Only thing is I wish the pockets in the big zipper part weren’t so deep because I lose things down in there. Ha ha. But it’s still the best baby bag we have ever had!" —R. Holloman

Tushbaby is a woman-owned small business that also donates its products to hospitals across the United States. We love to see it!

P.S. If you want more wiggle room in your TushBaby, they sell an extender that gives you up to 71 inches of space!

Promising review: "Where was this when my kids were babies?! I had severely tight muscles between my shoulder blades from carrying babies. This item would have saved the day. Bought this for my first grand baby. Daughter says it's a life saver. Even when he couldn't hold himself up as well he could sit on this with her support and she was able to get a lot more things done than before. The belt is also great lower back support for her. A great asset in the mommy arsenal!" —rmsreflection

Promising review: "We love Miss Mouth’s Messy Spray! I am a mom of 2 active boys who love to play in the dirt, spill food and get grass stains on their clothes. Even my husband and I use the spray for our own clothes or other stained items around the house. Miss Mouth’s Spray is in every baby shower gift I have given to new moms and I am always telling my mom friends about it who don’t know. We use the spray so much I subscribed to the monthly supply. It saves the day every time!" —A Big
