Hiring A Baby Capsule Wardrobe! Review of Borrowed By Baby

June 18, 2022 Lauren Natalia

I have an exciting post to share today, which, as you can tell from the title, is all about baby capsule wardrobes!

As you’ll probably know if you’ve been reading for a while, I am a big fan of having a capsule wardrobe for myself, but have found it kind of difficult to implement the same streamlined approach to my kiddies wardrobe’s (they just grow so fast and it can be tricky planning out your purchases when you just don’t know how long they will be in a certain size!)

You can imagine my excitement when Stevie the owner of Borrowed by Baby contacted me and asked if I would like to try out a baby capsule wardrobe for Matteo! There could not be a more aligned collaboration and I’m so happy to be able to share this really awesome business with you!

Preparing the House for a Newborn

May 24, 2022 Lauren Natalia

Today’s post and video is about how I prepared our house for the new baby to make things as easy as possible for us when we brought them home!

As this was the second time round, I had a better idea of what to expect, so was able to set things up in a way that was just a bit more organised and helped make the transition a little easier!

I found the best way to think about it is in terms of “stations” - feeding station, changing station etc and making sure you have everything you need all in the right place!

This blog post is just going to be a list of things I had at each station, but the video talks through and actually shows things a little more, so have a watch if you’d like to know a bit more detail!

I hope its helpful if you’re about to have a baby!

Welcome To the World Matteo River!

Matteo Baby Announcement with Name Plaque

Hello Hello!

So if you’ve been following along on Instagram (@laurennatalia.co) you’ll know that this is a rather belated post, but I wanted it to have a space here on the blog too!

Our little Matteo River is here!

He was born on the 18th of January at 12:16am, surprising us with a very quick entrance into the world - only an hour after we left for the hospital!!

His birth story is kinda wild and when they put him on my chest I was just in total shock with how quickly it all happened, but everything worked out perfectly!

We had a peaceful few days in hospital before heading home and adjusting to the craziness of life as a family of four!!

Ruby is so in love with her little brother - her “Baby Teo” as she calls him, and (although it was definitely a huge adjustment for her) has done so well getting used to our new family member! She is just so sweet with him and loves giving him cuddles and checking on “her baby”.

Here are a few photos from the first few days in hospital - such special moments and memories that I just love looking back on! I’m excited to hopefully get around to sharing his birth story soon too, as it was one of the coolest (and craziest!) experiences of my life!

Hello Hello!

Today I’m sharing a review of a super cute baby brand I’ve recently discovered and completely fallen in love with!

My Little Love Heart sell stylish baby bibs and accessories that are designed and made right here in Perth.

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while you’ll know that I love supporting local businesses, so when Luisa, the owner and designer of My Little Love Heart got in touch and asked if I would like to try out a few of her pieces, I was so excited and happy to have found another lovely Perth-based baby brand!

My Little Love Heart was born when Luisa noticed there was a real need for stylish and absorbent burp cloths and bibs. Her baby had bad reflux and they would go through so many bibs everyday, but she couldn’t find any decent ones, so, using her fashion design background she decided to make her own!
