One of the best ways to know if you or your baby will like something is to give it a test run before adding it to your registry.

It’s kind of like a gift to you from us, welcoming you to the wonderful world of parenthood. From diapers and bottles to bodysuits and pacifiers, the Hello Baby Box is packed with some of our favorite picks for baby (there are even a few self-care staples for you, too).  

And because we know you already have enough on your pre-baby to-do list, getting yours is as easy as adding a few items to your baby registry. Once you do that, $100 worth of goodies will be headed your way for you and baby—all you have to do is pay $8.95 for shipping

If you’re wondering what’s inside the Hello Baby Box, read on to get a sneak peek at a few of the 25+ brands and why we love them, along with 13 reasons why you’ll want to sign up for yours. 

17 REASONS TO GET THE HELLO BABY BOX

Reason #1: Aveeno’s baby-friendly skincare 

 .

Newborn skin is extra delicate, and dryness can pop up fast. Aveeno’s Healthy Start Newborn Balm delivers proactive hydration that’s clinically proven to support baby’s moisture barrier, helping nourish their developing skin and protect it from everyday irritants. This balm is rich but absorbs easily, making it safe for daily use from day one and made without fragrance or parabens.

Reason #2:  Bobbie’s award-winning, European-inspired formula

 .

No matter how you plan to feed your baby, having a formula you trust on hand is an easy win. Bobbie is the only organic, European-style infant formula manufactured end-to-end in the U.S. Clinically crafted to meet strict nutritional standards, every batch passes 2,000+ quality and safety checks before it reaches your baby’s bottle, making it a formula trusted by parents and loved by their babies—over and 700K counting.

Reason #3: Dr. Brown’s anti-colic bottles

 .

Feeding time comes with a learning curve—for babies and parents alike. Dr. Brown’s bottles are designed with an internal vent system that helps reduce air intake, which can mean less gas, spit-up and fussiness. P.S. They’re a Babylist parent-fave for smoother, more comfortable feeds.

Reason #4: Huggies essential diapers and wipes

 .

You’ll be changing a lot of diapers in those early days, so gentle protection really matters. Huggies Little Snugglers diapers are hypoallergenic, fragrance-free and designed with all-around blowout protection* so you can focus on snuggles. Pair them with Huggies Skin Essentials wipes made with 99% purified water. They provide a washcloth-like experience and are ultra plush for a gentle clean.

Reason #5: Little Unicorn’s too-cute swaddles

 .

Swaddling is one of the first things new parents learn to do for their babies. Muslin blankets like these from Little Unicorn are lightweight and breathable to keep baby cool while being handy as a burp cloth or nursing blanket. We love their hooded towels for bathtime, too!

Reason #6:  MAM’s award-winning bottles

 .

Feeding is one of the biggest adjustments in the early days with a new baby. MAM Easy Start Anti-Colic Bottles are designed to make this transition easy, featuring a vented base to help reduce gas and colic, and a soft, breast-like nipple that is easily accepted by babies. For added convenience, the bottles can be self-sterilized in the microwave in just three minutes, simplifying everyday feeding routines.

Reason #7 Philips Avent combo feeding-friendly Bottles

Switching between breast and bottle can feel tricky at first. Philips Avent Natural bottles are designed to let baby control the pace, thanks to a soft, breast-shaped nipple that only releases milk when baby actively sucks—similar to breastfeeding. With multiple flow options, a no-drip design and pediatrician-recommended credibility, they’re a flexible choice for growing feeding needs. Also available in glass and PPSU materials.

Reason #8 Rascals affordable, skin-friendly diapers 

 .

Created by a mom who struggled to find affordable diapers that were safe for her son's eczema-prone skin, Rascals are hypoallergenic, dermatologist tested and OEKO-Tex certified (aka free from lotions, latex, fragrances and other ingredients that can be harsh on sensitive skin). Designed with soft materials and leak protection that helps keep your baby—and their clothes and your couch—dry. Bonus: while the feel of these diapers might be upscale, the price tag is designed to be wallet-friendly.

Reason #9: Suavinex’s parent-loved pacifiers

 .

One thing most new parents will tell you is that it’s always helpful to have a backup pacifier (and maybe even a backup to the backup, too). Suavinex’s 100% silicone pacifiers are a top choice for both comfort and oral development—they were developed in Spain and are endorsed by the Spanish Society of Pediatric Dentistry. With a flatter, symmetrical nipple design, they’re designed to help your baby’s tongue stay in the same place as when they’re breastfeeding for the most natural sucking motion. If you plan on using bottles, parents also love their combo feeding focused Zerø.Zerø line for the same reason.

Reason #10: Triple Paste’s go-to solution for tough diaper rash

 .

Diaper rash can go from mild to major fast. When it does, many parents turn to Triple Paste’s All-In-One Triple Protection Diaper Cream. This pediatrician-trusted formula includes a triple-action blend of zinc oxide, oat extract and glycerin that works to soothe irritated skin while forming a thick, protective barrier that locks out moisture and helps skin heal. It’s fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, so it feels gentle enough to use every day—whether you’re dealing with a flare-up or just trying to stay ahead of one
