Our Editor’s Picks

lalo the chair - $235.00

Every parent knows that just as you’ve got a grip on one stage of your little one’s development, they’re onto something new. Just as quickly as time passes, so do their needs adapt and change with rapid succession. That’s why this editors’ pick is rooted in pure gratitude for the support Lalo’s The Chair offers us as we race to keep up with our growing babies and kids. Featuring a 3-in-1 design for added value, The Chair ensures a life cycle of more memories as it transitions from high chair to booster seat to play chair. With custom bundles and accessories made to suit each family’s unique needs, this high chair has boosted functionality and a sleek design we adore. We believe children deserve a seat at the table, both literally and stylishly, from before they can reach the footrest to when they’re painting the next great masterpiece. Forbes named it the #1 Overall High Chair for its “trifecta of awesomeness”, and we couldn’t agree more.

sahajan ritual body oil - $46.00

In Ayurvedic traditions, it is believed that one of the greatest acts of self-care is to anoint oneself with oil from head to toe. This ritual body oil from Sahajan is perfect for everyday practices that inspire us to commit to more self-love and compassion. Some might even consider it a little yoga retreat in a bottle! Free from the emulsifiers, fillers, and preservatives commonly found in other lotions, even a small amount of this rich oil provides unmatched, undiluted nourishment for tired mamas and caregivers of all types. Derived from the Hindi word for “intuitive”, Sajahan offers evidence-based clean beauty we can’t get enough of.
