22 Smart Baby Gadgets to Make Parenting Easier

As a parent and baby wrangler, there are days when you just “can’t even” but then you do it anyway because there are no sick days, no vacation, no coffee breaks (unless you enjoy coffee that you brew yourself before getting caught up in a diaper disaster, then try to reheat in the microwave, then forget about, then give up and drink cold). Taking care of a baby is rough stuff and any little thing on this earth to make it the tiniest bit easier is a miracle. Alas, here are 22 little miracles of technology in the form of super smart baby gadgets you can get with Cash Back at Ebates.

Aquatopia™ Safety Bath Time Audible Thermometer and Alarm

Safety is always first when it comes to bath time. Be sure baby’s bath water is a safe temperature every time with this easy-to-read thermometer in a super cute turtle shape! The best part–the device beeps to let you know if the water gets too hot and measures every two seconds.

Milkscreen Alcohol Test Strips for Breastmilk

Moms, we get it. Sometimes you just need a cocktail. Leave your worries behind on Girls’ Night Out. You can rest assured that your Mother’s Milk is OK for baby consumption with these handy alcohol test strips. Get fast results so you can breast feed with peace of mind.

RaZbaby® Keep-it-Kleen Pacifier

Say goodbye to constantly rinsing off dirty, dingy chupies. This magical binky closes a protective shell around the nipple as soon as it is dropped. Now that’s one smart pacifier.

Boon ‘Glo’ Color Changing Night Light

Some toddlers are professional sleep fighters. Major FOMO is to blame for this. Little ones just don’t want to miss out on a single minute of play time. A super cool nightlight that they can play with while chilling out in bed will be sure to get those peepers closed for the night in no time.

Kiinde Breastfeeding Set

Even when breast feeding comes naturally to new moms, it is still a time-consuming and physically draining (pun intended) task. With this all-inclusive breast feeding set, you can pump, store and feed with the same pouches so you don’t lose a drop of that liquid gold.

Summer Infant Pacifier Thermometer

No baby wants to sit still while you attempt to take their temperature. They apparently didn’t get the memo that it’s kind of your job to know when they are getting sick. This is perhaps the easiest way to get those important digits without a wiggling fuss from your little sickie.

Motorola MBP853CONNECT Monitor

Keep an eye on your little bundle at all times and ease stress when transitioning baby into sleeping in another room.

Gro-Egg Room Thermometer

This nightlight and room thermometer in one will ensure your baby’s bedroom is always at a pleasant climate. After all, a too-hot or too-cold room will indeed result in a non-sleeping baby.

Cloud B Sleep Sheep

Soft and cuddly, this little sheep makes soothing bedtime noises that mimic mother’s heartbeat, spring showers, ocean waves and even whale songs!

Mimo™ Smart Baby Monitor

Moniter your baby’s sleep activity, breathing, body position and skin temperature with your smartphone or tablet. You’ll be notified of changes in your baby’s breathing and activity, including when they wake up or roll over. You’ll all be able to sleep a little easier.

Baby Einstein™ Sea Dreams Soother™

If over 25 minutes of soft music and lights won’t put Junior to bed, we don’t know what will. This little soother is one of the coolest nursery gadgets on the market, complete with a convenient remote control you can use from the other room.

Baby Brezza Formula Pro

Be sure to put this formula mixer on your must-have baby gear list. Easily measure and mix formula and water with a touch of a button because we all know how a few seconds seem to last a lifetime when your baby is screaming for a bottle.

Green Sprouts Water Bottle Cap Adapter

Formula + disposable water bottle + this bottle cap adapter = instant and easily formula for baby. Never scramble to wash a bottle again while you’re attempting to have a life outside the home with baby.

Boon Squirt Silicone Baby Food Dispensing Spoon

If you make your own baby food, this magic spoon is a must. Simply fill with your favorite puree and squeeze to feed baby on the go.

Blooming Baby Bath Mat

Protect baby from bumps and bruises during bath time in the kitchen sink with this soft and cozy bath pad. Rinse, wring and throw into the dryer once you’re done for super easy cleaning.

Baby Shusher

Shushing may seem like an easy task but try doing it for 15 minutes straight and you will find out what a tongue cramp feels like. This magic machine includes a timer and volume control to have your baby out like a light in no time.

BEABA Babycook Baby Food Maker

Steamer, blender, warmer and defroster, this miracle worker takes a ton of the cleanup out of making your own organic baby food!

Mixie Baby Formula Mixing Bottle

Preload this amazing baby bottle with formula and water in separate compartments then instantly mix with a press of a button when it’s feeding time.

Brica Baby In-Sight Mirror

Some babies love car rides while others use it as practice time to perfect their wail. Ease those fussy passengers with the LED lights and songs to keep them entertained or soothing noises to get them to sleep.

Cibo Reusable Food Catching Placemat

This food-catching feeding mat will save your floors and your sanity. Place it around your kid’s bowl or plate to ensure those clumsy crumbs will be expertly collected.

Vicks Starry Night Cool Mist Humidifer

Humidifier and nightlight in one? Yes, please! Keep little noses from getting clogged and get baby on the road to sleepy town all with one amazing gadget.

Munchkin Lulla-Vibe Vibrating Mattress Pad

Gentle vibrations often do the trick with fussy babies fighting sleep. Instead of using a bouncer or swing and then trying ever so gently to transfer baby into a crib, just slip the Lulla-Vibe under the crib mattress. Genius, right?
