THE REALITY OF A (TRUE) DEPARTURE
When packing your luggage, it is a question of giving up a certain number of clothes, shoes or other accessories from your own suitcase to make room for the many belongings of our dear angel who is barely more than 60cm tall... Oh yes ! You need space (and arms!) to transport the travel cot, the sheets and the sleeping bag, the cosi, the deckchair, the play mat, the big bag of small clothes (where we obviously doubled the number of short-sleeved and long-sleeved bodysuits) and of course her toiletry bag (worthy of a dressed-up bimbo) with everything you need for small emergencies. Our baby traveler is not yet ready for a trek in the high mountains but he is more ready for a pleasant journey in 1st class! In short, an oversized checklist and great logistics!
Here, the nomadic blanket opened and installed in the Babyzen Yoyo stroller.
CHECKLIST FOR THE PERFECT BABY TRAVELER: “HEAVY” EQUIPMENT
But as we live in good times, the art of traveling with baby has become a little less complicated. I'll explain and detail the list of clever childcare accessories to ensure an optimized trip.
- The traditional “bulky-and-heavy-travel cot” is transformed into a simple suitcase thanks to Babybjörn. The brand has adopted the concept of the tent which can be set up in 2 seconds to reinvent the very comfortable nomadic baby bed.
- Still from the Babybjörn brand, we equip ourselves with the super deckchair which folds flat and stores easily in a well-filled car trunk. The must is to dress it with a Milinane deckchair cover. The latter remains securely fixed to the deckchair (even folded!) thanks to its fixing system which makes it immovable.
- The Yoyo stroller from Babyzen. In addition to being ultra light, it folds and stores in a small bag that can be worn over the shoulder.

- THE stroller cushion in cotton muslin also becomes an ally for travel. As our baby spends an infinite amount of time there, it is better that he feels like a rooster in dough! This seat cushion remains perfectly installed even if your stroller is folded! The latter serving as places for naps, snacks and meals, as long as it can be washed and dried easily!
- A homemade nugget for the trip is the Milinane nomadic blanket which can do double duty. Used as a blanket in the YOYO stroller during the day, it transforms into an extra sleeping bag for the night in bed. Its thickness and breathable material guarantee gentle warmth and peaceful nights for our little one.
- It's with the fantastic diapers let my list end. I will not remind you of the many uses imagined for these diapers (see my previous article) but will only tell you that they serve as an extra sheet and/or protective blanket for changing.

Okay, let's be clear. It may be a little late, for some of you, to completely review the ideal childcare equipment. But nothing stops you from equipping yourself with the essentials from Milinane to complete the trousseau of our little travelers
