When I first traveled with Ada, she was 7 months old and I was ✨scared✨ but it turns out- traveling with a baby is a TON easier than traveling with a toddler 🤪
The basics:
✨ you can bring WHATEVER baby items you need - breastmilk, formula, bottled water for bottles, baby food, ice packs for breastmilk — all are okay in any quantity for domestic flights! Just let TSA know in advance and plan accordingly- TSA with a baby takes a few extra minutes.
✨Having a car seat on the flight is considered best practice and DOES make your flight so much easier than just holding your baby for the flight - but I’ve also held Ada for an entire flight alone, and it’s harder as they get bigger but it’s doable! They can be considered lap babies until their 2nd birthday.
✨Gate check your big baby items! Have a car seat or stroller you want to check for the flight? Do it at the gate instead of at the bag check desk. This means you can keep your stroller with you the entire time up until walking onto the plane + it’s the first item off so you can load the kiddo(s) up before you head to pick up your bags!
✨ have the right gear! Backpack or backpack style diaper bags work best to lighten your load while traveling, consider bringing a carrier especially for boarding when they eventually need to come out of the stroller, and other convenience items come in clutch - a portable changing pad for public restrooms, bottle warmer if baby prefers warmed milk, and NEW small toys that they don’t play with at home!
But I know that with all the travel tips in the world… it still feels like a lot to travel with little ones, especially a baby! That’s why I am here ✨ plan that next vacation with someone who has been in your shoes!

The fun thing about taking your babies at different ages is seeing them grow up and play in the same spots every year. These videos are just over a year apart from each other and I can’t wait to see next year’s version ✨

There’s very few things in this world that make a small child happier than a bubble wand 🥲
We are starting to hit the age where Ada loves - and wants - everything. My biggest tip at combatting this is giving your kiddo a gift card with a set amount on it. They can spend it on whatever they want, but when it’s gone, it’s gone. Ada is still a *little* too young to understand this concept, but we will begin implementing it on the next trip!
But in the mean time… we got the bubble wand. 🥰
Hi, I’m Haley. ✨
Over here, we love coffee, Bluey and Disney. I’m among the pack of busy moms just trying to make magical memories for their kiddos + in that quest, I’ve helped countless other moms make those magical moments happen. I hope you stick around for a while. 🫶🏻
In case we’ve never met, hey - I’m Haley. Over here, we are big fans of Disney, coffee + Bluey. I work together with busy parents to make their vacations extra magical, and I hope you stick around and maybe decide one day to work together on your vacation ✨
Thanks for being here 🫶🏻
