Becoming a parent is an expensive experience, and with rising costs and tariffs, it certainly isn’t getting cheaper. One way to help curb the insane amount of spending you’re on the hook for? Finding great deals on the gear you need, and Amazon Prime Day is a perfect opportunity.
There’s plenty of baby gear you’re going to want (cute shoes they’ll never wear! custom knitted sweaters that are doomed for spit-up!), but there’s plenty you need that can’t be skipped, like the car seats and baby monitors. Those items aren’t a cheap investment, but right now some of our favorites and go-to items are on sale. Check out our favorite baby gear we’ve tested with our own kids below.

This baby monitor packs an impressive amount of data about your baby’s night of sleep, and if you get the breathing accessories (pajamas or a swaddle with a specific print on them), the camera can also track Baby’s breathing. It’s a great Wi-Fi-based monitor (our favorite one, in fact!) with a ton of mount options, and an easy-to-use app.

Electric NoseFrida
I love this little nose sucker. It was one of my holy grail items for the first year of my son’s life. It’s electric, so there’s none of the manual sucking that gives me the ick. It works great to get snot out of little noses, a frequent problem when your crawling baby starts picking up more and more germs on their journey around the floor.

Kani 4-in-1 Convertible Car Seat
With some baby gear, you can wait to see if you need it. But not a car seat. You’ll need one to leave the hospital, and while you might want to start with a portable infant car seat (which are great for loading up newborns indoors and carting them around while they sleep!), once your kid reaches a certain weight and height, they’ll need a larger car seat. I’m loving this seat from Maxi-Cosi for my kid right now, which has plenty of adjustments for his tall, 3-year-old body and two removable drink holders.

Cybex
Libelle 2 Travel Stroller
A great stroller is a game-changer, and once my kid started sitting facing forward, I became obsessed with travel strollers that are lightweight and fold down small. One of the smallest I’ve ever tried is the Cybex Libelle stroller. It’s a great pick for parents who want something super small for their trunk that their kiddo will still be comfy in. It’s got a unique handle style, but you get used to it.

Go Wearable Breast Pump
I wish desperately I had invested in a wearable breast pump sooner. They often come with a handful of flange sizing options, rather than the single flange I got with my classic pump that turned out to be a poor fit (no wonder my pump results were mediocre), so it’s easy to find a good fit and they’re so much more comfortable to wear since you aren’t battling cords sticking out of your body. Great for any pumping parent, whether you’re on the go or at the office or just prefer to pump in general.

If you’re looking for a compact stroller but nothing as compact as the Cybex above, the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is an impressive feat of design, featuring jogger-style wheels and a nearly flat fold in a single stroller. It was one of my favorites for a while, and is still an honorable mention in our Best Strollers guide. It’s got attachments for car seats, but is really best for forward-facing kiddos. It’s comfortable to push and compact without cutting back on things like undercarriage storage.
