Here are 10 things you may want to consider packing in a bag for nursery:
-
Nappies and wipes - Even if the nursery provides these, it's always a good idea to have a few extras on hand.
-
Extra clothes - Accidents and spills happen, so pack at least one extra outfit for your child.
-
Comfort items - If your child has a favorite stuffed animal or blanket, it may help them feel more comfortable and at ease in a new environment.
-
Bottles and formula (if applicable) - If your child is not yet on solid foods, make sure to bring any necessary bottles and formula or breast milk.
-
Snacks - If your child is old enough for solid foods, bring along some healthy snacks to keep them fueled throughout the day.
-
Sunscreen and hat - If the nursery has outdoor playtime, make sure to pack sunscreen and a hat to protect your child from the sun.
-
Medications - If your child requires any medications throughout the day, make sure to provide clear instructions and bring along any necessary medications.
-
Comfortable shoes - Depending on the nursery's activities, your child may need comfortable shoes for running, jumping, and playing.
-
Water bottle - Staying hydrated is important, so pack a water bottle for your child.
-
A labeled bag or backpack - Make sure to label your child's bag or backpack with their name so that it doesn't get mixed up with others.
