Traveling with a newborn: the essentials
Traveling with a newborn is entirely possible, as long as you adapt your preparation to their specific needs.
The gear that makes everything easier
- A lightweight travel crib, for a safe sleep space wherever you stay
- A baby carrier, more practical than a stroller in tight spaces or on public transport
- A dedicated travel toiletry and care kit, always ready to go
By plane
Book a bassinet seat early if the flight allows it, and have something ready to feed the baby during takeoff and landing to ease ear pressure.
By car
Plan a break roughly every 2 hours, a baby should never stay more than 2 consecutive hours in a car seat without a break, for both comfort and breathing safety.
To prepare calmly for the first trips, Kickoala lets you add all the travel gear suited to a newborn to your registry.
