Car Seats: Chicco car seats
OneFit ClearTex Car Seat, P34,999

The OneFit ClearTex is designed with safety in mind, featuring a steel-reinforced frame and EPS energy-absorbing foam that provide superior impact protection for the head and torso.

"I have been really impressed with Chicco car seats. The easy rotation and adjustable headrest makes it so convenient, and I love how comfortable it keeps my baby during rides, plus, the simple installation and strong safety features give me total peace of mind," says first-time parent Joelie Ann Tinambunan.
Baby Stroller: Joolz Aer+ Stroller
Joolz Aer+ Stroller, P31,999
Looking for a stroller your child can use from newborn till her toddler years? This is our editor’s choice for baby strollers!
Smart Parenting editor-in-chief Ronna Capili Bonifacio points out comfort and safety in her stroller review of the said model. “Joolz Aer+ has a 5-point click including shoulder straps, which secures the child very well. Since the stroller is designed to be used from newborn to 50 lbs, it features more points than usual travel strollers. It can also do a full recline, which in the toddler years is still useful when they take a nap. This was also when I told myself that if I had this from the time my son was a newborn, I would have been able to make the most out of its price tag because it could have grown up with him. For families who live in a small space or are minimalists, a single stroller that could be used for years and any occasion is a better choice than having to trade up once the baby can sit down unassisted or buying a separate travel-friendly stroller. Storing it at home is simpler.”
"I’ve tried the Joolz stroller at baby fairs, and it definitely stands out. The sleek design, premium feel, and smooth maneuverability on all types of terrain make it a top contender for me. The stroller is super comfortable, eco-friendly, and folds compact, which is perfect for storage. It’s a great addition to any Christmas wishlist—stylish, durable, and functional. It's definitely worth considering when looking for a high-quality stroller," adds mom of one and content creator, Quinn Buena.
