Having a waterproof changing surface and a machine washable cover can save you from a lot of extra clean-up. We also asked writer Becca Heyes to test a selection of changing bags and let us know her thoughts. As a mum to a boisterous two-year-old and a three-month-old baby, Becca was able to offer insight into what makes a really great changing bag that will grow with a family and last for years to come. Over the course of three months, Becca rigorously tested a shortlist of 15 bags before narrowing them down to favourites, some of which we included on this list. We combined all of this research to choose a selection of products that we think offer something for everybody. How we tested: Kate Desmond is a writer and infant safe-sleep expert. She has spent the last eight years working as the marketing director for Charlie’s Kids Foundation, a nonprofit that aims to educate families about SIDS and safe sleep. In that role, she travels around the country learning and educating caregivers and providers on the latest and greatest safe-sleep information to prevent infant death. Look at the portable changing station’s straps next. You’ll find most offer either a handle for easily carrying the pad, or a strap that can be attached to your wrist or your baby’s stroller. Of course, depending on the size of the pad, you may even be able to slide the pad in your diaper bag instead of having to carry it separately.

If you have your baby up on a changing table, you need a changing pad with contoured sides and straps to hold your wriggly baby in place. Even if you don't use a changing table and opt to change diapers on the floor, a good changing pad can lessen the stress of life with a newborn, primarily because they are made of materials that can be frequently cleaned. They're also cushioned so your baby is more comfortable and less likely to bang their head on the floor.OFF WORLD'S BEST OVERALLS: Savings based on MSRP. Select styles. Prices as marked.

Many people may say that it's essential, but you don't have to buy a changing mat - you can simply use a muslin or a towel instead. However, it is often much more hygienic, comfortable and safe to use a changing mat as it's a designated place to change your little one. Should you change your baby on the floor? You can look for brands that are on the Juvenile Product Manufacturers Association list of certified changing tables, meaning it's been validated by a reputable third party. This Delta Children changing table that has guardrails on all four sides is an example of a stand-alone changing station with safety features built in. Storkcraft and many other furniture brands sell dressers with removable changing tops, such as this Brookside 2 Drawer Changing Table. For plastic, contoured pads: Simply wipe down using antibacterial wet wipes, a little detergent, or even a weak solution of bleach after each diaper change. Consider keeping a small spritz bottle in a diaper caddy to whip out when you’re finished.

Parenting product experts at the Good Housekeeping Institute regularly test all kinds of baby gear from the safest car seats to the best-performing convertible cribs and everything else you'll need for your baby's first year, even baby bottles. Review the material used to make the changing pad. Not only do you want to make sure the pad is constructed using non-toxic materials that are safe up against the baby’s skin, but you’ll also want to make sure the pad is waterproof.

Never leave a child unattended on a dressing table, even for a moment, and even if they are strapped. This uniquely designed changing basket is constructed without the use of hazardous chemicals or materials such as latex, PVC, formaldehyde, or phthalates. The basket is made of natural seagrass, hand-crafted by women artisans, giving it a distinct boho look that is stunning and decorative. It is equipped with two leakproof organic changing liners which are unbleached and undyed and will not aggravate any allergies.

This smart, minimalist tote is typical of Bugaboo's practical, modern design. The fabric is water-repellent and the bag closes with a chunky zip, keeping all your belongings safe and dry. The bag comes with a changing mat, buggy clips and handy pouches. With wipeable material, padding to support the baby's head and provide cushioning from hard surfaces, and high sides to stop baby from rolling off (and, of course, all the cute designs!), we honestly can't think of a better option. Stability: Opt for a changing pad that has a safety belt and contoured sides to help keep your baby from rolling around, and use the belt every time. A non-skid bottom is also great for keeping the changing pad from sliding around on whatever surface it's placed on. We find many of the molded-foam changing pads to be somewhat naturally grippy. Looking for all the space of a full-sized changing bag, but compact? The Storksak Eco 2-in-1 Stroller Bag is for you. Fitting snugly onto most buggy handles, the bag can also be worn over your shoulder. One of the most important things to look out for when choosing a changing mat is that it's easy to clean. Whether it's a wipe-down version or one you can easily pop in the washing machine, it's highly likely it will get dirty more than once! The best mats are ones that you don't have to spend hours cleaning.Unfortunately, yes. Changing pads are usually made from plastic-like materials that are non-porous to prevent bacteria from growing. Plus, it makes them easy to clean. Some parents refer to the foam variety of changing pads as "silicone," but to our knowledge, there are no actual silicone changing pads. The average baby requires more than 2,000 diaper changes in their first year alone. Many of these diaper changes will take place when you’re out and about, and public changing tables are rarely cleaned well (1). Often, when you most need it, a changing table just isn’t available.

After each diaper change, roll the soiled diaper up into a ball and use the adhesive tabs to secure it. This is the best way to seal in the germs before transporting the diaper to a trash can or baby diaper pail.

Belts: A safety belt can come in handy if you have a busy baby or toddler who doesn’t like diaper changes. It will give you peace of mind that your baby won’t escape and potentially get hurt when you’re cleaning them up.
