With so many baby products out there it’s hard to navigate what you actually need, and what is actually useful during pregnancy and those early years! Most of us have seen the golden lists of products and tips that have been circulated through friend groups during pregnancy, and we wanted to create an episode that gives you the low-down on what products you will actually need when having a baby!

We’re chatting to the amazing Phoebe Simmonds, co-founder of the Memo. In this chat we discuss what our top tips are for baby products, what every new mum needs, the products you don’t need, and the products to buy before baby arrives vs after baby is here. So many great tips for new Mums, seasoned Mums or those looking for the perfect baby shower gift! 

Alongside her co-founder, Kate Casey, Phoebe has built a retail destination and community for parents that's supportive, educational and trust-worthy.  Phoebe is also a mother to her step-son Tyler (7yrs old) and her son Remy (2 yrs old).

Phoebe is also the founder of The Blow, an iconic blow-dry bar in Melbourne. She has previously worked in brand and marketing for LVMH as Marketing Director at Benefit Cosmetics in London, Singapore and Sydney.
