The Best Gifts for Parents of Babies and Toddlers
I like to call myself a “fashion parent.” By day, I’m Who What Wear’s executive shopping director; the rest of the time, I’m dad to a toddler with a newborn on the way. Naturally, my sense of style doesn’t stop at my own closet or with my work—it influences everything from my daughter’s wardrobe to the gear I use (yes, strollers can be stylish). With all of that in mind, I thought I’d curate a gift guide of some of my favorite pieces for parents with toddlers or babies. Because, to be honest, while I love getting fashion gifts for myself, I adore receiving items for my actual child even more.
You’ll certainly find adorable clothing options (because hello, fashion editor over here), like that sweater above. You’ll also find the stylish gear I mentioned, including investment must-haves, carriers, nursery staples, and accessories. Of course, I made sure to sprinkle in fun toys for the kids. Keep scrolling for all of that and more.
