The BabyBeReady Survival Kit is prepacked with first year essentials like diapers, travelwipes, onesie, sunhat, bib, rattle, pacifier, burp cloth, and bottle.Everything packed in a great bag with durable plastic overlay and clearzippered compartments that you can use later on. Empty, the bag also makes a great cosmetic case, travel tote, travel toy or arts supply bag for your kids.

Used by celebrity parents such as Mariska Hargitay, Jon Stewart, Katie Holmes, Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Garner, and Gwyneth Paltrow, the bag has just been gifted to Hollywood’s newest stars. Access Hollywood’s Nancy O’Dell (soon to be a mom, herself) sent Jacob’s Cure Smiley Bags to Patrick Dempsey for his twin boys and Marcia Cross for her twin girls.  The bags didn’t come empty, they didn’t come stuffed, they came double stuffed with 2 of everything for their babies.
