It’s Baby Safety Month—our editors picked 9 products every parent should know about

September is Baby Safety Month —which focuses on educating parents + caregivers on the significance of baby safety and using products that are designed for specific age ranges. And while protecting our babies can feel a bit overwhelming, it is reassuring to know that manufacturers are doing the legwork to make sure products are up to par for kids of all ages.

In honor of Baby Safety Month, we rounded up some of our favorite products:
