DIY Tips to Live By for Baby’s First Family Photoshoot

by Whitney C. HarrisOctober 11, 2023

There’s no reason you can’t be the mastermind behind your own baby photoshoots

You’ve probably been taking impromptu pics of your baby since day one—an unexpectedly adorable expression here, a snuggly selfie there. But wouldn’t it be nice to have a few really good shots of your growing family? Yes, you could hire a professional photographer to create the perfect experience, or you could get creative and do it yourself (which can be a lot more fun!). With the holiday season on the horizon, you have a great excuse to get everyone together for some quality, photo-worthy time, and then share the amazing snaps from your baby photoshoot with friends and family on Tinybeans (check out our app here!).

Here’s how to plan and execute your DIY photo shoot.

1. Enlist a friend or family member

Do you have a teenage niece or nephew who’s passionate about photography? What about a neighbor with a really great DSLR camera? Call in a favor and ask if that artsy pal of yours would be interested in setting aside an hour or two to capture your family for a moment in time. Offer to return the favor in some way (especially if he or she has a family to be photographed!), and say “thanks” with a gift card to a nice restaurant or a bottle of wine and some gourmet chocolate.

2. Nail the timing

Think about your baby’s fluctuating energy and moods throughout the day, and pick a time when you know your little one will be the most calm and content. For some, this is first-thing in the morning. For many, this is right after a nap or feeding. Be flexible with your baby photoshoot and work around the youngest one’s temperament. Also, if you’ll be shooting outside, try to maximize the natural light by taking advantage of early morning or late afternoon rays, but avoid the harsh overhead sun at midday.

3. Coordinate outfits—without being matchy-matchy

We’re all familiar with the matching khaki pants and crisp white shirt look found in countless family photos. While you want to look cohesive, don’t feel obligated to match outfits, which can look canned and inauthentic. Instead, decide on two or three colors (at least one being a neutral) that you will use as your inspiration and find outfits that fit the bill. Simple, solid (non-patterned) clothing is always a safe bet.

4. Carefully consider props

Think about what toys and objects mean something to you and your little ones. If your child has a favorite, love-worn stuffed animal, why not include it in the shot? Be selective, but try a few different props that are unique to your family. And be sure to bring plenty of soft blankets to lay on the grass, curl up in, and play peek-a-boo with.

5. Get low and close

If you’re all sitting on a blanket or casually lying down on the grass, ask your photographer to get as low to the ground as possible so you’re all at the same eye level. And see if he or she is willing to do some close-up shots in addition to wider angles. The variety will make for a really nice collection of photos.

6. Be goofy

Encourage everyone to be silly in an effort to get the baby to laugh and smile. Too often, parents are focused on “looking” polished and perfectly happy in their first baby photoshoot. But feeling carefree in the moment and trying to have fun will result in nicer, more natural images.

7. Forget the camera

Some forward-facing shots are a good idea, but try not to focus on where the camera is at all times. Ask the photographer to move around and achieve different angles that way, rather than trying to coax your baby to turn in a specific direction. Candid shots can be unique and just as gorgeous as posed photos.

8. Don’t stop shooting

If your pal hasn’t photographed babies or tots before, kindly explain that fast-moving little ones make for difficult models so he should use continuous shooting mode and keep snapping. Chances are, one or two of the series will be the perfect pic.

9. Take turns

A big, happy family photo is a great idea, but don’t hesitate to take turns experimenting with who’s in the photo. Take some with just kids, just Dad and baby, just Mom and baby, and all potential iterations. Don’t get too preoccupied on everyone being in same photo.

10. Just go with the crazy

If you have an older toddler running around in circles or your newly crawling baby wants to be on the move, grab a kid, have your partner do the same, and flip them upside down for a playful shot. If tears or tantrums are part of the mix, don’t stress. They can actually make for great, memorable photos.

For parents who want to share special moments with friends and family without making it a public display, there’s the Tinybeans app (you can learn more and download here!). The secure platform puts parents in total control of who sees and interacts with photos and videos of their kids.

We Asked an Expert Your Car Seat Questions—Here Are Their Responses

by Kenzie KramerDecember 14, 2021

Between finding the right car seat, installing it correctly and making sure it fits, keeping your little one safe on the road is a big task. We teamed up with Nuna, the creators of parent-approved car seats like the Nuna PIPA lite rx, and car seat expert Bob Wall, a leader in the Child Passenger Safety field for over 30 years, to answer your questions.

First up, “How do I pick a car seat?” Here’s what Wall had to say:

The short answer to this question is, read the specifics of the seat you’re looking at and match it to your child’s weight and height and their developmental level. There is a car seat out there to fit all sizes of children, you just need to match the seat to your child.

This sounds easy, but there are several other considerations.

How easy is the car seat to use?
Does it fit in your vehicle?
Does it fit your personal lifestyle and family’s needs?
Does it accommodate your child’s needs?

Nuna PIPA lite rx has a no-rethread harness that adjusts seamlessly with the headrest so you don’t have to reinstall the harness when your child grows—a win for safety and for comfort. Learn more about PIPA lite rx.

"How Do I Know If My Car Seat Is the Right Size for My Child?"

The different types of car seats are designed to target specific weights, sizes, and ages of children. The primary categories are infant-only, convertible, harness to booster (combination) and booster. Some of these categories have child-size and direction overlaps, and choosing the correct seat could be confusing.

Infant-only seats start at 4 or 5 lbs and are rear-facing only. Convertible seats also start at approximately 4 or 5 lbs and can be forward-facing after the child uses it in the rear-facing mode until its maximum weight and height, and the child is at least two years of age. Harness to booster (combination) seats are forward-facing only seats that can be used right after the rear-facing seat has been maxed out by the child's height or weight. The child would use this seat forward-facing with the harness until the child outgrows the seat and can be placed in a booster. Booster seats vary in size but most start at 40 lbs and an age minimum—typically age four or five). The booster would be used with the vehicle’s seat belt to ensure the child fits the belt correctly.

"At What Age/Weight Should I Change My Child’s Car Seat from Rear-Facing to Front-Facing?"

The American Academy of Pediatrics and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recommend that infants rear face as long as possible until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by their car seat manufacturer. Most convertible car seats have limits that will permit children to ride rear-facing for two years or more. Having your child rear-face as long as possible is the safest way for them to ride. A rear-facing car seat will support the child’s extremely vulnerable head, neck, and spine. When children ride forward-facing, their heads—which are disproportionately larger and heavier for babies and toddlers—can jolt forward, possibly resulting in spine and head injuries.

Remember: When your child has outgrown their rear-facing seat, secure them in a forward-facing car seat with a harness for as long as possible, up to the highest weight or height limit allowed by the car seat manufacturer.

Nuna PIPA lite rx has both belt path and base installation options to make it easier to use on the go. Learn more about PIPA lite rx.

"If I Was in a Car Accident, How Do I Know If My Child’s Car Seat Is Still Okay to Use?"

If you have been involved in a minor crash then we recommend you follow the NHTSA guidelines: NHTSA recommends that car seats be replaced following a moderate or severe crash in order to ensure a continued high level of crash protection for child passengers.

Car seats do not automatically need to be replaced following a minor crash.

A minor crash is one in which ALL of the following apply:
• The vehicle was able to be driven away from the crash site.
• The vehicle door nearest the car seat was not damaged.
• None of the passengers in the vehicle sustained any injuries in the crash.
• If the vehicle has airbags, the airbags did not deploy during the crash; and
• There is no visible damage to the car seat.

NEVER use a car seat that has been involved in a moderate to severe crash. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions.

"What’s the Safest Place to Put the Car Seat? Behind Driver, Middle, behind Passenger?"

All seats in the rear are safe if the child seat is installed correctly and you can install it correctly on every trip. The discernment of “center is safest” originates from the center location being the farthest point from any intrusion into the passenger seating area during a crash. Generally, the safest location in the vehicle is the center rear of the vehicle. However, this is not always the case, the center seat may not be compatible with the seat you are using or there could be a practicality issue depending on your situation. An example would be: If you want the youngest in the center because it's “the safest”, but to get the baby in the center you have to lift the infant carrier over the other seat or child. Or it could be as simple as you are unable to install it as well in the center as you can on the sides. The center seating location is only the safest if you can use it correctly every time the child is in the vehicle. To say the center rear is the “safest” is not saying the other seating positions in the back are not safe—they are.

"What If My Child Is in the Height Range to Switch to a Booster Seat but Not Out of the Weight Range?"

Boosters main job is to ensure the child can sit securely using the lap and shoulder belts in the vehicle by lifting the child up so the belt fits correctly. These are called belt-positioning booster seats, and to ensure your child is meeting the criteria to move to a seat belt, you should follow the 5-Step Seat Belt Fit Test.

1. Shoulder belt crosses between the neck and shoulder.

If the shoulder belt is too close to the neck, kids can be tempted to put it behind their back for comfort. A shoulder belt that sits off the shoulder can slip off during a crash, reducing its ability to protect.

2. Lower back is against the vehicle seat.

If the child is sitting with their bottom forward to allow their legs to go over the edge of the seat to feel comfortable, a gap is created between their back and the seat. This will cause the seat belt to ride up out of position onto their belly. It can also introduce slack in the seat belt, allowing the child to move forward more during a crash. Both of these can cause increased injury in a crash.

3. Lap belt stays on the upper thighs across the hip bones.

If the lap portion of the belt is across the soft tissue of the abdomen (like will happen if their back isn’t against the vehicle seat), it can damage internal organs in a crash.

4. The knees bend at the end of the seat.

Kids will scoot their bottom forward to let their knees bend comfortably, increasing their risk of injury because the seat belt rides up off of their hips and onto the soft part of their belly. They need to be tall enough to have their knees comfortably bend at the edge of the seat.

5. The child can ride like this for the entire ride.

We don’t expect the child to be perfectly still while riding in the car. And their movement or readjustment to stay comfortable cannot lead to the seat belt getting out of position. When children get uncomfortable, they tend to slouch, lean to one side or put the shoulder belt behind them. When the seat belt is out of position, it cannot properly protect the child during a crash.

Important Guidelines:

Purchase your convertible car seat no later than your child’s first birthday, according to Consumer Reports.
A convertible car seat can be installed forward-facing or rear-facing, but experts at the American Academy of Pediatrics recommend you keep it rear-facing for safety as long as possible. Some states require rear-facing until your child’s second birthday.
You can use a convertible car seat from birth, or you can start with an infant car seat and then switch to a convertible before your child’s first birthday. An infant car seat lets you remove the seat from the base and move between the car, stroller and other locations without waking a sleeping baby. But it is an additional expense.
Some convertible car seats are marketed as all-in-ones, 5-in-1s, 4-in-1s or 3-in-1s, meaning they convert from an infant seat into a convertible car seat and then a booster seat, extending the time you can use them.

It then converts to a booster seat for up to 10 years of use (4-120 pounds).

The recalled seats are for children nine to 70 pounds and have found to not adequately protect from head injury if involved in a crash, when installed in the forward-facing position and secured using the lap belt without also using the top tether. Keep reading to see more details of the recall.

When used in both the rear and forward-facing modes with children up to 65 pounds according to proper installation methods, all models can continued to be used. As of now, there have been no issues of injuries reported.

Currently, the NHTSA has not released a course of action if you have the affected seats. However, if you have questions, you can contact a Maxi-Cosi customer service representative by calling 877-657-9546, emailing Pria85recall@djgusa.com or visiting consumercare.maxicosi.com/s/contactsupport.

8 Car Seat Tips Every Parent Needs to Know

By Joshua Dilts

As parents, it’s our number one priority to keep our children safe and kids spend a lot of time in the car from daycare drop-off to weekly errands. In fact, new Chicco research* commissioned ahead of Baby Safety Month this September found that 42% of children spend four or more hours in their car seats in a typical week. It’s important that parents take the time to find a car seat that provides optimal comfort and safety for little ones. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!

Here are 8 tips parents need to know when it comes to buying, installing and using a car seat properly:

1. Don’t purchase a car seat solely based on weight limits, it’s a balance of height, weight, and correct stage: When buying a car seat, it’s important to look at both the weight and height limits of the car seat. Usually, children outgrow height limits before weight, so it’s important to find a car seat that can grow taller with your child. Parents should primarily focus on ease of install, child fit, and comfort—all of these elements play a critical role in traveling safely every time.

2. Comfort plays a role in safety: Comfort is more important than some may think when it comes to car seat safety. A comfortable car seat means children are less likely to wiggle around and stay seated in the correct position in their car seat for the duration of each ride. In addition to contoured seat design, consider unique fabric innovations, such as the Adapt® line of car seats from Chicco that use fabrics with patented 37.5® Technology, which employs natural volcanic minerals to help keep children at the ideal relative humidity of 37.5%.

3. Perform this easy at-home test to make sure your car seat is installed securely: When it comes to car seat installation, 55% of parents do not know or are not sure what the ‘inch test’ is. It’s a simple at-home way to check if your child’s car seat is secure. After installing, grab the seat at the car seat belt path and pull side to side and front to back. If the car seat moves more than one inch in any direction, uninstall and start the process over until a secure fit is achieved and your installation can pass the ‘inch test.’

4. Know when it is the right time to turn your child forward-facing: Parents often want to turn their child forward-facing when baby’s legs touch the back of the vehicle seat. However, the American Academy of Pediatrics’ (AAP) recommendation is to maximize each car seat mode of use and wait until your child reaches the maximum weight or height limits of the rear-facing car seat.

5. Winter coat protocol: With the weather turning cooler in the coming months, it’s a good idea to clear up confusion about winter coats and car seats. 40% of parents say it is recommended for a child to wear a winter coat in a car seat with a five-point harness or they are unsure. However, best practice is to remove baby’s bulky coat before car rides as it can give a false sense of harness tightness. In a crash, down or poly fill compresses, which means, underneath all that fluff, you have a child in a harness that is too loose.

6. Understand the harness position on car seats: With car seats, it’s important to adjust the harness as your child grows. In rear-facing installations, make sure the harness strap is at or below the child’s shoulders. For forward-facing, make sure the harness strap is at or above the child’s shoulders.

7. Use available resources when you have a question: When installing a car seat, it’s extremely important to seek and use resources rather than winging installation. Use the car seat manual, QR codes and online resources to make sure you are installing your car seat securely, correctly, and safely.

8. Avoid hand-me-down car seats when you can: According to Chicco’s research, a surprising third (34%) of parents use an older sibling’s car seat, hand-me-down from a friend or family member, or purchase a used seat via sites such as Facebook Marketplace. While it’s not necessarily unsafe to re-use a car seat from a family member or friend, it is extremely important that you know the car seat’s history and check both the expiration date and any outstanding recalls.

For parents looking for additional car seat safety information, ChiccoUSA offers a variety of resources from how to choose a car seat, car seat comparisons and step-by-step installation videos.

*Results based on Chicco survey of 1,004 parents in August 2021

The Best Gear for a Day at the Beach with Babies & Toddlers

by Julie SegussAugust 12, 2021

Before you head back to the beach, check out this must-have beach gear for babies and toddlers. You’ll find everything you need, from a baby beach tent to swim diapers. Read on for beach gear essentials that guarantee maximum fun in the sun.

Pin this list now on Pinterest and read later!

A Beach-Themed Book

The Little Observers: At the Beach board book by Clare Beaton can help your little one get excited for your shore outing before you leave. And while you're there, use the book to point out what animals they're seeing, the sounds they're hearing, and what they might find in the sand. Read it together, or let your child page through the colorful images on their own.

Available here, $9.99.

Sandy Bumz

Genius, right? Sandy Bumz is a lightweight, easy to use cover that works for the beach, parks and other outdoor areas. The waterproof material keeps you, your kids and valuables dry, while the pop-up edges keep pesky sand and critters at bay.

Available here, $29.

Baby-Friendly Sunscreen

Babies' sensitive skin needs serious protection from the sun. Opt for a mineral formula like the zinc oxide-based Baby Bum SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen Lotion, which provides lightweight, non-greasy coverage without chemical sunscreens, parabens or other ingredients you may not want to put on your baby. It's packed full of coconut oil, shea butter and cocoa butter to hydrate baby's skin while it protects it from the sun's harsh rays.

Available here, $13.99.

A Cooler and Umbrella Stand Combo

There's one thing that's certain when you are heading to the beach with kids, you're going to have your hands full. We love this umbrella stand and cooler combo because it keeps your umbrella from blowing away and your drinks cool at the same time.

Buy it here, $49.99.

Serious Sun Protection for the Whole Family

For the ultimate sun safety, keep your little one's delicate skin shaded with a wide-brimmed hat, and add a sun-protective rash guard or bathing suit along with sunscreen. Snapper Rock suits contain UPF50+ sun protection and block 98% of harmful UVA and UVB rays. Find cute suits for babies, toddlers, bigger kids and even adults.

Available here.

A Stroller Made for Sand

Parent pro tip: Dragging strollers behind you is the easiest way to make your way through sand. Better yet, regular beachgoers need the Priam stroller from Cybex. Put the luxury stroller into two-wheel mode and it's perfect for cruising on sandy beaches with all your gear until you find the perfect sunny spot. This sleek stroller features all-wheel suspension for a smooth ride wherever you are, a carrycot with mesh windows to keep baby cool, one-handed recline and folding, and a seat that can be placed forward-facing or parent-facing.

Available here, $999.95 to $1,699.95.

A Soothing Balm

Wind, sand and sea water can all dry out a baby's sensitive skin, so your beach bag should include this moisturizing balm, which comes in a convenient stick. The Balm Stick from Pipette is free of synthetic fragrances, hypoallergenic, cruelty-free and vegan. Rub it on chapped lips, red cheeks, and any other area that could use some soothing. Use it on yourself, too!

Available here, $9.

Cozy Hooded Towels

Hooded towels aren't just for bath time. They're the perfect way to keep baby warm on breezy beach days. We love Green Sprouts' cheery, soft towels made from organic cotton muslin and knitted terry. They even have hand pockets for maximum coziness.

Available here, $24.99.

Effective Reusable Swim Diapers

If you're swimming a lot this summer, go for a reusable diaper in an adorable print like those from Bambino Mio. They're less bulky and likely to fit better than their disposable counterparts, so messes are less...messy. They come in an array of fun prints, including blue squid, green frogs, pink mermaids, and purple seahorses.

Available here, $15.49.

Prefer the convenience of a disposable swim diaper? Read on.

The Smart Disposable Swim Diaper

Hello Bello Swim Dipes have a clever core that avoids soggy balloon butt, thanks to the material's plant-derived, high-integrity bonded fiber. The advanced leak guard prevents waste from escaping, while the fit stretches and moves with your child. These swim diapers are hypoallergenic and made without latex, parabens and phthalates. Size small is like a diaper size 3, designed for 16-28 pounds (about 12-24 months).

Available at hellobello.com, $8.99.

A Fun Float

In calm waters, let baby laze around on this fun watermelon float from Big Mouth. Made for age 1 and up, the float features leg holes and a supported seat that helps keep baby upright. Pair with a baby life jacket (like Stearns' Puddle Jumper, below) for additional water safety and always stay within arms' reach.

Available at amazon.com, $19.98.

A Comfortable Life Jacket

Wearing a Puddle Jumper helps toddlers play in the water with slightly more freedom. This US Coast Guard-approved life jacket comes in soft woven polyester and an array of fun, kid-friendly prints. While kids can float independently wearing one of these, parents or another responsible adult should always stay nearby and provide "touch supervision," meaning they're close enough to reach the child at all times. Designed for kids 30-50 pounds.

Available here, $19.99.

Baby's Paddling Pool

The youngest of babies can splash around safely in the Spläsh pool from bblüv. Made from durable waterproof fabric (so you can place it on a beach blanket or in a tent), this pool comes together quickly by inserting the included noodle foam into the pool's liner. Add a little water and baby stays cool and can splash like the big kids. It comes with a collapsible bucket that's great for holding beach toys. Fold and store it in its carry bag, also included.

Available at amazon.com, $29.99.

Is your babe too big for this pool? Read on.

Packable Pool

For toddlers, pack a small baby pool like this one, which can be stored in a flat zippered bag when not in use. Fill with a little ocean water and add a few small toys. If you're lucky, baby will play happily, stay cool and never realize they can scale the sides!

Available at hearthsong.com, $39.98.

The Coolest Shades

Babiators carries cute sunglasses in sizes 0-6+, with UV400 lenses that provide 100% UVA and UVB protection. The frames are made from flexible rubber, and the lenses are impact- and shatter-resistant. Add the silicone strap to keep baby from ripping off their shades. Because they will definitely try.

Available here.

The Perfect Pop-up Tent

A beach tent, especially one thats folds flat and is easy to set up, is a smart way to keep your little one safe from the sun. We love this stylish option from Pottery Barn Kids. Set out some fun toys for playtime, and use it for beach naps or a private nursing spot.

Available at potterybarnkids.com, $58.99 (small) or $76.99 (large).

The Do-It-All Beach Bag

This beach tote is more of a system than a simple bag. It comes complete with 4 buckets and 2 shovels, perfect for introducing baby to the art of making sand castles, along with a soft cooler to keep snacks and bottles chilled, and outside pockets for important extras. Everything fits into an easy-to-carry shoulder bag so you have one arm free for baby. You'll definitely find uses for this bag long after the baby stage.

Available at mybeachmate.com, $129.

Shady Spot

With Fisher Price's On-the-Go Baby Dome, your baby can nap or play outside, since its dual canopy system blocks sun from all angles. You'll also love that the whole thing folds flat, making it easy to take anywhere. It can also be used indoors.

Available at amazon.com, $59.

Sand & Surf Shoes

If your little one is walking, protect feet from hot sand, rocky terrain and slippery puddles with a pair of Stride Rite Phibians. The extra-grippy, flexible sneaker is made for playing in and out of water. Beyond the beach, they're your go-to shoe for splash pads and swimming pools.

Available at striderite.com, $35.

Innovative Safety Features Galore

Multi-Directional Tether

The KNOX's Multi-Directional Tether reduces seat rotation and stress on a child’s head and neck in the event of an impact. When used in rear-facing mode, the Multi-Directional Tether reduces the potential for injury by 45%* (*Data based on crash tests conducted at independent labs in the United States and Canada.)

SMARTSecure™ System

Parents, this is genius. It’s safety you can see, and it’s going to make your life so much easier, with a lot less worry while you're on the road. This unique technology utilizes a tightness indicator and robust tensioning clips to provide a visual confirmation of correct installation each time.

Koroyd® Technology

Developed from aerospace safety research, innovated for action sports, and now built into the base of the KNOX car seat—just, wow. This exclusive partnership is a child safety industry first! The result is that the Koroyd technology provides more advanced impact protection. The welded tube structure crumples instantly and consistently on impact, absorbing maximum force in a controlled manner to minimize energy transfer to the child. Bottom line: You can’t get more high-tech than this.

Energy Response Technologies = Safety to the MAX

UPPAbaby’s KNOX boasts a whole family of features, designed to protect and provide unparalleled side impact protection including:

Active Support Headrest is heads above the rest. Utilizing the absorption and recovery properties of specialized foams, KNOX's headrest provides advanced side impact protection around the child’s head and neck and adjusts to ensure correct positioning as your child grows.

Side Impact Pods are a small feature that makes a big difference. Located on the side of the shell and always engaged, the pods absorb and deflect crash forces in the event of a side-impact crash.

Impact Dispersion Zone EPP foam strategically placed between the inner and outer shell absorbs crash forces, further protecting the child.

They seriously have every little detail down. Here's even more tech to keep your little one safe in case of impact:

Recline Indicator: The labeling system provides clear instructions on what positions are acceptable for Rear-Facing and Forward-Facing modes.

Two-Piece Fit Inlay: The inlay allows for flexibility and proper fit in the harness system, promoting optimum recline.
