We are BIG @lovevery.au fans in this house 🤍

We’ve had the Play Kit subscription for almost a year now, plus the Play Gym, which was incredible during those newborn days 🥹

I love toys that are simple and open-ended, with no batteries, flashing lights and minimal plastic. The quality is unmatched, beautiful thoughtfully designed toys that encourage little ones to explore, problem solve and learn through play.

One of my favourite things about the Play Kits is that every box comes with a Play Guide explaining the developmental stage they’re in, how to introduce each toy and different ways to use them as they grow.

And most importantly, baby genuinely LOVES them. So many of our Lovevery toys have stayed in rotation long after their kit arrived, and I love watching him work things out and learn new skills through play 🤍

A little bittersweet opening our last kit before ONE 🥹

I’ve been a little MIA with a house full of sickness 🤧 but behind the scenes, I’ve been putting my new @brewingcultureau goodies to the test… and I am officially obsessed ☕️🤎

The Vacuum Seal Canister is my new favourite way to store our beans, and the Coffee Vac might just be one of those things you don’t realise you need until you have one.

As someone who somehow manages to get coffee grounds EVERYWHERE, anything that makes my coffee setup cleaner, easier and prettier is a win ✨

I’ve been using both for a couple of weeks now and am in love ☕️

I genuinely didn’t expect the @sharkhomeau StainForce to handle THIS much 😳

And it’s currently 40% off!

I originally thought it would be perfect for quick little spills and spot cleaning, but it surprised me with how well it worked for a much bigger clean too.

From everyday messes to those stains you’ve been putting off… this has definitely earned a spot in my cleaning cupboard 👏🏼

Comment STAIN and I’ll send you the link 🫶🏼

Coffee table? Ball pit? Why not both? 👀

Our son LOVES his ball pit, but I did not love picking up 100 balls 100 times a day 😂 Plus, it takes up so much space that I wanted to find a way to make use of it when it wasn’t being played with.

So now we have a coffee table too!

I used the @kmartaus Bouclé Foam Ball Pit + the top only from the Charles Coffee Table. Only $188 all up 🙌

It’s a little bouncy but surprisingly sturdy! Baby loves pulling himself up to stand and playing with his toys on the table, and when it’s time for the ball pit, we just lift the top off.

The balls stay contained, we get our coffee table back, and the ball pit isn’t taking over the living room all day 🤎

Obviously not the table’s intended use, so we supervise at all times and avoid putting anything heavy, hot or breakable on top.

I bought this because apparently carrying a baby AND a full basket of washing downstairs is my new personal workout 😂

The @josephjosephofficial Tota One has quickly become one of those little home upgrades that just makes life easier.

The removable insert is my favourite feature. I can carry it downstairs with one hand, baby in the other, empty it straight into the machine and put it back without having to mess around with Velcro every time.

Plus it’s a great size, looks sleek and minimal, and actually fits into our room without looking like an eyesore.

🛒 I’ve linked it in my Amazon Storefront
Comment LAUNDRY and I’ll send you the link.

Two weeks in, and there are three features that have really stood out.

1. The bucket seat has been the biggest win. It feels so much more comfortable, and naps on the go have become so much easier.
2. The oversized canopy and UV cover have been amazing, especially in the Brisbane sun. It’s been one of those features I’ve appreciated every time we’ve headed out.
3. And the shopping basket? A complete game changer. I didn’t realise how much I’d use it until I started fitting everything underneath without having to juggle extra bags.

So far, I’m genuinely impressed, and I’ll keep sharing honest updates as we continue using it.

If you have any questions about the Babybee Juno, leave them below and I’ll do my best to answer them. 🤍

The dinnerware that went viral is finally 50% OFF at @myer 🤍

I’ve had so many messages asking where this set is from, and now is honestly the best time to grab it. The Vue Bubble collection has that elevated, modern look without the luxury price tag. And at half price it’s such a good buy!

How do I convince my husband it’s a necessary purchase 🤣

⏰ Sale ends Sunday!

POV: your morning coffee ritual just got an upgrade. ☕️

It’s the little things that make home coffee feel like a café experience, and my @brewingcultureau tamp station is one of my favourite additions. It keeps everything organised, protects the bench, and makes every espresso feel that little bit more satisfying.

If you’re building your dream coffee setup without spending a fortune, I’ve found some amazing coffee gear on sale.

Comment “COFFEE” and I’ll send you all my favourite coffee finds currently on sale. 🤎

Don’t make the same mistake I did when buying your pram. 🤍

I was that person. I had my baby registry ready almost two years before I even fell pregnant. I spent countless hours researching, reading parenting books and watching every “baby essentials” video on YouTube… and I still chose the wrong pram.

The truth is, you can only prepare so much before you actually have a baby. There are things you just don’t realise until you’re living it every day.

I convinced myself I needed a compact pram because the single-to-double options felt too heavy and took up too much boot space. I loved that I could fold it one-handed and lift it into the car, but I was compromising on the things that actually mattered.

The seat wasn’t very comfortable, it sat so low to the ground that my baby was basically staring at my legs on every walk, and the basket only just fit our nappy bag with no room for anything else.

Fast forward a few months and carrying a growing baby every day made me realise those “heavy” prams really aren’t that heavy. Loading it into the boot isn’t a problem, and the one-handed fold isn’t something I even think about anymore.

Switching to the @babybeeprams Juno has been such a game changer. The basket is huge, the additional shopper basket is so handy, the seat is much roomier, and having my baby sitting higher at eye level has made walks and café trips so much more enjoyable. The biggest difference? My baby actually loves being in the pram now.

I chose the two-seat set with the toddler board, so we’re already set if our family grows. And of course, I went with the all-black colourway because it’s timeless, easy to clean and goes with everything.

If you’re choosing a pram, think beyond the newborn stage. Consider how you’ll actually use it every day, not just how it feels in the shop. I wish someone had told me that before I bought my first pram.

If you’re looking for the best coffee beans on earth - here they are.

I have been drinking @bellissimocoffeeau for over 5 years and they are just absolutely perfect every time 🙌 and they’re roasted and packed right here in Brisbane!

Ultimo is my favourite with the dark chocolate, brown sugar and toasted almond notes ☕️

P.S. sound on to enjoy chats with my baby 🤣

There really is nothing better than those 30 seconds when the whole house is clean at the same time. 🤍

Giving the kitchen a little reset with some of my favourites from @koalaeco

I genuinely can’t get enough of how good these products smell. They’re scented with Australian essential oils instead of synthetic fragrances, so my home feels fresh without the overpowering chemical smell.

A clean kitchen just makes everything feel a little calmer.

What’s the one room in your house that instantly makes you feel better when it’s clean? ✨
