Since I got pregnant, I started checking out some maternity blogs to get some valuable tips. I can tell you – it`s not easy at all to be a mom in the city! Small restaurants (and a very large stroller!), subways without elevator (and full of people in a hurry) just to give you few examples. But anyway, I found this blog strollertraffic.com pretty helpful as it provides really relevant tips for moms living in NYC. Even though I think the layout is a little bit confusing – too much information – the content is amazing. I highly recommend it!

As an example, click on this link to check this tip out.

It`s a place called Baby Bubbles where you can drop the stroller and they clean it for you and delivery in less than 24 hours. This is fantastic because we all know that apartments here are very small and many of the buildings don`t allow you to leave the stroller outside in the hall, so you must put it into your apartment with those dirty wheels. Not mentioning that it`s hard to keep the seat clean with a baby eating there all the time. According to the post, the company is now offering baby clothes cleaning as well.

A one-time service costs $1.48 per pound (with a 10 pound minimum); subscription services are available as well, at a discounted rate. There are extra charges for comforters ($45), stuffed animals ($15), and coats ($25).

But back to the original idea of cleaning gear: stop by with a dirty stroller, carseat, highchair—you name it—and they’ll scrub and shine that, too. Pick up Baby Bubbles’ own All Purpose Spray and Wipe (it’s formulated with plant-based ingredients and is free of GMOs, VOCs, gluten, fragrance, and detergent) ($8.49), along with other handy items like City Stork Stroller Wheel Covers ($34.99).

You should really check the link because the post is very complete yet concise. Most of their posts are like these, which I found amazing. Moms need information but are always very busy so this format is perfect.

I`ll try this service the blog recommended and I`ll come back here with an update for you guys.
