How to trust us

We don't run sponsored posts and we don't take payment for placement. We score gear on the NewMom Index before any affiliate link goes on the page, and when you buy through our links we may earn a small commission — which is what keeps the site free. If something isn't worth it, we'll tell you to skip it. That's the whole deal.
