- my TOP TEN list of [bare] essentials for a newborn and a NEW parent. It's not easy to become a parent and transition into a dramatically different phase of life. There are a few things that will help you with that transition, but there are A LOT of things that will make false promises and clutter up your home. My best advice is to go slowly. Pick out a few essentials to start out with, you can always fill in the holes as needed.

Thank you for this video and thank you for your outro *You're about to do the best thing ever.*
It's so refreshing to see other Mamas who enjoy the simple, quiet moments with their little ones and make them their priority. All of your videos are so lovely.
You are so kind! It’s so nice to get connected to like minded mamas.
Plural of mama is mamas, not mama's
I am so happy I found your channel. We grew up as a minimalist family of 8. And when i had my first child, thirteen years ago, minimalism went out the window! Because of marketing, parenting advice, hand-me-downs, mom guilt, and the never-ending baby competitions parents do. We now also have a 5, 4, and 2 year-old and we have 1/4 of what my first child had. And are so much happier. ❤
That is awesome! Great encouragement for other young moms. The marketing these days is SO POWERFUL and cuts right to the core of our fears as parents. I'd really like to get ahead of that for as many new moms as possible!
Your voice is extremely calming.
Thank you! 🥰
as a first time mom ,this was so helpful! it helps me refocus and not get pulled into the heavy consumerism . thank you ! ☺
You are so welcome! Congrats and all the best to you and your family!
You should read Simplify your Life with Kids. It's an amazing book. It goes by subjects and is like numbered bite sized information that you can apply in your life right away. It's a little book and I still reference it often after 13 years.
@@Katy_living_simply I’m excited to read it too!
Amazing content. Self-care when you're a brand new mom can be as simple as taking a hot shower, taking the time to lather lotion all over your body instead of just your arms and legs. Shaving your legs. Or even just detangling and combing out your hair fully and feeling how refreshing that feels. Keep it simple Mamas. ❤
So true!
At first, I was a tad nervous with that intro but decided to continue watching.... Calm, realistic, & mature approach. Thank you 🙏
Thanks! Admittedly the first part of this comment made me chuckle 🤭

Cool ^_^
Specifically, I was referring to "becoming a parent is incredibly hard ...."! Which is true but some first-time moms are already nervous & apprehensive 😅
But I enjoyed it. Even the minimalist lifestyle has always appealed to me, I feel as Americans, we do "spend/waste" quite a bit (compared to other nations. I think once I saw a Japanese vid that showed how a Japanese household contains mostly the stuff that are basic & necessary, yes part of it due to the tiny living spaces in the cities but that's when I started admiring the minimalist approach).
Keep up the good work, please
@@bella_m23 Thank you! Appreciate the encouragement ☺️

💕 You're most welcome.
For all the new Mamas i recommend reading Simplify your Life with Kids by Elaine St. James, There is No Such Thing As Bad Weather, and Simplicity Parenting. ❤ Amazing books that put things in perspective for a simple life.
Thanks for the tips!
Why am I watching this I’m not minimalist and am not planning to have kids for at least 10 years
😂
Do you have an updated video for 3mo+?
Not yet, but thanks for asking! I’ll start working on one.
I just use my stroller bassinet instead of a Moses basket 😄
That’s a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
