Sometimes a product so good comes along, it’s hard to believe it’s true. Some might go as far as to call it a ‘miracle’.

We searched through all of our reviews to find these ‘miracle’ products and turned them into a handy list.

Here are nine products our reviewers can’t get enough of.

1. MooGoo Cradle Cap Scalp Cream

MooGoo Cradle Cap Scalp Cream 120g tube pack

Containing olive oil, tea tree oil, lavender oil, and rosemary oil, MooGoo scalp cream helps clear up dry flaky skin.

Parent review: “I have just recently used this on my 5-month-old baby. He had an area of cradle cap on top of his head. Within a few applications, this miracle cream was able to get rid of it in a way all the old wives’ tales methods just have not. Very happy to recommend.”

2. Aromababy Barrier Balm

Enriched with organic evening primrose, vitamin e, and calendula oils, Aromababy Barrier Balm can be used around the nappy area, massaged onto dry skin including skin affected by eczema or the scalp.

Parent review: “It is our miracle cream that we use on practically all general skin ailments. It has helped with eczema, scratches, itches, rashes … but more than anything it has soothed delicate baby bottoms that are raw from teething to smooth again the next day. So grateful that this product is available – thank you!”

3. Houdini Stop Baby Car Seat Harness Safety Strap

The Houdini Stop Chest Strap is a device that prevents your child from taking their arms out of their car seat straps. It consists of two simple clips joined by a length of material.

Parent review: “After countless tries of trying to stop little man skidding his arms through the seat belt we were told by some friends about this little miracle. Once on, it definitely stopped the arms skidding through and allowed us to travel without worrying about him escaping from the seatbelt (finally!).”

4. MAM Anti-Colic Bottle

The MAM Anti-Colic Bottle has a vented base to help reduce colic in babies and a self-sterilising function.

Parent review: “Miracle for a windy newborn. These bottles were recommended to us for our very windy baby. We had restless nights spending hours trying to burp our newborn. Once we introduced these bottles he would burp on his own straight after a bottle and was no longer uncomfortable. We have now been using these for 13 months. They are still in great condition”

5. Riff Raff & Co Sleep Toy

Riff Raff & Co Sleep Toy - Clover the Bunny

With its soft & snuggly fur, white noise, lullaby, and convenient dummy holder, the Riff Raff & Co Sleep Toy is designed to help your little one sleep.

Parent review: “Clover the miracle bunny. I’m absolutely so glad that I listen to my friend when she said they work, cause they really do! My babes would sleep maybe an hour sleep within the first month. I then purchased her clover, it was love at first sight. I did everything the booklet tells you to do and she now takes clover everywhere with her and sleeps through the night. We’re nearly 5months! Super happy with riff-raff we now have 3.”

6. Marcalan Nipple Cream

A soothing nipple cream for breastfeeding mums.

Parent review: “Miracle nipple cream! After 3 children and having my share of hard night feeds and damaged nipples Marcalan has always been my go-to! It works amazing soothing and healing wonders! I found it so essential and fabulous when I was breastfeeding I even buy it for friends and new mothers! I couldn’t recommend it more!”

7. GAIA Natural Baby Sleeptime Bath

GAIA Natural Baby Sleeptime Bath 250ml bottle 2020 new look

A gentle wash enriched with the calming essences of organic lavender and organic ylang ylang, which is recommended for use as part of your little one’s bedtime routine.

Parent review: “I love this product. It doesn’t smell overwhelming which is great for me as I’m sensitive to smells. It doesn’t bubble too much so if I accidentally use too much my bathroom doesn’t flood with bubbles as fun as that can be. It helps my baby calm down even if his having a bad day and won’t settle I will bath him with this and he instantly chills out. Miracle product.”

8. Weleda Baby & Child Calendula Nappy Change Cream

TMB 2021 Awards Highest Rated Nappy Rash Product - Weleda Baby & Child Calendula Nappy Change Cream

Weleda Baby & Child Calendula Nappy Change Cream naturally protects and cares for the delicate skin in your baby’s nappy area.

Parent review: “My midwife always told me about Weleda products and how good they are so I thought I would try this cream. By far the best nappy cream there is. My son rarely gets rashes but the odd one we did get from a different brand of wipes (which I only used once and never again) this cream cleared it all up and was gone the next day. Absolute miracle worker.”

9. Rite Aid Hydrogel Breast Discs

Rite Aid Hydrogel Breast Discs cool and soothe cracked and sore nipples to eliminate discomfort and pain experienced during breastfeeding.

Parent review: “If i could give 100 stars i would. My girlfriend dropped these to me midway threw the first week of newborn haze cause I was complaining of my nipples. What a life saver. They worked a miracle. The cooling sensation was amazing and the gel give my nipples some moisturiseration which I think awesome. 110% recomend.”
