Sharing NIVEA for three generations.

It has been an awesome last week with my mum visiting from Perth to help me with the new baby. 

It was a great opportunity to get a three- generation photo and we had such fun. 

My little Summer always asks me to put my cream on her and having mum here reminds me of the times as little girls she used to share her cream with me and my big sister. 

NIVEA has become part of our bedtime routine. After the kiddies bath time is "lotion time" as Summer would say "lotion, lotion, lotion! 

I love the consistency and texture of NIVEA as you only need a little bit it as it goes a long way. I have found other creams in the past to be too watery and they don't leave that soothing moisturising feeling that NIVEA does. 

My top tips: 

1.Dry cracked heels: massage NIVEA creme into heels, pop on some socks and wear to bed and wake up with silky smooth heels.


2. I use NIVEA creme as a shaving cream for my underarms and legs. The thick consistency works really well and I don't need to use much at all. 

3. Make it a fun experience with the kids after bath time. This habit forming approach builds a strong routine that I know will pay dividends for them in the future.


4. I use it as a hand cream because it is so thick, I tend to wash my hands a lot because I'm changing the baby so often and NIVEA really soaks in and feels great.

 5. Hide from your hubby because I always catch him using it after he shaves. Now I just get him a small tin. 

   Thanks NIVEA for the great memories. xo

Air Protect technology by Maxi Cosi Moda

Since expecting bub number three I knew sooner than later I would be shopping for a new car seat.

In the past I would have bought the most reasonably priced car seat or well-known brand but there is a lot more than meets the eye when it comes to child car seat safety. You can’t just assume that a brand name is the best because it is well known.

Fortunately I was given the opportunity recently to review the new Maxi-Cosi Moda with Air Protect technology.

I had no idea there was so many different features and technology available in car seats.  I want to share with you what I've learnt about “Air Protect technology" which is built into the Maxi-Cosi Moda car seat and how it is designed to better protect a child.

Firstly, it’s important to flag that car airbags are designed and positioned to protect adult heads, not those of children.

So this makes your child’s head and chest extremely vulnerable to injury. In a side impact car crash, there is very little space between the car doors to the occupant sitting in the vehicle. All vehicles have been designed with front and back crumple zones but on a side impact there is hardly any space for car manufacturers to design in these “crumple zones” this increases the chances of the impact to be more sever.

Car crashes involving side impact collisions can be deadly and are increasingly common on Australian roads. Children of all ages involved in side impact collisions are at risk of head injury and fatality.  These are frightening facts, but brands such as Maxi-Cosi, Safety 1st and Mother’s Choice have been incorporating Air Protect™ Superior Side Impact Protection into their car seats to help provide a safer environment for children in cars.

How Air Protect™ Works

Air Protect™ is designed to reduce the severity of side impact crash forces by absorbing the energy and transferring that energy away from your child’s head. Air Protect™ does this by extending ride-down time, this is the amount of time it takes to slow a child’s movement in a crash. By extending ride-down time, Air Protect™ creates a slower, softer landing.

Aside from the safety aspects of the car seat which is really what you should consider first when selecting a car seat, I just love the below practicality features:

'Cool Baby' Wicking Fabric helps keep baby cool, dry and comfortable

Removable, machine washable covers with no need to re-thread the harness

Fabric back shield to provide additional protection to your vehicle

QuickFit Harness System adjusts harness height without removing seat from car

Lifetime guarantee on the fabric and shell.

I had no idea of the real dangers involved in a crash and how this type of technology can help protect my baby.  I certainly have a different perspective when looking for a new car seat I will always choose safety first.
