Baby Catalog carries a wide range of quality products. Here's a sampling of some you might be interested in:

Play dolls (like this cloth one) and collectible dolls from dollmakers like Lee Middleton and Madame Alexander. The Lee Middleton Baby Kyleen Doll has cloth hair and cloth eyes.


Children love interacting with the family. The dining table is more than a place for mealtimes. It's for playing, homework or simply just talking, enjoying quality time together. A child sitting at the same height as an adult at a table stimulates the development of confidence. TRIPP TRAPP® features a unique, adjustable footrest that brings the floor up to your child. This creates better balance and comfort, as your child can easily shift their weight. By sitting with the feet supported and elbows at table height, your child can move easily and naturally, and use their body without strain. It’s all about support, balance and movement.


Get a lightweight umbrella stroller like this one from Peg Perego for your older toddler who still sometimes needs a place to rest while you're on the go!


The Arm's Reach Co-Sleeper® keeps baby close to you at all times. You can rest comfortably and recuperate from childbirth while attending to baby without leaving your bed. This is a great, safe option if you're interested in cosleeping but are worried about having enough space for everyone.


A quality glider, like this model from Dutailier, is the perfect comfortable place to feed your baby. Pair it with a nursing stool for added support.


The Nurse EZ Plus is the ultimate nursing pillow for any mother, but the wide surface is especially perfect for anyone breastfeeding multiples. Offering perfect support for mom and foam surface to comfort baby.


The Derby Rocking Horse from KidKraft is a beautiful solid wood rocking horse that promises hours of imaginative play and would make a great gift for the little Cowboy or Cowgirl in your life. The KidKraft Derby Rocking Horse, with his stylish legs and soft mane and tail will surely become one of your child's favorite friends.
