✈️ 5 Diaper Bag Essentials for Travel with Baby

Image
  (+ One Bonus You’ll Be Glad You Packed!) Traveling with a baby doesn’t have to be overwhelming—it just takes the right prep. After many trips with our little one, I’ve learned that what you pack in your diaper bag can either make the journey smooth or... chaotic. Whether you're flying, cruising, or road-tripping, these five items are always in our bag—and they’ve saved the day more than once! 1. Favorite Spinner Toy (or Small Distraction Toy) Keeping baby entertained during wait times, flights, or car rides is a game-changer.

Traveling with a baby can seem overwhelming — but with a little planning, it’s absolutely possible (and even fun!).

Pro Tip: Invest in multi-purpose items — like a stroller that doubles as a car seat.  💡 Remember: You don’t have to pack everything — many baby essentials can be purchased at your destination if needed.

Why I Started Our Journey Travel

If someone had told me years ago that I’d start my own travel agency, blog, and Instagram account dedicated to helping families explore the world — I probably would’ve smiled and said, “That would be the dream.” And now here we are. Welcome to On Our Journey Travel. I'm so glad you're here. A Passion Rooted in Childhood My love for travel started when I was a child. It wasn’t just about the excitement of airplanes or vacations — it was about the stories, the history, the feeling of standing in a place I had once only seen in books. I’ve always been drawn to the richness of other cultures and the way travel helps you understand the world beyond your own.

Whether it’s cousins, in-laws, or friends — if someone needed help planning a trip, I was the one they called. I loved it. That’s when it clicked: What if I could do what I love and help others — and actually ...
