Changing Bags

Which changing bag should you choose? For everyday outings, an insulated diaper bag backpack keeps your hands free for the pushchair; for the maternity ward and weekends, a large hospital bag with an XL changing mat; for bottles only, a compact insulated bag. The criteria that matter day to day with your baby: a weight under 900 g, dedicated compartments for nappies, bottles and changing, with a pocket that keeps clean items apart from dirty ones, a water-repellent fabric that wipes clean with a sponge, and an included changing mat to set up a clean changing spot anywhere. Here Securidou brings together its selection, from the everyday insulated backpack to the large hospital bag, designed for relaxed outings.

Which changing bag should you choose for your needs?

• For everyday outings: the insulated diaper bag backpack, light (820 g), worn on the back, hands free for the pushchair.
• For the maternity ward and weekends: the hospital bag, large size, with an XL changing mat included and a suitcase sleeve.
• For bottles on the go: the insulated bottle bag, compact, double compartment, two ice packs included.
• To take everything when travelling: the Station Nomade, which unfolds into a clean changing and nap space.

How do you choose the right changing bag?

A few criteria make the difference day to day with your baby:

• Weight: under 900 g, the bag stays comfortable even when packed for a whole day.
• Organisation: dedicated compartments (nappies, bottles, changing, with clean items kept apart from dirty ones) save you rummaging through everything at every stop.
• Water-repellent fabric: a fabric that wipes clean with a sponge resists splashes and light rain.
• Ways to carry: back, shoulder, handle or suitcase sleeve, depending on whether you are pushing the pushchair or carrying your baby.
• Insulated compartment: a thermal lining keeps bottles at temperature.
• Included changing mat: it lets you set up a clean changing spot anywhere, in a few seconds.

Frequently asked questions about changing bags

Diaper bag backpack or classic bag? The diaper bag backpack spreads the weight over both shoulders and frees your hands to push the pushchair or carry your baby, whereas a classic shoulder bag tires a single shoulder over a busy day. For everyday use, the backpack is the more comfortable option.

Which colour of changing bag should you choose? A black changing bag goes with everything and hides signs of wear; a beige or light colour matches a neutral-toned pushchair. Our backpacks come in several colours so that both parents can wear one without hesitating.

What weight for a practical changing bag? Aim for less than 900 g empty. Beyond that, the bag quickly becomes heavy once filled for the day. Our diaper bag backpack weighs 820 g, the insulated bottle bag only 330 g.

Is an insulated changing bag useful? Yes for bottles: a thermal lining keeps them at temperature, without an ice block for warm milk, with ice packs for cold milk. It is the criterion that changes everything for outings of several hours.
