The benefits of baby changing bags
There are countless benefits to owning a baby changing bag, and in the months after giving birth, a baby changing bag will pip your standard designer handbag to the post time and time again. Every time you leave the house, you'll need space for your own belongings, plus nappies, formula, tissues, toys, snacks, wipes and a whole host of other things. As such, according to Rachel Fitzd, Baby and Parenting Expert and Author, (@rachelfitzd), “you really do you want plenty of pockets.”
“Being super organised can save you hours in every week,” and a good quality baby changing bag will help you achieve that. “The pockets should be different sizes,” Rachel added, "and it helps if at least one is waterproof and has a zip.”
Another benefit? Your baby changing bag will be compatible with your pram, while your tote bag or beach bag will not. “It helps if it fits easily on your pushchair or pram and is robust enough to throw in the back of the car without the contents of the bag getting damaged.” It will also be durable, hardwearing and multi-use (yep: a good baby changing bag will double up as a fairly-stylish work bag or gym bag to boot).
Finally? Baby changing bags are much more comfortable to carry. “A backpack can be ideal as it leaves your hands free for picking up and carrying your baby when you're not taking your pushchair or pram."
What type of bags are used for baby changing?
There are quite a few different types of baby changing bag – so before you start shopping, it's worth considering which will best suit your needs and family.
- Holdall baby changing bags are perhaps the most common type of baby changing bag and resemble the classic weekend bag you already know and love. They have plenty of space – making them perfect for new mums with twins or big families – as well as multiple pockets. They often boast a detachable cross-body strap to help you carry the weight more comfortably.
- Rucksack baby changing bags are the easiest to carry and allow the use of both hands when you're out and about. Most baby changing rucksacks will boast multiple pockets, bottle holders and a small handle for easy lifting. “An over the shoulder bag can be tricky if you're also carrying/wearing your baby for long periods of time, and that's when I would recommend a backpack style,” Millie told us.
- Crossbody baby changing bags will likely come up slightly smaller than rucksacks and holdalls, but they're a trend-led option which can double-up as a stylish bag for work (or working out).
- Stroller baby changing bags are nappy bags which you can attach to your pram or pushchair. Again, they tend to be smaller, but pram organisers terminate any need to juggle bags and push your little one along at the same time.
- Tote baby changing bags don't always come with a baby changing mat, but they're a great option for working mums. Think: plenty of space, multiple pockets and, oftentimes, clips to team up with your pushchair.
What are some features that a baby-changing bag should have?
“Like any product you should always think about the longevity of what you are buying,” Millie said. “A good investment means that you can use it for many years and future babies too whilst being environmentally conscious.” It's worth considering the following features in your quest for the perfect nappy nag:
- Lightweight: You're going to be carrying this bag around all day. While space is important, opt for something that doesn't feel too heavy, like Storksak's Poppy Luxe bag.
- Space: Space is paramount. Opt for a nappy bag with multiple pockets to keep wet clothes separate from dry clothes; snacks away from toys.
- Insulated pockets for keeping milk warm: At least one of said pockets should be thermo-insulated to keep your milk formula warm.
- Changing mat: There's not much point in buying a baby changing mat without the mat. Sure, there are some good options down below that come sans mat if you have a solid reason not to buy one, but if you're a first time mum, ensure your nappy bag comes with a large, fold-out mat attached.
- Waterproof: Having something wipe clean or waterproof is super handy. Kids are prone to spillages.
- Buggy clips: The best baby changing bags, in our opinion, come with detachable stroller clips. This will help you go hands-free when you're walking with your pushchair.
How we tested the best baby changing bags:
There are many new mums in the extended GLAMOUR family, who have tested these travel bags based on comfort, durability, delivery (free delivery? - even better) and functionality. Basically, how many pockets they have and whether the insulated linings are actually effective. For the changing bags we’ve not yet tested (we’re working our way through them – promise), we’ve delved deep into customer reviews, retailer stats and specifications to ensure we’re recommending products that actually do their job.

The iconic Burberry print gives the bag a classic and timeless look that will never go out of style.

Cons: Shorter women, take note. One reviewer said that the straps are not suitable for small (5ft4) women, as you have no option to make them smaller. This makes the bag uncomfortable to wear as it is not close to the back at all and straps fall off the shoulders.
