In regard to materials, the best changing pads are made of high-quality, non-toxic, and hypoallergenic materials that are gentle on your baby’s skin. They should obviously be easy to clean and sanitize to prevent the buildup of bacteria and germs. This one-piece design by Bumbo is a perfectly shaped polyurethane pod to change your little stinker on without worrying they’ll stain any cute pad covers. This is a simple, modern-looking piece of gear that can be far more thoroughly cleaned than a foam or fabric pad. The best portable changing pads cover a large area without taking up to much room in your bag,” says Desmond. “Look for one that folds and unfolds easily — you’ll want to be able to do this with one hand if necessary. Also imperative, the changing pad needs to be wipeable and washable. It will get stuff on it, and you will need to make sure it is properly sanitized every few uses or whenever the moment calls for it. “ Comfort: Having a supportive changing pad will make changes more comfortable for your child. We still recommend thinner portable or disposable changing mats when traveling or in a pinch, just not for everyday changes. The foam material may produce crystals on the surface as moisture dries and are easy to wipe off. The crystals are essentially moisture being released and are harmless

If you’re short on space and have opted out of using a changing table, this pad may be the best solution. With its four raised sides, you don’t need a table, as this will fully cover any surface.

Parents who find themselves always on the go will need a safe and healthy way to change their babies away from their home changing tables. Portable changing stations are an excellent solution to this problem.That said: Always keep a hand on your baby. Never leave a child unattended on a dressing table, even for a moment, and even if they are strapped. One of the most important things to look out for when choosing a changing mat is that it's easy to clean. Whether it's a wipe-down version or one you can easily pop in the washing machine, it's highly likely it will get dirty more than once!

Unfortunately, the first disposable diaper designs were still difficult to use, so originally, they didn’t sell as well as expected. Today, approximately 90% of American parents use disposable diapers. That’s thanks to the many revisions to the original design. Disposable diapers are now lighter and more absorbent.Kate Desmond is a writer and infant safe-sleep expert.

Look at the portable changing station’s straps next. You’ll find most offer either a handle for easily carrying the pad, or a strap that can be attached to your wrist or your baby’s stroller.

With this, there's no need to buy additional fabric changing pad covers. In fact, other brand's changing pad covers don't fit this very well because the pad is also an inch longer than standard size, at 33 inches.Looks for added extras - is there a perfect-fit changing mat included or do you need to buy one separately?
