Tips for a Perfectly Organized Diaper Bag

There’s nothing better than heading out the door with peace of mind, knowing you’ve packed everything your little one might need. But what exactly should go in your diaper bag, and how do you keep it neat and organized? Below, we’re sharing our best tips and must-haves for a well-organized diaper bag — including some clever Jollein products you won’t want to leave home without.

What should always be in your diaper bag?

1. Luiers en billendoekjes
   Let’s be honest — diapers are non-negotiable! Always pack a few extras, just in case. And don’t forget the wipes — not only for diaper changes, but also for unexpected messes.

   • Tip: Store your wipes in a Jollein wipes case that keeps them fresh and makes them easy to grab. It’s stylish, durable, and a total game changer for your bag!
     
     

2. Changing mat
   A soft, compact changing mat is a must. It lets you create a clean surface for a quick diaper change anytime, anywhere.
   

3. Extra outfit
   Spit-ups, blowouts… anything can happen. Always pack an extra bodysuit, pants, and shirt.
   Pro tip: Roll up the clothes to save space and keep things tidy!
   

4. Bottles, snacks & pacifiers
   A happy baby = a happy outing! Don’t leave home without bottles, snacks, or baby food. And sometimes, a pacifier can be the ultimate lifesaver.
   

   • Pacifier tip: Clip a Jollein pacifier holder to the outside of your bag. That way, it’s always within reach — and no more digging through the bag!
     
     

5. Muslin cloths & bibs
   Muslin cloths are miracle workers! Use them as burp cloths, sunshades, or even light blankets. Don’t forget a bib — spills and messes are part of the fun.
   

6. Toiletries in a compact pouch
   Keep essentials like hand gel, ointment, or mini sunscreen in a small pouch. That way, you don’t have to rummage through your bag to find them.
   Jollein offers great pouches — perfect for toiletries or those random little items that otherwise get lost.
   

7. Toys for on-the-go
   A small toy or book can be a great distraction while you’re out and about. Just make sure it’s lightweight and compact so it doesn’t take up too much room.
   

How to keep your diaper bag organized

It’s easy for a diaper bag to become a chaotic mess — especially when you need something right now. These tips will help keep your bag tidy and functional:

• Make smart use of compartments

Diaper bags often have multiple pockets. Assign each one a category: diapers, feeding, clothing, etc. This way, you’ll always know where to find what you need.

• Organize with pouches

  Group small items into separate pouches: one for toiletries, one for wipes, another for random extras. This keeps everything neat and easy to access.

• Roll the clothes

  Rolling clothes saves space and helps keep your bag tidy. You can even roll an outfit (bodysuit + pants) together for a grab-and-go clean change.

• Keep essentials within reach

  Clip a pacifier holder or other frequently used items to the outside of your bag. It saves you time — and stress — when you need something fast.

• Do a weekly check

  Once a week, take a moment to check your bag. Restock what’s running low and remove anything you no longer need. That way, you’re always prepared.
