Comotomo: Cool new silicone baby bottles that are soft, gentle, and awesomely squishy
As a mom of three, I have checked out my fair share of bottles. Some are great while others…just awful. And during those sleepless days (and nights), it’s fair to say that a bottle that eases my mind, whether the baby is right in my arms while I work from...
A formula dispenser bottle that’s a game changer when you’re on the go.

We started Cool Mom Picks in 2006 to help make life cooler, easier, more organized, more meaningful, and more fun for parents of all kinds.
Trivia: It was called Cool Mom Sh*t for the first two days. (Yeah, we rethought that.)

And we still love what we do every single day.
We're so glad you're here.
