These 10 registry products will last from the newborn stage through toddlerhood

When it comes to registering for baby products, there’s one word we love: convertible.

In contrast to items you use for a short period of time, convertible (or multi-use) products are made to grow with your baby… and trust us, that makes them worth their weight in gold.

Convertible items allow you to reap the benefits of your baby registry for years to come—and that’s just savvy shopping, mama. Also savvy shopping? Creating your baby registry with Target and enjoying their Year of Benefits registry program for expectant parents. Just by starting your registry, you will get a welcome kit with more than $120 in coupons and samples, two 15% off coupons to complete your registry, and a full year of returns. And Target’s newest registry perk, the Year of Exclusive Deals, gives you discounts on essentials for your baby’s whole first year when you sign up for Target Circle as well.

If you prioritize value and longevity when creating your registry, here are 10 items you’ll love from day one through day 1,000… and beyond!

A crib that can grow through childhood + beyond

A crib is a necessity as you plan for life with your baby—you know that already. But what about in a couple of years when they need a toddler bed? Or a few years beyond that when they graduate to a bigger bed? Well, you’re in luck: With the right attachments, this bed can be the only one they need until college.

A cozy blanket for snuggles + security

Blankets have earned their spot on millions upon millions of registries for good reason: They function as stroller covers or play mats during the early days, then become beloved security items in the toddler years.

A comfy spot for feeding + stories

During your first months of motherhood, a comfortable gliding chair will be your second home as you spend time feeding and bonding. As your child grows (and mobility makes those snuggles harder to catch), you’ll discover a new love for this cozy spot for stories and bedtime snuggles.

Fun fact: A standard crib and toddler bed actually use the same size mattress. That’s why it’s smart to get a quality crib mattress right out of the gate: One less thing to change up in a few years!

A changing table that doubles as a dresser

If space is at a premium in your baby’s nursery, look for a combination changing table and dresser. That way, you can keep using the dresser long after your little one is potty trained.

A car seat that converts to a booster

The safest place for your child is in the backseat of your car, in either a car seat or (later) booster. But instead of buying a new seat for each phase, you can check off multiple boxes at once by adding a convertible car seat to your registry.

A stroller that accommodates big kids, too

The need for a good stroller doesn’t end when your little one learns to walk, so look for a stroller that can accommodate bigger kids, too. We recommend a jogging stroller that allows you to attach an infant car seat and is still perfectly spacious for toddlers.

A place to dine for years to come

From first bites to family dinners around the table, one single high chair can be the solution you need. That is, if you look for a version that adapts into a booster seat when your child is ready for a plate at the table.

A white noise machine + alarm clock in one

After spending months listening to ambient noise in the womb, white noise remains incredibly comforting for your child. It’s nice to have a sound machine that can transition to a time-to-rise clock down the line. By cueing with sounds and colors, these clocks reinforce healthy sleep habits.

A baby carrier that can haul a toddler, too

A carrier is a major help when your baby loves being held, but you need use of your hands. But even months or years down the line, you can still get use out of that carrier. To maximize longevity, look for one that can be used with your child facing outward or even carried on your back as they grow.
