Some things just make sense. Take for instance, baby nail clippers from Baby Light & Clip. It addresses the problem of clipping your infant’s nails in dim lighting. Even with the lights on, it is barely enough brightness when your face is a few inches away from your baby’s finger.
So the novelty of Baby Light & Clip is to put the light in the nail clipper itself to illuminate your baby’s fingertip while you trim away her nails. Simply brilliant, functional and practical.
Most moms tend to prefer clipping when their babies are asleep. I used to do it that way with my baby Clarisse. She tends to move about and can’t stay still when she’s awake. I can’t keep her fingers steady for more than a few seconds. So I had to trim her nails at night. It’s a hassle holding a small torchlight, nail clipper and her fingers at the same time.

Aesthetics aside, my sister explained and showed me how useful it is. It was my first time seeing a Maya Wrap type of baby sling in action. I was impressed!
