We leave extra clothes there and have a little cooler bag for the bottles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1010120 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 11:06:18 +0000 prettylizy 1010120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but she didn't start daycare until she was 1. For the first 6-8 months I used her diaper bag as a purse, then I missed my bags so I swapped out. Now we just use the same diaper bag for ourselves and for daycare. I also find that if we're just going out for a quick trip I can trow wipes and a diaper in my bag and not carry a full diaper bag anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1010109 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 11:02:39 +0000 edelweiss 1010109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have a separate diaper bag (a diaper dude backpack) for daycare. while the main thing we transport are bottles/food, we have a long ride on public transportation so i don't want to get caught without supplies if there's a blowout/LO needs a change of clothes/LO has a fever and needs tylenol, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009701 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 09:29:21 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 1009701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, but only because we do cloth diapers. It's a small canvas bag that I got at a baby shower (it had gifts inside). I use it to tote the diapers each day and his bottles. Daycare has cubbies for each kid to keep clothes, extra food, etc, but they put the empty bottles in the little tote bag throughout the day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009664 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 09:18:20 +0000 kml636 1009664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do, the Daycare bag basically just has a change of clothes for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009636 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 09:07:10 +0000 Smurfette 1009636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They gave us a tote bag but I would have bought my own to take. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009616 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 09:02:23 +0000 bunnylove08 1009616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we use a tote bag since we only bring a couple of things with her like lunch and snacks and bottles </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009577 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 08:51:44 +0000 lindseykaye 1009577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have two bags. The daycare bag is full of cloth diaper supplies for the day along with a few items i might need that are 'traditional' diaper bag (change of shirt for me, extra bib, food pouch, etc,) as I don't also carry her normal diaper bag to/from daycare so when i pick her up it is our primary bag.<br /> We have another bag that is more traditional in what we have (blanket, burp cloth, clothes, a diaper change pouch, sunscreen, blah blah). When we go out on the weekends that is the bag we use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009572 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 08:49:23 +0000 littlebittyhouse 1009572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a different bag for the same reason - I always end up using the diaper bag as a purse!</p> <p>We have an LL Bean canvas bag with the long handles for daycare. </p> <p>I bought wet bags to use in the beginning but just ended up using the plastic grocery store bags...one less thing to wash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009527 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 08:38:48 +0000 LuLu Mom 1009527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We keep everything at daycare (diapers, formula, bottles) but I take a diaper bag with extra clothes, blanket, ect. I could probably get away with a smaller one but it works for now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009513 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 08:34:33 +0000 regberadaisy 1009513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: We have a back up one that DH got as a dad gift at our shower. We keep that in the car for back up in case our main diaper bag runs out of diapers, wipes, snacks, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009496 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 08:24:22 +0000 blackbird 1009496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I take a lunch bag filled with her wubbanub, swaddle, extra outfit (in a plastic bag so the dirty ones come back quarantined) and clean bottles. I leave diapers+wipes+formula there. If i had to pack diapers+wipes+formula every day, I would have a larger tote type bag for daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009477 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 08:16:24 +0000 Ra 1009477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I drop off my diaper bag when my mom takes him and carry a purse. I just throw in a little cooler bag with pumped milk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009476 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 08:16:23 +0000 Rubies 1009476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. On Mondays, I pack up DD's bag with things she needs for the week (blanket, extra clothes, indoor shoes, etc.) and I leave that bag there until Friday when I bring all that stuff home. We have a separate bag for diapers/wipes for the week if we have to go out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009474 Mon, 12 Aug 2013 08:14:45 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1009474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare provides clear bags to be used. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009073 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 23:27:31 +0000 winniebee 1009073@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did - it was a Carter's messenger bag someone gifted me. But once he got older and wasn't going thru 3 outfits and once he stopped having so many bottles a day I just brought his lunch box and kept extra clothes and diapers there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009065 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 23:18:49 +0000 lomom 1009065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Carter's bag that goes back and forth. It was free when I bought my carseat at bru and the perfect size for a little cooler bag of bottles, a couple changes of clothes, and some diapers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009042 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 22:51:39 +0000 yoursilverlining 1009042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When LO took bottles we had a special daycare bag separate from the diaper bag that went back and forth each day to daycare with her bottles. We just used a canvas tote bag :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009028 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 22:36:57 +0000 Boheme 1009028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: That's what I was thinking of using! My library book bag seems to be a good size for what I'll be bringing to/from each day. Your post reminded me that I need to pick up a small wet bag or two to send back and forth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009026 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 22:34:27 +0000 mrskc 1009026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just take his bottles of milk everyday and leave supplies there. I would just get a cheap tote or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009023 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 22:30:43 +0000 autumnlove 1009023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I use a canvas tote bag and I leave it in the morning and bring it home at night! Cloth diapers are bulky! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-a-separate-diaper-bag-for-daycare#post-1009020 Sun, 11 Aug 2013 22:29:45 +0000 Boheme 1009020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use DS's diaper bag as my purse 99% of the time. Since he will only be going to our sitter a few hours a day until DH picks him up, I think we may need a separate bag since I'll be doing the drop-offs.</p> <p>Do you always use the same bag or do you have a separate one? </p>
