About The Crib Book

The Crib Book is one calm place for the stretch before a baby arrives: checklists sorted by where you are, gear guides that compare instead of gush, and a name finder that starts from your family's story instead of a list of ten thousand.

It's made by Anchor 163, a small independent studio. Nobody pays to be on our lists. Some links earn us a commission when you buy; that keeps the site running and never changes which product we name — see how we choose.

Everything here is written to be read once and acted on, by someone who is tired. If a page makes you buy less, it's working.
