Bambini Baby Awards 2026: Meet Some of Our Gold Winners

The Bambini Baby Awards 2026 results are here, celebrating products for babies, children and parents. From baby skincare to feeding essentials, this year’s winners cover many of the things families reach for every day.

Every product featured on our winners list has been tried and tested by parents, carers and their little helpers. Here, we’re taking a closer look at a selection of Gold winners and the features they offer. You can explore every category on our 2026 winners page.

Double Gold for the Najell SleepCarrier

Najell’s SleepCarrier Vol.5 received Gold for both Best Baby Sleep Product and Best Pram Accessory / Product.

The Najell SleepCarrier Vol.5 combines a firm mattress, sturdy sides and carrying handles in a portable design. Air-mesh panels allow ventilation, while the updated version includes a new strap-locking system. It also opens out into a play mat for tummy time and play, adding another use beyond its role as a carrycot.

Najell’s success extended to pregnancy, too. Its Pregnancy Pillow won Gold for Best Product for Pregnancy and Best Sleep Therapy Product. The pillow’s adjustable shape and firmness allow users to adapt it to their preferred resting position. We’ll give it a closer look in our upcoming pregnancy and new-mum blog.

Baby skincare worth getting to know

Drought Secret’s Calming Butter Balm collected Gold for Best Baby Moisturiser and Best Baby Skincare Product, alongside its Best Balm win. Formulated for dry and sensitive skin, it includes oat and blackseed among its botanical ingredients. The rich, buttery texture makes it one to explore for families who prefer a balm for moisturising dry areas.

Gold in the Baby Skincare category went to Kokoso Baby Coconut Oil. This organic oil melts with the warmth of your hands and can be used on skin, scalp and hair. It’s also suitable for baby massage, giving one small pot several roles in the daily routine.

For those who prefer a lotion, Elm Lab Skincare Baby Lotion won Best Baby Lotion. Its fragrance-free formula combines New Zealand A2 colostrum with shea butter, aloe vera, calendula and vitamin E. It has a creamy texture designed to leave skin moisturised without a sticky finish.

The Kokoso Baby-Soft Balm Stick took Gold for Best Baby Balm. Its twist-up format makes it easy to apply directly to smaller areas, such as dry cheeks and lips. Coconut oil, olive oil, beeswax and shea butter feature in the formula, with unfragranced and lavender versions available.

From bath time to nappy changes

Weleda Baby Calendula Good Night Bath won Best Baby Bath / Shower Product. Its oil-to-milk formula contains plant oils and calendula extract, with a lavender and neroli scent. Developed with midwives and pharmacists, it’s designed to cleanse gently as part of an evening bath routine.

Best Baby Body Wash went to Pharmaceris Emotopic 3 in 1 Wash Gel 200ml. Designed for face, body and hair, it combines several washing steps in one bottle, with a focus on dry and sensitive skin.

Kokoso Gentle Hair & Body Wash earned Gold for Best Baby Shampoo / Conditioner. Organic coconut oil and aloe vera feature in its creamy formula, which can be used for washing both hair and body.

At changing time, Colief Nappy Care Spray offers a different format from a traditional cream. The Best Nappy Cream Gold winner is sprayed onto the cleaned nappy area without needing to be rubbed in.

Purever Premium Bamboo Baby Wipes won Best Baby Wipes. The wipe material is made from 100% bamboo fibre, and the cleansing solution contains no added fragrance or alcohol. Single-sheet dispensing is a welcome detail when you’re trying to manage a nappy change with one hand.

Feeding, weaning and first tastes

The b.box for kids UK 2+1 suction plate won both Best Baby Dinnerwear and Best Weaning Product. The plate’s removable divider and suction base let families adapt it over time: serve foods separately, remove the divider for more space, or take off the suction component to use it as a standard plate.

The brand also won Best Lunchbox with The big bento lunchbox. Its flexible whole-fruit section, sandwich compartment and separate food spaces give parents plenty of room to vary what they pack.

For preparing meals, the PuréePro® V2 Baby Food Maker took Gold for Best Feeding Device. It steams and blends ingredients into different textures, with additional bottle-warming, steam-sterilising and self-cleaning functions.

The Ardo Alyssa Hands-Free Double Electric Breast Pump won Best Breast Pump. It offers single or double expressing, a rechargeable battery and optional app control. Its Memory Plus feature saves personalised settings for future sessions.

Finally, Best Teething Product went to the Haakaa UK Freeze-n-Feed Mini Combo. The set pairs a silicone feeder with a tray for making frozen portions that fit inside its pouch. An easy-grip handle and parts that separate for cleaning complete the design.
