The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale has officially kicked off for cardholders, and while I already shared my favorite fall fashion picks, today’s spotlight is on the little ones. From strollers and car seats to sweet clothing finds and even toys, the sale is packed with deals that make parenting a little easier (and a little cuter). If you’ve been waiting to invest in baby gear or upgrade essentials for your kids, this is the perfect time.
Why Shop the Anniversary Sale for Baby and Kids?
Baby gear isn’t cheap, and the best brands rarely go on sale. That’s why the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is such a win—you can snag those splurge-worthy items at a serious discount. Think strollers that glide effortlessly, car seats that make travel safer and smoother, and everyday gear that will actually last through the chaos of toddlerhood.
So, whether you’re a new parent stocking up, shopping for a shower gift, or just upgrading for the next stage, here are my top picks.
#1 Baby Gear Must-Haves
✨ Thule City Stroller
If you’re looking for a stroller that does it all, this is it. We paired ours with the bassinet attachment during the newborn days, and it was a total game-changer. The bassinet was roomy, cozy, and perfect for naps on the go, while the stroller itself is sturdy enough for road trips and daily outings.
Another plus? You can add on car seat adapters (the Maxi-Cosi infant seat is also marked down in the sale!) and make it a seamless travel system. It’s one of those pieces that grows with your baby and is worth every penny—especially when you can grab it at this price.
✨ Nuna Car Seat and Mixx Stroller
The Nuna Mixx is another stroller that gets a ton of love from parents, and for good reason. It’s beautifully designed, lightweight, and incredibly easy to fold and maneuver. Pair it with the Nuna car seat, and you’ve got a travel combo that will carry you from the newborn stage to those toddler neighborhood walks.
We’ve used this stroller for everything from evening strolls to errands, and it’s never let us down. Bonus: the Anniversary Sale version comes in a fresh new color, so you can snag something a little different than the standard options.
✨ Mini Stroller for Kids
This one is just for fun but so worth mentioning. My daughter is obsessed with her doll stroller—it’s practically a mini version of the one we use! The quality is surprisingly sturdy (it actually handles bumps and cracks in the sidewalk just fine) and it keeps little hands busy while we’re out on walks. If you’ve got a toddler who likes to mimic you, this is a sweet little splurge.
Beyond Gear: Clothing, Shoes, and More
Of course, the Anniversary Sale isn’t just about gear. The kids’ section is full of deals on clothing, shoes, and accessories that actually hold up to playtime. From tiny sneakers that go with everything to cozy jackets for back-to-school, it’s worth browsing through.
I love using this sale to pick up staple pieces—things my kids will wear on repeat, not just once. Quality basics at a discount always feel like a parenting win.
Final Thoughts
The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is the perfect chance to snag big-ticket baby gear and everyday kid essentials without the usual sticker shock. Whether you’re investing in a stroller that will last you through multiple stages, stocking up on newborn must-haves, or just grabbing a doll stroller for fun, there’s something in this sale for every parent.
If you’ve had your eye on gear like the Thule City Stroller or the Nuna Mixx system, this is your sign—now’s the time to get it. Because if there’s one thing all parents know, it’s that the right gear makes life smoother, and any deal that helps us save along the way is worth celebrating.
