1. Storkcraft Alpine Changing Table
Available in white and gray, the Alpine Changing Table isn’t just a changing table—it’s a full-on diaper-changing system. Below the changing area (which includes a water-resistant vinyl changing pad complete with a safety strap) are two open shelves to store the essentials. Here you can keep the storage open-concept by placing necessary items like towels, bibs, wipes, creams and more on the shelves; or you can line each of the shelves with bins and baskets for a more refined look.

3. Cubberly Harriet Bee Toy Storage Kids Bookcase
As any veteran parent knows, welcoming an infant means welcoming a whole lot more stuff into your space. That’s a whole lot of books and a whole lot of toys, too. Naturally, these items need someplace to go, so they don’t turn into rug or closet clutter. Enter: Cubberly Harriet Bee Toy Storage Kids Bookcase by Wayfair. This adorable little bookcase is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Not only is it convenient for storing books, toys or blankies in its spacious cubby holes, but it also transitions into an excellent piece for a toddler or big kid. Once your babe has outgrown using the bookcase for things like stuffed animal storage, you can easily convert its top shelf into a craft case of sorts that’s ideal for storing everything from colored pencils and crayons to coloring books and more.
