Packing for Disney World with a baby feels a little like preparing for a mini expedition—except instead of climbing Everest, you're navigating nap schedules, figuring out the Disney World stroller situation, and figuring out what rides can babies ride at Disney World without a meltdown (yours or theirs). 

But here’s the thing—it can be magical and manageable.

As a mom of three, I’ve done Disney World with a baby at every stage. And along the way, I’ve learned what actually works, what’s worth bringing, and what you can 100% leave at home.

From Disney baby care center hacks to Disney World stroller strategies that will make your life easier, I’m sharing all my best tips—because while your baby might not remember this trip, you will, and I want those memories to be the good kind.

In this episode, I’m covering:

  • The unexpected baby travel hack that made our hotel room actually functional.
  • Naps at Disney World with a baby—how to make them happen without missing all the fun.
  • The real deal on the Disney baby care center—what’s inside and how it can save the day.
  • The ultimate Disney World stroller game plan—because stroller parking chaos is real, and we are not about that life.
  • What rides can babies ride at Disney World? More than you think—but some are surprisingly great (and some, not so much).
