Life as a new mom means never knowing if you’ll sleep, shower, or peel off your jammies.

Prepare yourself for baby’s more predictable eat-sleep-poop-play schedule at Urba Baby, Lincoln Park’s just-opened shop for infants, toddlers, and parents.

You won’t find cribs, strollers, car seats, or any other biggies, which is refreshing, because you can simply focus on little things that make life easier. Think carriers (Baby K’tan, Ergobaby), books, toys, feeding helpers (Innobaby bottles, Baby Chef cooking systems), and even jewelry that doubles as a teether. Clothing from Kicky Pants, PaigeLauren Baby, and more complement the store’s own line of cotton onesies and toddler and adult tees.

Along with being a great place to pick up a shower gift, Urba Baby is a hub for classes ranging from infant massage to baby sign language.

Surely you can pencil something in.

Urba Baby, 1117 West Armitage Avenue, between Seminary and Clifton Avenues (773-472-2229 or urbababy.com).
