Hi, I’m Dustin
Dustin de Koekkoek, Founder and Editor, New Parent Advice · LinkedIn
I’m a dad of two young kids, and I started New Parent Advice to help parents find baby and kid gear that’s actually good, and safe, without wading through sponsored hype.
A lot of “best of” lists online are full of marketplace products with no real brand behind them, and few mention recalls or safety standards. So every guide on this site is built around what matters to parents: whether a product meets US safety standards, whether it’s been recalled, and what the manufacturer says about age and weight limits.
I live in San Diego and work in digital marketing, which is a big part of why I care about doing this the right way: real sources, honest picks, and clear disclosure.
How we choose products
Every guide is checked against manufacturer pages, federal safety standards and CPSC and NHTSA recall records. Products we can’t verify are moved to a clearly labeled section with the reason we removed them. Read the full details in how we research.
Who owns this site
New Parent Advice is owned and operated by Mosaic Digital LLC, Dustin’s digital media company.
How we make money
As an Amazon Associate, New Parent Advice earns from qualifying purchases. Commissions never affect which products we recommend or remove.
