Hi, I'm Liv! I'm an Ohio girl living in a California world with my two sons, two dogs and husband. I make videos on motherhood, fashion, beauty, fitness, and overall health and wellness. Some of my favorite videos to make (that you'll see a lot!) are baby essentials, haul videos, lookbooks, try on videos, and style/beauty favorites. I LOVE to shop, socialize, hang out at the beach, and spread love & happiness. I pride myself on being an optimistic person and believe life is too short to be anything other than your happiest self.

[@shelleyknightley2674]

U need to give yourself a pat on the back for the amount of content you’ve been uploading while juggling mum life. U r slaying mumma 💓

[@oliviazapo]

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate that and am so thankful you noticed! 😊❤️

[@beetysbooks4804]

So truuuuue

[@carlalorean7926]

6 months pregnant with my first baby and watching this I find super helpful! Thank you!!

[@aliciawigren3170]

Am I pregnant with our 3rd kid and already have our favorite essentials? Yes... am I still going to watch all of this and LOVE it? YES 🙌🏻

[@olgaakturk2937]

Same here! Due in August with 3rd and still watching 👍

[@MyDecadentLife]

Haha me too!

[@sarahtallent8209]

I'd love a pp essentials video!!

[@opalghost6345]

FB marketplace is your friend, you can buy those big price items for a fraction of the cost if someone is selling it in your area

[@bailyeogden]

I second this! Just got a brand new DockATot for $90 off the marketplace

[@jessr15929]

Im having my 3rd baby and thats what im doing! Ive found several things that are like new for half the price!

[@maddihuskergirl]

Totally!! Just got a halo bassinet for $120. In perfect condition!

[@kenos8237]

Lots of free stuff too

[@yt-xs8wr]

I’m also into fb marketplace Looking for new products resellers, and found a bunch with good discounts

[@cassidygraham4373]

Yes please to the postpartum video. I’m 7 1/2 months pregnant and am starting to make a list of what I might need 💕

[@catherinearredondo2092]

There's so much more I ended up needing than I thought I would. I'd be interested to hear what she says about what's needed postpartum. I grossly underestimated what I would need.

[@geeksloveme]

The high waisted pants with feet are great for anyone who cloth diapers. Pants were sometimes weird for my baby's little fluff butt. H&M has awesome footy pants!

[@jackiehernandez6204]

So happy you made this video! I’m pregnant with my 2nd and I apparently forgot everything I used with my 1st 🤣

[@misso295]

I know this has to happen, I’m pregnant with my first and all the gifts we’ve gotten so far are bizarre! I’m so so grateful but not what’s useful for a newborn

[@mollieking-carlson3662]

Do I have a newborn? No, my baby is now 13 months old. Am I still watching because Olivia is everything? Yes!

[@candacet3856]

Agreed, my baby turns 13 months tomorrow! I've been binging her old videos too because I adore her!

[@joyfulinhope1210]

I really love your ‘essentials’ disclaimer. It seems like a lot of first time moms especially think they need to spend thousands of dollars on gear, even if they can’t afford to.

[@zipporahngigi4532]

exactly. I'm watching for entertainment coz it's a lot and most unnecessary.

[@candacet3856]

I appreciate your disclaimers in the beginning even though I think it's sucks you had to do it. Some people troll to judge so I get it. I also have the Munchkin Step pail & I love the ring refills. You don't need a knife or scissors to cut because there's a blade in the inside of the pail you slide the bag across to cut it at the top so you don't waist the bag. I LOVE THIS FUNCTION!

[@kristiklein4510]

I loved the snuggle me. Definitely my baby’s favorite

[@15cindaboo]

Love this video, adding a few more things to my list before baby boy comes in a couple of weeks🥰 thank you!

[@rebeccaellison9999]

I’ve been obsessed with these videos to try and make sure I have everything I need for our baby boy! I’m 34 weeks 💙

[@brianna6923]

Same here 20 wks ❤🎀

[@jakobandashleighguidry1593]

How’s it going??

[@lenorecasey9962]

38 weeks watching this making sure I haven’t forgotten anything! Love your videos💕

[@sabrinaalmodovar680]

I love how consistent you are!! Thank you for all these products I’m on baby number 2 and expecting a baby boy this time so this was really helpful!!! God bless your family love 💛🦋

[@CarolynConnelly]

Pregnant with my second and gearing up (again)! Your essentials are spot on for making life easier! My toddler also messes with our hatch sound machine! My baby had a love/hate with swaddles. Always ended up with an arm out but slept better swaddled.

[@bre7718]

Oo yes! I've been thinking about the snuggle me for my 3rd!

[@brittanyking6766]

Yes please do a postpartum essentials video! I’m 3.5 weeks out from my due date and love these essential videos of yours 😍

[@KatieSullivan1]

This was so great! Thank you for making awesome content! I’m 35 weeks with my first baby girl and it made me feel very reassured that I’ve got most of these items. Whew! 😅 Keep up the amazing work!! ♥️ All of us mamas need it!

[@nataliey07]

Thank you! This is the most helpful essential video I’ve seen yet.

[@fancycupcake03]

Expecting our first baby boy in February and this was SO helpful. Thank you!

[@Fridate]

Thanks so much Olivia. I'm 19 weeks and I feel like I am so behind on doing my registry and just any research in general. This really helped me out.

[@vediay4345]

I love your videos - they are so helpful! Thank you for sharing all of this great information. So refreshing.

[@taylordockins5001]

Thank you so much for posting this!! Adjusting my registry 😍

[@alexandriaherndon6228]

Gosh this is the ONLY video I’ve seen of this type where I loved everything!!!!

[@susyg7061]

I love this so much. Thank you for sharing. I’m pregnant w my 3rd BUT the last time I was pregnant was 8 years ago... the market has changed so much and has such amazing info and products for mom and baby! 💗 this was really helpful.

[@jessicak1239]

My baby girl absolutely loves the swaddle up!! And we also use the swaddle me which she loves too. Such a lifesaver

[@ambersmith739]

Ugh yesss copper pearl has the most amazing swaddles

[@midwestbadger2503]

I am so jealous of your nursing skin. I nursed and my jawline just went nuts. I love your videos, these are so helpful. Thank you!

[@user-fc4dk5vq3j]

Love this video! These are my favorite types of videos to watch 🥰 ftm due in October this is so helpful

[@7BearSarah]

My first baby is due in April and this is so helpful! I find baby products to be so overwhelming and I appreciate the real opinions. Obviously every baby is different but I've found so much conflicting info. I love that you're super honest about what is actually worth the money.

[@alairvega7684]

I’m 36 weeks so I’m literally just nesting like crazy!! So excited for this to help me get an idea of the last minute amazon prime items we should purchase 😍

[@olgaakturk2937]

36 weeks here too!

[@jm64XD]

Thank you for this! Its my first and I'm 25 weeks pregnant and just added a bunch of stuff that you recommend to my registry! I didn't know where to start and you helped me!

[@SeasonswithSummer]

So looking forward to that postpartum care video! I truly need it! Soon to be new mama here!

[@lotte90]

I gave birth last Saturday! 🥰🥰 Thank you for this video Liv, your updates are such highlights in my week!

[@yaquelinemartinez9954]

Yes please! Do a video for postpartum, I’m having my second baby and this would be helpful cause I know I won’t think of some stuff. Thank you! 🙏🏼😁

[@ADWebTV]

The K'tan and Ergobaby are the best. I bought the K'tan when we traveled to France, I wanted something soft that was easy for me to feel comfortable with on and also my son and I could both sleep. It was wonderful.. I had my son as a lap baby and I felt so secure with him in it. Plus it's easier to use vs a stroller with luggage at the airport. The Ergobaby worked perfectly to ride their train and walk through Paris.

[@denaydetherage2353]

I’m pregnant with my first so this was SUPER helpful so thank you so much!

[@tiffanyvaughan]

Also pregnant with baby #3 and still found this very helpful! It’s crazy how different one baby is from the next; I’m pretty sure everything my first loved, my second hated 😂 Neither would take pacifiers, but fingers crossed this baby will! Loved all your recommendations!

[@karinakissell9565]

Really like the options! Neither of mine liked being swaddled, one was SO fussy with pacifiers-the other took anything. So different, but love seeing the options available.

[@Yew_tuber]

I swear by the snuggle me my daughter absolutely loved it so much! It’s been 3 years since I’ve had another baby so I eventually got rid of everything baby related except for this! Now that I’m expecting again I’m so glad I chose to save this one item!

[@tayloragrace]

Just opened the video and just have to say you look amazing!

[@savannahmills6520]

Great video! My baby will be 2 weeks tomorrow and we are still figuring out what she likes best but I for sure like the Velcro swaddles and sister loves the swing too!!

[@rachelnicolefrey1325]

Ooh lala your hair and makeup are on point in this video!! 💕😍

[@adriannaagnew2483]

I'm 25 weeks I'm really glad u posted this!! Thank u

[@ChiquisAngel90]

Me too!💗

[@jesswhite336]

Absolutely love our ergo Omni 360! Highly recommend!

[@21FAITH21]

Just found your channel - love these lists!!

[@heatherbee9181]

Can’t wait for your updated pp care must haves!!!

[@alizastaygolden]

Omg with my first baby wrapping to wear was a life saver! I’m glad it’s still a thing now for my 2nd lol thanks for the info!

[@erikamoulton]

We used the Dock-a-Tot as a travel changing pad when we went on road trips and it was great! It's so useful!! xo

[@briannahale1179]

This is AMAZING! Thank you so much!

[@cesiahernandezalegria2859]

absolutely benefited from this! Thank you Thank you!

[@zoeloumarcelle]

Would def love the postpartum essentials ! ❤️❤️❤️

[@mamastern]

“Just hangin out with my friends” 😄👏🏼

[@Bellz89]

Really helpful! Thanks for the tips 🙌🏽😊

[@Kaybesaidso]

Subscribed because of your honesty

[@iambevinleigh]

Going on baby number three but I feel so out of the loop with everything hahaha! So THANK YOU for this thorough video, it helps so much!

[@tinamench4255]

Thank you so much for sharing on your experience and all the items that are out there such a big help!. # 8 months pregnant 😊

[@Sarahs.HappyLife]

Yay! Thanks for this video! I am in the process of adopting a newborn! So I need all the help I can get ! 😊🎉😂

[@armfrank]

This was AMAZING! Thank you!

[@brittanyp8100]

I am so thankful I found your channel! First time mama due with our son in September and it can feel so overwhelming not knowing what I actually NEED. Thank you so much for your informative videos! They really have helped me loads and feel much more prepared. ❤️

[@oliviazapo]

That makes me so happy!! Thank you so much! ❤️ congratulations to you!!

[@samanthaflores5873]

LOVE LOVEEEEEE LOVEEEEEEEE YOUR VIDEOS 👏🏼

[@lakliams]

The cover for the snuggle me actually fits the deluxe dock a tot, i used that cover so i didn't have to remove the one on the dock a tot And it actually made the dock a tot much more comfortable for my baby with the snuggle me cover😊

[@baileycarter1335]

I can relate SO much when you describe the differences between your kiddos. My 2 1/2yo son was the easiest newborn! He was cool with whatever and was so easy going. My daughter is 3 weeks old, and she has already shown me how she is a little more high maintenance. She’s very particular in ALL things and boy will she tell me. I’m so thankful she was my second and not my first, or I would’ve been a nervous wreck thinking I didn’t know what I was doing 🤣

[@oliviazapo]

Oh my goodness, we said the same thing!! We’re so glad we’ve been through it once before so we know everything is a phase 😂 🤞🏼

[@angelabedoya6189]

Sweet! Thanks for sharing! Also thanks for mentioning the products you have a partnership with.

[@paigestites7999]

Due in three weeks! I’m watching all your videos!!🤰🏽🤍

[@hannahfancy1701]

Am loving your videos Olivia! My daughter is a few months younger than your oldest and my son is currently two months old. I thought I had it all figured out after my colicky baby #1, but surprise! My son is completely different!! It's crazy how they can be so different! My must have baby items are quite similar to yours, except I HAVE to have my Tula Free-To-Grow (I recommend it to everyone!) and the ergococoon.

[@Mommy-at-uae]

Thx Olivia for the videos! There r so useful, am pregnant too!

[@beetysbooks4804]

Has anyone else felt the need to see more babies from this family? Lol when she said she’s keeping the Bobby for baby number three I was excited 😂😂

[@beetysbooks4804]

Tashura Smith lol I don’t buy these things either I just love her babies😂🤍

[@korriannamitchell8247]

This is such good information! I followed you with Christian and my first baby, and love following you now with My second due in September !! Thank you! ☺️

[@eveliaestudillo7681]

Same!!! Im due in September as well 💕

[@saram2557]

Second time mom! This is super helpful💗 thank you.

[@brittneylacorte3758]

For swaddles, I recommend the swaddleme ones that have velcro. Or ones with zippers. Those are the only ones that my son likes 😊 it really helps him sleep so much.

[@sadiemary7698]

How is it with the nightly diaper changes? Won’t the velcro sound wake the baby? Asking cause I’m giving birth in a couple months to my first lol.

[@brittneylacorte3758]

We used to take the entire swaddle off when we changed him in the night. If you don’t want to then you can get the Ollie swaddle. For us he always woke up for the midnight changes and feedings. Which we didn’t care because he’d fall back to sleep 😴

[@sarahleahy663]

I love the hatch baby sound machine. It is so nice for late-night feeds. No need to turn on the big light. Also, I like that I can change the colour to red. Apparently red doesn't mess with melatonin levels

[@meghanr9596]

I have my registry up as I watch this so I don’t miss a thing! we’re expecting our first daughter in January (And have been watching you since before I was pregnant!) I can’t wait for your postpartum video.

[@rublejessica89]

Have you had your baby yet? I just had my son early at 37weeks on the 4th

[@JessicaSoza749]

I have 3 kids. My 3rd is 1 month old, but this was my first time buying a boppy. I had never used one before but everyone seemed to love it so I bought one but I rarely ever use it. I feel like I'm much more comfortable nursing without it, maybe because I was used to not using it with my other kids.

[@bailyeogden]

You can also use the boppy for helping baby learn to sit up! They’re awesome at supporting the baby! Of course don’t leave them unattended, but if you’re tired of holding baby up and want them to build that muscle, it’s great for that

[@zoefang4563]

LOVE YOU OLIIVAAA

[@racheleva8089]

Yes to the postpartum video!

[@salafiumm]

We got the evenflo xpand gold, it can be used as both a double or single as needed ; when needed. We love it. The gold version is more expensive but the evenflo Xpand will do the same without all the extras. More only do we love that it can be both a double or single, we love that it we don't need any adapters or parts to carry around just to get it converted.

[@sarahgonzales9058]

My first baby was the same! She hated swings and loved bouncers! She also used the snuggle me until she grew out of it.

[@thecrazygoodmomlife]

I’m due next year with my first ☺️so I’m willing to take all tips from experienced mamas 😀 I’m super excited with a touch of nervousness 😂

[@danagu3554]

Same!! 😍😍

[@prettyosito]

A postpartum essentials video? Yes please!! 🙏

[@jaclyncorbin3312]

Yes please do a postpartum essentials video! I’m due in September and don’t even know where to start haha!

[@jenniedale]

Perfect timing since today is my due date 🤗 except this little boy wants to come late lol

[@mrshedinism]

The only channel I watch, I look forward to your videos!! I'm getting ready for baby #2... I'm in a potential 2 under 2 situation 😂😂

[@rajannavs1734]

L

[@aniakarishma2313]

Love you Olivia, I can hear this video 😆

[@briellenunez1307]

Yes please make a postpartum video !! I’m due August 4th and will definitely benefit from that video ! I love your videos !! Your an amazing mom💕🤰🏼

[@dulcebarrios6712]

We have the same due date. Im nervous lol

[@adrianarubio5253]

I second this! Due August 4th with my first baby boy and could definitely use some more experienced mama postpartum advice! I have padscicles in the freezer, tucks wipes and Depends Signature adult diapers (recommended by Olivia) and overnight thick pads in all the bathrooms in the house but still feel that I can use these last 3 weeks to prepare!

[@InATimelyFashion]

I’m also due August 4th. Yay us, we’re almost there 😊

[@ShannaCarlson525]

Just found your channel and I'm only just entertaining the thought of kids. Super helpful, though. I didn't even think of half the situations you talked about and now I have an Amazon and Target list and I'm not even pregnant lol

[@ashleyturco2350]

A necessity for our daughter was/is zipadee zips!! She likes to be swaddled with her hands near her face but once she hit 8 weeks and we had to stop swaddling I PANICKED!! Thought we would never sleep again!! Zipadees were amazing, she transitioned so easily and still wears them to sleep now at 14 months. She feels secure, she’s warm when she sleeps and she’s SAFE! Obviously safety is the most important!! Whenever we have our next baby, I’m definitely going to try that Baby Bjorn bouncer! We loved the Baby Bjorn mini carrier as well!

[@allisonjames786]

Olivia - I know this video is 2 years old.. I'm pregnant with baby number 2 and your videos really helped me through my first pregnancy! I wanted to point out, which you've probably already figured this out by now but the Hatch Baby sound machine, there is a toddler lock on the app! I hope you've already found it.. our 2 year old used to mess with it all the time!! Thank you so much for your videos, you've really helped me prepare for my second little one! :)

[@samramirez4556]

This was super helpful for me I'm due with my frist October 25th and I love the boho style to

[@emmakeepers7631]

I'm due with my first October 28!! We're getting closer!

[@caytlynnblakley3193]

I love these videos i am expecting my first and your helping so much with information i need on what to get and what helps the most one thing i don’t get is the car seat cover i’ve seen where babies have heat strokes bc of them and that they just ain’t to safe for a baby to have over it while it’s hot outside

[@rachaelerin1]

My son really relied on swaddles but we NEVER used swaddle blankets! The Halo swaddles and the Ollie swaddles were our lifesavers. Anything with Velcro was a winner.

[@squidney75]

I LOVE my baby Bjorn bouncer! I got it secondhand, though, so a much better price point!

[@judysaeteurn1838]

My fourth baby really hated his swing. Used it once and it just sat there wasting space, so I eventually just donated it. The boppy nursing pillow is life after you’ve had a c section.

[@andream8862]

I wish I had gotten that one. I got the breast friend nursing pillow and it was hard and not at all comfortable for me or baby specially because of the c section

[@yudenyfernandez]

Hey girl you are rocking good job busy mama!!!

[@oliviazapo]

Thank you so so much!!

[@richardhatle8041]

LOVE IT!! thanks Liv :) Do you have any good recommendations on high chairs?

[@rebekahwoolf]

Have you ever tried a Happy Baby Carrier? They are really stylish and linen so not too hot. They even make a toddler size.

[@ancanedelcu4508]

Lovely!!!
