12 of the Best Diaper Bags for Moms In All Stages of Parenting

For a diaper bag that gets the job done (and looks good doing it), has tons of useful add-ons, and comes in at under $100, it's hard to beat this Skip Hop option. There are more than enough compartments, with nine pockets total, and a wipe-clean exterior that Moms will love. The compartments vary with zipper enclosure and magnetic, so little ones can access a few pockets if they need to.

One area this backpack really shines, though, are the add-ons. It comes with a paci holder, changing pad, stroller straps, insulated bottle bag, and packing cube. Each accessory matches the chic look of the diaper bag, so you'll be strolling in style.

"Love this diaper bag for my twins!! It’s a perfect size and not too big and bulky," one reviewer said. "I can fit enough stuff in here for two babies and then some!! I ordered the black and it’s so pretty."

We do wish that this backpack came in a few more color options. Being limited to just grey and black might not be fun for moms who'd prefer blue or pink.

Our favorite thing about this bold colored diaper bag is the way that the clamshell opening allows it to stand up on its own, making it easier to search for whatever we're looking for in a hurry. And find it we will, thanks to the two open side pockets that are perfect for stashing baby wipes and extra diapers, a front pouch that is the perfect size for tucking an extra swaddle blanket, and a rear zipper pouch where you can store those things you don't want to risk losing.

"The amount of stuff it holds is crazy, and the overall size when zipped almost feels like you shouldn't be able to hold as much as you do," one Amazon reviewer mentioned. "I love the zipper in the back that you can open the bottom of the backpack if you have stuff stacked. The side pocket for the wipes was a key feature I was looking for and the bottle holders are bigger than they appear in photos online."

The storage solutions continue on the exterior, with two open side pockets. You'll find a wide zipper pocket that's perfect for storing baby bottles on the front of the bag, and in the rear you'll find another smaller pouch where you can put your valuables or other items you want to keep close.

The waterproof design comes in multiple colorways including this bold red wine shade that we absolutely love.

For a diaper bag so cute you'll want to wear it for work, travel, and everything in between, go with this Petunia Pickle Bottom backpack. It has a cable stitch and vegan leather design that gives the exterior more texture and dimension than other options — two words you never thought you'd use to describe a diaper bag!

But personality isn't all this bag has — it checks all the practicality boxes, too. I use this backpack with my 6 month-old daughter and have found it to have just the right amount of space for all her necessities and then some. I can fit a pack of wipes, a few diapers, a change of clothes, her bottle warmer, diaper cream, and a small tub of formula in the main compartment, and it all stays organized thanks to the five pockets. In the magnetic front pocket I store toys, and the zippered front pocket includes a to-go toiletry kit. The two pockets on the side are perfect for bottles, and the front D-ring attaches our paci holder.

Additionally, this backpack has a wipeable changing pad and two D-rings on the back to attach to a stroller, as well as a trolley strap for airline travel.

Any time I just need to grab my daughter and run into a store or have a casual dinner at a restaurant, I grab this fanny pack. I love it so much that I've started using it just for myself (but shh...don't let my girl know).

This fanny pack was designed by Moms, so you can be sure it has enough room for baby essentials, as opposed to other trendy fanny packs. I can fit a travel pack of wipes, a couple of diapers, a small tube of diaper cream, my phone, and the included card holder in the main compartment. I love that there's three extra pockets in the main portion so I can keep my things separate from hers. I use the front and back compartments for car keys and a small toy.

Carrying around a whole diaper bag just for a quick run to Target isn't ideal. I love that this fanny pack frees up both of my hands to hold my daughter, and it's just a bonus that it's cute enough for me to wear around without her, too. Isn't that the ultimate seal of Mom-pproval?

Materials: Vegan leather | Dimension: 6.5" x 9" x 2" | Weight: 1.25 lbs | Changing Pad Included: No

Meet: the diaper bag that can do it all. The Béis diaper bag gets tons of hype, and it's totally worth it. It comes with all the necessities — plenty of exterior pockets, roomy interior storage, a changing pad — but also includes add-ons that Moms will love, like a teething ring, key leash, and paci pouch.

And while this backpack was meant as a diaper bag (and has all the extras that Moms love), you'll find more than a few people who don't even have kids who use this bag. "I purchased this bag primarily for travel, not intending to use it as a diaper bag, and I'm extremely satisfied with it," one review said. "I was pleasantly surprised by the additional pouches and accessories it came with, including a teething ring, which was a delightful touch."

We also love the versatility. You can wear it as a backpack, attach it to the stroller, or use the trolley strap during travel.

While the interior compartment has plenty of multi-functional pockets, we do wish more of the exterior pockets had more secure storage. It might be easy for little hands to reach in and access toys or pacis, but that means it's also easy for those things to fall out. And any Mom who's lost a lovey knows that there's no coming back from that. We also wish this backpack came with a few more color options than black, grey, and navy.

Materials: Vegan leather and nylon twill | Dimension: 12" x 15" x 7.75"" | Weight: Not listed | Changing Pad Included: Yes

A popular and on-trend option, this Freshly Picked backpack has a low profile but has more than enough room thanks to the expandable sides. It also comes with more than enough compartments, with seven interior pockets in the main compartment and five exterior pockets. With both a zippered and magnetic enclosure, everything in the main compartment is sure to stay safe and secure.

"I like how the material is very versatile and doesn't scream 'diaper bag,'" new mom Katie Chorney said. "Also, it can hold everything I need it to without appearing bulky or overloaded."

Another benefit to the vegan leather besides the versatility? Being easy-to-clean. Moms love being able to quickly wipe the interior and exterior after a spill (which happens often).

The padded straps are comfortable to carry, and the bag comes in tons of different color options. It has two D-rings to attach to a stroller, but it doesn't have a trolley strap, so it might not be the best for travel.

Materials: Vegan leather | Dimension: 13" x 15" x 7" | Weight: 2.94 lbs | Changing Pad Included: Yes

Want a diaper bag that dad will also be excited about? This bag from Dagne Dover checks all the boxes. Not only is this vegan option popular with both men and women, but it can accommodate everything anyone might need while out and about with a new baby. This bag comes with a washable zippered bag, two stroller clips, and an insulted neoprene water bottle holder. Oh, and great news for all pumping mamas: this bag is also big enough to fit most breast pumps. So, you won't need a second bag to bring your pump along with you when you leave the house.

"My favorite thing about this is that my notoriously bag-averse husband is just as excited about this diaper bag as I am. (In fact, he’s the one that picked it out!)" Lifestyle Director Sarah Zlotnick said. "The sleek gender-neutral design will make it easy for us to pass it back and forth."

Available in five colorways and three different sizes, this bag has something for everyone.

Materials: Premium neoprene | Dimension: 9.5" x 5.652" x 12.25" | Weight: 3 lbs | Changing Pad Included: Yes

A diaper bag that you can throw into the washing machine? Yes, please! This cute design from JuJuBe has it all—stunning colorways, rose gold metallic accents, plenty of pockets to help you keep track of everything, and additional add-on organizers that can purchased to go with your bag and help keep you organized.

The fabric itself feels high-end despite the fact that it has such low-maintenance care needs. As if that isn't enticing enough, the interior of the bag has had a silver ion-treatment, which makes it resistant to bacteria, mold, and mildew. Parents also love the many pockets this bag has. "I love all the compartments and the look of it," one Amazon reviewer said. "I bought it for my third baby, so I’ve had a few diaper bags before. This is by far my favorite."

That, combined with the fact that the bag comes with two different straps—a thin one for everyday use and a thicker padded option for when you're carrying more items—makes this a great choice for a no-fuss mama who is looking for plenty of variety in a diaper bag.

Materials: Polyester | Dimension: 5.91" x 11.81" x 13.78" | Weight: 2.51 lbs | Changing Pad Included: Yes

Want a bag that can help you carry around your emergency diaper supplies while also keeping your pumping schedule on track? This floral bag from Sarah Wells comes with two large insulated pockets that will help keep your freshly pumped milk safe while you're away from home.

"This was my personal item on a plane, carrying two lunchbox coolers of milk, extra pump parts, accessories, and my PISA," one Amazon reviewer said. "It was a breeze to pump in my seat with this bag, because my pump was all set up in one of the convenient side compartments and all my other items were inside the bag."

The bag is large enough that it can carry most popular breast pumps, including Spectra and Medela models, leaving plenty of room for all those new baby essentials like a change of clothes, diapers, and extra wipes.

The rich colors look gorgeous in person and even though it's roomy enough to fit all of your baby's needs, it doesn't feel that heavy when you're carrying it around.

Materials: Nylon | Dimension: 16" x 7" x 17" | Weight: 1.32 lbs | Changing Pad Included: No

If you're someone who likes a lot of bells and whistles, you'll love this diaper bag combo from Huhu. The extra large bag feels more like a tactical backpack, outfitted with extra pouches so you can keep everything your baby needs nice and organized.

The exterior comes in a neutral taupe or black, but both colorways come with a bright blue interior that offers up a nice pop of color every time you open your bag. And speaking of opening the bag, the magnetic closure on the top flap ensures that you'll never lose anything from your bag, even if you forget to click the clasp into place!

You'll be comfortable while you're wearing it thanks to the airflow channels in the ergonomic back panel, which will keep you from getting overheated while you walk. This bundle comes with a matching "Go Anywhere Changing Wallet," which is perfect for those short trips where you'll only need to bring a few things, including a changing pad.

Materials: PFAS-free polyester | Dimension: 18": x 11.5" x 5.5" | Weight: 2.1 lbs | Changing Pad Included: Yes

With nearly 25,000 reviews and a five star rating, it will be harder to explain what this bag doesn't have than what it does. The Amazon favorite comes with plenty of storage, including two main compartments, five insulated pockets, a dedicated space for wipes, and a pocket for your tablet or laptop (fits devices up to 15.6" in the tech pocket).

The reinforced cushion straps ensure you'll always be comfortable, no matter how much baby gear you're carrying around. Thanks to the gender-neutral design, mom's unlikely to be the only one carting this bag around.

"We purchased this backpack in March of 2021 and we have used it every single day since then, more than two years later," one happy customer wrote in their review, noting that they've run it through the wringer, including the washer and dryer.

With 19 different colorways and this super affordable price, we're sure you're going to be hitting "add to cart" before you finish reading this sentence.

Materials: Twill-weave polyester | Dimension: 15" x 12" x 6.5" | Weight: 2.7 lbs | Changing Pad Included: Yes

It's a purse, it's a crossbody bag, no, it's a diaper bag! This chameleon of a bag is many things at once, including a stylish way to keep yourself and your baby organized while you're away from home.

This chic bag unzips into two distinct sections: one for mom, and one for the baby. Each section comes with it's own little side pockets that are perfect for keeping the essentials in order.

The Poppy bag comes with two different crossbody straps, a thing plain black one to dress the diaper bag up and then a thicker patterned version to give the bag a more funky look. The firm exterior adds to the fashionable look of the bag, which can easily transition from a night out on the town to a stroll through the park.

We love this bag because it's perfect for moms who don't have (or want) to bring a whole lot of stuff along with them when they hit the road!
