2. Car Seat Brochure
Did you know that four out of five car seats are used incorrectly? This visual brochure outlines critical information when it comes to child passenger safety, including how to properly use carseats for children of various ages and sizes.
The Minnesota Child Passenger Safety Law states that when transporting a child who is under age 8 or shorter than 4 feet 9 inches, use a child restraint that is appropriate for the child's height and weight, so it's a good idea to review the information in this guide.

3. Immunization Schedule
Children are vaccinated to prevent disease that may cause permanent damage. Vaccines are given on a carefully planned schedule to optimize a child’s well being. These vaccines have withstood the test of research and time, and are much safer than contracting the diseases that they prevent. This chart outlines what immunizations/labs are recommended at various ages of development.
4. Voyage Healthcare Onesie and Bib
Included in your Baby Bag is an embroidered Voyage Healthcare newborn onesie and matching bib. And, if you upload a photo of your baby in their Voyage Healthcare spirit wear to Facebook or Instagram and use hashtag #VoyageBabies, you'll be entered to win a $300 Amazon gift card! A winner will be randomly selected quarterly and can only win one time.
