I ordered this for a friend of mine who recently had a baby and I wanted to make a basket of things I thought would be useful.

I had one of these for when my son was a baby and still use it to this day. It's very useful for those who like to go on regular walks with their little one in a stroller. (Especially if it's near wooded areas)

It defiantly helps protect against bites of any kind. The elastic edge makes it fit pretty much anything, Ive used it on a 3 wheel jogger stroller and it always stayed in place.

Overall I think this is a great gift for a first time mom, it's something you won't realize you need until you do. I purchased this at a discount from Amazon and my friend was very happy to receive it.
