How to Enjoy Oscar Night with a Baby: Tips for New Parents

Oscar night is one of the most glamorous evenings of the year, filled with dazzling stars, heartfelt speeches, and unforgettable moments. But if you’re a new parent, it can feel like a distant dream to sit back and enjoy the show. Between diaper changes and feedings, how can you possibly carve out time for Hollywood’s biggest night?

The good news is: you can! With a little planning and the right tools—like the Jili All-In-One Baby Bottle—you can enjoy the Oscars without sacrificing your baby’s needs. Here are practical tips to make Oscar night both baby-friendly and enjoyable for you as a parent.

1. Set Up a Baby-Friendly Viewing Area

Create a cozy space where you can watch the Oscars while keeping your baby comfortable. Lay down a soft play mat, bring along their favorite toys, and keep essentials like diapers, wipes, and burp cloths within arm’s reach. If your baby is in the newborn phase, set up a bassinet or bouncer near the TV so they can nap peacefully while you enjoy the show.

2. Time Feeding Breaks Strategically

The Oscars—with their red-carpet coverage, live performances, and award announcements—can run long. Plan your baby’s feeding times around key moments you don’t want to miss. This is where the Jili All-In-One Baby Bottle shines. Its insulated design keeps water warm for up to 8 hours, making it ideal for bottle feeding on the go or during an at-home event like Oscar night. You won’t need to leave the room to heat water, ensuring you don’t miss a second of your favorite categories.

3. Prepare Quick Snacks for Yourself

As a new parent, it’s easy to focus solely on your baby’s needs and forget about your own. Prepare easy-to-grab snacks ahead of time so you can fuel up while watching the show. Think finger foods like veggie sticks, popcorn, or a charcuterie board—perfect for grazing during commercial breaks.

4. Dress for Comfort

While the stars are walking the red carpet in couture, you can celebrate in your coziest pajamas or loungewear. For a festive touch, consider wearing an Oscar-themed outfit or accessorizing with gold or sparkly accents. Comfort is key when you’re managing both baby duties and award show excitement.

5. Make It a Family Affair

Even if your baby is too young to understand what’s happening, you can still create fun memories. Snap a few photos of your Oscar night setup, complete with your baby in a cute onesie. If you have older kids, involve them by creating Oscar-themed bingo cards or letting them vote on their favorite outfits from the red carpet.

6. Keep a Flexible Schedule

Remember, babies are unpredictable. If your little one needs extra attention during a pivotal Oscar moment, don’t stress. Record the show or follow along on social media for real-time updates. Your baby’s needs come first, and the beauty of modern technology is that you can always rewatch later.

7. Leverage the Convenience of the Jili Bottle

One of the biggest challenges of watching a long event like the Oscars with a baby is managing feeding times. That’s where the Jili All-In-One Baby Bottle comes in. Designed for busy parents, this stainless steel baby bottle is insulated to keep water warm for up to 8 hours, ensuring your baby’s formula is ready whenever they need it. It’s the ultimate travel baby bottle, but it’s just as handy for a relaxed night at home. With its built-in formula container, you can say goodbye to juggling multiple items and enjoy seamless feedings.

8. Enjoy the Moment

Finally, don’t forget to soak in the magic of the evening. Watching the Oscars with a baby may not look the same as it did before parenthood, but it can be just as special. Celebrate the small wins, like catching your favorite actor’s acceptance speech or sharing a laugh with your partner during a funny moment.
