From drool to messy first meals, a bib is a parent's best friend. I can't count how many loads of laundry and outfits I've saved while raising my three children…all thanks to bibs. Which is the best bib? It all comes down to what you want the bib to do and your baby's preferences.
Read on to learn about the best baby bibs, which one is best for what purpose, and how to choose what you need.
9 Best Baby Bibs Parents Love
Which bibs are the best for starting solids? How about all the drool when your baby is teething? We’ve got you covered with a rundown of top bibs for every need.
Best Silicone Bibs
Silicone is the perfect material for a waterproof bib. Silicone bibs catch rogue food (and liquids) as your baby eats with a pocket at the bottom. Professional mess-neutralizers, they make ideal toddler bibs.
1. Mushie - Silicone Bib - $12.99
Soft, and flexible, this bib eliminates the mess of meals. Mushie uses food-grade silicone free of BPA, BPS, PVC, and phthalates.
Choose from a plethora of solid colors and adorable patterns. You can buy one for every day of the week! The adjustable neckband makes it easy to size the bib as your baby grows.
The bonus? Throw these bibs in the dishwasher with your baby's bowls and spoons for an easy clean.
What Parents Say:
"Absolutely love these bibs, a must have for any parent whose baby is starting solids!" - Jessica A.
2. BabyBjörn - Baby Bib - $19.99 (2 Pack)
BabyBjörn's bibs are both functional and cute. With a 2 pack, you can use one at home and keep one in your diaper bag. Or, you can have a fresh one for a meal while the other is in the dishwasher.
The neckband allows unlimited adjustments for the perfect fit. The pocket is also firm enough to catch food.
Do keep in mind that although it looks similar to silicone, the bib is made from BPA free polypropylene (PP) and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE).

3. BIBS - Dinner Bib - $12.99
The front clasp of this bib avoids catching your baby's delicate hair. Made of food-grade TPU, this bib works hard to keep your baby clean. Choose from five gorgeous colors. Ideal for babies six months and up, it is also a great toddler bib.
What Parents Say:
"Life saver. I can't recommend it enough." - Isabel Maria
Best Cotton Bibs
If your baby is a drooler or spits up frequently, an infant bib made of cotton is ideal. They effectively keep your baby dry. Plus, these bibs are also useful for wiping faces and noses (ask me how I know). You'll have to change them throughout the day to stay dry, but it's worth the fewer outfit changes.
Cotton bibs are also a great choice for meals, especially if your baby doesn't like the feel of a silicone bib. Here are some great options to try.
4. Oso & Me - Waterproof Bib - $26
This genius bib gives you the cotton feel without missing out on the waterproof feature. Organic cotton layers sandwich a waterproof layer, meaning it can absorb liquids without your baby getting wet.
The design gives great coverage, making it an excellent choice for messy meals. The adorable patterns mimic watercolors for a look you'll fall in love with.
What Parents Say:
"These bibs are great - fun prints, easy to use, large surface area, and fold up nicely to easily bring with you to restaurants, etc." - Caitlin
5. Colored Organics - Muslin Bibs - $28 (2 pack)
Looking for something basic, yet functional? These organic cotton muslin bibs fit the bill. Use them to keep your baby drool-free or toss them into your diaper bag to keep clean while eating snacks. Three snaps allow you to adjust the size.
The bibs are machine washable and soft enough for your baby's delicate skin.
