This year, the BabyWombWorld Portable Mesh Nebuliser Kit took the top spot as winner in the Baby Essentials category as well as the Overall Winner for the event.
Throughout 2017, companies exhibiting at the MamaMagic expos were encouraged to enter any product that they launched into the South African parenting market in the last 12 months into the New Product Awards 2017 to be judged by a panel of experts and parents. The products selected as the winners in the different categories received the highest scores in their respective categories.
Overall Winner and Baby Essentials: BabyWombWorld Portable Mesh Nebuliser Kit - A nebuliser that uses a vibrating mesh which changes medication from a liquid into a fine mesh, making inhaling medication easier for small children.

Nursery: Noonoo Pie Heartbeat Canvas - This keepsake takes one's baby's unique heartbeat from one's antenatal scan and turns it into a beautiful canvas.
