NailFrida Electric Nail Trimmer

Pediatrician-recommended electric trimmer parents actually use

Frida's NailFrida Electric has earned its top spot by eliminating the biggest fear in baby nail care: nicking the skin. The spinning filing pad works gently on newborn-thin nails and the built-in LED makes 2am maintenance manageable. Four included pads cover every stage from newborn through toddler — a staple in nearly every new parent's bathroom.

✓ Pros

  • Electric filing pad spins gently — nearly impossible to cut baby's skin
  • 4 filing pads for different ages from newborn through toddler
  • Built-in LED light illuminates nails in low light; USB rechargeable

✕ Cons

  • Filing takes longer than clipping — may frustrate squirmy toddlers
  • Replacement pads sold separately
