If there’s one thing motherhood teaches you fast, it’s that no two days look the same. One morning, you’re out for hours juggling errands, snacks, and extra outfits. The next, you’re dashing into Target for a quick pickup, toddler in tow, coffee in hand, and zero patience for bulky bags.
That’s why at Lion & Light, we created two thoughtfully crafted options for modern moms: the Jetsetter Mini Diaper Bag and the Jetsetter Petite Crossbody Bag. Both are compact, functional, and stylish diaper bags made to fit different seasons of motherhood. Whether you're deep in baby mode or breezing through toddlerhood, these bags meet you where you are.
So how do you choose the right one? Let’s break down the features, fit, and real-life use cases of both.
The Jetsetter Mini Diaper Bag: Your Everyday Essential
The Jetsetter Mini Diaper Bag is the ultimate compact diaper bag designed to make your daily routine smoother and more stylish. It’s the first bag we launched and for good reason. Moms everywhere love its perfect blend of functionality and fashion.
Dimensions: 12" W x 8" H x 4" D
Strap: Adjustable up to 53"
Don’t be fooled by the “mini” name. This small diaper bag holds way more than you think:
-
Diapers and wipes (with a dedicated wipes pocket for one-handed access)
-
A change of clothes (rolled up to save space)
-
Snacks, a sippy cup, or a bottle
-
Keys, wallet, and phone (with a removable pocket that fits right onto the strap)
-
Pacifier holder, baby pacifier case, or small toys
Designed to be worn as either a crossbody diaper bag or a belt bag, the Mini frees up your hands for parenting on the move. Its adjustable strap ensures a comfortable fit whether you’re pushing a stroller or chasing a toddler through the park.
The sleek quilted nylon exterior is lightweight, water-resistant, and easy to clean, perfect for unpredictable mom life. And with gold hardware, it feels more like a designer diaper bag than a traditional diaper backpack.

Works for both babies and toddlers
-
Spacious without being bulky
-
Includes a built-in phone and wallet pocket

Pull-ups or a diapers

Real mom approved:
“Best Crossbody Bag!”
Love this bag!! I needed a crossbody bag to run errands while caring for my school-age kids. This bag is perfect!! Small enough to function as a crossbody but large enough to fit so much—phone, keys, sunglasses, and most importantly snacks!! Also has gold chain straps that can function as a shoulder bag for nicer events. As a busy mom on the go, even with older children, this bag is a must-have!!!
The Petite is ideal for moms who’ve graduated from full-sized diaper bags but still need a few essentials within arm’s reach. If you’re looking for the best mini diaper bag that doesn’t look like a diaper bag at all, this is it.
So… Which One Is Right for You?
Choose the Jetsetter Mini if you:
-
Have a baby or younger toddler and still carry backup clothes, multiple diapers, and extras
-
Like the option to overpack without the bulk of a traditional bag
-
Prefer a sportier, hands-free vibe with built-in storage for phone and wallet
-
Want a diaper bag that doubles as your daily crossbody purse
Choose the Jetsetter Petite if you:
-
Have a toddler or older child and only need your essentials

Want a small diaper bag crossbody that transitions from errands to evenings out

-
Prefer a minimalistic setup with room for your must-haves (and a little style bonus)
Why You Might Want Both
Here’s the honest truth: your parenting days vary and so should your gear. Many moms switch between the Jetsetter Mini and the Jetsetter Petite depending on the occasion.
-
Traveling? Bring the Mini and toss the Petite inside as a slim secondary option.
-
Running quick errands or heading to brunch? Grab the Petite and go.
-
Want your hands free but still organized? Either bag functions as a crossbody diaper bag or even a fanny pack diaper bag with the right strap setting.
Owning both means you’re ready for whatever your day brings, whether it's a diaper blowout or a spontaneous dinner date.
