Baby Safety Alliance Reveals 2025 Awards of Excellence Winners

On October 21, 2025, the Baby Safety Alliance, known previously as JPMA, unveiled its prestigious Awards of Excellence. These awards celebrate the standout innovations in baby and children’s products that prioritize safety, convenience, and practicality. The initiative brings to light how design and functionality can enhance the overall experience for families.

According to Lisa Trofe, the Executive Director of the Baby Safety Alliance, the essence of these products lies in addressing a simple yet profound question: "How can we make life better for a family?" This is the core of excellence in product development, and this year's nominees reflect that commitment through meaningful innovations aimed at creating safer beginnings for children.

The Awards of Excellence, established back in 1989, proudly stand as the longest-running competitive event in the baby and children's product sector. Each year, a specialized panel of safety experts, retailers, and industry journalists evaluate all entries for their innovation, market impact, and potential to enhance family safety and convenience.

This year, Evenflo's remarkable product, the Revolve180™ LiteMax™ NXT with SensorySoothe™, was awarded Best in Show. Jon Conaway, Vice President of Product Management at Evenflo, expressed the honor, stating, “We are thrilled to be recognized by the Baby Safety Alliance, which sets the gold standard for safety and innovation. This award reinforces our mission to make life easier and safer for both parents and their children.”
