It depends on the size of your family. Standard cabins fit two, but many can fit three or four with pull-out sofas and upper bunks that pull down from the ceiling. Designated family cabins can sleep five or six, and some upper-tier suites can fit as many as 14 in a series of interconnected rooms.
Sleeping four to a cabin can often be the most economical way to go, but you'll be in close quarters, sharing one bathroom, and storage and floor space will be tight. Many cruise lines will let you put children of a certain age in an adjoining room or a cabin across the hall.
Most cruise lines will provide portable cribs (usually Pack 'n Plays) on request; let your travel agent or cruise line representative know as soon as you book. High chairs are typically available in dining areas. A few lines will puree food for new eaters, but not all, so it's best to check.
Generally, cruise lines won't provide strollers, diaper pails, bottles or bottle warmers for your little ones. (Disney offers a few of these things, but it's the exception.) You usually can get a mini-fridge in your room to store milk, but double check whether you need to request one or if they come standard.
A few cruise lines sell diapers and wipes, but most do not sell baby items or children's medicines. You can likely find items like regular toothbrushes and toothpaste, sunscreen and after-sun lotion, and kids T-shirts
