For all new moms celebrating Mother’s Day this year we’ve carefully selected a range of special gifts that they’ll love! We’ve got it all covered - from unique personalized gifts and handmade creative keepsakes, to thoughtful and handy subscription boxes and self-care hampers.

Personalised Mom Gifts 

There is something truly special about personalized gifts that add a unique touch to your first mother’s day celebration. After all, it's the little touches and the effort put in that make these gifts truly magical.

  • Jewelry has long been a symbol of love and appreciation. Personalized jewelry, however, takes this sentiment to a whole new level! Delicate necklaces, bracelets, or rings engraved with initials, birthstones, or significant dates transform these pieces into timeless keepsakes, ensuring mom can hold onto the cherished memories forever.
  • When it comes to celebrating the arrival of a little one, personalized baby clothes add an extra layer of sentimentality to those precious early moments. From adorable bodysuits to snuggly blankets, incorporating personal touches like “Our First Mother’s Day” along with the date can turn these items into treasured mementos.
  • Everyone loves a “mommy and Me” gift - want to take family photos to the next level? Coordinated outfits are cute, but personalized ones? That's a whole new level of adorable! 

Self-Care Gifts

What better way to celebrate the incredible moms in our lives than with thoughtful self-care and relaxation gifts? Here’s some gift ideas that will leave her feeling pampered and rejuvenated, exactly what she needs after working so hard as a mommy!

  • Gift a well-deserved spa day or a pampering treatment voucher, providing a blissful break from the demands of new motherhood. Remember to get ahead of the game and organize childcare for the day too! 
  • Transform her space into a sanctuary of relaxation with aromatherapy gifts. Essential oil diffusers, scented candles, or even a set of soothing bath soaks and lotions can create an atmosphere of tranquility. Look out essential oils like lavender or eucalyptus for that extra touch of calm.
  • Let's pamper the queen of the house! A spa day at home is the perfect treat. Fill a hamper basket with her favorite body care treatments, her favorite snack or drink and maybe some plush slippers or cozy socks..

Mother's Day Subscription Boxes

If you’re on the lookout for a gift that keeps on giving, a subscription box or service is a great idea! There are also many one-off boxes you can choose from if you’re not wanting to commit to a subscription. These are some of our favorites:


Emmaline Bride, 2020

  • We all know that moms are fuelled every day by coffee, so why not set up a subscription that brings it straight to her door? Whether she's savoring a quiet morning or grabbing a quick pick-me-up, she’ll be sorted with this subscription box!
  • For the moms who love to get lost in a good book, a monthly book subscription box is a literary dream come true. This one from Cratejoy contains a book from her favorite genre, as well as some hand-selected chocolate and a hot drink she can cozy up with! It's a reading escape without leaving home. You can select a 1 month or 3 months subscription.
  • Give the gift of self-care with a one-off beauty box, like this one from BoxyCharm? Packed with skincare treats, makeup essentials, and pampering products, each box is a mini spa day delivered to her door. Plus, every box delivered is a reminder that she deserves a bit of self-care and indulgence. It's like a beauty routine upgrade, courtesy of you!
  • We also love this beautiful selection of Mother’s Day specific gift boxes from Marigold Grey, all with different themes and many price points to choose from.

Memorable Mother’s Day Keepsakes

Her first Mother's Day is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and that little bundle of joy is only going to be this tiny once. So, why not make it as memorable as possible with a keepsake that tugs at the heartstrings? Here are some thoughtful ideas:

  • Create a baby book filled with memories and milestones. Add adorable pictures, and heartfelt notes. If your little one is brand new to the world, consider adding special memories and pictures of the pregnancy journey. It's not just a book; it's a way to mark mom’s journey into motherhood!
  • Craft a beautiful baby hand or footprint keepsake such as this one from Pearhead, capturing the tiny details of this special moment in time. Put it in a charming picture frame or a memory box, turning it into a cherished piece that can be kept and admired forever.
  • Purchase a gift voucher or photography experience to snap a family portrait that includes the newest and smallest member! It's a keepsake that grows in sentimental value with each passing year.

Wishing you the happiest first Mother's Day 🌷💖
