2. The Ultimate Statement Baby Carrier
The Artipoppe baby carrier has achieved cult status in recent years. Endorsed by celebrities and royals, these beautiful carriers are created for mothers who refuse to compromise on style. Expertly crafted in Egyptian organic cotton, Cashmere, velvet and silk, these carriers start at around £300. The ultimate gift for a fashion forward new mum.
Choose from any of the exquisite designs (leopard print, crocodile, Yin Yang) or buy her a gift card so she can revel in pricking her own. Read more about these coveted carriers in my honest review here.
£300+ a little too spenny on this occasion? Thankfully there are a whole breed of Artipoppe dupes available which, although not as luxurious carry the same aesthetic.
You might also find Oscha slings to be a great alternative to the Aripoppe. These are similarly expertly crafted carriers made in Scotland with beautiful stand out designs and nature inspired prints. For the mum who likes to stay ahead of the current trend, I would consider taking a look. Oscha Slings are priced between £150 – £200.

13. A fitness Subscription
If the new mum in your life is eager to get back into shape, a month’s membership to a gym, some personal trainer sessions or a package of studio classes (yoga, pilates, spin) could be a great option.
However if you fear this is too bold and want to give an actual practical gift as well, this next product ticks all the boxes. The newly launched Carifit+ is a baby carrier designed for active parents. It is super light, appropriate for newborn through to young toddlers and is arguably the most intuitively designed baby carrier available.
The carrier also comes with a 12 month subscription to the Carifit app. This is an invaluable resource on all things postnatal and early motherhood. New mums can join virtual live exercise classes (both baby-wearing and Mat), listen to talks by medical experts and access meal plans and recipes. Combined, the carrier and app make an excellent gift that holistically supports the physical and emotional wellbeing of the new mother through the early months and beyond.

14. A good Book
‘When will she have time to read that?’ I hear you! And it’s a fair point although I would argue the extensive hours spent feeding might be adequate. A good book is a wonderful gift for the new mum whose brain feels numb with sleepless nights and lack of adult conversation. Simultaneously overstimulated and under-stimulated – this was me! ‘MotherKind’, Zoe Blaskley’s deep dive into motherhood offers a validating and judgement free read for mothers in need of reassurance and a galvanised sense of self.
15. A thoughtfully Selected Gift Card
When in doubt, the gift of choice is pretty unsurpassed. Whilst it’s lovely to be bought things its also pretty amazing to treat yourself…and a gift card allows you to do this guilt free. A gift voucher from The White Company, JoJo Maman Bebe, Newbie and John Lewis are excellent choices as they cater for both mum and new baby.
