5 Holiday Gift Ideas for Parents To Be

by Samantha Garcia Gagnon

Have you got some family or friends expecting their first baby soon? Here are some holiday gift ideas!

# 1 - Holiday Ornament 

What a beautiful way to document this time in their life - with an ornament that they can re-use year after year. We particularly love this one that can be personalized  from Elizabeth Bonura on Etsy.

#2 - Nook GlowLight Reader

It is no secret that new babies are going to be keeping their parents up well into the night. With this NOOK GlowLight Reader, you can help the parents to be stay entertained! With over 3 million books easily accessible, there really is something for everyone.

#3 - The Information Blanket

This blanket is full of useful information about babies, including  feeding frequency, growth charts, temperature information and illness warning signs. The BEST thing about The Information Blanket? For every blanket that you buy, another one is donated to a mom and baby in need from developing countries. These blankets can save lives for many impoverished children by providing vital information for new parents who may not have access to such information otherwise. What a great initiative!

#4 - Letters to My Baby

Another really special gift for parents to be - the Letters to My Baby book is full of writing prompts for parents to spend some time connecting to their baby to be. While it may be a few years before baby will be able to understand (and ever longer until they appreciate it), once they do, it will truly be such a treasure!

#5 - Doula Gift Cards

If you really want to help your parent to be friends have a good birth experience, a gift card for doula services is the best option. Many families really appreciate the help their friends and family give them when it comes to paying for doula fees. To set this up, simply pop us a message. All gift cards are presented in beautiful envelopes and card stock.
