Mother’s Day is fast approaching (Sunday, May 11), and besides finding that perfect gift for your own mum, it’s also an ideal opportunity to consider gift ideas for the new mums in your life. Those women who are about to celebrate their first Mother’s Day certainly deserve a little pampering.
As someone on the brink of becoming a new mum myself, I can tell you she’s likely exhausted and in need of some tender loving care — and that’s where you come in. Consider giving her something as simple as a lush new bathrobe or as luxurious as a spa day. Whatever you choose, she’ll be more than grateful.
Below, I’ve compiled a selection of gift ideas for new mums that, as an expectant mother, I would love to receive this Mother’s Day.
Mother’s Day Gift Ideas For New Mums
From spa days and luxurious robes to personalized jewelry and baby bags, there’s something to cater to every new mum’s needs.
Saint Valentine’s Mum Bracelet
This bracelet from Saint Valentine is a stunning gift choice for a new mum. Its design is incredibly clever, featuring bold, undulating letters linked by hand to subtly spell ‘MUM’ in its continuous pattern. It’s a perfect way to symbolize their new journey and is sure to make them feel incredibly special.
Shop Saint Valentine, $185
A Spa Day
Becoming a new mum is a whirlwind; some days are wonderful, while others can be challenging. So gifting a new mum a moment to pamper herself can be a truly thoughtful gift idea. We suggest giving them a voucher to a day spa like Endota, allowing them to select the treatment and time that fits their new hectic schedule.
Shop Endota, From $25
An At-Home Pilates Membership
One of the biggest challenges for a new mum is finding time for herself to get back into her favorite exercises. If she loves Pilates, she’ll likely appreciate a subscription to an at-home Pilates class like Fluid Form. This way, even if she only has 20 minutes while the baby naps, she can roll out a mat and get moving.
Shop Fluid Form, From $20
A Comfy Lounge Set
There are days when just getting dressed is a major accomplishment for a new mum (IYKYK), so help her feel a bit more put together on those days with a comfy lounge set. We adore these flare pants and crew knit combo from Nimble.
Shop Nimble, From $139
A Cute Baby Bag
As someone about to embark on motherhood, a stylish baby bag is high on my must-have list. I’m not keen on traditional styles, so when friends recommended The Philé Baby Bag, I was hooked. I even bought a second one for a friend due shortly after me. They make a wonderful gift that can be useful long after the baby years.
Shop Philé, $250
Nala Maternity Bralettes
A new mum can never have too many maternity bras, and Nala offers some of the best available. While this might be a more practical gift, it’s one that will be deeply appreciated.
Shop Nala, $69
Write To Me Baby Book
Time flies, especially when you’re a parent, so give her the gift of capturing all those special moments. This beautifully crafted linen-bound Baby Birth to Five Years book is the perfect place to document all the precious memories in the coming years.
Shop Write To Me, $54.59
Kahlia Skin LED Silicone Radiant Mask – Face, Neck & Décolletage
Gift her another 'me-time' moment with the Kahlia Skin LED Silicone Radiant Mask. It’s a two-piece mask delivering targeted LED light therapy to the face, neck, and décolletage, using 132 high-quality LEDs per piece. With seven different light treatments — including near-infrared — this mask aids in addressing fine lines, uneven tone, and redness, leading to a smoother, more radiant complexion.
Shop Kahlia Skin, $489
Mecca The Maker Lover Eau de Parfum
There’s something truly satisfying about concluding your morning routine with a delightful new fragrance. While gifting a perfume can be tricky, a little research can go a long way. Check out what’s already in their bathroom cabinet and note their fragrance preferences — floral, woody, citrus, fresh. Currently, our recommendation is The Maker’s Lover Eau de Parfum, a mesmerizing, woody scent composed of creamy sandalwood, luscious fig, and sparkling vetiver.
Shop The Maker, From $69
Hommey Robe
If she’s going to be spending more time at home with her new baby, she deserves to be cozy and stylish. We adore Hommey’s plush robes. Available in a variety of fun colorways, they’ll be her go-to every morning.
Shop Hommey, $149
Sarah & Sebastian Multi Petite Letter Necklace
There’s something incredibly touching about gifting a new mum a piece of jewelry that honors the birth of their baby. These letter necklaces from Sarah & Sebastian are such a thoughtful gift idea; you can add mum, dad, and baby’s initials to create a cherished family heirloom.
Shop Sarah & Sebastian, From $440
Bugaboo Kangaroo
If your group chat is considering getting the mum-to-be a special gift, pooling together for one of the big three — a cot, pram, or car seat — is a fantastic idea. As a soon-to-be mama, I found choosing these three items overwhelming (and costly), so having friends come together to gift one was a huge relief. The Bugaboo Kangaroo is one of the latest and greatest prams, especially if she plans on having more than one child.
Shop Bugaboo, From $1,199
The Dinner Ladies Gift Voucher
We all know mums pour love into dinners, but after giving birth, cooking might not be top of mind. Gift her a home-cooked meal with a voucher to The Dinner Ladies. They prepare and deliver a range of delicious home-cooked meals that any new mum will greatly appreciate.
Shop The Dinner Ladies, From $50
