What to Give New Moms This Mothers Day
On Mother's Day, we celebrate the unique women in our lives who have provided us with love, support, and wisdom.
For new moms, this day is particularly meaningful as they celebrate their first Mother's Day. As a friend or family member of a new mom, you may be wondering what to give her on this special occasion. Let’s explore some thoughtful and meaningful Mother’s Day gifts that will make any new mom feel loved and appreciated.
Ideas for New Mum Gifts
Relaxation Gifts
Being a new mom can be exhausting, so a gift that promotes relaxation and self-care is always appreciated. You can create a spa basket filled with bath bombs, candles, and luxurious lotions, or gift a cosy robe and slippers for lounging at home. A relaxation gift will help new moms unwind and take some much-needed time for themselves.
Caffeine-Free Tea
Packed with antioxidant-rich Goji Berries, Hibiscus, and Cranberries, give the new mom a well-deserved ‘me time’ with Mama Needs a Break by Positivithé. Let them feel the worries of the day fade away with each sip of the brand’s well-loved Restorative Elixir.
The perfect brew for an imperfect world, Positivithé’s caffeine-free teas are concocted to promote a little bit of positivity through the health benefits that each ingredient offers. Inspired by the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda and Herbology, their tisanes are crafted to help ease the stressors of modern life and to reduce anxiety, balance mood, and help one find their centre.
Tea Gift Set with Infuser
Shinrinyoku Tea Gift Set
With your choice o premium loose-leaf teas like Chocolate Black Tea, Lavender Grey Earl, Jasmine Peach Green Tea and many others, this gift set from Shinrinyoku also comes with an adorable ceramic tea infuser.
Known for its calming and soothing properties, tea is an ideal beverage for relaxing after a long day. A cup of tea as a Mother’s Day gift can help new moms relieve stress, reduce anxiety, and improve mood.
Self-Care Bundle
Featuring one of our favourite Affirmation Candles (I AM ENOUGH), this Mother's Day gift reminds her to pause and take some time for herself. After all, she takes such good care of all of us! Let Mum indulge in the calming scent of lavender and experience the soothing benefits of this timeless and cherished botanical.
It is paired with Positivithé’s Mama Needs a Break, and to add a touch of everlasting beauty, we've included a mini preserved bouquet. Made with real flowers that have been carefully preserved, this exquisite bouquet will brighten up Mum's day and serve as a lasting reminder of your love.
Bath Salt or Shower Steamer Bundle
Made with natural Himalayan salts and 100% pure essential oils, our bath salts are meant to elevate anyone’s self-care routine with their combined therapeutic benefits. As another option, the shower steamer is also available, also with 100% pure essential oils, to enjoy the benefits of aromatherapy through a hot shower.
The Scents of Self-Care bundle is made complete by your choice of room spray. For new mum gifts, we highly recommend Sweet Dreams (Are Made of These) for a calming mist after bath.
Flower Gifts
Flower Bouquet
We all know that a flower bouquet is a classic and popular gift for Mother's Day. Flowers have long been associated with emotions such as love, gratitude, and admiration, making them a perfect gift for Mother's Day. Therefore, a flower bouquet is a beautiful and meaningful way to express love and appreciation for the mom in your life.
To make your gift even more meaningful, why not support a social enterprise flower studio with your bouquet purchase? Hello Flowers! is our favourite flower shop in Singapore for Mother's Day gift ideas! Among their social initiatives is a sustainable cooperative that provides opportunities for participation and empowerment to women from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Preserved Flower Diffuser
Sustainable and eco-friendly, these bouquets (which also function as a reed diffuser) from our Scented Eternal Bouquet Collection are made with preserved flowers that can last for up to three (3) years. They are also scented with 100% pure essential oils — so aside from their pleasant fragrance, they bring in a little bit of aromatherapy for mom!
Mini Bouquet
Featuring preserved flowers that have been scented with 100% pure essential oils, the flowers from our Mini Bouquet collection can last longer than your fresh flowers! Adorable in size, they are perfect for those looking for small gifts for new moms.
Other New Mum Gifts
Personalized Jewelry
A piece of personalized jewellery is a timeless gift that new moms will cherish for years to come. You can have a necklace or bracelet engraved with the baby's name or birthdate, or choose a charm that represents motherhood. Personalized jewellery is a beautiful and sentimental gift that will remind new moms of their special bond with their children.
You can also choose to give a new mom a bracelet with her or her baby’s birthstone. These bracelets from soulviiibes are a wonderful way to celebrate life and love on Mother’s Day.
Photo Gifts
New moms love to capture every moment of their baby's life, so a photo gift is a thoughtful and practical choice. You can create a photo book or album filled with pictures of the baby's first year, or have a canvas print made of a favourite family photo. A customized photo gift will be treasured by new moms as they watch their little ones grow up.
Baby Gear
New moms are always in need of practical baby gear, and gifting a useful item can make their life a little easier. You can choose a high-quality stroller, a comfortable baby carrier, or a stylish diaper bag. A useful gift will be appreciated by new moms who are navigating the challenges of parenthood.
Time
One of the most valuable gifts you can give a new mom is your time. Offer to babysit for a few hours so she can have a much-needed break, or cook a meal and bring it over to her house. Spending time with a new mom and offering your support is a meaningful and heartfelt way to celebrate Mother's Day.
