Shopping for expecting parents can be overwhelming with all the various baby products out there. But, it doesn't have to be!
Gifting parents some of the baby essentials is the best way to go.
We have curated a list of the best gifts to give new parents if they don’t have a registry, so you can take the guesswork out of your shopping experience!
Diapering Essentials
Stocking up on diapers of various sizes, wipes, and diaper rash cream can be a practical and much-appreciated gift for new parents. These are items every parent will use every day and go through quickly, so there can never be too many diaper essentials in the nursery!
La Petite Creme has a perfect solution for you!
Our bundles have been specifically made for new parents to discover an all-in-one diapering solution for their new baby!
Made with only natural ingredients, Certified Organic and EWG Verified, both our diapering lotion and diaper balm will safely take care of their precious baby diapering routine. And the new parents will be delighted to receive such a thoughtful gift for their baby!
Baby Clothes
Baby clothes are a great item to gift because it gives you the opportunity to add a personal touch to your gift. It gives you the chance to have fun with shopping and the option to reflect on your own personal taste!
Choose a selection of newborn and 0-3 months sized clothing items, including onesies, sleepers, and outfits. Opt for soft fabrics and easy-to-dress designs.Â
Baby Care Kit
Assemble yourself a kit with different essential baby care items like a thermometer, nasal aspirator, nail clippers, baby lotion, and a baby brush.
These items are thoughtful and practical and they may not be items the parents already have, but things they will definitely need to care for their newborn baby.
Baby Carrier or Wrap
A baby carrier or wrap allows parents to keep their hands free while keeping their baby close and secure. Look for ergonomic designs that provide comfort and support. There are a lot of carriers and wraps in different colors, so you can have the opportunity to present a personalized gift that aligns with the parents' unique style and preferences.
Baby Books
Building a collection of children's books is a wonderful gift idea. Choose classics or popular titles that will engage the baby as they grow, and consider including some touch-and-feel or board books. Here you also have the chance to gift some of your own childhood favorites!
Baby Monitor
A reliable baby monitor offers peace of mind to new parents, allowing them to keep an eye on their little ones even when they're in another room. Baby monitors come in a variety of price points, so choose the one best for your budget. Any parent will appreciate that you are considering their little one's safety and valuing their own assurance.
Baby Bath Essentials
Put together a bundle of baby bath products such as gentle shampoo, body wash, hooded towels, washcloths, and a baby bathtub.
Much like diapering essentials, bath essentials are items that parents will use regularly and appreciate the practicality of the gift. Look for hypoallergenic and safe options to ensure their little one doesn’t experience any allergic reactions to the products.
Gift Cards
If you're still unsure about their preferences or want to give the parents the freedom to choose what they want, consider a gift card to a baby store or online retailer. This allows them to select items they need as they arise.
Remember to include gift receipts whenever possible for easy exchanges or returns. You may also want to take into consideration the parent's preferences when selecting a gift. It is also useful to consider the time of year the baby will be born, as this can influence what items can be of use during different seasons.Â
Whether you are a great gift giver or clueless about how to give a gift to a parent-to-be, our curated list will have you feeling confident in your purchase.
