3 Perfectly Practical Gifts for New Parents

 

 

Norsu-Organic’s Picks of the Top Gifts for New Parents

 

Do you know any new parents? If so, then you’ll realize they probably haven’t had a chance to shop for themselves in a while – they’re too busy pouring their previously peaceful nights, hearts, souls, and funds into their precious bundle of joy.

 

Seriously, though – new moms and dads are genuinely some of the most selfless souls on the planet, and we dare say these people need a little indulgence and pampering. It’s often tricky to buy great presents for new parents, so we’ve rounded up three gift ideas to help newbie parents adjust to life with a babe.

The Best Gifts for New Parents They’ll Actually Use

Whether you know a couple that’s expecting their first baby or has just welcomed a new arrival to their growing brood, parenthood can be mind-blowing. While it’s rewarding, and you never know a love quite like it, there’s no end to the hard work – we’re talking diaper changes, 2 a.m. feedings, and unavoidable meltdowns, to name just a few.

 

So, thoughtful gifts for new parents focused on alleviating busy days can make all the difference. With the arrival of a new little dumpling, moms and dads are often swamped with gifts. While they’ll no doubt be appreciative of any kind gesture, we think the most practical presents are those that not only put a big smile on their faces but also help ease some of the daily strains that come with the parenting game.

1.   Organic Cotton Onesie

Chances are, newbie moms and dads will be flooded with baby clothes, but this long-sleeve onesie is sure to stand out.

As part of our commitment to ethical practices, at Norsu-Organic, we ensure our partner factories are Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)-certified. Each comfy, relax-fit unisex garment contains no harmful toxins, chemicals, or flame retardants. Our apparel is super-safe for a newborn’s skin and crafted from eco-friendly, organic-grown cotton – the softest and most suitable fabric for tiny little humans!

This onesie seamlessly blends style and functionality, sporting moon motifs printed in planet-friendly ink.

2.   One-Off Homemade Gifts for New Parents

The best gifts for new mothers and fathers are either practical or things that make them grin from ear to ear – or a blend of the two! If you’re in the mood to create a truly personal present for a special couple who’ve just had a baby, then putting together your own new parents’ hamper is a sure-fire win.

 

When it comes to what to fill it with, think nursing pads, lip balms, bubble baths, postpartum body moisturizers, books, travel mugs, water bottles, dry shampoos, and even a bottle of fizz. Once you’ve assembled your items, put your gifts in a box or basket that can double as something functional – like somewhere to store the wipes and diapers.

3.   A Comfy, Versatile Baby Sling

Trying to manage housekeeping with a shrieking newborn isn’t easy, but a baby carrier is the perfect answer – it’ll help their little darling feel close to mom and dad and comforted while freeing up their parents’ hands. A baby sling is brilliant if they don’t want to take the stroller on a walk, and often, all the little one needs is to feel cozy and close to their parents.

 

Hands-free carrying offers the convenience of keeping the baby close, whether mom or dad is speaking on the phone, grocery shopping, or tending to another sibling.

 

The Takeaway

It’s no joke – the new mom and dad in your life will welcome any gestures of kindliness, whether they come in the form of a visit, phone call, or gift-wrapped in a pretty bow. We hope these gifts for new parents ideas will help you get the ball rolling, but ultimately, the best present is just being there to tell them, “You’ve got this.”
