Looking for baby shower gift ideas? You’re in the right place! Whatever your budget, we've got you with this gift guide that’s full of ideas.

From thoughtful presents for Mum, to practical things that are sure to come in handy.  

Baby Shower Gifts for Mum 

When picking out gifts for a baby shower, don't just think about the new baby. The new parents will probably really appreciate receiving some practical stuff too. Consider things like a breast pump, absorbent breast pads, and nipple cream.  

Alternatively, for a little pampering, why not buy them a cosy pair of PJs or a gift card for a relaxing massage or beauty treatment? These small, thoughtful gifts can make a big difference during the postpartum period.

A Perfect Prep® machine 

Tommee Tippee prep machines make a perfect bottle of formula at the right temperature, fast. They’re 3 am lifesavers for tired new parents who’re using formula as part of their feeding routine. 

Sterilisers 

Sterilising is an important step when feeding a baby because it protects their developing immune system. We’ve got a range of sterilisers that use UV light or steam to ensure that all of their baby feeding equipment (including breast pumps and bottles) is sterile, safe and ready to use.   

All-in-one bundles 

When looking for the perfect gift for a new parent (and their baby), you can’t go wrong with an exclusive Tommee Tippee bundle. Get everything they’ll need to bottle or breastfeed, for less!

After ideas with a more personal touch? Why not consider a gift that goes beyond the practical?  

Mealtimes, sorted 

The new parents will soon have their hands full with an adorable (but demanding) newborn. The last thing they need to worry about is finding time to shop for groceries and cook healthy meals.  

A meal box subscription can be a game-changer. It takes one less thing off their to-do list, allowing them to focus on bonding with their baby and adjusting to their new role. With a meal box subscription, they can enjoy delicious, nutritious meals delivered right to their doorstep. It's a thoughtful and practical gift that will be greatly appreciated. 

Memories to treasure 

A baby memory book is a thoughtful gift that helps new parents document their child's early years. You could also include a disposable camera so they can capture some candid postpartum pics. Alternatively, you could buy them vouchers for a newborn photoshoot. Lots of professional photographers specialise in capturing newborn babies, and parents love to have lasting images to treasure for life.   

A personal touch 

If you know what the name of the new baby is going to be, you could get a personalised gift for their nursery. We love the idea of a framed print decorated with the new baby’s name. 

Use a Tommee Tippee wishlist 

If you’re not sure what to gift and want to let the new parents choose, then why not suggest that they create their very own baby shower gift list with the help of Tommee Tippee?  

All they need to do is… 

  1. Log into their Tommee Tippee account, or sign up to create one
  2. Browse the Tommee Tippee site and find the products that they’d love to receive. 
  3. Add them to their wishlist by clicking on the love heart icon.  
  4. View their completed wishlist by clicking on the love heart icon in the top right-hand corner of the screen. 
  5. From there, they can share their wishlist with friends and family via email and include a message of thanks.
