Someone in your office has had a baby and you’ve been volunteered to buy the gift; you’ve pulled your pregnant sister in law’s name out of the hat for Kris Kindle; your best pal who lives at the opposite end of the country has had twins……there are lots of circumstances where you need to buy a gift for a new mum or a mum-to-be and either don’t know what to buy or need to buy something that can be delivered.
In some of these situations, the staple-gift is a bunch of flowers. While I like a couple of peonies as much as the next girl, sometimes it’s really lovely to give something that is a little more personal and a little less transient. I’ve recently found an Irish site which may just provide the answer to these buying dilemas.
Baby Elephant is a lovely site which sells gorgeous gift hampers for mums-to-be, new babies and their new mums. There are lots of different hampers to chose from but they all contain fab organic goodies.
The mama-to-be hampers contain things like Lisbeth Dahl hand knitted ballerina slippers, Mama Mio skincare products and Vital Touch prenatal aromatherapy oils.
The hampers for new babies contain things like Cowshed organic baby skincare products, Organics For Kids playsuits and matching hats and JJ Cole nappy bags.
You can get hampers of skincare products just for new mums or you can treat both mammy and her bundle of joy with one of the combination hampers.
You can also create a bespoke hamper, just give the guys at Baby Elephant a call.
All hampers come in lovely gift boxes and can be sent along with a personalised card. The shipping options are great - you can arrange for next day delivery, have your gifts sent by registered post or even have same day delivery to the Dublin maternity hospitals. They also ship internationally.
With such a lovely range of products to chose from and options to suit every budget, Baby Elephant means that now there’s never any reason to resort to a bunch of yellow carnations !
