7 Amazing Presents for New Parents - Newborn Photographer North Wales

*this post was written while I still lived in the South. most items are available to buy online*

2020 has been a year like no other and the pandemic has affected everyone in different ways. Having a new baby in your life is tricky (and wonderful) enough as it is, without it happening in the middle of a global pandemic. This year more than ever, new parents could do with a little treat, and as it happens, I’ve collated 7 ideas for you that are perfect gifts for someone who’s had a baby in 2020 or is due soon. I’ve partnered with all of the businesses mentioned here to bring you the chance to WIN an amazing prize. Head over to my instagram page to see all the details and enter the competition.

  1. Personal Training Sessions with SC Fitness. Sian specialises in pre and post natal personal training to help you feel strong and healthy in your new body. She’s not a scary, shouty personal trainer - she’s really nice!


2. Swaddle Bundle from Mother England. These swaddles are my daughter’s favourites. The designs are gorgeous, and they’re so so soft. The muslins can be used as swaddles, light blankets, beach ponchos and for general newborn snuggling. They’re available in 3 colours, sustainably sourced and made after being designed by the lovely Harriet.


3. Fiona Walker Mini Tiger Head from Barney & Beau. Mia, founder and owner of children’s boutique Barney & Beau, manages to source the most beautiful toys and gifts for little ones. She stocks a huge variety of these gorgeous animal head that are the perfect finishing touch to your baby’s nursery or playroom.


4. Personalised Print from Buckle & Boo Printhouse. With lots of different designs and a range of frame options, these personalised prints from Cardiff business Buckle & Boo Printhouse are such a lovely way to welcome a new little one to the world.


5. Scented Candle from Studio Muse Pontcanna. From their in house range, these scented candles from Studio Muse are the perfect treat for new parents to help them relax when they get 5 minutes to themselves. There’s something so calming about lighting a candle in the evening, especially as the nights draw in and winter approaches.


6. New Parents Treat Box from the Vale Cake Boutique. Something sweet and sugary is exactly what’s needed to take the edge off those sleep deprived days! A treat box is perfect for new families (and will go down well with any older siblings too!).


7. Photoshoot Gift Voucher from Clare Harding Photography. I mean, I couldn’t not include this in my own blog, could I?! If you’re looking for an extra special gift for family or friends who’ve just had a baby, head over to my gift voucher page to buy them something that will last a lifetime. My vouchers include the session fee and an images package, so the recipient can enjoy the whole experience without worrying about ‘topping up’ the voucher.

Have you had a baby in 2020? Are you due soon? Let me know in the comments before what your ideal gift would be!
