If there is anyone who deserves to be spoiled for Christmas, it’s new moms. Whether you’re shopping for you BFF who is a new mama or a new mom yourself who’s trying to come up with a Christmas list to send to family, this guide is for you! We’re talking all things MOM in this post and I’ve got 14 ideas here, many that have been my personal favorites to receive as a new mom or gift as a new mom. Some are even recommendations from the mamas in the Made in Mom Jeans community! I hope these gifts help ya cross off a few new mamas on your list this year!
A few notable ideas:
Hello Fresh - Now that I’ve been a mom for nearly 8 months, one of the best things I can recommend for new mamas is a meal kit delivery service. Some weeks it’s just nice to know that you don’t have to worry about meal planning and dragging the baby and yourself to the grocery store at least once. Justin and I absolutely LOVED HelloFresh the year and a half we used it and have been anxiously awaiting the perfect time to start it up again. Have a friend that just had a baby recently? This is the perfect welcome home gift for those first few weeks. Still expecting? Purchase a gift card for the new mama to redeem once she’s had her baby! This link will get you $40 off your first box!
Hair and Nail gift certificates - The number one response when I asked the moms in the MIMJ community what they wanted for Christmas as a new mama was time and money to get their hair and nails done. As a new mom, it is so hard to make time to take care of yourself and our personal appearance is often the first thing that goes out the window. If there’s a new mom in your life, make her day by getting her a gift certificate for her favorite salons. Better yet, make her an appointment and hire a baby sitter or offer to watch the baby yourself! Husbands, this is a great idea for you!
Chatbooks Subscription - We have been using the Chatbooks subscription service since Jasper was born and it is one of my top favorites for the year! At $10 every 60 photos, this is a great idea for those of you who have a new mom in your life but maybe on a tight budget. There are a few ways to gift this subscription from giving a gift card to helping them set up the app with your Paypal in order to pay for it monthly. Want to gift it to yourself? Use the code DARRIAN-WKQ4 to get your first book FREE (up to $10).
TULA Beauty Skin Essentials Routine Kit - You guys know I’ve talked about TULA Beauty products basically all year (you can read my reviews here and here). This TULA skin essentials kit is a great gift option for new moms, especially one that needs a little kick in the butt to take better care of her skin (guilty!). This kit has all of my favorite products including the primer! Plus, the items are full-sized making this kit a STEAL of a deal for the holidays. Add this to my list!

Mama sweatshirt - I love how cute this Mama graphic sweatshirt is! So comfy for the winter months and those days when you just need to throw your hair up and get stuff done.
Mama necklace - I’ve been seeing these necklaces everywhere lately so if you’re looking for a trendy gift for the fashion-obsessed mama, this is it!
Ember mug - This self-heating mug is definitely on my Christmas list this year!
Pajama sets:
Tank and Short PJ set - I am a huge fan of matching pjs. I don’t know if it’s a mom thing or an age thing but having a pj set makes me feel so much more put together. Cute pjs are a secret hack I have for practicing a small bit of self care. These look so soft and comfy!
L. L. Bean set - Here in Alaska we need all the warm clothing we can get, especially in the PJ department. These look so cozy and you know they’ll last forever.
Instant Pot - I wouldn’t have survived the last seven months without our Instant Pot. If there’s a mom on your list who doesn’t have one, this is a no brainer.
Barefoot Dreams Blankets - I didn’t believe the hype of these things until I found a sweater at my local thrift store but these are absolutely great for any gal who likes to get cozy. Bonus points: grab the stroller blanket for her babe!
Ugg Slippers - I grabbed these exact slippers in brown over a year ago now and they’re a great gift for new moms! Great for throwing on to leave the house in a hurry or when you just need to have a super casual day and the best for wearing around the house when you’re shushing a cranky baby!
iRobot Sweeping and Mopping Robot - We got this exact iRobot for a wedding present and it has saved my life more than a few times since Jasper was born. I love the sweep and mop feature so it’s great for a quick clean up!
