One of the suggestions I found while looking for things to do at a Mother Blessing was the idea of a Nurture basket. A nature basket is full of goodies just for mum (& maybe the occasional thing for bub)!
How awesome is that idea? I know most, if not all, new mums would love it!
Following is a list of ideas for a Nurture Basket. Thanks to the fellow Bub Hub birth group mum's for some of these ideas.
- a journal and nice black pen
- restaurant gift certificates
- books
- CD of lullabies
- massage gift certificate
- bath and lotion items - think bubble bath, hand cream, face masks, body lotion
- chocolate
- bathrobe
- pyjamas
- nipple soothing cream
- cleaning voucher (or a IOU for an hours cleaning or laundry)
- scented candles
- A voucher for new underwear
- A subscription to a parenting magazine
- A beauty voucher for a manicure, pedicure or facial
- A voucher for a hair cut and colour
- A potted plant in a fancy pot
- A filter water bottle
- A Gift Subscription to The Australian Breastfeeding Association (or your countries equivalent)
- CD of relaxation tunes
- snacks for labour
- keepsake box
- a baby book
- note cards, envelopes (& stamps) - great for sending thank you’s
- slippers
- a good eye mask
- luscious lip balm
- a labour kit
