Christmas List for New Parents 🎄
Christmas: gift ideas for parents!
We'll keep this short, but the most sought-after gift for new parents is sleep. If someone asks you what to give them, offer a few hours of babysitting so they can have a nap. Even better, think about a full night's sleep!
Finally, even if full nights of sleep are still a distant dream, young parents will feel wonderfully cosy in beautiful Bonsoirs bed linen — and bonus: Les Petits Bonsoirs is also the secret to restful nights for little ones!
Gift ideas for a mum in the postpartum period
A Tajine Banane outfit
The fantastic breastfeeding clothing brand, founded by Alison Cavaille, is making waves — of milk. Since its launch, it has been revolutionising the world of breastfeeding by championing the right for every woman to breastfeed wherever and whenever she wants. Wearing a Tajine Banane t-shirt is like being part of a super cool gang.
Period pants
Yes, really, it's glamorous! Because these particular pants could well change her life. No more leaks, no more rushing out to buy protection again and again. Pantys has designed period pants that can also be worn during the postpartum period, after giving birth.
A magic breast pump
Today, we know that the postpartum period is a crucial time for new mothers. Fortunately, technology is stepping in to make life easier. Elvie is a young company seeking to address two major challenges for new mums: breastfeeding and pelvic floor rehabilitation. The brand has created two jewel-like products — you'll have to let us know what you think…
Gift ideas for adventurous parents
A weekend in the countryside
When you're parents, you need a change of scenery to reconnect with each other. Our tip? Treat yourselves to a stay in a cabin in the heart of nature. Being close to the forest lets you disconnect and rediscover what really matters. Perfect for a romantic getaway, with friends, or as a family.
A baby carrier
Whether for travelling or to free up their hands, parents will love the Studio Romeo baby carriers. Baby stays close to the heart, within kissing distance, and can go everywhere their parents go.
An all-terrain pushchair
When it comes to getting around, the pushchair is often considered the Rolls-Royce of little ones. We've spotted the Thules models, created by lovers of travel and sport.
Gift ideas for a mum-to-be
Spirits… without the alcohol!
This year, everyone will be raising a glass during the Christmas festivities, including the pregnant woman, thanks to JNPR. This young brand crafts alcohol-free and sugar-free cocktails. To be enjoyed without moderation, then…
A bola to share with your baby
During pregnancy, the mum-to-be can wear a bola. This ball-shaped necklace emits a gentle chime that soothes the baby throughout the pregnancy. After birth, the bola continues to be used. Its delicate little melody will reassure the baby whenever they hear it.

Gift ideas for foodie families
A treat for the taste buds
When you're new parents, you need energy, and that starts with a healthy, balanced diet. To help you, we've spotted the books by La Guinguette d'Angèle and her incredible recipes.
Super snacks
No time to cook yourself proper meals? We say yes to snacks, as long as they're indulgent and nutritious. That's precisely the mission of Jolly Mama and its snacks that help mums tackle many challenges (breastfeeding, periods, postpartum…).
A King's or Queen's plate!
Finally, because the vessel is just as important as what's on the plate, we've spotted the special kids' tableware by Mushie. Perfect for starting weaning, comfortably seated in our grow-with-me high chair TOBO!
Gift ideas for a baby… who will grow up!
A healthy feeding bottle
The Elhée feeding bottles have several special features. Round in shape and made from medical-grade silicone, they are anti-colic, free from harmful substances and perfectly adapted to babies' oral cavities. And on top of that, they're beautiful. What more could you ask for?
The most beautiful toys
Did you think you'd escape the toys? You do need to bring a little Christmas magic under the tree for the little ones. We've spotted the iconic soft toys by Main Sauvage, the Lily and River toys recognised for boosting children's motor skills, and of course our latest addition, the MILO play set.
The good news is that all these brands we love will be featured in our Advent calendar, join us on Instagram and try your luck!
