Want to know what to buy for baby’s first Christmas?
If you’re struggling for ideas for baby gifts this Christmas, we’ve put together a handy list of Christmas presents for newborns to give you a helping hand.
Newborn babies don’t want or need much, so it’s a great chance to invest in some quality products that can make all of your lives easier. You can also scatter in some small, practical gifts and little luxuries as stocking fillers that you and your baby will love.
Britax is a brand that helps you enjoy the journey of parenthood, giving you the tools to live your family life, your way. The Britax Safe-n-Sound Millenia™ car seat is a great option for a main present for your baby. It has impressive side impact cushions and firm ISOFIX anchorages. Plus the seat is capable of rear facing up to 2 -3 years, making it a long lasting gift.
Take extra care of your baby’s delicate skin with the Mustela Newborn Set. This practical carry bag contains four natural skincare products that are suitable from birth. Find out what is included here.

A Christmas stocking is the perfect place for a mixture of small, practical gifts and treats for your little one.
If you’ve got an older baby (check the age advice on the packets), sweet snacks can play a part in their Christmas stocking without resorting to sugar-packed, additive laden treats. Why not pop in a packet of Organix Gingerbread Men (read more about them here) or Kiddylicious make some delicious and fun Fruit Wriggles. They’re also perfect for snacks if you’re traveling this Christmas!

The Mater Baby Moisturiser makes a great stocking filler. Take a look here.
A simple pack of Waterwipes can be a practical gift that will come in useful if you are travelling to visit friends and family over the festive period. They are made using just water and a drop of grapefruit seed extract, and they are the only baby wipes to be approved by Allergy UK. Read more about what makes them so special here.
Sophie the Giraffe makes a lovely addition to any newborn baby’s stocking. Stimulating and easy to grip, this 100% natural rubber baby teether is BPA-free and is perfect for little fingers. Read why the TMB community love Sophie here.
