BABY GIFTING GUIDE

We’ve got all the best baby gifts for new parents, siblings and more! Made from the highest quality ingredients like 100% cotton and 100% cashmere, our baby collection is both cute and comfy for little ones. When we designed our baby collection, we had two goals in mind: create a gift that’s both beautiful, well made and sensitive to baby skin.

The best gift is the new little bundle of joy, so what better way to welcome ten little fingers and ten little toes than a luxury gift from Baskits! Perfect for employee gifting and sending congratulations from the whole team.

The most suitable gifts for babies engage their senses. Even though it may seem like babies are only sleeping and feeding, the first year of life is full with profound changes in their development. Babies are prepared to play even before they can grip a toy.

Shop the best in unique baby gift baskets and personalized baby gifts to celebrate one of life's most special occasions...the birth of newborn babies, toddlers and children of all ages. We specialize in one-of-a-kind keepsake gifts that are practical and adorable for new arrivals and their proud new parents as well as stunning corporate baby gifts for company and business gifting employees, clients, administrative staff or co-workers.

Things new parents care about

New parents have probably been daydreaming about their new baby's appearance, voice, and even how they feel. No matter how much planning they have done, they may appreciate a few tips on how to take care of a newborn, especially if it's their first child.

Many new parents have been in that position, unsure of how to take care of their newborn during those exciting but often challenging first few weeks. If you are looking to find gifts for new parents, read on for tips on how to find the perfect gift with our new parent baby gift guide.

What to look for when gifting for new baby

Gifts from their baby registry and things that are useful—like teething toys or soft blankets—will always be welcome. But other items, like child-safe seats for when the growing baby learns to sit or sound machines to soothe them to sleep at night, might be the right gift for the growing family. If you’re still not sure what to buy, a sentimental or personalized gift to mark the occasion may be just right. When considering products, evaluate safety, design, materials, usefulness, and age recommendations.

Look into gifting all natural, lightly scented baby lotion and baby wash that is soft on baby's skin and perfect for bath time. Our exclusive Jake and Jill line of products is a great option.

Buying a helpful gift will always be appreciated, whether you're buying for a birth, birthday, the holidays, or just because. Think about the hobbies and way of life of the baby or the parents or other careers. Knowing these hobbies gives you a head start in deciding where to start, but it's alright if you're unsure because there are still lots of things available that are practical for daily living.

Add style to the new baby's closet with a stylish pair of shoes from Our Jake and Jill collection. Cute and sporty shoes for a sweet little one, these black running shoes are durable and lightweight.

How to find the perfect gift for New Baby

Choosing the best baby gift can be challenging, whether you're searching for something to celebrate a baby's first birthday or you're on the hunt for the appropriate gift to welcome a newborn into the world. This search is made even more difficult if the new parents already had a baby shower and their registry is rather full. We recommend choosing something kind and practical.

How about a personalized step stool that makes a great decorative addition to any child's room or playroom. This keepsake gift can be used for many years to come!


Whatever the gender, cute baby clothing is usually a great choice. Be sure to take the season and size into account when deciding whether to give apparel. During the cold Canadian winters, gift the newborn a 100% cotton sweater and hat set to keep them cozy all season long. You can find these adorable sets in many of our gift baskets! *Fits up to 12 months

When giving to a coworker, a member of your friend group, or even a neighbour, giving a baby gift as a group might be a great alternative. Everyone can pitch in and splurge for a beautiful baby gift the new parents are sure to love!

First Steps is a luxurious and thoughtful baby gift that they will grow into and love for years to come.

Gender Reveal

Gender Reveal parties have recently become popular over the years where the parents will reveal the gender of their new baby in elaborate and creative ways such as cutting a cake to reveal the colour or popping balloons with confetti. It is not always customary to bring a baby gift but it is always a nice gesture! And it could be a cute gift set for Mom, Dad, Baby, or all of them. You might give them a gift they can use right now or something they can store for the birth of the new baby.
