Skincare
California Baby
Newborns to adults with sensitive skin can use this Therapeutic Relief Eczema Shampoo & Bodywash, which has been allergy tested and uses plant based ingredients.
Founded by Jessica Iclisoy, California Baby’s products use plant based ingredients that are safe for newborns. Some of these ingredients include organic calendula, soap bark, aloe vera and essential oils. All of them are blended in their own FDA-registered and certified organic, solar-powered facility in the USA. Additionally, all products are strictly allergy tested, and free from gluten, soy, dairy and nuts (except for coconut).
Their products range from shampoos and conditioners, body lotions and creams, to bath accessories and sunscreen. In particular, these products also cater to babies - and adults - with sensitive skin or eczema. For example, California Baby’s Therapeutic Relief Eczema Shampoo & Bodywash ($59.43, UP $84.90) is free from alcohol, steroids, sulfates, fragrance and dyes. This low-foaming cleanser helps protect, relieve and restore the natural skin barrier.
Mother’s Day Exclusive: Get these California Baby products at 30 per cent off.
Gaia
GAIA’s Women Collection features skin-softening organic oils, active organic botanical extracts and vitamins, perfect for helping with stretch marks or sore nipples.
Offering Australian skincare for the whole family, GAIA’s products use natural and certified organic oils and extracts, great for those with sensitive skin. Additionally, they’re free from any ingredients that might irritate or dry out the skin. Thus, they contain no phthalates, sulphates, paraben preservatives, petrochemicals and mineral oils.
Pregnant mums can use the Belly Butter ($27.12, UP $33.90), containing organic rosehip and wheat germ oils that aid in skin elasticity and are great for dry or itchy skin. Using pure essential oils like mandarin, tangerine and frankincense, the Belly Butter also helps smooth lines and scars to fade stretch marks. Otherwise, nursing mums can use the nipple balm ($23.92, UP $29.90) to moisturise and soothe sore and cracked nipples. This is made from pure, edible organic oils like sunflower and avocado, so mums don’t have to rinse before feeding.
Mother’s Day Exclusive: All Gaia products are at 20 per cent off.
Cherished Memories
Motherswork My Beginnings Baby Book
Let mums capture their precious memories of their pregnancy journeys and their babies’ first years with these gorgeous ring bound, leatherette baby journals.
Especially for expecting mothers, this collaboration between three mums culminated in a personalisable keepsake to chronicle parents’ memories of their little one. In the My Beginnings Baby Book ($120), this baby journal has four different chapters. For example, chapters include the couple’s journey, pregnancy, their baby’s arrival and first year.
Hence, the journal is filled with a variety of activity pages, tracking growth charts and spaces for pictures and handwritten notes and a pregnancy wheel to calculate the due date. Additionally, this Baby Book also includes two handbooks written by Dr Ann Tan and Sharon Wong. A skilled practitioner with 20 years of specialised experience, Dr Ann shares her medical insights in the What to Expect When mums are Pregnant handbook, walking mums through their pregnancy and their babies’ deliveries. Mum of three Sharon Wong has spent more than 25 years sourcing baby products from around the world, and she shares what - and when - to purchase your newborn’s essentials.
Mother’s Day Exclusive: The Bynd Artisan Beginnings Book Collection & Milestone Cards Bundle ($150, UP $169) features the My Beginnings Baby Book, the Bynd Artisan Mini Photo Frame, and Motherswork Milestone Cards.
Mini Photo Frame
Another meaningful gift for mums is this Bynd Artisan mini photo frame - especially if you include photos of their newborns.
This gorgeous photo frame ($30) is natural grained leatherette pasted over the hardboard, with three photo slots. These are perfect for square photos measuring 70 by 70mm or smaller. Matching the Baby Book, the frames are available in pink, teal and taupe, and mums can personalise the frames with the baby’s name in a choice of five different scripts. It will take an average of one week to process.
Diaper Bags
Lassig
The Mix ‘n’ Match diaper bag from Lassig features a 100 per cent recycled polyester outer shell, with removable compartments so mums can keep all their baby’s essentials perfectly organised.
Lassig produces sustainable yet functional diaper bags that can be worn in a variety of ways.

It comprises a large main compartment, with a water-repellent changing mat and wet pocket, as well as a zip pouch. In terms of organisation, there’s a removable compartment for baby food jars and an insulated bottle holder. Both the bottle holder and the baby food jar compartment are removable.
