Baby Hamper Ideas for Parent and New-born

Celebrating the birth of a new arrival is always a memorable event, so you should have a gift to match. Luckily, Regency Hampers has a wide selection of luxury baby hampers to pamper parents and their new-born.

What to put in a baby hamper

Baby hampers are lovely ways of marking precious moments, but knowing precisely what to put in a baby hamper can be tricky. After all, perhaps the new parents don’t want to receive alcohol, ruling out the go-to option of champagne, or maybe they have a sweet tooth, making the traditional hampers too far removed from their tastes. And what about the baby?

That’s why we have a huge range of treats to suit any lucky recipient – and if you really can’t find that perfect match, we can help you make it. Our Make Your Own hamper option lets you select your precise treats, how it’s presented and when it should be delivered, in just a few clicks. But before you head off to create a custom order, give our carefully curated hampers a browse. We might just have just the thing your friends and their new baby will love.

New baby hampers

We’ve rounded up some of our favourite baby hamper ideas to make it quick and easy to find the best gift. You don’t have to spend time sourcing your different items from different shops or wondering what to put in a baby hamper to create a perfectly themed gift – we’ve done it all for you. Here are some of our best picks.

Hamper Ideas for Babies

Traditional colour theme baby hampers

If you wish to celebrate the traditional way, our baby hampers include options on colour themes. Welcome a baby boy with a hamper in blue, such as our Run Rabbit Run hamper which includes cuddly bunny toys, blankets and rattles, as well as baby-friendly bubble bath and a rubber ducky. Little princesses will be spoilt with our Hush Little Baby hamper in pink. Coming full of soft and cuddly cuteness, this baby hamper features a comfort blanker, baby clothes, muslin cloths, plush toys and a super soft bath towel.

Toy gifts for baby

Our gift sets include adorable cuddly toys for baby to enjoy, available in a range of colour options and with personal embroidery choices, too. It’s not all about new-borns, either. Maybe you’re celebrating that all important 1st birthday, or just want to make their 2nd birthday every bit as special. Our Round & Round the Garden hamper does just that, packed full of fun and games to be cute, colourful and educational for little ones. Coming with an adorable frog backpack so little ones can strut their own unique style, we’ve also included items such as a music box, alphabet blocks, “baby’s first” puzzle and a money box, for little touches of love that can enhance their room, wardrobe and play.

Clothes for baby

For the more practical parents, our Bundle of Joy clothing set is the perfect pick. Coming with a 5-piece set to dress baby, it includes a sleepsuit, vest, hat, bib and toy. Also included is a personalised blanket, all beautifully presented in Regency Hamper style.

Hamper Ideas for New Parents

It’s easy to forget all about the parents when you’re excited to gift little ones all sorts of adorable treats. So, if you want to show the new parents you’re thinking of them too, then we have just as many baby hamper ideas for the grownups! Here are some of our top picks.

Baby shower hamper ideas

Celebrating a new little one starts even before they arrive! Our baby shower hamper range is sure to inspire you to create a memorable event for soon-to-be parents.

It’s the perfect way to celebrate the whole family.

Our wide range of chocolate hampers offers the ideal gifts for chocoholics. Our Chocolate Tasting Experience comes in a stunning personalised wooden box and ticks all the boxes for those with a sweet tooth, whether their preference in milk, dark or white.

Tasty treats are just what new parents will need to recharge as they take on the world’s most stressful job – looking after baby. Our cheese hampers are sure to be a hit, like our personalised Cheese & Wine Favourites set which comes with two premium cheddar varieties and oat cakes and red onion marmalade to enjoy them with, as well as a bottle of red wine.

There’s no beating the most classic of baby hamper ideas – a fresh fruit basket. The perfect choice for parents who prefer natural sweet treats or who stick to a healthy diet, and no one will turn their nose up at our beautifully presented baskets of fresh fruits.
