The holiday hustle and bustle is always an exciting time, but for those new and expecting parents this season is especially bright! Whether celebrating Baby’s 1st Christmas or anxiously awaiting your little one’s arrival, this time brings out the joy in us all and reminds us to be thankful for all the blessings in our lives.
So, whether you’re curling up in front of the fire with a cup of hot cocoa, heading out to a holiday party or watching your little one take their first steps toward the Christmas tree, Daily Mom has you covered with the perfect presents for both babies and expectant moms this year!
Baby Carriers by Tula
Perfect for any parent that could use a hand
As a parent of multiples, having your hands free is essential – whether that’s around the house or out exploring the great outdoors. Tula understands this, as well as the fact that this need doesn’t go away once your little one isn’t exactly so little anymore. The Tula Toddler Carrier has the widest and largest panel of all carriers, allowing parents to carry children weighing from 25 lbs up to a whopping 60 lbs. The breathable canvas, reinforced leg supports, and padded shoulders – not to mention the adorable designs – make outings with your toddler in tow incredibly easy and even fun!
Tula Toddler Carrier:
- Ergonomic M-Position Seat for baby’s safe development
- Dual adjustment padded shoulder straps
- Wide padded waistband with pocket
- Reinforced leg padding
- Can be worn on the front or back
- Detachable hood
But wait – that’s not all! Babywearing dreams do come true, and that’s the case with this stunning woven wrap from Tula – in Voyage Corsica. This wrap is solid – super strong, sturdy, soft, 100% cotton woven fabric, which is appropriate for newborns all the way through toddlers – in front, side, or back carries. The Voyage Corsica weave is made of the most delicious shades of aquas and teals that will surely make your babywearing heart go pitter-pat this holiday season.
Woven wraps are so incredibly versatile, because there are hundreds if not thousands of configurations you can learn to safely and comfortably wear your little one. Tula wovens are unique to Tula, and you won’t find these beautiful patterns or striking colors anywhere else. Each wrap is OEKO-TEXÆ Standard 100 certified, and this specific wrap is a medium weight (270 GSM), woven in Poland, and available in wrap sizes 2 through 7 (size 6 shown here on a newbie wrapper, 5 feet 4 inches tall). Wraps can be intimidating, but this woven from Tula is sturdy and so well-made – even a wrap beginner (*raises hand*) can get the hang of it pretty quickly.
Grand Dock by DockATot
Perfect for older babies and toddlers who love to snuggle
There is no more coveted item on a new mama’s wish list than a DockATot. We have long loved the DockATot Deluxe for our newborns, but for older babies and small children, we have fallen hard for the DockATot Grand. Made for babies 9-36 months, this cozy cocoon is the ideal sleeping, relaxing, and lounging place. DockATot Grand’s raised, breathable sides, help your child feel snug – almost like you’re laying right beside him or her – providing a feeling of safety that’s unmatched. If you’re making the switch from crib to bed, the DockATot Grand can help ease the transition for your little one, helping him or her feel secure and cozy.
The new prints are simply dreamy (shown here in cararra marble) and perfect for the trendy family who loves baby gear that blends in with their decor. The Grand Dock is washable, breathable, and hypoallergenic, made from only the finest non-toxic materials.
