By Peaceloveorganicmom
Looking for sustainable and earth friendly gift ideas for a friend or family member's baby shower or new baby? There are several great options for giving the new little bundle of joy something unique and special while also remaining eco-friendly.
1. Create Your Own Natural/Organic Gift BasketCreating a gift basket for the new baby is a great way to give a variety of items that fulfill mom and baby's exact wants/needs. One of my favorite online shops for organic and natural baby items is Abe's Market. They offer a huge selection of unique items that are perfect for gift-giving.
2. Earth Mama Angel Baby Organics Gift SetsThis company creates gift sets packed with natural bodycare items for both mom and baby. Some examples of sets they offer are the Breastfeeding Essentials Bundle and the Birth & Baby Kit.
3. The Honest Company Diaper CakesThe Honest Company now offers their non-toxic and eco-friendly baby products in an adorable diaper cake!

4. Pregnancy or Newborn Portrait SessionA professional maternity or newborn photoshoot is something any new/expectant mom is sure to love. Present her with a gift-card to a local photographer to have these special photos captured.
5. Prenatal or Postnatal Massage
This is an excellent gift for an expectant or new mom to be pampered and unwind while also being different from other gifts she will receive.
6. Organic Grocery Delivery
One of the last things any new mom or dad wants to think about is grocery shopping. Give the new parents a membership to have their groceries delivered to them for the year (through online ordering) or order a box of their favorite organic goodies to be sent to them with The Green Polka Dot Box! Not familiar with The Green Polka Dot Box? Check out my review here.
7. Organic Layette
Hanna Andersson has beautiful and affordable organic layettes for newborn baby girl or boy. All items are made of 100% organic cotton and are certified by the Oeko-Tex Standard.
8. Mommy Chic Teething Jewelry
Chewbeads is a line of "mommy chic, baby safe" jewelry available in a variety of colors and styles. It is a great way for mom to still be able to accessorize and dress up outfits while doubling as a safe and non-toxic teether for baby.
9. Organic CarrierA carrier is one of the best gifts you can give a new mom. Babywearing is convenient for mom and also gives her and baby a special closeness. A couple of the most top rated organic baby carriers are the Ergobaby and the Moby Wrap.
