Personalised New Baby & Christening Gifts

Personalised new baby gifts are keepsakes for the family to treasure, marking a name, a birth date and those first precious photos. From a christening present to a first Christmas bauble, each piece is made to order in our Sowerby Bridge workshop and checked by a real person before it is made.

Keepsakes, not toys

Our new baby gifts are designed for display and for the grown-ups, not as toys or for baby to handle. That makes them ideal for a shelf in the nursery, a grandparent's mantelpiece or the memory box.

Gifts to mark the arrival

A first photo

Once the family has shared a newborn photo, a photo slate with a caption such as "Isla Rose · 3 May 2026" makes a lovely display piece, with its own stand. The crystal photo block is a classic christening or naming day gift, and the small size arrives in a presentation box.

Baby's first Christmas

A personalised bauble reading "Baby's First Christmas" with the year starts a tradition the family will bring out every December. Pair it with a personalised stocking in the small 12 × 18cm size. Order by 15 December for Christmas delivery.

Gifts for the new parents

New parents are often overlooked once the baby arrives. A photo mug for those night feeds, a photo necklace for a new mum, or a photo keyring for a new dad's car keys all keep the baby close. A roomy tote bag printed with the baby's name is handy for days out.

Christening and naming day gifts

For a christening, naming day or welcome party, focus on the date and full name. Godparents often choose the crystal block or slate because they last. Write out the full name exactly as the parents spell it, and confirm the date before ordering, as we make exactly what you type.

If the baby hasn't arrived yet

You can't personalise with a name before the birth, so many people wait for the announcement and order straight away. Each item is made in 1–3 working days with 2–3 working days for Royal Mail delivery. For gifts for older children, see personalised gifts for kids.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good personalised christening gift?

A crystal photo block or photo slate with the baby’s full name and christening date makes a lasting keepsake.

Are these gifts suitable for babies to play with?

No. Our new baby gifts are keepsakes for display and for parents, not toys, and should be kept out of baby’s reach.

Can I add the date of birth?

Yes. The photo slate caption and crystal block message lines fit a name and date, such as “Isla Rose · 3 May 2026”.

Can I send the gift directly to the new parents?

Yes. Enter their address as the delivery address at checkout. We deliver anywhere in the UK for a flat £4.99.
