A note on services

The most-used gift: a service certificate.

The most-given baby-shower gift through this format isn't a thing — it's a service that the new parents will use in the first eight weeks. A month of housekeeping, a meal-delivery subscription, a postpartum doula visit, professional newborn photography, a lactation consultant session.

These are the gifts that don't fit on a registry but matter most in the first weeks. The certificate names the service and your contribution: 'One month of [service] cleaning' or 'Three meals delivered the first week home.' Pair the certificate with a real gift card or a confirmed booking from the actual provider.

Gender-neutral options matter for surprise-gender showers and co-ed showers. The Blue Simple and Yellow Custom both read neutral; the Pink Frame and Blue Frame are color-coded if the parents have shared.

Baby shower questions

Frequently asked questions.

What's a typical baby shower gift certificate amount?
For coworkers, friends, and distant family, $30-$75. For close friends and family, $50-$150. For grandparents-to-be or wedding-party-level closeness, $100-$300+. For service certificates the amount usually matches the service's actual cost — one month of cleaning, six prepared meals, a doula visit.
Are the templates gender-neutral?
Two of the four are: Blue Simple and Yellow Custom both work for any shower. Pink Frame and Blue Frame are color-coded if the parents have shared the baby's gender or want a traditional look. None of the designs include explicit boy/girl iconography — they're all subtle.
What service-based gifts work well as a certificate?
Housekeeping, meal delivery, postpartum doula visits, newborn photography, lactation consultant sessions, lawn care, dog walking, and grocery delivery are the most-used. Pair the certificate with a real gift card or confirmed booking from the actual provider.
Can these be used for a sprinkle (second baby) shower?
Yes — and they're often more practical for sprinkles than registry items, since the parents already have most of the baby gear. Service-based gifts (cleaning, meal delivery, a date night for the parents) are especially appropriate for sprinkles.
How do I personalize the certificate to match the shower theme?
Type the theme name on the certificate line ('For Baby Smith,' 'Welcome to the Jones tribe'), and choose a design that matches the shower's color scheme. Print on heavy card stock and tuck inside the shower card.
