The arrival of a new baby girl is one of the most exciting times in any person’s life. Whether the baby is your own, a friend’s, or a family member’s, you want to give them the best baby gift possible. When it comes to the best baby girl gift ideas, you should choose something that will be useful, but beautiful, and something that will last as long as the baby needs it. Check out this list below for the best gifts for baby girls in the UK, and be inspired for that upcoming baby shower!
1. Baby Bowl Set with Suction
A unique baby girl gift idea
I love the idea of a bowl and spoon set for a baby girl gift because it’s something that will get a lot of use as the baby grows, from when she’s being fed to when she’s beginning to eat by herself. Choose a bowl made of safe and sustainable materials, and especially in bright and beautiful colors! A great detail to make sure you consider is a suction cup feature on the bottom of the bowl, so the baby won’t send it flying unexpectedly.
To keep Baby happy and fed, try these other gift ideas, like a baby food storage set or breastmilk storage bags.
2. Disney Soft Plush Toy For Baby
A special welcome gift for baby girls
Stuffed toys are the perfect standby or last-minute gift idea for babies, especially baby girls! Every baby will grow up with that special stuffed toy, one that will see them through all the amazing moments of growing up. Choose a beautiful, well-made toy with no sharp or hard pieces, and make sure that any items (like bows) are sewn on securely, so it can endure being well-loved for years to come!
A couple of my favorite stuffed animals for baby girls are this darling llama or this adorable dinosaur!
3. Light and Sound Sleep Soother
Ideal newborn baby girl gift
For a baby gift idea that’s both unique and practical, consider a sleep aid that emits soft light and gentle, soothing sounds to help Baby peacefully drift off to sleep. When choosing a sleep aid, make sure that there are several volume and light features, as well as practical features like a velcro tab to hang it on the crib. Mum is sure to thank you for this sweet and considerate gift!

4. Novelty Swaddle Blanket
Funny gift idea for baby girl
Looking for a funny novelty gift idea for the new baby girl? An easy bet is to pick a practical gift in a fun color or print. Swaddling cloths are a perfect choice for a gift that will get lots of use, and they come in lots of fun novelty prints, like this burrito swaddling cloth! Mum will get a laugh every time she uses it, and Baby will feel warm and secure day or night!
My favorite novelty print swaddling cloths are this baby announcement newspaper print and these sushi and taco swaddles!
5. Touch and Feel Board Book
Cute gift idea for newborn baby girls
Babies are constantly learning about the world around them through sight, sound and touch, so any gift that encourages exploration in a safe and fun way will be greatly appreciated! Board books are a great gift idea any time, but choose one that has a variety of textures and colors to help Baby develop her senses!
For newborns, you might want to consider these softer baby books. Or, for another fun sensory gift idea, try these rattle socks.
6. Baby Sling Wrap
New baby girl gift in the UK
Baby slings are a blessing for any busy mum who would like to keep her arms free, especially a comfortable one! But since everyone is different, a one-size-fits-all sling may not be the best choice. Pick out a flexible, stretchy sling that can be positioned in a variety of ways, and make sure it’s in one of Mum’s favorite colors! She’ll love being able to keep Baby safe and secure all throughout the day!
Keep mum stylish with a variety of prints and colors; my favorites are this leopard print sling and this gorgeous floral print.
7. Plush Rattle and Ring Set
Sweet and practical baby girl gift idea
Not sure if Mum has registered for her baby shower? Worried about getting something that she already has? Rattles are the perfect idea when you don’t quite know what else to get, since they’ll always get lots of use no matter what. A rattle and teething ring set will help keep Baby calm and comfortable, and save Mum some headaches in the meantime!
These rabbit rattle and teething rings are a great choice for any baby girl, and I also love this singing giraffe stacking toy!
8. Blanket and Milestone Card Set
Special sentimental newborn baby girl gift
Does Mum love to share her special moments on social media? Here’s a fun and unique gift idea that will be appreciated for years to come! A beautiful baby blanket serves as the perfect backdrop for your milestone photo shoots, complete with cards to mark each special moment in Baby’s new life. And when the baby isn’t posing for her photo shoot, she’ll love nodding off to sleep under a warm and soft blanket!
Instead of a blanket, try these wooden milestone building blocks. Or, keep baby’s milestone moments safe in this first year baby book!
9. Teething Bib Set
Essential gift for new baby girls
Teething can be a real headache, both for Baby and for the parents. You’ll save the day with a teething ring, especially one that the baby can’t lose! Teething bibs are a perfect option because they have built-in teething rings that will be there whenever they’re needed, with a bib there to catch any dribble. Get a set so the baby girl can use them every day, and the parents will be thanking you!
For other unique baby bib options, consider this silicone baby bib or a coverall to keep baby clean and stylish during mealtimes!
10. Arch Rocker Pillow
Unique baby girl gift idea to grow with her
Want to be sure that the gift you give will be used for a very long time? Consider a gift that will serve multiple uses throughout Baby’s life, like an arched rocker pillow. Not only can it be used as a cradle for newborns and a fun rocking environment for toddlers, eventually it can be flipped over and used as a small jungle gym as Baby grows out of it! She’s sure to get so much use out of it, and make lots of fun memories with Mum and Dad too!

A beautiful silver baby bangle like this one will be adored by the parents, and when she’s older, by the baby girl as well!

There’s so much to consider when preparing for a new baby, so you want to give a gift that will get a lot of use. Help deck out the nursery for the new upcoming arrival with a baby cot! The best choice will be versatile and grow with the baby throughout the next few years. Choose a convertible baby cot that will transform into a small bed, and Mum will thank you for years!

14. Disney Baby Bodysuit
Adorable gift for baby girls in the UK
You can’t go wrong with clothing when choosing a gift for a baby shower. Here’s a tip: Mum will receive lots of newborn clothing, but not as much for the later months. Since babies grow out of their clothes quickly, get her a body suit made for months 6-12, so Mum isn’t left scrambling for baby clothes after the first few months!

15. Handmade Teething Necklace
The perfect baby girl gift to send
Looking for an ingenious gift idea for both Mum and Baby? What about a practical and stylish teething necklace? Rather than getting the baby girl a teething toy, get Mum a necklace that will go with just about anything, and she’ll feel put together on outings to the park, while always having a teething toy nearby for Baby. It’s a win all around for everyone!

16. Handmade Baby Girl Booties
Special gifts for baby girls
Baby shoes will always be appreciated, but make them special by choosing booties that are handmade by artisans with sustainable, natural fabrics and materials! A soft leather baby moccasin is a thoughtful gift idea for a baby girl, since it will be comfortable, stylish and will stretch slightly as the baby grows, making it last longer than traditional baby shoes.
My personal favorite handmade baby shoes are these adorable sheepskin booties and these crochet baby boots.
17. Knitted Baby Jumper
Ideal gift for baby girls born in winter
There’s nothing better for Baby than being wrapped up in a warm, soft jumper, safe and warm and secure. If you’re shopping for a gift for a winter baby, consider a knitted jumper to help keep the baby warm even during the coldest winter months. Choose an ensemble complete with a matching hat to keep the baby girl stylish all winter long!
For more warm and cozy winter gift ideas, how about some winter mittens or a baby sleeping bag?
18. Eco-Friendly Reusable Nappies
An ideal baby girl baby shower gift idea
One of the most appreciated baby gifts across the board! Mum will never have enough nappies, so get her reusable ones, and she’ll never run out! Not only are reusable, eco-friendly nappies better for the environment, they’re fun and stylish, and an excellent money saver too! Pick up a few for the new Mum and your gift is sure to be a hit at the baby shower!
