Mother's Day

Mothers Day pamper: best gift Ideas for new mums

Mother’s Day is a day where mum gets to expect a red carpet, breakfast in bed and to be waited on hand and feet throughout the day. Well, this is what one would expect when it’s your first mother’s day, but you’ll quickly cotton on that you’ll have to dictate what you want for your special Mothers Day pamper session if there is to be any kind of special treatment as far as first Mother’s Day gifts are concerned!

So, what are some different things to do on Mother’s Day? Motherhood Diaries has come up with an article containing 40 creative Mother’s Day pamper ideas that I suggest you put forward to your partner and little ones, so they can take a hint – or 39.

Table of Contents

1. Book her a hotel room for the night.

One of the great ways to pamper your mum this Mothers Day is to give her the gift of peace. Becoming a mum for the first time is quite the culture shock to your social life, so be prepared for the odd pang of yearning to go out and do something other than stare at the same four walls in the house.

A hotel room for one night where mum can just be a woman and not a baby mother or a wife, does wonders to the mental health. But, if that’s not possible and you can’t separate from the baby, then there are tons of affordable family-centric hotels out there, for example, a 4-star hotel in London that’s affordable, from a considerate and reputable hotel chain such as Dorsett Hotels. Luxury doesn’t always have to come at a premium cost, and a hotel can be family-friendly and fancy all at once.

2. Personalised gifts with her favourite photo uploaded

Photo gifts are great because they can transform everyday objects into something more personalised and special, especially when you add messages on mother’s day that offer a personalised experience. Just choose your favourite picture or design (you could use sublimation designs) of whatever you like, and upload it onto an everyday object, like a mug.

You could create some funky personalised photos and use props related to Mother’s Day to make the Mother’s Day gift more personalised. Consider Googling to find party supplies in your area and use search terms like, ‘mirror photo booth hire in Hertfordshire‘.

Or even have the little ones draw a picture for you and upload, then you’ve got yourself a personalised mug* just for mum. You could pack in mum’s favourite tea or coffee, biscuits, and cakes. Or, for extra man/kiddie points, have your little ones bring her a morning coffee in it – first thing too.

3. Unique gifts made by little hands

Kids' messy hands - first mother's day gifts ideas

If your kids love all things arty (or just love making a beautiful mess) why not look into having them make something for her? It doesn’t have to be anything too difficult as she probably won’t be expecting the next Michael Angelo’s ‘David’, but she’ll appreciate the thought you’ll have all gone to and it’s something she’ll want to keep forever.

Anything with handprints is a good place to start as it’s really easy and you can make loads of pictures out of them. The kids will no doubt love doing it, too. Add happy first mother’s day quotes to make her smile and the kids’ work of art will be golden.

4. Keepsake jewellery

Pampering relaxation ideas for mum this Mothers Day can include jewellery. Jewellery* is always a winner especially as first Mother’s Day gifts goes. Personalised bracelets* are reasonably priced and you can add the initials of your little ones on the bracelet, or a 1st mother’s day message too. Thinking outside the box like this will definitely earn you some brownie points. I love these personalised bracelets of my children’s names made by Handmade by M7* below!

5. Pamper day to herself

If you’re thinking about how to pamper mum on Mother’s Day and you’re coming up with blanks then just give her the chance to pamper herself! She’d probably appreciate nothing more than winding downtime, so for a gift that costs nothing, why don’t the rest of the family be in charge of all the responsibilities for the day? Breakfast in bed, a candlelit bath, a three-course meal and a tidy house will make her day (as well as probably leave her gobsmacked). You could watch Mum’s favourite films all day and eat her favourite snacks. Save her some, though!

6. The gift of sleep

Special ways to pamper your mum this Mothers Day can include the gift of sleep. If children are too young to understand and still wake up in the middle of the night, then try to take over some of the shift work. Then allow her a much-needed lie-in, greeting her with number 33 and number 38 ASAP.

7. Grow her own garden

Grow it Herb Garden from The Gift experience

If she’s green-fingered but never gets the chance to go out in the garden, then get her a ‘Grow your own garden’ box which offers her everything needed in a box to grow her own herbs, like this Grow It Herb Garden from The Gift Experience, which includes the flowerpot, the soil and the seeds to grow from scratch.

8. Personalised pocket mirror

Help mum to look her best all hours of the day with a lovely personalised pocket mirror like this engraved dragonfly mirror from The Gift Experience. You can add lovely 1st mother’s day quotes too to add to the special experience.

9. Fix something around the house

I’m sure there are tons of house chores on the to-do list that haven’t been seen yet, like a leaky tap, a hanging door or chipped paint. Give her a Mother’s Day she won’t forget by fixing something in the house which will help her get on with her daily duties more quickly.

10. A clean house

A clean house will make mum really happy so she doesn’t have to spend her special day cleaning up after you guys. But, keep the house clean from now on – no point in just giving her a clean house for one day then destroying it afterwards!

11. Her favourite takeaway and movie

Mum will probably be tired after a long day. And, perhaps, she hasn’t had the chance to take Mother’s Day off to do something she really likes. So why not feed her a favoured takeaway and movie that she can enjoy in peace? If the movie is child-friendly, invite the whole family to watch and spend some much-needed family time together.

12. Bake her goodies

Mum loves an at home pamper pamper day full of gifts made with love, especially if it’s from her favourite people. Bake her some special goodies, like cookies or even a Mother’s Day cake and put it in a nice gift basket – but clean the kitchen afterwards so you don’t stress her out!

13. Write her a letter

Writing mum a letter on Mother’s Day means she can keep your special letter long after Mother’s Day is over – make it an extra special letter from the heart, with some happy 1st mother’s day quotes inside so mum can take it out and read time and time again when she needs a pick-me-up.

14. A takeaway mug

Little Miss Sunshine takeaway coffee from The Gift Experience

Mum needs liquid help to carry out tasks throughout the day. So, help her out by buying her a takeaway coffee mug like the above Little Miss Sunshine Takeaway Travel Mug from The Gift Experience, so that she can enjoy a much-needed boost when running you guys around in between activities!

Enhance a pampering day with ESPA’s Soothing Herbal Tea Infusion, a perfect complement to the Little Miss Sunshine Takeaway Mug. This tea blends the calming flavours of Honeybush, Rooibos, Rose Petals, and Ashwagandha, offering a sip of relaxation. It’s vegan, caffeine-free, and comes in eco-friendly biodegradable pyramids.

Simply steep for 3 minutes for a peaceful pause in Mum’s day. Paired with the mug, it’s a thoughtful way to encourage relaxation and self-care on Mother’s Day.

15. Make her fancy bath and body gifts for homemade bath pamper sets

Pampering mum self-care gifts for Mothers Day can include home pamper kits with fancy bath goodies that she can sink into after a long days’ work, like bath bombs (here’s a recipe for a bath bomb from Red Ted Art) and/or this lavender and calendula bath soak from Blue Bear Wood which is great for sensitive skin – and even kids too!

Pamper her with lovely beauty products like the Mio Skincare’s Heavenly Body Exfoliating Body Scrub* which can add an extra layer of luxury to the special day. This exfoliating scrub, praised for its ability to smooth and revitalise the skin, embodies the essence of a comforting home spa day for mum. Its blend of natural salt crystals, almond, and coconut oils not only gently exfoliates but also nourishes, leaving the skin soft, hydrated, and glowing. Suitable for use during pregnancy and lactation, it’s a mindful choice for mums at any stage.


For new mum pampering gifts consider incorporating Mio Skincare’s Peachy Cheeks Bum Booster Cream* after a pampering bath. Infused with AHAs and Niacinamide, this marvel of a cream has garnered rave reviews for its efficacy in firming and smoothing the skin. It’s not just about the immediate hydration and softness it imparts; users have noted significant improvements in skin texture and a reduction in the appearance of cellulite within just a few weeks of use.

Its lightweight formula, coupled with a delightful scent, makes it a luxurious addition to any skincare routine.

16. Take her out on a day trip

Maybe mum never gets the chance to go out anymore because she’s stuck working, cleaning and looking after the kids. Find out what’s special on Mother’s Day and take her out for a day she won’t forget. Take lots of photos and videos for a lovely keepsake afterwards.

17. Make her personalised gift cards

Save money on the card by making your own. Mother’s Day cards can be so expensive and they usually just get shoved in a drawer anyway. But, if you make it yourself, with personalised 1st mother’s day messages inside then mum won’t ever throw them away. They’ll be her favourite cards ever.

18. Spend some time together – without gadgets!

Spending time together has been touched upon in other gift ideas, but this should be without gadgets or any other distractions. Spending some time together also doesn’t have to include going out. Perhaps a picnic in the garden (number 20) or a game at home followed by number 11 would afford your mum so much fun on Mother’s Day – a day she won’t forget in a hurry!

19. Spend some time with Mum and get to know her

If mum doesn’t get the chance to spend Mother’s Day doing what she wants, then at least give her the gift of time by getting to know her. Ask her to sit down and have a chat – get to know her by asking what her favourite colour is, what she most enjoys doing on a special day and work on your gift according to her answers. Sometimes mums just need to be heard and acknowledged.

20. Go on a picnic

Just like 18, you don’t need to go out, but a hot picnic prepared by someone else other than mum might be all she needs to have a special Mother’s Day. If the weather is nice, either head out to the garden or go to the nearest park and enjoy a lovely family picnic with mum on Mother’s Day.

21. Wash her car

If mum spends most of her time driving to and from activities, then spend some time washing her car because she will be grateful that she didn’t have to do it herself and she can get on with much-needed pampering activities.

22. Buy her favourite book – and give her time to read it

If mum is a reader but never gets the chance to read, work on number 19, by asking her what her favourite book genre is, and then find out where you can buy a book that she’d enjoy reading. But let her read it in peace. Mother’s Day is all about making mum feel special, so if she needs number 24 and a book – then that’s what she should enjoy.

23. Make her a box of keepsake gifts that pamper

Mums love little keepsakes, especially when they’re made from her darling children. Perhaps have a hunt around for what she has not thrown away and fill up a little box of keepsake gifts to pamper Mum like a cute personalised book for the baby. For example, the ‘Baby, Where Are You?’ personalised lift-the-flap book allows mum to pull out the slot-in card from the cover and write her baby’s name on the card, so her baby can become part of the search-and-find story. It makes for a lovely keepsake! To order from Amazon, click here* or the image below:

Add as many of the gift ideas in this article to the box and Mum will have a lovely keepsake that she can treasure forever.

“Brown paper packages tied up with string, here are a few of your favourite things. Include her favourite chocolate bar, gin in a tin (or similar, hand cream etc…”

24. Set up a spa-like environment and throw in number 15 for the ultimate bath experience

Mothers day pamper gifts must include scented relaxation candles (lavender is good choice for relaxing gifts for mum) (like number 35), which you can dart around the bath, so the main light can be dimmed. Then lay out some towels, and fill up the bath with number 15. Hand her number 22, put some nice relaxation/mindfulness music on and let her enjoy a spa-like experience on Mother’s Day.

Allow her the ability to wash her hair with quality products that leave her feeling fabulous. For Mother’s Day, consider treating her curly hair to Grow Gorgeous’s Curl Defining Leave-In Butter, priced at £25.00 for 200ml. This special hair butter is designed to make curls bouncy, frizz-free, and well-nourished. It’s packed with natural ingredients like Wheat Extract, Camellia Oil, and Cocoa Butter to keep curls looking their best. Plus, it’s vegan-friendly and free from harsh chemicals.

25. Take out a subscription

Maybe mum loves beauty or healthy food, in which case you will Mothers Day pamper ideas in a subscription that keeps on giving. If she likes reading, then find out what her favourite magazine is and take out a subscription. Fun things to do with your mum on mother’s day could be a subscription to an experience day that will put a massive smile on her face. She’ll be grateful for the thought and the time to unwind or simply turn the page of her favourite book/magazine every week/month.

26. Buy her a gift experience

Mothers day pamper packages can include a gift experience, as it will be something different and it will take her mind off her mum duties.

Make it unique and mum won’t forget Mother’s Day in a hurry!

Is your mum a bit of a fashionista who loves keeping up with the trends? Perhaps she needs a little help with a wardrobe refresh? Whatever her wardrobe situation, you can’t go wrong with the gift of a new piece of clothing

28. Buy her a new skincare collection

For a mum who is ageing gracefully, pamper mothers day can include quality skincare. Whether your mum is experiencing skin problems, like dryness or wrinkles, or just needs a pick me-up, there’s a skincare product to suit.

29. Replenish her makeup bag

Same as number 28. A Mothers Day pamper hamper should include her favourite makeup. Find out what her favourite brands are and buy her some more. She’ll appreciate the thought that has gone into getting her something that she will actually use day after day.

30. Get her a gym membership

This present might be a bit controversial, but make it clear you’re only getting her a gym membership because maybe she has talked about going to the gym, but has not had the chance to take out a membership yet. It won’t be because she needs it. No need to make mum feel fat on Mother’s Day!

31. Get her a canvas of her favourite family photo

A personalised canvas is a great way to immortalise her favourite family snaps on the wall. Find out her favourite pics and perhaps make a collage so she will enjoy staring at the memories that fill her with joy time and time again.

32. Tell her you love her constantly

Pamper your mother on mother’s day with lots of love! Sometimes all mum needs is the reassurance that her kids love her. Telling her you love her constantly will fill her with so much joy.

So fill her with the same love as well and let her know it!

33. Give her free cuddles – even when she doesn’t ask for it

Mothers day pampering gifts should come with cuddles. Cuddles fill Mum with so much love and they help her forget about her problems.

Your cuddles will be all she will need to get back on the saddle and keep moving.

34. Give her date night

Perhaps mum hasn’t had a chance to spend time with dad.

35. Make her a homemade candle with her favourite scent

36. Make her a hamper full of her favourite things

Ideas for a Mother’s Day pamper hamper can include just a bigger version of number 23 so you can afford to fit more of mum’s favourite things in there.

You could even add a shirt gift with a funny first mother’s day message on it for that added personalised experience.

37. Make mum her own teabag holders

Add a Mother’s Day message on a napkin to show how much she’s loved.

The Mother’s day quotes for baby mama can be something specific to her, to make it as personalised as possible.

  2. DIY Spa Treatments: Gather ingredients for homemade spa treatments. You can make a simple face mask using natural ingredients like honey, yoghurt, and oatmeal. Prepare a sugar or salt body scrub by mixing it with coconut oil and a few drops of essential oil.
  3. Warm Towels: Soak hand towels in warm water with a bit of essential oil, wring them out, and place them in a slow cooker on low to keep them warm. These can be used to wipe off face masks or just for a warm, soothing compress.
  4. Bath Time Luxury: Draw a bath and add bath salts, bubbles, or a bath bomb. If you have them, scatter flower petals for an extra luxurious touch. Ensure there’s a plush bathrobe and slippers ready for her use afterward.
  5. Spa Stations: Set up different ‘stations’ for her spa day, such as a manicure/pedicure area with a selection of nail polishes, files, and lotions. You could also have a facial station with different masks, serums, and moisturisers.
  6. Refreshment Area: Prepare a small refreshment area with spa-day essentials like cucumber-infused water, herbal teas, and light snacks such as fruit or nuts.
  7. Personal Touches: Write her a sweet note expressing your love, placing it somewhere she’ll find during her spa day. You can also offer to be her personal spa technician, assisting with the application of masks, managing the bath, or simply providing company.
  8. Spa Kit Gift: As a memento, put together a spa kit with mini versions of the products used or crafted during the day, so she can recreate the experience whenever she wishes.
  9. Relaxation Time: Make sure she has uninterrupted time to enjoy her spa day. Take care of any chores that might distract her, allowing her to fully relax and rejuvenate.
