Personalised New Baby Cards

New baby cards are usually sent in the first few weeks after the birth, once the family is settling in. Sending a card even a little later is still appreciated, especially as life with a newborn can be busy. it also gives you time to personalise the card with a photo of the baby.

Gentle and warm designs tend to suit most situations. Close friends and family often choose something more personal. The personality of the mother and father also is worth keeping in mind - for example if they are sporty, gamers, or anything else - their child often follows in their footsteps! While a simple design works well if you don’t know the parents closely. If you’re unsure, keeping the tone kind and supportive is always a safe choice.

Photos work well if you already have a picture of the baby or a shared memory with the parents. Otherwise, a clean design with a thoughtful message feels just as memorable.

Keep it warm and encouraging. Congratulate the parents and share a positive wish for the family.

A simple congratulations and well wishes works perfectly. New baby cards don’t need to be long or personal to feel thoughtful.
