Unique, eco friendly baby gifts made from safe, natural & sustainable materials, that come from Etsy shops or independent business owners.
Those tiny toes, those extra wide eyes, those special happy baby sounds…..I’m always so excited when a new baby arrives in the life of someone I know.
Holding a newborn is one of my favorite things ever! Plus it’s an excuse to go shopping for that perfect baby gift. I always want my gifts to be unique – something that you won’t find on the baby registry at the big retailers or at the mall.
Eco Friendly Baby Gifts
I may receive commissions from purchases made through links in this article. Full Disclosure
So I put together a list of baby gift ideas that are extra-special – they are all either handmade from Etsy shops or produced in small batches from independent business owners, and everything is non-toxic and made from natural or eco-friendly materials. Perfect for a baby shower gift or for the holiday gift giving season!

I love holding babies. They are such miracles. I wish they had the organic changing pad when I had babies.
