Every baby wardrobe needs its workhorses. Enter Petit Bateau, where a classic is made a classic for good reason. Gifting Petit Bateau is a sure bet, that is why we love including their products in our luxury baby gift baskets. Know what else is a sure choice? Matching one classy item with another. Build your own basket (BYOB) by adding a picture book like Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter or Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise.

Maternity leave in the time of Covid-19
Some words of encouragement to new moms in these unusual times: In the Chinese tradition, once a woman has given birth she enters “sitting the month”, zuo yue zi, where she stays indoors — visitor free — to focus on healing and caring for her newborn.The basic gist of this protocol is to protect mom and baby from pathogens and stress, while boosting their recovery and immunity. And so here we are today, all of us, sitting-in with no visitors. We are an odd mix of anxiety, stress, loneliness, boredom, hilarity, community, kindness, and togetherness.

Designer Feature: Laranjinha from Portugal with Love
Laranjinha is known for their traditional design and overall elegance with a rotation of pastels for subtle seasonal changes. This spring - in a sidestep - the designers incorporated Liberty of London’s riotous bursts of flower printed cotton. But of course, in keeping with their classic aesthetic the flower power prints are used for details such as a shoulder frill here, a little side tie there.

Mamas For Mamas - Partnership with Bonjour Baby Baskets

Every year we pick a charity to support, where we feel that our donation can make an impact.  This year we are thrilled to support Mamas For Mamas — a national charitable organization that supports mothers in crisis.

A happy mama makes a happy baby. Parenting certainly has its struggles but when basic needs can not be met, those struggles are tenfold. An organization like this is needed everywhere to help young families in need find surer footing into a safer, happier, future. We support their mission and work wholeheartedly, and are glad to have Bonjour Baby Baskets' mamas join their wider family of mamas on a mission.

Getting to Know You (us)
We’ve collected the most common questions we’ve received from our company history to style preferences so you can get to know us a little better. 
Twenty-something years ago I made the best decision of my life by moving to Canada. It wasn't easy. I was alone with 3 young kids but we managed with positive thoughts and lots of love.  I consider myself fortunate to live in this country, especially Toronto, where opportunities abound and people from many parts of the world call themselves neighbours. I am thankful to live in a place where my kids grew surrounded by tolerance and acceptance.

Reflections on Motherhood from a Grandmother
Now that I am a grandmother -twice over- I relate to motherhood differently. When your baby is born you think: I will never love another creature so intensely.  If you are blessed with more children, you learn that the heart grows and expands for there is always room for more love. Then your children give you grandchildren and your heart stretches even more, and never in your wildest dreams did you imagine how much love, in all its iterations, was possible.
