Mothers Day gift guide

It's all about Mum on Sunday 11th May (or at least, it should be right?). So I thought I'd share some of my favourite small Aussie business' that may serve as some inspiration to help you discover a gift your Mum will love. Or perhaps even something you may like to start dropping hints about for yourself 💓

And as we all know, every Mum is their own special unique human so we've made sure to include something for every superstar woman you may call Mum.

For the Mum on the go

As adults, we’re always focused on what the kids are eating but it’s easy to forget about ourselves. The Ecococoon stainless steel bento lunch box makes it simple to pack a nourishing lunch just for you. Because your Mum's wellbeing matters too, I know rshe'll love the Ecocooon reusable range.

For the Running Mum

Ask a Mum who is clocking up some km's what she needs to get her through her training and the list will no doubt include "more running shoes".

Add to that a personalised footwear fitting at active feet and you will have made her day! I'm always a fan of gift vouchers for these sorts of practical gifts but if you want to give her something to unwrap I couldn't go past these beauties 👇🏽

For the scent loving, serenity-seeking Mum

Aussie-owned and artisan-made, Red Hill Candle Co is all about slowing down and soaking it all in. Their hand-poured soy candles are our go-to gift pick this Mother's Day, especially for the Mum who does everything and deserves a little more “me time”.

As a repeat customer, my favourite scent is their Persion Lime + Lemongrass. One spark and the whole house feels calmer. That’s a win in our books!

For the Active Mum

Naturally, I can't go past the most practical of gifts for any active Mum... a Sports Bra. Bonus points if you book her in for a bra fitting which we all know she probably needs 😉 We're on hand to help her in to a high impact Sports Bra or whatever it is she needs to get her through her next workout.

For the Mum who values a good night's sleep

It-Fits is Australia’s go-to brand for ultra-soft, breathable jersey bed sheets made from 100% Australian cotton. Designed with a clever stretch that hugs your mattress just right, they stay perfectly in place—no slipping, bunching, or constant readjusting. Just a smooth, comfy fit every time.

For the Mum craving a little more calm

Our Mums are always caring for everyone else, but their own rest, health and breathing matter too. The Hush Vaporiser Kit helps purify the air with a cool mist and gentle essential oils, designed to support nasal breathing, deeper sleep and daily moments of calm—every day of the year.

It’s especially powerful during cold and flu season, offering natural relief from congestion and stuffy noses. Safe from newborn to 99+, and beautifully designed with a stylish, removable timber-look cover to suit any space. ✨ Safety Tip: Use tap water only for babies under 3 months. Essential oils are generally safe from 3 months and up.

For the Mum who loves a good time

Got a Mum who loves a wine and a laugh? Gift them a night out at
Pinot & Picasso and let the good times roll...
A Pinot & Picasso e-gift card can be organised in minutes but the memories and your take home art work will last forever.

For the new Mum

Tyhan is a mum founded brand on a mission to make breast pumping simpler and more accessible. Their innovative wearable breast pumps are designed with real-life motherhood in mind offering comfort, hands-free convenience, and reliable performance to support mums wherever they are at home, at work, or on the go.

For the sustainable Mum

For the uber practical and oh-so sustainable Mum Eco Period would make a great gift option. Their range of organic cotton period underwear and planet-friendly care products is a hit with mums and teens alike—because feeling good shouldn't come at the cost of your comfort (or the environment).

Thanks for reading along 🙏🏽 If you share my passion for small Australian business then I'd love you to consider gifting from one of my clever friends this Mother's Day.

And let's not forget that Mother's Day is a great reminder to not only look after those whom have been looking after us, but to take some time for self-care and self reflection 💕
