Soft silicone teethers & toys

At Pura, we believe plastic has no place in a baby’s mouth — and that doesn’t just stop at plastic-free baby bottles. Another amazing baby shower gift is silicone teethers! To ensure they’re truly safe and sustainable, choose ones that are 100% plastic-free, made entirely of medical-grade silicone. 

Here’s why we love it: 

• Safety and hygiene: High-quality silicone is non-porous, hypoallergenic, and doesn’t harbor harmful bacteria

• Durable and microplastic-free: Unlike plastic, which can shed microplastics and leach harmful chemicals, medical-grade silicone products won’t break apart in babies mouth

• Temperature control: Parents can pop silicone teethers in the fridge or freezer to soothe their teething baby’s gums, or quickly boil them to sanitize!
  

Organic cloth diapers

Every parent is sure to need diapers! But conventional diapers are not a fun gift, for parents or the planet. Instead, look for beautiful cloth diapers made entirely of organic, natural fibers to ensure only safe materials come into contact with your baby’s skin. They’re beautiful, eco-friendly, and budget friendly too!

Here’s what to look for: 

• All-natural fibers: like cotton or hemp 

• Organic materials: to reduce exposure to harmful chemicals

• Certifications: 

• MADE SAFE® Certified ensures products are third-party tested and proven safe for human health and the environment 

• OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 means fabrics have been tested free of harmful substances

• GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certifies that a textile is truly organic

"Call a friend" coupons

The thing new parents need most is support! So, whether you’re looking to give a low-budget gift or want to add a truly thoughtful touch to any gift, a self-made coupon book offering your help to the parents-to-be is a great way to go. Simply take any small booklet or cards (ideally recycled paper) and write out little messages to offer your support. 

A few meaningful ideas include: 

• One free-nanny for date night

• Girl’s night-in (with baby)

• Home-cooked meal delivery 

• Pick-up and drop-off laundry service

• One “night-shift” so parents can sleep

Whatever you add to the booklet is sure to put a smile on a new parent’s face and become treasured memories they will never forget.

FAQs: 

How do I know if a gift is truly safe, non-toxic, and eco-friendly? 

The truth is, most products aren’t! That’s why it’s so important to look for third-party testing like MADE SAFE certification, to be absolutely sure that it’s not just the brand that says a product is safe, the science says it too!

Are BPA-free plastic baby bottles safe?

No, unfortunately BPA-free does not mean safe. Any BPA-free plastic baby bottles still contain plastics which shed microplastics and leach other harmful chemicals. Learn more here!

Are there other non-toxic baby bottles out there? 

While many other brands may claim to be non-toxic, Pura bottles are the first and only 100% plastic-free baby bottles on the global market. Our bottles are also the only bottles to achieve rigorous MADE SAFE® Certification. 

What if the mom-to-be wants to breastfeed? 

Perfect! Pura non-toxic baby bottles are an excellent companion for breastfeeding on-the-go, during daycare, or whenever mom is away! They are also a great choice to allow partners or other caregivers to participate and further connect with their baby at feeding times.
