How to write new baby messages

A new baby message celebrates the family and welcomes the little one. Keep it warm and joyful, and remember the parents are probably exhausted, so a short message they can read in seconds is perfect. Mentioning the baby by name, if you know it, makes it feel personal.

The best thing you can add is a practical offer: a meal, groceries, an afternoon of babysitting or simply "no need to reply". New parents get a lot of messages and very little sleep. A card that asks nothing of them is a gift in itself.

Questions people ask

What do you write in a new baby card?
Congratulate the parents, welcome the baby, and wish them well. "Congratulations! Welcome to the world, little one. Sending love and a lasagna this week."
What do you write for a coworker's new baby?
"Congratulations on your new arrival from all of us! Enjoy every moment of your leave."
When should I send a new baby card?
Within the first few weeks is ideal, but any time in the first months is welcome.
Is it okay to send a new baby message by text?
Yes. A digital card is quick to send and easy for tired parents to open on their phone.
