Being fairly isolated where we live in terms of close family I am very grateful at every oppurtunity I can where someone is willing just to offer their time, whether it just being adult conversation, a hand with popping into town or just keepin an eye on the kids to have time for a bath or something else we used to take for granted.

this is the best gift of all, to be there for a new parent and offer help and support even if it is just to be on the end of the phone!

Definitely the best gift anyone can give. A hot meal on the table without washing up to worry about. Time for a bath that lasts more than 2 minutes without having to worry about the baby. All these and more were invaluable to me in the first few weeks, and since!

My friend gave me a babysitting voucher when my first ds was born........I smiled sweetly and said thanks......4 weeks later, I realised that this was probably the best present I received!

This is absoutely the perfect gift for any new parents - particularly a breastfeeding mum - the luxury of a bath you don't have to leap out of after 2 mins as baby has woken up. THe perfect thing my sister did for me was agree that once a week she'd take my baby for a walk for an hour or so. it was just one or two hours but it was fantastic...the deal was that i wouldn't spend it on housework or tidying, but on a bath or reading a book or meetinga friend for coffee. I think it may have saved my sanity!
