Mother’s Day is four weeks away — giving you plenty of time to find a gift of appreciation for the mother in your life! Whether it is your child’s mom, your own mom or an expectant mom — here are recommendations for Mother’s Day gifts to make her feel truly special. 

For the trend-setting moms

Does the mother in life love all things fashionable? How about the mommy-and-me outfits? Hayden LA is the go-to brand for trendy, mommy-and-me outfits that any mother and daughter will adore. Aside from being affordable, the brand is also inclusive with sizes ranging from small to 3XL! We love to the Hayden LA Washed Textured Smock Detail Tank Dress, Hayden Girls Washed Textured Smock Detail Tank Dress, Hayden LA Plaid Patch Pocket Button Down Dress and Hayden Girls Plaid Patch Pocket Button Down Dress

For the accessory-loving moms

Speaking of mommy-and-me, we love those PinkTag Mama + Mini Bracelet. Featuring two beaded bracelets, one for you and one for your mini-me, you’ll always be together even when apart. This is a great gift for any child who may feel sad when leaving mama — the bracelet will remind them that mom is always thinking of them and will see them soon. 

If mom wants a little more bling, check out the options from Brilliant Earth, an ethically sourced jewelry company dedicated to sustainability. Its Script Mama Diamond Pendant Necklace is a luxurious gift to celebrate the incredible moms in your life. The lustrous diamond necklace features the word “mama” written in beautiful script. 

For the shoes-obsessed mom

Introduce your mom to some swanky shoe brands this Mother’s Day. Samuel Hubbard is the go-to comfortable and stylish shoe with podiatrist-approved options! We love the Women’s Sunset Sneaker, Cascade Clog ($175) and Valencia Ankle Boot

Juntos is a luxurious yet eco-conscious footwear that offers slip-on and lace-up shoes that have been created from heel to toe using sustainable materials, such as alpaca fleece in the upper and sock liners, coconut fiber in the insoles, banana tree fibers in the knit linings, and sugarcane in the midsole. We love the Women’s AlpaKnit Lace-Up for moms. 

Forget Hoka, try NORTIV 8 for an affordable and athletic line of shoes for mom. We love the 

newly launched Nimbus running sneakers, which are designed to keep women moving with ease and comfort. They are cute too! 

For the spa-devoted mom

A massage anytime, anywhere is the perfect gift for mom! Gift your mom the StretchPad by Hydragun, which is a heated stretching massager that gently lifts, pulls, pushes, twists, and adjusts the body to release stiffness and tension from neck to hips! With 7 pre-programmed stretching and massage routines available at the push of a button, it’s the most effortless way to decompress after a long day. 

While mom gets a massage, let her indulge in products from ESW Beauty, including the new Pastel Bloom Set. The set features five compostable sheet masks thoughtfully crafted to repair moisture, revitalize, soothe, nourish, and leave you with a radiant glow for the season. 

Top off your mom’s in-home spa experience with products from the locally owned Tubby Todd Bath Co From hand creams to bubble baths to hair and body wash — Tubby Todd has it all for mama and the family. 

Turn your mother’s bedroom into an oasis with bedding (and clothing) from Cariloha, which has products made from viscose bamboo. The material is compared to luxury fabrics like cashmere and silk for ultimate comfort, durability and softness.

Mom will feel like a million dollars with the beauty that is Lambert The Helena. The Helena stands out with its silhouette that is both minimalist and sophisticated. Designed in vegan leather, this bag offers all the practicality without compromising the look. Equipped with a sleeve for laptops up to 16 inches and numerous compartments, the Helena is perfectly suited for work. Turn it into a cross-body bag thanks to the adjustable and removable strap.

If mom loves the functional bags, meet Ayla & Co., makers of everyday-need bags and dream accessories designed with simplicity and style. Initially crafted as a minimal and transitional diaper bag, the brand now has has evolved by expanding its line with a more extensive collection of bags and nifty accessories.

For the kitchen-dotting mom 

If mom loves her fresh juice and cocktails, get the Vinci Hands-Free Citrus Juicer, a countertop appliance of its kind featuring patented pressure-sensitive, rind-thickness detection technology that squeezes fresh juice without a mess in just 10 seconds, and eliminates the bitterness that comes with other juicers which often break the rind. 

What about a great cup of coffee? Mom will get that with the ESPRO, a best-selling product. The device has a double-filter so mom gets a smoother cup without the grit. Best of all, it’s ready in just 4 minutes! 

If mom prefers tea, serve it up in VIVA’s Nicola Porcelain Tea Pot. The contemporary design is beautiful and perfect for brewing loose leaf tea. Plus, the cups come in a set of two so you can share a moment with mom. 

While mom is enjoying her drink, cook up her favorite breakfast menu in American Cookware Kitchen. Pancakes? Eggs?  No problem. They’ll slide right off with the Nonstick Skillet (Starting at $89.99). Who doesn’t love easy-to-use kitchen products?

For the cleanliness-captivated mom

This would be every mom because who doesn’t love a clean house? Even better if you don’t have to do the cleaning yourself! Check out AIRROBO’s latest robot vacuum and mop that offers up to 60 days of hands-free cleaning experience! Yes, 60 days sounds like a dream come true for anyone but especially moms. 

For expectant moms

Let mom-to-be indulge in the exquisite quality of Wildbird products. Their simple, yet beautiful, products are great for any future moms. The brand recently released its new collection of beautifully crafted prints in their aerial carrier, ring sling, jammies and more.

Give mom the Cara Jersey Robe by Simple Wishes, a luxuriously soft, jersey robe that is a feminine essential for daily wear. Featuring convenient pockets and a belt, this is a versatile must-have to pack in your hospital bag and cover up at home with visitors. We also love the Adult Eco Fleece Loungewear set by PAIGELAUREN and the Hydrangea Ribbed Women’s Pajama Set.

Get the ultimate baby essential with the Luna Diaper Bag by ENYA MOND.

Crafted from top-grade premium vegan leather in a rich pebble finish, Luna exudes sophistication. Every detail speaks quality – from the high-grade zippers to the light gold custom-logo hardware. Does mom like backpacks too? Try the Elara Backpack by ENYA MOND.

Finally, here’s one for mom and baby – the Chic Pilates/Yoga Runner Mat by Morris & Co. x Totter + Tumble.
