ne of the most special events in a person’s life is the welcoming of a new life. Baby Showers are held in all parts of the world and although there may be variations in its practice, the purpose is the same - to prepare for and celebrate the birth of a new baby. A Baby Shower is a type of party where guests honour the Mummy-to-be and bring gifts for the baby. Usually, the Baby Shower is done before the baby arrives, however in some cases the shower is given a few weeks after the baby is born. That way the shower becomes a welcome party for the baby too. Baby Showers are becoming increasingly popular in the UK with ‘Gender Reveal’ and ‘Couple’ baby showers included! It is often down to close friends and family to organise a Baby Shower on behalf of the Mummy-to-be. The problem then is that the ‘organisers’ spend most of the time before, during and after the shower getting everything prepared and organised leaving little time for them to actually enjoy themselves too. Nappytastic is a fantastic company who believe that having a baby is an extra special gift which should be celebrated and cherished. In hiring Nappytastic to run the Baby Shower for you, they take care of all the planning of the celebration; from invitations through to decorations and even to actually hosting the event to make sure the Mummy-tobe and those who are close to her have a luxurious and wonderful experience.
