The short answerA colleague going on maternity leave usually stops work a few weeks before her due date; the exact timing depends on the country, the employer and her own plans. Two moments, two gifts: when she leaves, a mug with the team photo ($23.00) or a tote bag for the hospital bag ($35.00); when the baby arrives, a frame with the baby's photo (from $55.00). Shipping included.

When she leaves: something to take with her

The tote bag, $35.00: for the hospital bag, with the team photo or a funny line. It will carry nappies (diapers) afterwards.
The mug, $23.00: the team photo, for the night feeds. Dishwasher safe.
The hoodie, $50.00: the thing she will wear most in those weeks.

The right momentOrder two weeks before her last day: printing and delivery take 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere. Her last day often comes sooner than planned, so get ahead.

When the baby arrives: the second gift

When the parents share the baby's photo, the team can follow up with a wooden frame, from $55.00, with the name and date of birth. Or a canvas, $35.00, for the nursery. Ask the parents before printing a photo of their child.

The collection

One person collects the money, places a single order and has it delivered to the office. Split between ten colleagues, a tote bag comes to $3.50 each, a frame to $5.50.

Prices include tax and shipping, no minimum order. Printed to order near the delivery address, 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere.
