Gifts to Make Working Moms Lives Easier

Now these gift ideas below are specifically meant to help make your working mom’s life so much easier. And don’t worry, I’ll explain how each gift idea can help do this so that you can better understand what goes on in our busy lives.

So here are the best gifts for working moms that will be useful in our everyday lives.

1) Robotic Vacuum

We all know that things have to get cleaned someway, somehow. But when we’ve been working all day long, the last thing we want to do is clean. But thankfully, this robotic vacuum helps take away this task from us by taking care of the floors for us. All we have to do is press a button and relax while our floors get vacuumed clean.

Now that would be a dream present for mom. Take a look at this highly rated robotic vacuum from Amazon here.

2) Amazon Dot

Moms are always running around the house trying to get things done. At the same time, our brains are kinda doing the same thing so we tend to think or remember things at the most random time and normally when our hands are full. Amazon Dot can help by letting us just shout out whatever came to mind so that it can either add it as a reminder or as a note for us to come back to later.

It’s definitely one of those small techy gifts that we would appreciate so much. Take a look at the Amazon Dot here.

3) Keurig Coffee Maker

It is very rare that a working mom can function without coffee. Now thankfully, my fiancé gifted me my Keurig coffee maker a couples years back and has been an amazing kitchen appliance that gets put to good use every morning. As I’m getting ready, the coffee is getting dripped into my travel mug so that it can be ready when it’s time to go.

In the mornings, every minute counts so having my coffee go straight into into mug helps a ton. So take a look and pick your Keurig coffee maker color option here.

4) Crock Pot Slow Cooker

Now a crock pot slow cooker is definitely something that I need to get used to using more often. Why? Because imagine us being able to come home and dinner has already been cooking all day. I’ve done it a few times and it is awesome knowing that dinner is technically already served. This in itself makes it more than just one gift for mom (it’s more like several in one).

So take a look at this awesome crock pot slower cooker set here and help dinner be cooked without mama cooking it (technically).

5) FitBit Versa

I honestly don’t know what I would do without my FitBit Versa. It not only helps me stay productive throughout my work day, but it helps me keep track of my health and sleeping habits as well. I tend to be a workaholic so having an hourly reminder to get up or checking how I slept helps me try to maintain a good balance. This lets me know it can help her too.

Take a look at this super cute rose gold FitBit Versa and other color options here.

6) Tile Mate Key Finder

You know what’s the worst? When you’re running late in the morning of a big presentation and cannot seem to find your keys. This is seriously the worst feeling ever and having a Tile Mate Key Finder in this situation would really help. Running late and getting cranky before work is not a good start to the day.

So spare your working mama some of this trouble and grab this Bluetooth Tile Mate Key Finder here.

7) Brain Dump Journal

Remember how I said that things come to us at the most random times? Yeah it’s true. So instead, I try to push out all of these thoughts and reminders at the beginning of each month to avoid this as much as possible. This digital Brain Dump Journal for Moms helps give us a place to dump out our thoughts. Plus it makes the perfect “extra” gift as it only costs $3.

And because it’s so insanely cheap but valuable, it makes one of the best gifts for working moms. So grab your brain dump journal here.

---

Get her any one of these gifts above and I promise that you’ll be making her life just a little bit easier and every bit counts when we’re a mom.

But I have to admit that sometimes the best gift could also be something that we would use every single day, so those are the types of gifts for working moms we’ll cover next.

Gifts for Working Moms to Use at Work

Have you ever considered getting that special mama something that would be useful for her at her job? Maybe not since you probably have no idea what that would even be, right?

Well don’t worry because as a working mom myself, I have quite a few gift ideas that have either worked great for me or are ones that I personally would have loved to receive.

8) Work Travel Bag

Working in the corporate world sometimes means that traveling is part of the job. So with travel comes the need to pack efficiently and have everything that you need in a travel carry-on work bag. Ideally, these should have some extra pockets, be spacious on the inside and be large enough to fit their work laptop and accessories at minimum.

Take a look at the variety of work travel bags here.

9) Stylish Laptop Backpack

Now I don’t know about your working mama but I like cute and style. So another great gift idea for mom would be to get them a stylish laptop backpack because who said the corporate world has to be boring? And practical doesn’t have to look ugly either.

Take a look for yourself at this super cute and stylish laptop backpack that you know she will love and use daily.

10) Apple AirPods

Okay which mama wouldn’t love some Apple AirPods as a gift idea? Actually I myself am more of an Android girl but know many moms are Apple all the way. These noise cancelling earbuds are perfect especially if working in a noisy cubicle area or if she simply wants to listen to some podcasts while she gets work done.

So check out these Apple AirPods here and give your mama the gift that she really wants this year.

11) Presentation Remote

Does your working mama do lots of presentations? If so, having a presentation remote would make her presentations go by so much easier. This would allow her to click through her presentation from anywhere in the room. No more sitting at her laptop and clicking the space bar or arrows to proceed.

Take a look at this presentation remote here that can help make her presentation go by smoothly each and every time.

12) Work Hard Stay Sweet Agenda and Stainless Steel Tumbler Set

Help her stay organized and motivated with this 18-month colorful agenda with hand-lettered inspirational quotes and stickers designed to help mama achieve her goals. As a matching bonus, the cute insulated-tumbler makes it the perfect pair.

Take a look at the full details to this agenda and tumbler set here.

13) Boss Mom Pens

Sometimes a practical gift can be turned into a really special one just by giving it a little personal touch. So why not give her a set of boss mom pens to remind her how awesome she is. It’s small motivational gesture that could help her push through the daily work chaos

Take a look at these Boss Lady pens here.

14) The Happy Planner

Now someone was recently looking for new planner recommendations in a working mom Facebook group and this Happy Planner seemed to be a hit amongst working mamas and I can see why! It has space for Monthly, Weekly and Daily tasks, along with space that can be used for brain dumping.

The multiple layouts it provides makes it perfect for list and note takers too. And if you’re a visual person, the stickers that come included will help ensure you don’t forget anything again. Check out the different Happy Planner options here.

15) Laptop Lap Desk

I have this laptop lap desk and love it so much because it helps me work from just about anywhere. If I’m tired of sitting at my desk or simply want to go sit on the couch or bed while I work, this lap desk helps me do that. I especially love that this one has a spot for my hand mouse because working from the laptop mouse is not as easy, making this one my favorite lap desk of them all.

And I’m sure your working mama would love this one too so take a closer look at this laptop lap desk for yourself.

16) USB Hub Adapter

Depending on how much stuff your mama has going on, they may need a USB hub adapter. Having one of these helps them connect all the different cables that they may need like their monitors, printer or even keyboard and mouse.

I’ll admit that this is probably one of the least wanted but most needed gifts for a working mom. So take a look at the USB hub adapter and see if it’s something that you could give her as an add-on gift.

17) Portable Charger

Now a portable charger is something that any working mom could use regardless of what type of work they do. There could be a limited amount of outlets or maybe the outlet is a bit too far for her comfort. In my case, it was down under the desk which required me to really duck in there to be able to plug in my phone.

This could also be the case for your mama so having one of these could really save her the hassle. Take a look at all the portable charger color options here.

18) Blue Light Blocking Glasses

Now I’ll have to admit that blue light blocking glasses are not something that I have tried yet however, it is something that I’ve been seeing pop up more frequently. And since I’m pretty much at a computer screen all day long, I am highly considering getting these (or maybe someone will get them for me haha).

So protect the eyes of your loved one and check out this pair blue light blocking glasses here.

19) Keyboard & Mouse Pad

As a working mom who sits at her desk all day long and does lots of hand and finger movements, I have learned the importance of taking care of your desk ergonomics. Having a keyboard and mouse pad is super important to prevent hand issues down the road. So although your special mama may not want one, it still makes a great gift idea when trying to get her something she needs.

Take a look at all the keyboard and mouse pad design options here as I’m sure they’ll be one perfect for her.

20) Stress balls

Did you know that stress balls are more than just stress relieving balls? They actually help strengthen your hands and wrists so is the perfect small gift idea for those who do lots of typing. Plus if she’s working in the corporate world, I’m pretty sure she actually does get stressed throughout the day so these would help relieve some of that tension as well.

Take a look at these stress balls with inspiring quotes here to remind your working mama to remain cool, calm and collected.

---

So there you have it. These are the best gifts for working moms that they can use at the workplace or when working from home. Though I’ll admit that some on this list are more needs than wants. Therefore, I would recommend that if you do choose one gift idea from this category, that you also get her something special from the category below.

I mean it is a special occasion after all and she deserves the full needs and wants package, don’t you think?

LOL so my desk at work is honestly filled with a bunch of different snacks making this SnackSack subscription box an awesome gift for your working mom.
