Olly & Amelia Murs Welcome Their New Baby: Tips for Parents Bringing Their Newborn Home

Celebrity baby news always makes us smile, and this week Olly and Amelia Murs shared the sweetest announcement — they’ve welcomed their new arrival into the world! Huge congratulations to the new parents as they begin life in the magical (and sometimes a little overwhelming) newborn bubble 🫧✨

If you’re preparing to bring your own little one home, you may be wondering what to expect in those early days. While every family’s journey is unique, here are some tried-and-tested tips to help you settle in and enjoy those first precious moments.

1. Create a Calm Sleep Space🌙

Your baby’s sleep environment makes all the difference. A cosy cot or crib with a firm mattress, breathable bedding, and a gentle night light can help both you and your little one rest easier. Some parents also find that a soothing sleep aid, like the Nuby Penguin Cry Sensor or VTech Soothing Starlight Igloo, helps comfort their baby during the night.

2. Keep Feeding Simple🍼

Feeding doesn’t need to be complicated. The Tommee Tippee Complete Feeding Set is a brilliant choice to take the stress out of shopping around — it includes everything you’ll need, from bottles and teats to a steriliser and warmer, saving you time and effort in those first busy weeks.

3. Make Time for Play and Bonding🧸

Even the tiniest newborns enjoy gentle interaction. Tummy time is an important part of development, and having a safe, comfy space makes it easier. Our 12 Piece EVA Character Mats or a Gymini Playmats are perfect for giving your little one room to stretch and explore, while rattles and sensory toys add extra fun.

4. Accept Help and Take Care of You❤️

Olly and Amelia may have a busy few months ahead, but like all parents, they’ll soon discover that support is invaluable. If friends or family offer a hand, take it. A hot meal or a quick nap while someone cuddles the baby can make all the difference.

5. Capture the Little Things📸

Those early newborn days fly by in a blur. Keep your phone or camera nearby and jot down special memories, from first cuddles to first outings. These small moments will be treasures later on.
