Still Wondering What to Get Her for Mother's Day?

Still Wondering What to Get Her for Mother's Day?

Let's be honest. You've been on the florist's website three times this week. You've Googled "Mother's Day gift ideas" twice. You're considering another candle, a bath bomb set, maybe a bottle of wine.

All fine. She'll smile. She'll say thank you. By Wednesday, the candle's on a shelf and the bath bomb is sitting in the bathroom cupboard with the other one from last year.

What if this year, you gave her something that actually changes her week?

Introducing the KOKORO Gift Card

KOKORO Japanese Babysitter is now offering Gift Cards. Choose from $150, $300, $500, or $1,000, or set a custom amount.

Here's how it works. You buy it online via Square. She receives an eGift Card by email, instantly or on a date you choose. She picks from a range of KOKORO's original card designs, and books a babysitter through us when the moment's right.

The basics:

• Set values: $150 / $300 / $500 / $1,000 (custom amount also available)
• A range of original card designs to choose from. Mother's Day, Birthday, Thank You, and more
• No expiration date, she can use it whenever suits her
• Balance carries over, multiple bookings, no need to use it all in one go
• Available across the main Gold Coast areas (more on that below)
• Send to one person, or chip in with friends through a Group Gift Card

The card can be used across all KOKORO services. Postnatal support tends to book out quickly, so we recommend reaching out early if that's the plan.

That's the whole pitch. No wrapping, no shopping mall.

What Each Amount Roughly Covers

To give you a sense of what each amount means in real terms (KOKORO sitting starts from around $50/hour):

$150, about 3 hours of babysitting Enough for her to actually go to the hairdresser without rushing. Or a leisurely lunch with her best friend, dessert included.

$300, about 6 hours A full afternoon to herself. A facial, a long lunch, a wander through the shops. Or, if a work emergency suddenly lands on her plate, the freedom to handle it without panic.

$500, a generous gift, or a full day covered This is the kind of amount that works beautifully as a baby shower gift, a milestone birthday, or a serious thank-you. Plenty for a full-day outing, or several shorter sessions across the year.

$1,000, real postnatal support, or a year of escapes For a new mum, this is genuinely useful. Multiple sessions across her first months, when sleep is short and arms are tired. With no expiration date, she can spread it however she likes.

Note: babysitting rates vary by number of children, time of day, and day of the week. Please check our full rate card on the website for exact pricing.

Bonus: Group Gift Cards

Got a friend whose first baby is due next month? A few of you can chip in together with a Group Gift Card, multiple people contribute, one person receives.

Honestly, a babysitting gift card from a group of friends is one of the most thoughtful baby shower or birthday gifts you can give. It says: "We've all been there. Here's a real break, on us."

A bit different. A bit unforgettable.

Not Just Mother's Day

Mother's Day is the obvious one, but the KOKORO Gift Card works for plenty of other moments:

• Her birthday
• Your anniversary
• A baby shower (especially as a Group Gift Card from friends)
• A newborn gift
• Christmas, for the parent who's been holding it all together
• A thank-you to your mum, sister, or close friend

When you're raising kids, more stuff isn't the answer. More time is.
