New baby
The new-baby gift that remembers the big sibling
Every visitor brings something for the baby. The three-year-old standing quietly next to the bassinet gets… nothing. A Lumora story flips that: the big sibling becomes the hero who welcomes the baby home — their own face in every illustration, their new title of Big Brother or Big Sister made official in print. (A gentle welcome story for the baby works beautifully too.)
Why families keep this one
- It makes the big sibling feel seen on the day everyone else is looking at the baby.
- Written fresh for your family — the baby's name, the nursery, the dog who keeps sniffing the crib.
- Gentle, bedtime-paced storytelling with narrated audio — useful at 2am, frankly.
- Instant to make in the hospital-bag chaos; the hardcover keepsake can follow later.
- First story free, so you can try it between feeds.

Visiting a brand-new family?
Send a Lumora gift card — the exhausted parents make the story whenever they surface, and you're the visitor who thought of the big sibling. That gets remembered.

Should the story star the baby or the big sibling?
Both work. For a newborn, a gentle welcome story makes a lovely keepsake. But the move experienced parents swear by is starring the BIG sibling — it turns 'the baby took my spotlight' into 'I'm the hero of the welcome story'.
Can it be a baby-shower gift before the baby arrives?
Yes — a gift card works before the birth, and the story can be made once the baby (and the name!) have arrived. Or make a story for the sibling-to-be about the adventure that's coming.
Is the content gentle enough for this age?
Stories adapt to the age you pick, from age 1 up. Toddler stories use short, soothing, bedtime-paced language — and everything passes layered safety filters tuned for young readers.
Can grandparents far away see it?
Instantly — every story travels as a link or PDF, with optional narrated audio. It's the fastest way to make a grandmother cry happy tears across an ocean.
Layered safety filters tuned for young readers, full preview before you share, and a refund if a story isn't delightful — that's the studio promise.
