Ordering from the UK · delivered in the United States
Send baby gifts to the USA from the United Kingdom
A British card, an American address, one order. We pack the basket in New Jersey or Los Angeles and deliver inside the country, so the recipient pays no duty.
Two addresses, kept apart
The delivery address goes in first, your billing address after, in your own format. Timing, the delivery charge and tax follow the delivery address.
Where you are — the UK
The billing form takes your own format (street address, town and postcode); nothing from it reaches the recipient.
Their address
Everything the driver needs: street and unit, city, state, ZIP, and the recipient's phone in case nobody answers.
The cut-offs in the UK's time
Our New Jersey cut-off, 2 p.m. Eastern, is 7 p.m. BST where you are, mid-way through your day; the western cut-off comes after it. You choose the recipient's delivery date at checkout; the cut-off at the warehouse that serves their address, and the transit time from it, decide the earliest date the checker will offer.
| Where you are | Same-day, only in the same-day areas, when ordered by | Courier, leaves that day when ordered by |
|---|---|---|
| United Kingdom (BST) | 4 p.m. (New York / North Jersey) · 7 p.m. (Los Angeles) | 7 p.m. (New Jersey) · 8:30 p.m. (Los Angeles) |
Same-day runs only where the checker answers local: parts of New York City, North Jersey and the Los Angeles area. Everywhere else is courier, one to three business days in transit in the checker's answers.
Converted for September 25, 2026 (daylight saving on both sides). No deliveries on Thanksgiving, Thu Nov 26; Christmas Day; New Year's Day.
Working out today's cut-offs in your time zone…
When can it arrive?
Enter the recipient's ZIP code — the answer comes from the same delivery service the checkout uses.
Gifts leave our New Jersey or Los Angeles warehouse, whichever serves the address: orders placed by 2 p.m. Eastern in New Jersey or 12:30 p.m. Pacific in Los Angeles go out the same business day. Same-day hand delivery runs only where the checker answers local — in parts of New York City, North Jersey and the Los Angeles area — when the order is in by 11 a.m. in that city's own time. The charge depends on the recipient's ZIP: for most addresses the checker lists ground delivery at no charge, in some western areas (Arizona and Washington State among them) it lists only a paid courier rate, and a same-day charge shows at checkout.
What you pay, and how
Prices in US dollars
Every price on the store is in US dollars; your card issuer converts to pounds sterling at its own rate.
Ways to pay
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club, JCB, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Enter the billing address exactly as your issuer holds it.
Domestic delivery
Because the gift never crosses a border, there is no duty and no customs delay; the recipient pays nothing.
Your statement
One line in pounds sterling: the US-dollar total at your bank's rate, possibly with a foreign-transaction fee your issuer sets.
Characters on the card message
The store runs in English; English is spoken in the UK, and the card message and the address form take the letters you already use.
Your card message
Typed at checkout, accents and all.
Your side of the form
Street address, town and postcode, in the format your card issuer knows.
The American address
Number and street, city, state abbreviation, ZIP code; the ZIP is what the checker needs.
Most-sent, storewide
British senders spread their choices widely (since January 2023), with no clear favourite, so these are the store's most-sent baby gifts, unranked.
Another way in
After you order
Follow the order
Enter the order number or your checkout e-mail on the Order Tracking page; the carrier's details follow once it has been handed over.
Track an orderHelp
Phone (888) 325-0130, or write through the contact page. The earlier you ask, the more of the order can still change.
21+ for a bottle
The drinking age is 21 in every state, so a gift with a bottle goes to someone 21+ and is handed over against photo ID.

Ordering questions: The UK to the USA
Which ways to pay work from abroad?
Yes. The checkout shows Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, Diners Club, JCB, Apple Pay and Google Pay; a card issued abroad works when the billing address is entered exactly as your bank holds it, in your own format. PayPal is not offered.
Is there anything to pay on top of the price?
The price in US dollars, the delivery charge for the recipient's ZIP and that state's sales tax, all shown at checkout. There is no flat rate: for most addresses the checker lists ground delivery at no charge, in some western areas it lists only a paid courier rate, and a same-day charge shows at checkout. Your bank converts the total to pounds sterling. The recipient pays nothing.
Will the recipient be charged?
Nothing. The gift is packed and delivered inside the United States, so there is no customs charge, no duty and no fee at the door.
What is the cut-off in my time zone?
Order by 2 p.m. Eastern in New Jersey or 12:30 p.m. Pacific in Los Angeles (7 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. BST where you are), and the gift goes out that business day, Monday to Friday; courier transit follows, one to three business days in the checker's answers. Same-day hand delivery of eligible gifts is offered only where the checker answers local — parts of New York City, Northern New Jersey and the Los Angeles area — when the order is in by 11 a.m. in that city's own time. For any other ZIP, the checker's date is the earliest available.
Can I order now for next week?
Any later date at checkout; the cut-offs only set the earliest day. The date you choose is the family's date in the United States, not yours — useful when the baby is still due.
Can I add a card message?
Yes. Where available, a gift message is typed at checkout, in English; it cannot change once the order is being prepared.
