Baby on the way = a whole lot of joy (and a tiny bit of “what do we write?”). If you’re signing a group baby shower card from your team, you want wishes that feel warm, work-appropriate, and easy for everyone to co-sign—without sounding generic. This guide gives you short, copy-ready messages, plus simple frameworks so your group card comes together in minutes. In our house style—friendly, practical, and full of examples—you’ll find options for managers, cross-functional partners, remote teams, adoptive and surrogate journeys, gender-neutral babies, twins, and more.
Team-friendly etiquette & tone
When a group is signing, clarity + warmth + inclusivity wins.
- Keep it positive and future-looking. Celebrate the growing family, wish for rest and joy, and cheer for the new chapter.
- Be inclusive. If the parents haven’t shared the baby’s gender or the family path (adoption, surrogate, IVF), choose gender-neutral language and avoid assumptions.
- Mind the “inside jokes.” If this is a company-wide card, lean toward universal humor (no teasing that might confuse extended signers).
- Honor boundaries. Skip unsolicited advice or medical details. Congratulate, encourage, and keep it kind.
- Make it collective. Use “we” when it’s truly from the team, then let individuals add personal notes underneath.

FAQs (quick answers)
What should a team write in a baby shower group card?
Keep it warm, inclusive, and collective. Congratulate the growing family, wish for health/rest/joy, acknowledge their strengths at work, and sign off as a team. Add individual mini-notes underneath.
How do we make a group card feel personal?
Name one thing you appreciate about the parent-to-be (calm under pressure, empathy with customers, great mentorship) and anchor a wish to that quality. Invite teammates to add a memory or inside joke that’s appropriate for a wide audience.
What if we don’t know the baby’s gender or the family path?
Use gender-neutral language and avoid assumptions. Try “your little one,” “your growing family,” and “may this season be gentle and joyful.”
Is humor okay in a work baby shower card?
Yes—keep it kind, inclusive, and HR-friendly. Think puns and everyday parent humor, not anything that could be interpreted as advice or judgment.
What if the family is facing complications?
Offer gentle support without pressure or timelines: “We’re here for anything you need,” “Wishing you strength and steady steps forward.
