It really depends on the colleague. But cash is always nice to have(regardless how tacky it may feel) so that they can get what they want/need. Babies grow very quickly and your colleague might be drowning in handmedowns (this goes for toys/clothing/certain accessories).

This is the best answer. Sixty quid in a card is much better than any items to the same value
