There is not a list that I know of - I do tend to check the Celiac.com messageboards - they tend to deal more with milk and gluten allergens (I cannot tell from your post if you are in the US or abroad, they also have a large worldwide population).
DS1 is fine with pans that have no coating but teflon pans hold proteins. We have his allergens in the house but with caveats - he is inhalent reactive so I never mix wheaty products but can cook them pre-mixed, ie frozen buns or canned biscuits. For baking, I place parchment paper on our pans or use non-stick foil sheets.
Toaster - can you purchase one that is solely for her use? DS1 has one that is just a $10 toaster, it's not fab but great for taking the chill off his bread which has to be refrigerated or frozen to prevent spoilage.
Above all - ask mom who deals with it on a day to day basis, she will probably have preferred and trusted brands (and there is a level of anxiety as an allergic person, so continuity will be key).
