'Bring Your Baby' Guided London Walks are sensitively devised to suit parents and carers of even the tiniest babies to enjoy London’s history. We can stop whenever you like to feed and change - without the stress of feeling you are holding up the group. Because every participant brings their baby, patience and baby’s needs are at the forefront of each walk.
You are welcome to bring friends and family who do not also have a baby.
This walk is written and guided by City of London guide and co-author of 'Women from Hackney's History' Volumes I & II, Sue Doe.
Please feel free to invite baby-free friends.
