About this Event
'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.
Walk Starts: Start outside the central library on the High Street (just behind the bus station and between Lidl and NatWest)
Walk Ends: Lloyd Park
Walthamstow means a ‘place where strangers are welcome’. Come and judge for yourself!
Discover all this and more:
- The 15th century house in Walthamstow village centre
- The extraordinary town hall and an art college with some famous students
- The longest street market in Europe
- Why there is a place called Vinegar Alley and how special train fares helped its growth
- Where The Beatles played in Walthamstow
- The local man behind some classy wallpapers
Break halfway at Orford Road with its many cafes, where you will be given an hour to get lunch and use the baby change. St Mary’s Church (across from Orford Road) also has a play area and coffee shop. You will then meet back up with your guide who will tell you exactly where and at what time to meet them.
If on the day of the walk we are forecast to have very bad weather, I may have to postpone the walk. If it's a bit of light rain we will cope!
Every walk follows the usual health and safety guidelines, such as crossing at traffic lights where possible and having hazards pointed out to you at the start and along the route.
There may be times we have to stand in direct sunlight (although I will always choose shade where possible). Please bring all the necessary sun protection for yourself and your child.
It is recommended you bring appropriate drinks and snacks for the duration of the walk, especially if the walk takes place at lunchtime.
I will contact you with booking confirmation after you book. I will supply my mobile number in case of emergencies or in case you are running late. I will also ask you to provide me with a mobile number so you can be contacted for the purposes of the walk, but this is *not for marketing purposes*. Please note that if you are more than a few minutes late I may ask you to catch up with us.
If you like the look of any of my walks, but would prefer to book me privately, please make enquiries at [email protected]. This may particularly be the case if you have people interested who do not have babies.
Important notes about booking:
- Please feel free to invite baby-free friends.
- Children are the responsibility of the parent or guardian, and must be monitored by them at all times.
- Refunds or requests to move to a future event or date must be requested within 24 hours of the event commencing so that we can try to refill the space in adequate time. I also have to honour to pay my guide within this time frame.
- If for any reason Bring Your Baby Ltd are forced to cancel or postpone an event (for example in the case of illness or extreme weather conditions), you are within your rights to request a refund, though we will always suggest an alternative date for you to attend.
- On occasion we take photos or short video clips at our 'Bring Your Baby Pub Quizzes' or 'Bring Your Baby Guided London Walks'.
