Baby Week Bradford
The annual celebration of babies and all those who care for them, livening up Bradford's Novembers since 2018
Baby Week Bradford is a celebration of babies and toddlers, and a chance to put them – and all the people who care for them – in the spotlight.
Through events, activities and resources, Baby Week Bradford highlights what’s on offer in across the district for expectant families and families with babies and toddlers, develops best practice, gives families the opportunity to celebrate babies at some seriously fun-packed events, and raises awareness about early childhood development and the importance of the first 1001 days.
Baby Week Bradford was born in 2018, following in the footsteps of close neighbours, Baby Week Leeds. It’s part of a growing movement, with numerous locations now taking part across the country from 14-20 November each year. Better Start Bradford has co-ordinated Baby Week Bradford since 2018 on behalf of the district, working closely with public and voluntary sector partners.
