All Things Baby and Beyond

All Things Baby and Beyond is on at John Lewis Milton Keynes on Thursday 12 November, from 17:30 to 19:30. It's a session run by the John Lewis Nursery specialist team, who'll be sharing practical tips on caring for a newborn alongside local experts and guest demonstrators. The whole thing is part of the My John Lewis members-only programme, so you'll need to be a member to book, and members can book additional tickets for guests if you're bringing someone along.

There's a fair bit on the bill. Mini First Aid will be there, and you'll get demonstrations from Water Babies Bucks & Beds, Baby Sensory MK, Shnuggle, White Pineapple Photography and Clarins. Between the specialists and the guest demonstrators, it's a good chance to pick up a few things you might not have thought of when you're just getting your head around everything that comes with a new baby. Beyond the demonstrations, the team will also be signposting parent and baby classes running in the local community, so if you're looking for something to keep you and the little one busy once you're home, that's a useful place to start.

Tickets are £5, and that includes a complimentary drink, a goody bag and entry into a prize draw. The session is held at The Place To Eat on the second floor of the store, and they ask that you arrive at least ten minutes early. The store is in The Centre:mk, Marlborough Gate, Milton Keynes MK9 3EP, so it's easy enough to find if you're already heading into town.
