And it’s learning to really listen to and appreciate the many different voices that combine to make our unique sound. It’s fun, challenging in a good way and it’s being part of a creative, collaborative and supportive community.

From the award-winning creator of ‘Bring Your Baby Guided London Walks’, ‘Bring Your Baby Pub Quizzes’ are fun, brain-stimulating daytime parent socials, which take place all over London. In GREAT pubs.  Team size is 6 maximum to make it fair on everyone.  Quizzes take a slower pace than traditional ones. We are parents ourselves, and understand juggling a ‘baby brain’ with baby distractions!  Toddlers are welcome, but are the parent or carer's responsibility. Please bring suitable toys and games to entertain them while you quiz! We take two breaks to feed, change and chat, and questions are always repeated.  Settle in with the picture round from 12pm, with a further five quiz rounds (including general knowledge, music, connection and themed) starting at 12.30pm until 2.30pm. Don’t panic if you’re a bit late - we repeat questions.  A lunch menu including vegan and gluten-free options is available. Baby change is available, including our legendary mobile baby change which means you don't need to leave the quiz to change baby! A number of high chairs are also available.  Prizes for 1st, 2nd & 3rd places include items such as Prosecco, luxury chocolate boxes and beauty boxes. The prizes are for you, not the babies!  Complimentary sweet treats for each table (sealed in packaging).  Important notes: - Children are the responsibility of the parent or guardian, and must be monitored by them at all times. - We understand that the parent or guardian will want to keep sleeping babies close to their table in baby carriers (including, for example: prams, buggies or car seats). However if babies are awake we reserve the right to ask the parent or guardian to move their baby carrier into a designated area of the venue to meet health and safety requirements (such as clear access to fire exits and clear walkways). - 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. - On occasion we take photos or short video clips at our 'Bring Your Baby Pub Quizzes' or 'Bring Your Baby Guided London Walks'. By attending you are giving your permission for these to be used for Bring Your Baby Ltd promotional purposes. Any individual who we have taken a photograph of and published can request that any photographs are removed and deleted at any time.
