First Holiday With Baby
When you are a brand new family, you’ll start to think about your first short break, quick trip or holiday away from home with your baby. We can help you find family friendly destinations and hotels and cruises where they cater for family holidays.
Though a holiday with your baby is great fun and makes for wonderful memories, it can be tricky knowing what to pack. If you’re a first time parent, how do you know what to take with you – and what to leave behind? You don’t need a fully functioning nursery when you get to your destination!
B chooses fantastic family destinations that provide all you need for a relaxing break with your new special little person. Need a baby passport? Find out how to apply.
Toiletries? Check. Technology? Check. Clothes? Check. Packing for yourself may seem quite a chore – after all, none of us wants to take the phone or computer away only to forget the charger. So travelling with a new baby in tow may be an exciting time but you will need to be doubly sure that you have all you need to keep you – and baby – happy.
That’s where these holiday destinations win out. No matter how glorious the infinity pool or how tempting the cocktail menu, running out of your baby’s favourite bubble bath – or worse still, out of your preferred brand of nappies – is a nightmare if you’re away from home. And bedrooms that have inadequate safety facilities for inquisitive crawlers and nosy toddlers are a recipe for disaster, as is a broken cot or dirty highchair.
B has hand picked some of the best baby-friendly destinations for you so that you don’t have to worry about anything except whether the car has enough petrol or where the passports are. From full-service concierge assistance in hotels to beautifully equipped self-catering apartments, we show you how to take a load off.
