Newbie and Me Baby Store Reviews 

Went here to have a scan at the place above, ended up having a nosey around the store and bought our pram! Staff were extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble! Even when I couldn’t figure out how to put the pram down even though they just showed me 🙄

Really helpful staff , nothing was too much trouble for them . Lots of choice as well

Brought icandy umbrella was great thank you

I emailed regarding my pram having issues. I spoke with Aneesha and she was lovely over email, very helpful and I have been issued a replacement pram.

Pram arrived very quickly. Looks great and was the best price we could find out there. Was a bit hesitant at first buying from a store I never heard of, but can only recommend.

My husband and I, both first time parents, had a great experience at the birmingham newbie and me store, during their Silver Cross Event, the whole team were so helpful and friendly. Scott helped guide us through all the silver cross collection, explaining and demonstrating the functionality and features and really spent the time allowing us to ask questions. We are so happy with our purchase of the Cove and would definitely recommend the store for the best range of baby travel systems and great customer service.

Awful experience with this store. Staff giving false promises. Spent thousands of pounds and still nothing to show for it 4 weeks later than promised. Causing us both lots of stress at a time when we really don’t need it. Lie after lie every day and not a single apology. Take your money elsewhere.

UPDATE:
Unbelievably this company ONLY JUST contacted me on Tuesday!!! A full 6 weeks after we originally asked for a callback when our order was already late!!

LET THAT SINK IN

They were fully aware my due date was 10/04/26. I actually went overdue and my baby arrived on 13th April. She is now 11 days old and now they decide to call me to say my next to me crib is ready for collection.

At this point it’s not just poor service it’s beyond ridiculous!!The complete lack of urgency, awareness and basic customer care is shocking. They knew exactly when this baby was due, they knew the items were essential and yet they still failed to act or communicate in any meaningful way.
A call 6 weeks late, after the baby is already here, is not customer service ITS A JOKE!
This just further proves everything I’ve said! Avoid this company at all costs

DO NOT GIVE THIS COMPANY YOUR MONEY. If minus stars were an option, they’d be getting them.

We ordered an 18-piece travel system on 15/10/25 after being clearly pressured into a “today only” deal—which, unsurprisingly, is still running now. A cheap sales tactic to rush people into handing over their money.

We were promised delivery by 25th February, well ahead of my due date (10th April). That date came and went with ZERO communication. Not a message, not a call—nothing. I had to chase them myself, only to be told there was a two-week delay. So unless you chase, they just keep you in the dark.

A week later, I called again—new date given: 9th March. Once again, that date passed with no update. I called on the 10th and was given a “definite” delivery by Friday. Friday comes… and suddenly they “don’t know” where the order is or when it’s arriving.

At this point, I am 36 weeks pregnant. No pram. No car seat. No crib. Thousands of pounds paid. And this company couldn’t care less.

My husband asked for answers and a callback. Of course, no one bothered.

So I went above them and contacted the manufacturer directly. One phone call. That’s all it took. Spoke to them at 3:30pm—items dispatched by 5pm the SAME DAY. Two items still pending, but unlike this company, they actually communicate and follow through.

So let’s be clear: this company took our money in October, did absolutely nothing for months, gave false promises, failed to communicate at every stage, and left a heavily pregnant customer completely stranded. Meanwhile, the manufacturer sorted everything in under two hours.

If I hadn’t stepped in myself, we would STILL be waiting with no answers.

This is beyond poor service—this is incompetence and negligence. They are quick to take your money, quick to pressure you into signing, and completely useless when it comes to actually delivering what you’ve paid for.

And judging by other reviews, this is a recurring issue—not a one-off.

Avoid this company at all costs unless you want stress, lies, and an empty bank account.

Excellent service and communication skills!
Daisy & Laura made the whole experience feel magical!

If you are expecting a baby, please save yourself the stress and go use another company, surely anyone else couldn't be as bad as this one. They like to portray themselves as a family-run and understanding business, but that couldn't be further from the truth. The owner clearly cares nothing for the whole newborn experience; they just care about making money.

We ordered a £1,100 travel system in November. I explicitly told them I had an order ready with another retailer, but their sales team promised us guaranteed delivery before Christmas. Based on that promise, we went with them. This was a lie. Their own staff member later admitted to me on the phone that the original collection date they sold me was "always wrong" and should never have been promised.

Starting a family has been a real challenge for us, and he is our miracle baby. Instead of enjoying the final days of the pregnancy, I spent them incredibly stressed, chasing Newbie & Me. They ignored emails and failed to call back. I had to call them over 20 times in January alone.

Our baby was born at the end of January, and we still had no pram. To cover their incompetence, they gave us a scratched, used "loaner" pram and stand, which was heartbreaking and embarrassing to use for our newborn's first days. Even when the actual order finally started trickling in weeks later, parts like the carrycot stand were still missing. The owner was consulted multiple times about our situation. When I asked if they could just deliver our actual pram and pick up the loaner so I wouldn't have to travel with a newborn, the owner flat-out refused. He insisted I make a 3-hour round trip myself just to fix their mistakes.

Even at the very end, when our only focus should have been our newborn, we realised we hadn't even been given the small accessories that were part of the "Ultimate" bundle we paid for. Shockingly, they hadn't even written "Ultimate" on their copy of the invoice. It was only because my receipt explicitly stated it that I had the proof to show they still owed me these items. I have no doubt they would have argued against giving them to me if I didn't have that paper trail.
When it came to resolving this, I had to chase them with multiple emails and phone calls just to get basic answers. Head Office initially offered a totally insulting £50 compensation. After fighting this, the local manager bumped it to a £100 store voucher. They made it explicitly clear that they do not offer cash compensation, even when they are 100% at fault. Think about that: after completely failing us, their way of making it right is forcing us to spend more money in their store.

The amount of time I spent chasing them to sort out their own mistakes is unacceptable, and their lack of accountability was embarrassing. They may boast good reviews, but please look closely at the negative ones that is where the truth lies. This company shows its true colours when things don't go to plan. They are happy to promise you the world to get your money, but once they have it, their customer service vanishes. Save yourself the stress and avoid them entirely.

Avoid at all cost.!! They are amazing at selling you the item of your dreams but the minute theirs an issue they are none existent. Ive been filled with fake promises & lies to the point I exploded as my baby was left with no pram !! I seen red.. I also did a chargeback with my back. Ameer advised me to cancel this charge back and he will refund me. That didnt happen I am now trying to reopen the case to do another charge back. Ive been told lies after lies from meg & ameer for the last week to get a refund for this broken pram. I candy have been helpful they collected the pram straight away. This shop is a huge scam ! Take your money but dont give you the goods. Please avoid!!! THEY ALSO BLOCK UU ON SOCIAL MEDIA 🤣

As first time parents, we didn't know where to start when buying a pram, but we received excellent support and advice from Lauren at the Birmingham store. Recommendations were tailored to our needs and budget, and every question we asked was answered. Made the whole process so much easier, can't recommend enough!

I often watch Newbie and Me videos on YouTube, they are very informative and offer great reviews on prams and helped me decide which travel stroller to go for. They very kindly offered to price match the one I decided on which was on offer with a competitor. A girl called from the Leeds store, put my order through over the phone, asked when I needed it by, I just said this week, and sure enough it arrived this week. I also received a email confirmation of my order form so I knew everything was correct and as agreed over the phone. Very happy, great service, great price. Thank you 🙏

Ordered a puschair, said next day delivery when checking out, but then checked and that only applies to orders placed by 1pm, no worries I assumed it would then be dispatched the following working day for deliver the next day. How wrong I was. I only ordered from them as they offered next day delivery, wish I checked their reviews first as it seems this is a common issue they have. Why offer next day delivery if you are not going to fulfil this

The only place I could find the Bugaboo Butterfly 2 for a cheaper price as everywhere still seems to have it at full price. It also came with a free carrier!
Received really quickly and as expected. Thank you!

Item came faulty. Took forever to get a returns label as all I want is my money back - to then get the item ‘return to sender’

I want my refund !!!

Bought our Cybex car seat and recently bought the iCandy Pip stroller from here that I’m super excited to receive! Ameena was really helpful and sorted both for us! Highly recommend shopping for all your baby needs from here :)

Very helpful, showed us a range of products and then helped us to decide which would benefit us both for the price range we wanted to pay. Bobby was very helpful. Thank you.

Meg was fab in the Newbie and Me Store in Crewe we visited weeks apart and she could remember us and what we previously were viewing and interested in. She really supported with choosing the right pram and car seat for us and found us the best deal to get everything we wanted! Thankyou Meg!

lovely staff was helpful and didn’t present you bought the joule pram all in one for my son and daughter in laws new arrival ordered in november collected last weekend great services
