Do not buy from here!

Do not buy from here!! Great customer service until they take your money then it’s non existent. Took them weeks to replace a damaged pram with poor communication

We’re really sorry to hear about this experience — we completely understand how upsetting this must have been, especially with items like a pushchair and baby car seat.

Unfortunately, the delivery itself was handled by our third-party courier and this is absolutely not the standard of service we expect from them. Throwing items over a gate is unacceptable, and as you’re aware, we’ve raised this directly with the courier so it can be fully investigated and addressed with the driver involved.

To support you, we sourced and arranged a brand-new replacement, ensuring the issue was resolved in line with our procedures. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, as it helps us continue to push our delivery partners to meet the standards our customers expect.

Scott and the team are super welcoming, knowledgeable and helpful - there was never any pressure to buy and the whole experience shopping at Newbie and Me Baby store today was brilliant. We walked away with the perfect pram for us. Can only recommend highly.

Very Poor Experience!

We had a very poor experience ordering a high-value pram travel system for our newborn from Newbie & Me.

A deposit was paid in October and the balance in full in November. Our order documentation showed the correct delivery address and an expected delivery date in mid-January. As the date approached, we received no tracking information or proactive communication. Despite repeatedly contacting Newbie & Me, we were advised that they had limited visibility and that we would need to wait to be contacted by the brand, even though our contract and payment were with Newbie & Me.

After further chasing, we were informed that delivery to our address had been unsuccessful and that the pram had therefore been delivered to a neighbour. We later discovered that the delivery label used did not match the address shown on our order documentation, and the travel system had been delivered to an incorrect address.

The pram was left outside without any handover or notification and remained there for approximately 8 days before we were able to recover it. We only became aware of this situation after continuing to pursue updates ourselves.

Given that this is a newborn safety item, this was extremely concerning. Promised call-backs from management did not take place, and there was no proactive follow-up once the delivery issue was identified.

The situation was resolved only after we contacted the manufacturer directly, who agreed that a full replacement was appropriate. While we appreciate the manufacturer’s assistance, the lack of ownership, communication, and oversight from Newbie & Me throughout the process fell far below what we would expect for a purchase of this value—particularly for a product intended for a newborn.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I am sorry to hear that your experience with communication and delivery was disappointing.

I can only apologise that the delivery address was wrong however, regarding the fact that you were not notified when it was delivered, this has come directly from the brand as your order was put down for Dropship. This would explain why the tracking information coming directly from ourselves was limited as it is set to be between the customer and the brand.
The address which was on the order form was correct but there must have been a miscommunication for the brand to have not printed it right on the delivery label which we are sorry about.

We are happy you now have your full order and wish you all the best with baby!

DO NOT USE

Whilst the service whilst looking and ordering was ok. The service since has been shocking. My last email received from was completely illiterate and contradicting in advice. I was left chasing for updates with poor responses.
This experience has been frustrating and disappointing, with a complete lack of accountability or customer care. I've wasted time chasing and order for a delivery due February, due to complications the baby has arrived early and they will not budge on delivery, saying signed contract.
Based on my experience I would not recommend using this company and will not be ordering again.

Save yourself the hassle and go to John Lewis

WARNING: long delays and no customer support

Be warned. This online store does not appear to hold stock and operates primarily as a drop-shipping service. If they cannot source your item they will not respond to emails for weeks!

After placing an order, I was later informed that the item could not be supplied. Communication was extremely poor, emails went unanswered for weeks, leaving me with no option but to pursue a refund through my credit card provider.

The lack of transparency and customer service was very frustrating. I would strongly advise others to be cautious before spending money here.

The daysac meet expectations.

The daysac is a perfect size to contain baby changing equipment plus my daughter in laws phone,purse,keys ect,whilst appearing the size of a large handbag.The vegan leather is soft and looks smart.
The reason for 4 stars rather than 5 was
i ordered the Bababing Isla Daypac for our grandson.I did not order in time for Christmas so was expecting the arrival in
early January.The days went by with no
delivery.I eventually rang our closest
Newbie and Me shop (Crewe),who were
really helpful and contacted their customer
services.After this the delivery was swift.
Consider offering more colour choices?

Overall great experience!

I had a great experience with Newbie and Me. Their online customer service was very responsive, friendly, and helpful throughout my order. They answered my questions clearly and made the process easy, even for a first-time customer. The delivery was fast and my order arrived in perfect condition. Overall, very smooth and reliable service. I’ll definitely order from them again!

Car Seat

Ordered a car seat. I didn't realise, at the time that it was a pre-order but when I emailed Newbie & Me I got a reply promptly. 4 days later I was told the car seat was back in stock and I received it the next day.
I was pleased with the communication and service from this company.

Selling items on 'pre-order' as though they are in stock

I purchased a carrycot for my pram with next day delivery. When it hadn't arrived a week later, I contacted Newbie and Me to ask where it was, only to be told it was on pre-order for March. This was in no way communicated to me when I ordered it, the process just appeared to be a normal purchase. I'm very disappointed. I can only conclude that their website was out of date, and was selling goods that don't exist, as the product I purchased is now shown as 'out of stock'.

I had an excellent experience a Newbie and Me !!

I had an excellent experience shopping at Newbie and Me Baby Store Leeds. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful in guiding me through their wide selection of prams, car seats, and nursery furniture. The ordering process was smooth, and my items arrived quickly and well-packaged. I especially appreciated their professional service and the quality of the products. I highly recommend Newbie and Me for any new parent looking for reliable and top-quality baby essentials.

Highly Recommend

I visited the Crewe store to purchase a car seat for my son. The staff were friendly, approachable and extremely attentive. Big shout out to the manager (I think her name was Meg) for her expertise and advise on the best car seat that met all of our needs. She even installed it for us too! Thankyou Newbie and Me for such a positive experience. Would highly recommend.
