Walk Starts: Outside St Paul's tube station - exit 2
Walk Ends: Temple
With a stop after about an hour at Leon at Ludgate Circus for refreshment and/or lunch and baby change.
Award-winning 'Bring Your Baby' Guided London Walks are sensitively devised to suit parents and carers of even the tiniest babies to enjoy London’s history. We can stop whenever you like to feed and change - without the stress of feeling you are holding up the group. Because every participant brings their baby, patience and baby’s needs are at the forefront of each walk.
You are welcome to bring friends and family who do not also have a baby.
"Women in the City of London: The West Side Story"
