A barn full of baby goods, right next to the A3 at Claygate, with parking close enough that staff can help, advise and try a choice of car seats and buggies in your own car- what a fantastic idea!
For those of you that are planning, expecting or recently blessed with a little bundle of joy, the Baby Barn is a great place to start when stocking up on those essential new baby products, equipment and accessories.
The store was established by mother of four Amanda who lived in the barn itself before turning it into ‘Nippers of Chessington’ in 1994 and 18 years later it has a new name, experienced staff and supplies all the leading manufacturers from Mamas & Papas, iCandy, Phil n Ted, Silvercross, and many more. Amanda’s inspiration came from being frustrated at the lack of ease and availability of products in the market when she was expecting and has been determined ever since to provide a better service for the public. She hopes to make life that little bit easier for you in the highly stressful period that invariable occurs with the birth of a new family member.
Baby Barn stocks a combination of buggies and prams, cots, high chairs and other such nursery furniture, accessories such as baby feeding products and changing bags and a whole host more. You should be able to find anything and everything your new baby may need, with the advantage of having plenty of products that are not stocked in other stores. As it is an independent shop, Baby Barn is always on the look-out for useful new products, and ranges to suit all budgets and rooms. Their furniture products, for example, often come with free delivery and assembly to take the hassle out of your hands and they will always have 10-15 models of cots on display so you get a better idea of sizes and styles.
You can be assured of good service and knowledgeable staff at Baby Barn as they make a point of having specialist product knowledge on the stock they sell, whatever the product. This can be highlighted by the training they have received from top manufacturers on car seats laws and regulations, and the ‘out of hours’ advice service that has proved very popular in the past, especially with information on twins. This services sees an expert staff member open up the shop at a time more convenient for you and you will receive all the advice and help you need in this private opening. Safety and ease of use are top priority at Baby Barn when choosing baby equipment, and working out for instance what size your front door might be when buying a pram, or the weight and whether you will be able to lift it on to public transport or not, so worth dropping them a visit.
On top of all this fantastic service there are also competitions, events and special offers running as well. This Saturday and Sunday (June 1st & 2nd), the barn has reps from top suppliers Joolz, Besafe, Snugglebundl and Aden & Anais present and everyone is welcome for refreshments and a series of great discounts to take advantage of over the weekend. Not only that, but they will be announcing the winner of the Clair de Lune quilt and bumper set competition (worth £50 no less), and all you need to do is like it on Facebook (Link below).
So if you are looking for a top store that will go over and above the call of duty to give you the most up-to-date information and get you the best products on the market, then look no further that the A3 Baby Barn. Your child is your most precious belonging and it is reassuring to know that is exactly how the staff at Baby Barn feel about it too.
