ALL ABOUT THE BABY BARN

A Lifetime of Experience
The Baby Barn has been the leading Baby Furniture Store in Warwickshire since 1992.
The shop was founded by Sue and Ian when their eldest child, Lottie, was just 9 months old! Now, a grown woman, you will find Lottie in store helping her parents with her little boy, Freddie, taking the role of chief tester! Funny how things come around!
Customer service and fantastic presentation have always been the number one priority and with a team of customer-oriented staff and a wide selection of affordable products, The Baby Barn really is a one-stop-shop for all your needs.
The experienced sales team are committed to helping you find the right products to bring your nursery visions to life. Whether you’re looking for a simple pram accessory, a gift for a friend or you want to totally deck out your nursery and car, The Baby Barn is where you need to be.
