Expert Guidance & Real Connections
Built with intention, packed with substance, and focused on what really matters to parents with a baby or one on the way.
Spend the day with us to connect with experts, discover local services and resources, explore must-have gear, and build your village before baby arrives (or while you’re in the thick of early parenthood!). We’ll have a full lineup of pitch-free, expert-led classes and demos, baby gear test drives with Jamie Grayson, CPST, hands-on activities, and plenty of opportunities for connection. There are some amazing perks, too! From VIP gift bags filled with products from brands we love and prizes from our charity raffle, to $10K+ in baby gear giveaways!
Space is limited and gift bags go fast – grab your tickets soon!
This event put me touch with professionals I didn’t even know I needed!

Event Elements
Gear & Safety Education
Jamie Grayson's Baby Registry Lab
Visit with baby gear expert and Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST), Jamie Grayson on the exhibitor floor to ask questions and test drive about 20 different car seats, strollers, baby carriers, and high chairs from top brands. Then, at 3PM, join Jamie for his keynote session, where he’ll walk you through gear categories and safety basics… and give everything away!
Educational Sessions
Expert-Led Classes
On event day, you’ll have access to pitch-free, expert-led classes covering everything from breastfeeding and pain management options for labor to birth planning and baby basics. We organize sessions into three tracks and you can mix and match based on what’s most helpful for you… pregnancy & birth, newborns & new parents, and life with a baby.
Educational Sessions
Skill-Building Demonstrations
Hands-on learning is where it’s at! These interactive sessions are designed to teach a skill that you can take home and put into practice, like newborn care basics, babywearing, safe sleep, and comfort measures in labor… think show-and-tell for grown-ups!
Top Brands & Local Pros
Exhibitors & Vendors
From where to give birth to which car seat to buy, we’ve got you covered! On event day, meet with brands you love – and discover new ones to obsess over – offering high chairs, carriers, strollers, car seats, and more. And connect with local experts who can help with everything from postpartum care, babywearing, and ultrasounds to pediatrics, lactation support, and child care. Ask questions, shop, sign up for classes, and find support you didn’t even know you needed.
The Experience
Activities & Amenities
We chose a venue with FREE and plentiful parking, and we have a lounge for moms to have peace and privacy while nursing, pumping, and feeding. Food and beverages are available for purchase at the hotel, there are plenty of places to grab a quick bite nearby. Don’t forget to strike a pose for a baby & bump photo and try out baby wraps and carriers!
Icing on the Cake
Giveaways & Giving Back
Attendees have a chance to win dozens of prizes and 100% of proceeds from raffle ticket sales will be donated to a local non-profit! Our lavish gift bags for VIP attendees are packed with products from brands we love! Plus, we’ll have a grand prize drawing, prizes from our charity raffle, and $10K worth of strollers, baby carriers, and high chairs in Jamie Grayson’s keynote session!
Enriching! Entertaining! And educating! This event is so worth it... don't miss out!

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Head to our Eventbrite ticketing page! Tickets are limited and we usually sell out, so don’t wait!
-
Expos are great for a quick browse! But Babies & Bumps is designed for more learning and deeper connections. Our events are intimate and built from the ground up in each city, packed with trusted local event partners and top brands who are there to support, inform, and empower you. With expert-led classes, skill-building demonstrations, and baby gear expert Jamie Grayson, this is your chance to connect, learn, and walk away truly ready for what’s ahead!
-
You bet! Babies & Bumps is for anyone who’s pregnant or has a baby 0-12 months. And yes, of course, dads and partners are always encouraged to join! We also see many grandparents, sisters, friends, etc., who come to support the new and soon-to-be parents in their lives.
-
You can absolutely bring your baby if they’re in your arms or a carrier – we see lots of babies at our events! Unfortunately, the venue can’t accommodate strollers, but of course, if you have a special circumstance, like a disability or medical condition, or if you’re pregnant and are also bringing a baby, just let us know when you check in. There’s a private room for nursing, pumping, feeding, or just taking a breather if you and your baby need one! While the lounge provides a comfy place for parents and babies, please note that our entire venue is breastfeeding-friendly. This event is meant for adults and babies only, so please plan to leave older children with a caregiver, if possible. We won’t turn you away, of course! But we want to make sure you can get as much out of the event as possible, and the educational format can be difficult for young children.
-
No, Babies & Bumps is designed to be an in-person experience, where you can learn directly from local pros, ask questions in real time, and connect with others on a similar journey. Also, a lot of the material shared in our classes and demos are offered by our speakers in paid workshops and courses outside of B&B, so they’re shared with our attendees exclusively on event day to protect their intellectual property. There are a lot of sessions! Once available, we encourage you to download our schedule and map out your day, so you make it to everything on your “don’t miss” list.
-
We carefully select venues that accommodate wheelchairs and other assistive devices, so all are welcome and comfortable. If you have additional questions or need assistance, please reach out to us at hello@babies-and-bumps.com so we can offer more information or support.
-
We love to partner with organizations that share our values and empower parents to make the best decisions for their families through education, resources, and practical demonstrations. We’re also always open to collaborations, giving back, and creatively solving problems for the parents we serve. Fill out this form to tell us about yourself and we’ll be in touch ASAP. If you have already worked with us at a previous event, please do NOT fill out the form. Instead, reach out to us at hello@babies-and-bumps.com.
