Event Overview
Babies & Bumps
From info-packed, expert-led seminars and demonstrations to local resources, shopping, complimentary activities, and giveaways galore… there’s nothing like Babies & Bumps!
We’re thrilled to be partnering with Jamie Grayson – internationally recognized baby gear expert and CPST – at our Indianapolis event, where he’ll host a reimagined, in-person version of his virtual event series, Baby Registry Lab… details below!

Baby Registry Lab with Jamie Grayson
Babies & Bumps Indianapolis will begin with a 60-minute session hosted by Jamie, where he’ll walk “pending parents” through registry products and safety basics in five main baby gear categories – car seats, strollers, carriers, sleep, and high chairs. Immediately following the session, attendees will find Jamie & team at the BRL demo area for questions, photos, and hands-on demonstrations of a wide range of baby gear!

Event Elements

Brands & Backyard Businesses
Exhibitors & Vendors
We curate the events to showcase organizations – from brands and businesses to healthcare providers and non-profits – that cater to new and soon-to-be parents (and have missions aligned with ours). On event day, guests can connect with brands, learn about local resources, shop, sign up for classes, enter giveaways, and more!

Educational Sessions
"How-To" Demonstrations
Hands-on learning is where it's at! These interactive sessions are designed to teach you valuable skills you can take home and put into practice, like baby wearing, picking the perfect breast pump, and child car seat safety. These demos can help you build confidence to handle life with a baby from day one.

Educational Sessions
Seminars & Workshops
There's a lot to learn! So, we partner with experts to provide classroom-style workshops and seminars on a wide range of topics related to pregnancy and parenting. Want real talk about writing a birth plan, the fourth trimester and postpartum recovery, and positive sleep habits? We've got you.

The Experience
Activities & Amenities
New and soon-to-be parents need some TLC to enjoy a busy event day. We get it! We offer creature comforts like a feeding lounge – for peace, quiet, nursing, and pumping – as well as a stroller check and a variety of other perks. Guests can also enjoy any number of activities! From photo booths to chair massages, every event is designed to make your experience fun and memorable.

Icing on the Cake
Giveaways & Giving Back
Thanks to our incredible brand partners, our guests receive welcome gifts, lavish gift bags, and entry into grand prize drawings. (Giveaways vary by ticket type.) It's important to us to give back in meaningful ways. Guests have a chance to win dozens of prizes generously donated by our sponsors, local business and brands in our raffle.

Community & Connection
Babies & Bumps Groups
Connections are powerful. We’ll help you find a community of moms to share much-needed advice, support, and friendship. You’ll share your best stories, swap advice, and celebrate milestones together. Learn more about B&B groups and meet other new and soon-to-be moms so you can create your village and find your parenting groove!
This event puts you touch with professionals you didn’t even know you needed.
