Baby celebration
Host a baby celebration that gives the family time to welcome guests and take breaks.
Start with what the parents want, including the length of the visit, who can attend and whether pictures are welcome. A daytime gathering with a flexible arrival window may fit better than a fixed programme.
Ask for a quiet space, step-free access and practical room for prams. A simple meal or cake can make the gathering easier to run.

Frequently asked questions
How long should we plan for?
Ask the parents what feels manageable. A short visit window lets guests come and go without a long programme.
What about photos and sharing?
Ask the parents before taking or posting pictures, and tell guests how they can respect those preferences.
