Baby Basics was founded in 2009 at the Kings Church in Sheffield.
We launched this scheme in Warwick in March 2021 covering the Warwickshire area.

What’s BB about?
Working in partnership with Baby Basics UK and Castle Hill Baptist Church, Warwick, Baby Basics Warwick’s aim is to help vulnerable groups — such as teenage parents, asylum seekers, those fleeing domestic abuse, trafficking or those generally struggling — by providing them with the everyday essentials they need for their 0-5 year old.
Our Moses baskets provide a safe bed to sleep in (supplied with a NEW mattress) and are packed full of toiletries, nappies, wipes, maternity pads etc. as well as blankets, sheets, towels and baby clothes. For some, these are the only items they have for their child.
We believe that Baby Basics shows GOD’S LOVE IN ACTION
How can I Help, DONATE items OR GIVE Financially?

How do i make a referral?
As a project, we realise much good work is already going on supporting new mums, so we seek to work interdependently with professionals on the ground who are best placed to make referrals (Midwives, Health Visitors and other professional agencies/charities).
We invite referrals from any professional in this field using our online referral form and we will respond within the week. Click here to make a referral.
We DO NOT accept self referrals.
As a midwife it can be hard to see people who are struggling to provide for a new baby. It is so amazing to be able to say to someone in that position that there is an organisation that can help. Baby Basics is a lifeline to parents in need.
