If your order contains more than one item and these are shipped from separate warehouses, the remaining items are likely to be delivered via a separate courier and you will receive separate tracking details. Please refer to each item’s delivery timescale for guidance on the expected delivery date.

If you have only received one tracking number and some items are missing, it is likely the items have been split during transit. The remaining items should be out for delivery within 1 working day of the initial delivery. If you still haven’t received all of your items after this time, please contact us via email at hello@babyandchildstore.com

This is due to the fact that we use couriers to ship the majority of our items. UK couriers charge more for delivery to Non-UK Mainland and Scottish Highlands addresses. We do however understand that the cost can be excessive for smaller items. If therefore you are just ordering an item that can be shipped using Royal Mail, please contact us for a shipping quote and we will instruct our warehouse to ship via Royal Mail.

You have 30 minutes to cancel your order from when it was placed. Please send us an email at hello@babyandchildstore.com with the order number in the subject heading requesting to cancel your order. After this time, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to cancel the order.

*Unfortunately we have had to temporarily suspend shipping outside of the UK after Brexit* For shipping to other countries please contact us with your delivery address details and the item that you wish to purchase.
