Pushchairs and prams can be taken through the galleries via the lift. Please note there is limited space to leave them at reception and they must be folded.

Baby changing facilities are available on the ground floor.

Baby feeding
Breastfeeding and bottle feeding is welcomed, there is seating available on all floors. If you would like some privacy please speak to a member of staff to check whether a room is available.

The Foundling Museum does not have a café on the premises. However, we do have a deal with various local cafés and restaurants where a discount can be used on food and drink purchases – speak to a member of the reception team. During fine weather picnics can be taken to Brunswick Square opposite the Museum. Families can also visit Coram’s Fields – a 5-minute walk away – where there is a café and space to have a picnic.

Photography and filming is permitted in the Museum for personal use only, but no flash should be used. Should photography or filming be restricted in the case of special exhibitions, this will be signposted.
