Tokyo Urban Baby
  • Are you traveling to Japan with your baby or young children? 🐶 The first time I went out in Tokyo with my baby it was a disaster! I didn’t know where all the baby friendly cafes were, or where to change diapers or feed my baby. It was a complete mystery! ☀️ That’s when I started my blog Tokyo Urban Baby, as I didn’t want any other mums or dads to struggle the same way as I had. I started blogging about all the new baby-friendly locations that I found while out and about with my baby. To my excitement, rapidly parents around the world found my blog and sent me messages! I was so happy that I could help parents to enjoy Japan with their baby:) This lead to Japan TV asking me to be a reporter for NHK World, the Lonely Planet Guide featured Tokyo Urban Baby as the go-to resource for enjoying Japan with a baby, and then in 2015 I launched my Tokyo Guide ebook! 🌸 I am very excited that The Tokyo Guide has now grown to include my new Kyoto Guide! If you are visiting Tokyo and Kyoto with your baby, I guarantee my ebook guides will help you to enjoy these amazing and historical cities with the least stress and the most fun! Click on the link in my bio for the details! www.tokyourbanbaby.com Photo from our wonderful day at Fushimi Inari Shrine 💕 . . . #japan #japanguide #babytravel #travel #traveltips #tokyo #kyoto #toddlertravel #familytravel #tokyoguide #kyotoguide #kimono #kawaii #mommyandme #mompreneur #tokyoolympics #japantravel #visitjapan #visitjapanau #tokyotravel #kyototravel #lovejapan #lifeinjapan #mytinyatlas #beautifullife #japanesekimono #japan🇯🇵
  • The plum blossoms are blooming! I just took this photo today at our local park in Tokyo!!! 💕 I can’t tell you how excited I am. This winter was very cold (as always!) and both my kids got influenza (my daughter had it all last week 😢), so believe me when I say I’m excited for warmer weather and lots of Spring flowers!! ✨ ✨ See the videos of today’s plum blossoms in my stories! ✨ ✨ Do you want to enjoy Japan with your baby and kids? Make sure you get my guides!!! 🌸🌸🌸Click on the link in my bio for the details 💕www.tokyourbanbaby.com . . #tokyoguide #kyotoguide #babytravel #tokyo #kyoto #tokyotravel #tokyowithkids #tokyourbanbaby #lifeinjapan #japantips #guidebook #travelguide #japantour #familytravel #kidstravel #traveljapan #tokyoolympics #olympics2020 #toddlertravel #travel #traveltips #travelblogger #lovejapan #kyototravel #kyotowithkids #visitjapan #visitjapanau #japan

  • Mt Fuji 💕 I received so many emails about my recent stay in Mt Fuji! Thank you everyone! ✨ ✨ I did a lot of research about hotels with views of Mt Fuji before my special birthday trip.

  • Do you want to enjoy Tokyo and Kyoto with your baby and kids with the least stress and the most fun? ✨ ✨ Let me show you how! ✨ ✨ My first outing with my first baby in Tokyo was a complete disaster! I was perched on the edge of a stool in Sega Fredo coffee shop in Naka-Meguro, trying to breastfeed my suddenly crying and hungry baby, and then trying to change the nappy on a small bench next to the sink in the cafe toilet! I felt so alone and lost, I nearly burst into tears. ✨ I didn't want to have the same experience again, so I started to research all the baby-friendly locations in Tokyo (that only the Japanese mums seemed to know about!), and also made many of my own discoveries along the way as I explored the city back streets with my baby and stroller in tow. ✨ ✨ This is when I created Tokyo Urban Baby. I had had such a tough time, that I didn't want any other mums and dads to have the same troubles that I had, so I started to blog about all the new baby-friendly cafes and restaurants, playgrounds and sightseeing spots that I found. ✨ Fast forward 7 years later and I have now published all of the best baby- and child-friendly locations in my new Tokyo and Kyoto ebook guides! ✨ ✨ To make sure YOU don't have the same experience as me and to ensure you enjoy your time in Tokyo and Kyoto with your baby with the least stress and the most fun, make sure you get my guides! ✨ ✨ To celebrate the launch of my new Kyoto Guide (I just launched it in January 2019!) and the upcoming Cherry Blossom Season (super excited!), I am offering a discount off the Full Package! I guarantee it will help you to enjoy Tokyo and Kyoto with the least stress and the most fun!

  • T i p ! Are you coming to Tokyo and want to enjoy this amazing city with your baby and young kids? ✨ There’s only one way to do it - enjoy like a local! I’ve lived in Japan for over 15 years and I can tell you now, I had never struggled so much with finding my way around Tokyo than I did when my first baby was born. It was a complete MYSTERY! I had NO IDEA where all the baby friendly cafes or diaper change tables were or ANYTHING! ✨ ✨ It was only after many disastrous outings with my baby (where can I feed my baby? where can I change my baby’s nappy? where is safe for my baby to crawl around and play in between sightseeing?? And much more!!) that I realized that I couldn’t simply “wing it” like I used to do before I had kids😜 ✨ ✨ So I spent hours and hours every week researching baby-friendly locations in Japanese and explored the city from top to toe. And then FINALLY I started to find all the hidden locations. FINALLY I felt like I could go out in Tokyo and enjoy this amazing city with my baby "like a local". ✨ ✨ This is why I started Tokyo Urban Baby and launched my Tokyo Guide ebook - to share all my finds with other parents in the same situation! ✨ ✨ For all the best child-friendly cafes and restaurants (that you’ll ever find on your own!), as well as secret rooftop gardens, playgrounds, baby nursing rooms and much much more in Tokyo, make sure you get my guide!
