Travelling on the Tube can be tricky for mums-to-be, but having a Baby on board badge makes it easier by letting other passengers know that you have a very good reason to need a seat. For tips on travelling when pregnant or with a pushchair, see our page on pregnant women and buggy users.
TfL supplies free of charge one Baby on board badge per person in association with BABYZEN, the official retail partners of the badge. Visit BABYZEN to find out more about their innovative YOYO+ stroller.
Badges can be delivered to any address within the Greater London area, and South East England. Badges can be ordered by completing the online form below or by contacting TfL Customer Services on 0343 222 1234. The issue of replacement badges is discretionary. A maximum of two replacement badges can be ordered over a nine month period to accommodate loss of the original badge. Baby on board badges come in plain envelopes.

I know someone who would be very grateful to receive the free baby on board badge. I will mention it to the person that I know who has been after one of the badges for sometime. sunshinemum many thanks for finding and sharing this with everyone.
Great freebie and comes in handy when on the trains and tubes. Will show my pregnant friend thanks for sharing
Used it but it’s so small it’s hard for people to notice so you still have to ask for a seat
Such a lovely idea for people who are too embarrassed to ask for a seat whilst they are pregnant, thank you for sharing
