Everything you need to know about baby

Calling all expecting parents and parents of young children, the fourth Mums2Be and Baby Day Expo will be held in Limassol on Sunday.

As exhibition organiser, the social networking site Mums in Cyprus said, “the fair aims to support first time mothers and provide new parents with information that will help them prepare for pregnancy, their newborn and the baby’s first year ahead.”

In a relaxed and informal environment visitors can make the most of this unique opportunity to gain up-to-date information on services and products available to them in Cyprus. From birthing to breastfeeding, baby care and development, to health, nutrition, day care, toys and fashion the exhibition will cover a wide range of subjects of interest to any parent.

There will also be a baby and kids’ corner, where the little ones can play while mummies and daddies can browse and get all the information they need.

Most fair exhibitors are working mothers who operate small start-up businesses, making this an event by mums for mums in every way. Supporting the expo’s initiative as main sponsor is Isis Clinic, the island’s leading gynaecology, maternity and fertility centre and a firm supporter of natural birth and breastfeeding.

Speaking about the event’s attempt to raise funds, the organisers said “for the fourth year in a row we decided to keep the free entrance policy, but we would like to continue fundraising for our chosen charitable organisation, the Centre for Preventive Paediatrics. By encouraging each of our expo visitors to donate just €2 we can contribute to the very important pre- and post-natal medical screening programme that the CPP offer free of charge to all pregnant women and newborn babies across Cyprus.”

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
