Choosing the right pre-school or school is one of the earliest and most significant decisions parents make, yet understanding when to start, what options are available, and how the admissions process works can often feel confusing.
Join The Baby Cot Shop and ESB Consulting on Thursday, 8th October 2026, for an informative evening designed to bring clarity and confidence to this important stage of your family's journey.
Hosted in the welcoming surroundings of our Chelsea boutique, this event will be led by Edward Borton, an experienced education consultant and co-founder of ESB Consulting, who will guide parents through the London school system, explain school and preschool admissions, and demystify the primary school application process. The evening will conclude with an open question and answer session, giving guests the opportunity to ask questions and receive tailored advice in a relaxed, conversational setting.
With places intentionally limited, this is an ideal opportunity for expectant and new parents to gain trusted, practical guidance while connecting with other families preparing for the years ahead.

Every guest will receive a carefully curated goodie bag worth over £100, along with the opportunity to redeem their ticket fee against purchases made in-store at the event.
