TORONTO, ON - Hudson's Bay is making shopping for the entire family easier than ever. Today, the retailer announced the rollout of innovative showrooms in 26 of its locations, featuring all things baby. Whether buying for showers, preparing for a first child or upgrading nurseries for a 'newest addition'-shoppers can expect to find inspiration through a beautifully curated selection of products, from UppaBaby and Graco strollers to Bugaboo play cribs, growth and development activities from LeapFrog, nursery furniture, decor and more. The experience is made even easier with buy in-store, ship direct-to-home service, so busy parents (and aunts, uncles, grandparents and friends) can leave the heavy lifting to us. The Hudson's Bay kids and baby assortment is also available on thebay.com.

As well, Hudson's Bay is growing its kids' experience to encompass the milestone moments that reflect how kids experience the world-from growth stages, to play, school and more-through exciting new and exclusive brand launches, adding to the country's largest assortment of coveted global and exclusive brands.
