About BabyData

BabyData is a UK baby site anchored on baby names and built on official data. We are an independent editorial and information service, operated by Best Business Loans Ltd (company number 16833937), with a named editor, sources cited on every figure, and pregnancy content reviewed by our editorial team against NHS and gov.uk guidance.

What we cover

We follow the journey from trying to conceive through pregnancy to the early years. Our anchor is baby names: the most popular names in the UK and what they mean, built on the ONS Baby names dataset. Around that sit honest tools for the questions parents ask, from due date and ovulation to how many weeks pregnant you are, the age gap between siblings, and statutory maternity pay.

How we work

Every tool shows its working: the exact rule it uses and the official UK source behind it, whether that is the ONS, the NHS or gov.uk. Pregnancy content is informational only, not medical advice, and is reviewed by our editorial team against NHS and gov.uk guidance before publication. We are clear about the limits of any estimate and when to speak to your midwife, GP or NHS 111. We do not sell products or services, and we do not collect your details.

Who runs the site

BabyData is operated by Best Business Loans Ltd, registered at Companies House under number 16833937 and with the Information Commissioner's Office under reference ZC151816.
