AIBU to be really annoyed that most NYE parties in/around London do not allow toddlers?

I really want a propert NYE party this year and DD is still sleeping during the day so we can put her to bed later in a day and then she'll be able to stay awake until midnight. So I was trying to find some nice place with a NYE party for about £50 per person around SW London which would allow a toddler but could not find any (( all nice places seem to be either too expensive (£100+ per person) or for 18+ only…

I feel so annoyed about it! All I want is to have a good time and celebrate the NYE with my family!

Anyone has any ideas for NYE party near London with toddler? )))

How about one in a hotel with a babysitting service
Then you can see your dc for dinner and put to bed when tired and then party ?

We have a fanatic NYE dinner dance where I live Epsom (SW London border) organised by a team of Italians. The food is amazing, it’s all about families together too and there’s a live band, disco, champagne. Brilliant. Let me know if you are interested.

Can't anything just be for adults any more???

Sometimes in life things have to change and one of those things are NYE/young children, either get grandparents to babysit and go out as a couple, make the best of your own home or another option is MCDonalds, they are family friendly and open till late!

C'est la vie with small kids, i'm afraid.
I'll never understand why parents have to have toddlers wheeled out at every dog fight going.
stay in and do everyone else a favour.

Op where I live they have a little winter festival parade and fireworks with good stands and rides. We are going this year it's on early then we will go home but if you found something like that then went out for a meal would that work for you I'm sure if you chose some where family friendly it would be ok.

But you say you can find expensive parties, but don't want to pay that much? I think you just need to pay £100 pp if what you want exists.

Don't know why you would want to bring your toddler with you . I'm not one of those judgy mums at all but don't bring kids to NYE parties get a sitter or have a family one . DD will be going to bed at 8pm and I will probably miss the new year but hey ho looking forward to not having a hang over .
