The launch is part of the retailer’s aim to extend its childcare range to newborns and very young children.
The first standalone format is aimed at newborns to 24 months. It will be launched in six major stores and on www.marksandspencer.com.
The range has been built around seven key parts of a baby’s needs: bathe, sleep, feed, newborn, maternity, play and clothing. It will sell items such as high chairs and travel bags.
M&S Baby brand launch follows the success of M&S’s first-ever baby food range, Tiny Tastebuds, in April.
