Organised by the team behind the Parent and Baby Show, the ceremony will take place at Voewood near Holt.

A spokesman said: 'The evening and awards are all about showcasing, highlighting and celebrating Norfolk's finest pregnancy, baby and child businesses and we expect it will be a fabulous evening at such an eccentric and quirky venue.

'The idea behind the awards was to bring together industry businesses and for these businesses to get the recognition they deserve.

'It's an industry which doesn't really get spoken about enough, especially antenatal services and newborn focused businesses, so the awards, and our work with our shows and magazines, are hopefully reaching parents-to-be and parents in the area and showing them what they can get up to with their family.'

The awards will take place on December 3, and tickets are £35 via www.theparentandbabyshow.co.ukThe award finalists are:
