We want to celebrate all the cute new additions to our Mansfield community by sharing photos of new lockdown babies.
These babies were born between March 2020 and February 2021.
Click through this article to take a look at their adorable little faces.
In these confusing and worrying times, local journalism is more vital than ever. Thanks to everyone who helps us ask the questions that matter by taking out a subscription or buying a paper. We stand together. Nancy Fielder, editor.
