The short answer is no.
There are several design elements (open balustrades and sharp edged glass art works) which are unsafe for small children and toddlers.
Further, there are several art works which are considered by the trust to be sensitively erotic in their nature, and some parents may find them unsuitable for young children.
Of course children may attend at their parents discretion, though they must be closely supervised at all times.
Babes in arms are also welcome, though we have no access suitable for buggies and prams, therefore we recommend babies and infants be carried on the body where possible.
