I'm guessing MA, otherwise staying in Cambridge is a hell of a distance to be away from where you're going.
I`m not sure how much is suitable with a baby but they do the Duck Tours in Boston. It`s an amphibious vehicle that is fun to go on. There is an Amish market there too.
The shopping is good in Copley Square.
If you're interested in history, the Freedom Trail is worth walking around.
You can take the baby in her buggy.

Faneuill Hall Marketplace is excellent for food, but probably a bit crowded for baby and buggy.
Definitely the Amish market. I enjoyed the Sam Adams Brewery tour, but that might not be your thing. The Navy Yard is interesting if you're into military history. Maybe the 'Cheer's bar if you were a fan. I absolutely loved the Symphony Hall too.
I just got back from Boston 3 weeks ago. It is a fantastic place, as ladylex says, the Freedom Trail is excellent and buggy friendly except the last bit on the boat. Shopping is easy with a buggy in the Prudential Centre and Macys but probably not great round Newberry Street where all the shops are the road, not in a mall. Boston Common is lovely to walk around. If you have a sitter, there is a restaurant in Cambridge called Oleana which is fantastic, they might be child friendly but I didn't see any in kids in there.

This is not a bad website. Have a lovely time, it's a great place.
Agree with Markrae, even though the USS Constitution would be a no go with a buggy, the museum is excellent and you can get a boat back to Boston Harbour from one of the piers there. Also if you can be bothered to get on a train (it's really easy), a visit to Salem is good, it has the Peabody Museum (excellent) and the Witch Museum (tacky but fun). I'll try to think of more for you.
