Looking for ways to save money, live more sustainably, and make parenting a little easier? Join us for a relaxed, family-friendly session where you can try out baby carriers, reusable nappies, family bikes, and meet other parents exploring sustainable options.

Babywearing Nelson Try a range of carriers including wraps, slings, meh dais, and buckle carriers. Get free expert advice on comfort and safety, hire a carrier from just $10, or borrow a newborn carrier for three months. You can also bring your own carrier for a fit check.

Reusable Nappies Browse over 50 nappy samples, receive practical advice from experienced parents, and shop affordable preloved nappies, wipes, training pants, and accessories. Starter kits are available, along with exclusive discount codes. Cloth nappies and wipes can save families more than $2,000 per child while reducing waste.

Try a Family Bike Test ride a variety of cargo bikes, trailers, and child seats, and chat with local families about the realities of cycling with kids, pets, and gear. Discover practical alternatives to traffic, parking hassles, and rising fuel costs.

Bring the whole whānau for a cuppa, a snack, and a chat. A welcoming space to learn, share experiences, and connect with other local families.

Access: Follow the path around the left side of the Victory Community Centre main entrance.
