Babywearing Wellington

We're a not-for-profit Wellington-based babywearing group spreading the babywearing love around Wellington.

We’re a non profit Wellington-based babywearing group hoping to spread the babywearing love around the greater Wellington region. We hold a free slingmeet once a month where you can come along to find out about babywearing, get help with choosing and using various carriers, or simply chat with like-minded people. Join us at Trinity Union Church Hall in Newton on the first Friday of every month from 10am – 11:30 am. At a slingmeet, you can also hire carriers from our comprehensive library. This means that you can try-before-you-buy to be sure the carrier suits you and your baby.

🌿 Babywearing Wellington Monthly Meet – Tomorrow! 🌿

Join us tomorrow at 10am at the Johnsonville Community Centre for our monthly Babywearing Wellington meet! 🤱✨

Come along to:

🎒 Hire a carrier to take home and try for a month
🛠 Get help with your own carrier
💬 Share your experience and support others if you’re a seasoned wearer

Join us for our December Babywearing Meet, see what we have in our loan library or get a fit check from our trained consultants (koha QR code available for donations for this service).
We will have a safety briefing and demo of our different carrier types at 10.30am - a great way to see carriers in action that you may not have considered.

We are at the Johnsonville Plunket Rooms, if you are lucky enough to get a park onsite please ensure you leave the nurse parks available.
See you there!

This is our last meet for 2025 and we don't meet in Jan as we use that time to wash and sort our carriers.
