Baby life in Wellington — the short version
If you're raising a baby in Wellington, this is the page that keeps up.

Good to know
By the numbers for this age in Wellington: 110 dated listings in the next 60 days; 102 of the 110 listings with a start time begin before noon — this age runs on mornings; the busiest single venue is Te Matapihi ki te Ao Nui Central Library with 24 of them.
On cost: none of these listings carries a free tag in Wellington's feed, so treat prices as check-the-listing — libraries and rec centres often run these at no cost, but the feed doesn't say so and we won't guess.
Rainy-day fallback: most of this age's listings in Wellington run indoors at Brooklyn Library, Cummings Park Library,, Island Bay Library — warm, dry, and built for short attention spans.
