Swap - Bloomington baby gear

Calling all families to the Bloomington Baby Gear Swap!

Baby items are expensive, and little ones outgrow them fast. This swap will focus on items intended for babies, ages 0 to 24 months. The event will connect new and expecting parents, or any other caregivers, with the items others have outgrown. All items are given and taken freely and are not for sale. Participants do not have to bring anything to take items home. Please bring only items from the list below

Accepted Items: Must be gently used or like new and intended for babies (0-24 months)

• Wraps and carriers: strollers, swaddles, slings (no car seats)
• Toys: sensory and learning toys, books, bath and pool toys, attachments for strollers and carriers
• Physical play items: activity centers, play yards, walkers, swings, bouncers
• Miscellaneous items: high chairs, booster chairs, diaper bags, other small and gently used items

Please Do Not Bring:

• Car seats
• Clothes
• Large furniture (i.e.: cribs, pack & plays, changing tables)
• Items that babies need to feed
• Large toy and play structures that require assembly
• Stuffed animals
• Toys for children 2 yrs and up

City-hosted swap events are part of the City’s new bulky item management program. The goal of these events is to repurpose items and give them new homes, helping to divert waste from going to landfills and incinerators. Click here for event information.
