Did you know, it is now a requirement to have a CO 2 detection device on all floors of your home, as well as smoke alarms?TSSA reminds us that it's important to have all of your fuel burning appliances, not just the furnace, inspected and maintained annually to keep your family safe. Remember to check and change the batteries in your fire alarms and CO2 detectors.
Carbon Monoxide is known as the silent killer as it has no taste or smell, so be sure to maintain your units regularly for safety's sake!

Dear Customers,

Babylove has been part of this community for 14 years, still locally owned and operated, and proudly independent - but the struggle is now real for small businesses everywhere.

If we lose locally owned stores, we lose more than shops.
We lose connection, knowledge, and the joy of shopping somewhere that actually knows you.

Shopping local isn’t just about buying things.

It’s about keeping places alive. How sad would it be to see our suburbs empty.

For 14 years Babylove has been bringing you amazing products, caring for mums, celebrating new babies, and sharing advice you don’t get from a checkout page.

Every visit, every single purchase, every recommendation, helps keep local shopping alive.

Thank you for supporting Babylove NZ.

We appreciate you🤍

Turn your parking 'oops' into a child’s smile this holiday season! We are launching a new 'Toys for Tickets' program this year. From December 1 to 15, you can pay your parking ticket with a toy donation instead of cash. All toys must be new and in their original packaging. The value of your donation (before tax) must be equal to or greater than the amount of your Parking Infraction Notice, and you’ll need to bring both your proof of purchase and the notice when you donate. Let’s turn those little slip-ups into big grins for local kids this holiday season. Learn more at porthope.ca/parking-ticket
