BABY’S Day Out will be celebrated in Armidale with a walk along the bike track, followed by a cuppa at Cafe Affamato.
Meet at Curtis Park Playground at 2pm on Saturday 26 October as part of an Australia-wide move to encourage and empower women to feel comfortable and confident getting out with their babies, children, friends and families to enjoy time together in their local communities.
Last year over 40 events were held across the country.
An initiative of the Australian Breastfeeding Association’s Breastfeeding Friendly Communities team, Baby’s Day Out aims to celebrate babies and their place in our world and their right to be fed wherever they are. Details of events across the country are at: www.babysdayout.org

“Gone are the days when a baby is to be hidden away while feeding. Babies are an important part of our community and should be celebrated everyday,” ABA president Rachel Fuller said.
“ABA is dedicated to seeing a greater acceptance and encouragement of breastfeeding, whenever and wherever it takes place. Community perceptions can be influenced by positive images and real life examples. Spring is the perfect time for families to go out together, taking babies and children along to share the fun.”
