How do I get my book box?

Your Community Child Health Nurse can supply you with a reading pack when you visit your local Child Health Clinic with your baby for their eight week health check. You can search for your closest Maternal, Child & Family Health Centre here.

You can also go directly to your local library and ask for a Better Beginnings Baby Book Box for your baby. You can search for your nearest library using our Library Finder.

You can take out a membership for you and your baby.
