Who are We?

The Healesville Community Toy Library is a non-profit community group that was established about 25 years ago.   We aim to provide an extensive range of age-appropriate quality toys, games and puzzles for members to borrow, for children from birth to early primary school age.  We are self funded through fundraising, council grants, volunteer services, membership fees, donations and levies.

Why join?

Play is the way our children learn about their world and develop to their full potential.  By joining the Toy Library you will be able to have access to a wider range of play experiences for your children and offer them greater stimulation and learning opportunities.  You will also be able to meet other local parents and grandparents while saving money by borrowing rather than buying toys.

We are located in a room behind the Healesville Public Library (Opposite Swinburne TAFE).
