What we are

We are a voluntary organisation made up of parents and carers, run by and for the families of Nunawading and district. An elected committee is responsible for running the organisation. To assist in the running of the Library, members are also required to perform minimal duties.

A toy library is a place where parents or carers can go to borrow a large variety of educational toys, puzzles and games on a regular basis. Nunawading Toy Library aims to support families and encourage them to spend time playing with their children.


Quality toys are expensive and children quickly become bored with a toy once its play value has been exhausted. By providing new play materials every week or two, parents can save money and significantly contribute towards the development and education of their children.
