Delivering gifts of new books to families over a 15 month period via health practitioners like Plunket nurses. We aim to encourage families to read and develop a strong supportive bond with the newborn child. The health professional enters the home and provides advice and support whilst giving a quality age appropriate book as a no obligation gift.
We have been delivering books since 1997 and have delivered over 27,000 books to families in Greater Auckland. Storytime Foundation is the new name for the Books for Babes Trust with effect 1 December 2009. Storytime Foundation will continue to facilitate moments of magic for high need families by giving quality childrens books to encourage storytime.
