Because childcare was never just a transaction. Gatherings bring parents, sitters, and the wider village together — mornings, meetups, and moments that matter.
Free or low-cost events across NZ, organised by The Village Co. and the community.
Casual morning meetups for parents and caregivers. Coffee, conversation, and connection with people who get it. Held at local cafes and community spaces across NZ.
Relaxed gatherings for parents with babies and toddlers. A space to talk honestly about early parenthood without the highlight-reel performance.
A chance for sitters to connect with each other and with our team. Share experiences, ask questions, and feel part of something bigger than an app.
We will email you when we are hosting events near you.
The Village Co. was built on the belief that the village was always the answer. Not just a platform. Not just a booking. A real community where parents and sitters know each other, trust each other, and show up for each other.
Gatherings exist because the best thing we can do for families is not just match them with a great sitter. It is build the kind of community where that sitter feels like a natural part of family life.
Meet other parents in your city. Be honest about how hard it is. Find your people.
Connect with the team and other sitters. Feel like more than a name on an app.
The more families and sitters know each other, the better every booking becomes.
"The village was always the answer. We just built the infrastructure for it."
