Times have changed! If you’re traveling with kids, it’s no longer necessary to bring all that baby gear with you. And, with the tight baggage restrictions on airlines, you really can’t bring it with you anymore, anyways. Renting baby gear is the way to go!
Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals launched in 2005 as Canada’s first full service baby equipment rental company. Good idea? You bet. Now there is at least one rental company in every major city in Canada! Wee Travel has offices in Vancouver and Toronto. Check out this video to find out more about the company and the great products they have to rent.

We love the Trunki. You’ll love the Trunki and your kids will most definately love the Trunki. The Trunki is the world’s first ride-on suitcase. Your kids can pack it, sit on and ride it around the airport. Never again will you hear “my feet hurt, carry me”.
Specifically designed for kids 3-6 years old, this suitcase is made from the same durable plastic as adult suitcases. It’s roomy (18″x 7.9″ x 12″) and light, weighing under 4 lbs (sans toys, games and treats). It has an 18 litre capacity and easily stores in the overhead luggage compartment, or under the seat making it ideal hand-luggage for kids.
Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals (Toronto, Vancouver) is pleased to be one of the few Canadian retailers of the Trunki. We carry the all new upgraded version which comes complete with a carry handle, an internal pouch, “teddy-bear” seatbelts and much more.
The Trunki retails for about $70 CDN. Wee Travel will ship anywhere in Canada.

Wee Travel is pleased to announce the opening of our new Travel Store. We search the globe for innovative travel products that make traveling with children safer, easier and less stressful. Here’s five products we think everyone should have for their trip:
CARES Airplane Child Restraint
Why we like it: The only FAA alternative to a car seat allowed on planes. This attaches directly to the back of the airplane seat and augments the regular airplane seatbelt by restraining torso to seat and not just waist.
gogo Kidz Travelmate
Why we like it: If you need to bring a car seat on your trip, you no longer have to worry about how you’re going to carry it through the airport. This marvelous invention allows the your seat (and child) to be wheeled around the airport just as you would wheel a suitcase.
Car Seat Protector Bag
Why we like it: If you plan to send your car seat cargo, this bag has a ton of extra compartments and is water resistant and made from heavy woven nylon. Best of all, if you have a gogo Kidz Travelmate, the car seat protector bag has 2 openings at the bottom for the Travelmate wheels, and an opening at the top for the Travelmate handle, so you can wheel the seat through the airport.
Airplane Seat Covers
Why we like it: If you’re wary about letting your child lie down on the filthy airplane seat, then these disposable seat covers are for you. Just pop them over the headrest and pull them over the seat, and your seat is clean and sanitary. Made from a soft polypropylene, these seat covers can be washed and re-used.
Travel Tattoos
Why we like it: If you have a child that likes to wander, your kids and you will love these child friendly tattoos. The tattoos are customized with your phone number, so you can easily be contacted if you and your child get separated. The tats are easy to remove with the included alcohol wipe, but they will stay on in the bath so one tattoo can last you an entire vacation.

Here’s a interesting idea…if you are going on vacation with a child who has a lust for wandering out of your gaze, you might be interested in a Kid Safe Inc Tattoo. This is a customized temporary tattoo with your cell phone number or contact information that you can apply to your child’s arm. They are child safe and they can easily be removed with an alcohol wipe that’s included. We all know that kid’s love tattoos, and these are so hip you just might want one for yourself!! They come in a variety of styles, but we’ve got a penchant for the classic “mom” tattoo! Buy them from Wee Travel for $20 Cdn for a pack of 24.

The ideal person is outgoing, sales-oriented, has an interest in all things baby, and a passion for cleanliness! We’re looking for someone to grow, and not just take-over our existing Victoria business, so you should be a go-getter. We keep our gear in immaculate condition, so Amelia Bedilia’s need not apply!
This is not a salaried position, but a partnership opportunity. If you or someone you know is interested, we’d love to hear from you. Please call or email Shana. shanac@weetravel.ca; 604-222-4722.

With tight airline baggage restrictions, there is just no way you can pack everything you and your baby need to make your trip enjoyable. Rather than stress about what you CAN’T bring, why not rent the latest baby gear and have it delivered right to your door.
When you rent from Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals, you can rent a full range of brand-name baby equipment and be assured that:
- All products meet Canadian safety standards
- Equipment is monitored for safety recalls and safety inspect between uses
- Equipment is sanitized between uses using anti-bacterial non-toxic fragrance free products.
- Equipment is updated frequently so you can be sure the items you rent will be similar if not better that the items your kids have at home.
- Equipment has been carefully selected and quality tested to meet the unique needs of travelers.
- You’ll get a carseat that fits your child and your car. Car seats, children and cars all come in different sizes, and one brand doesn’t fit all. Wee Travel offers a variety of brands and sizes.
- Our cribs are folding which means they come assembled and don’t need to be put together. Regular cribs aren’t meant to be taken apart and put back together over and over and over again, and there’s a chance that doing so could lessen their safety
So pack light, enjoy the convenience of renting top-of-the-line baby gear and have yourself a wonderful trip.

If you’re traveling with small children to Toronto, Vancouver or Victoria this holiday season, you’ll likely need a carseat. If you’re renting a car you might want to think twice before renting a carseat though a car rental agency. Most car rental agencies charge $10/day with no guarantees on brand, cleanliness, and safety. However, if you rent one through Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals, you’ll pay just $7/day or $35/week, have your choice of brand, and you are guaranteed a carseat that is spotless, sanitized and safety checked. Wee Travel delivers to the airport, hotels, residences, and businesses, so you’ll have a seat waiting for you wherever and whenever you need it.
In Ontario, booster seats are required for children under the age of eight, weighing more than 18 kg but less than 36 kg (40-80 lbs) and who stand less than 145 cm (4 feet 9 inches) tall. In BC, this law is in effect from when a child is 18 kg (40 lbs) to age nine or 145 cm tall (4′9″), whichever comes first.

It’s got looks, form, and function and it’s free of BpA, Phthalate, and PVC. This Fluid No-spill Toddler Cup is perfect for traveling (think no more wet shirts on long plane rides), and its ergonomic handles make it easy for tiny hands to hold. It holds 9 oz of fluid and has an angled tip requiring less head tipping. Best of all, it retails for about $6.
