Tracking updates can take up to 24 hours to appear after dispatch.

If tracking hasn't updated after this time, Customer Care will investigate if required.

Delivery Instructions / Authority to Leave

Delivery Instructions

Customers may provide delivery instructions during checkout.

While we pass these instructions on to the delivery carrier, they cannot always be guaranteed.

Authority to Leave

Whether a parcel can be left unattended depends on the delivery carrier and the customer's delivery preferences.

If a parcel cannot be safely left, the courier may leave a collection card or arrange another delivery attempt.

If Nobody Is Home

If the customer isn't available when delivery is attempted:

Australia Post: Delivery may be attempted again or redirected to the customer's local Post Office for collection.

Courier Deliveries: The courier may leave a calling card or contact the customer to arrange another delivery.

The exact process depends on the delivery carrier.

PO Box Deliveries

Baby Village can deliver many items to PO Boxes.

Some oversized products and freight deliveries cannot be delivered to a PO Box.

Large & Bulky Items

Large furniture and oversized products are delivered by specialist freight carriers.

Delivery is generally to the customer's front door or ground-floor entrance.

Customers are responsible for moving products inside the property and disposing of packaging.

Split Shipments

Orders containing multiple items are usually dispatched together once all products are available. Customers who would prefer to receive in-stock items sooner can contact Customer Care to request a split shipment. Additional shipping charges may apply.

Delayed Deliveries

Delivery delays can occasionally occur due to:

- Courier delays
- Severe weather
- Public holidays
- Peak trading periods
- Supplier delays affecting dispatch

If an order has not arrived within the expected timeframe, Customer Care should investigate with the delivery carrier where appropriate.

Parcel Marked as Delivered

If tracking shows a parcel as delivered but the customer cannot locate it, they should:

- Check around the property, including any safe places.
- Review the tracking information for delivery notes or photographs.
- Check with other members of the household
- Check with neighbours or the building manager if applicable.
- Contact Customer Care if the parcel still cannot be be located.

Customer Care will investigate with the delivery carrier where required.

Damaged Deliveries

If a parcel arrives with visible damage, customers should:

- Inspect the parcel before accepting delivery where possible.
- Take photographs of the packaging before opening it.
- Check the contents for any damage.
- Contact Customer Care as soon as possible if there is an issue.

All deliveries should be opened and inspected within 14 days of receiving the goods, even if the external packaging appears undamaged. We recommend checking that all items are present and in good condition rather than leaving products unopened until they are needed.

If goods have been damaged in transit, please contact Customer Care within 14 days of delivery and provide photographs of the packaging and damaged item.

Customer Care will work with you to determine the appropriate resolution.

Missing Items

If a customer believes an item is missing from their order, they should first check whether the item has been shipped separately. If the item cannot be located, Customer Care should investigate the order and arrange the appropriate resolution.
