How Baby-Friendly is Koala Park Sanctuary Sydney?

Babies enter free, pram-friendly loops and change tables aid carers, yet there is no private nursing room and koala talks become crowded, so quiet feeding spots are only outdoor benches.

Considerations for visiting Koala Park Sanctuary Sydney (with baby)

Positives:

  • Free baby entry: Children under 4 enter free—no ticket needed for your baby.
  • Baby-changing facilities: Clean change tables and sinks are in each toilet block across the park.

Challenges:

  • Limited show seating: Koala and reptile presentations fill up fast; space for strollers is tight.
  • No private nursing room: Breastfeed at picnic tables or benches in open areas around the park.

Recommended visit duration: 2-3 hours

Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for with baby: Allows time for presentations, feeding sessions and breaks with the baby without rushing.

Nestled in a peaceful, leafy setting just a short drive from Sydney city, the sanctuary provides a natural and family-friendly environment where animals are lovingly cared for and guests are warmly welcomed. The Koal...

Much better than expected, great value. They have a good range of animals and several places you can pet the animals at no extra cost. Informative keeper talks and you can get up close to almost all the animals. The one star lost is that this place is not disability friendly. The pavement is old and uneven so wheelchairs and anyone unsteady on their feet may have a hard time getting around. T...

A lovely small wildlife sanctuary. We were surprised at how much there was, and it was a really nice trip out for the afternoon. It was so incredible to get up close to the kangaroos, they were all so gentle and friendly. The sheep and goats are a lot more rowdy (they ate our entire bag of food and covered us in mud) but that being said they did give us a good laugh. The koala talk was also amaz...

What a super little Animal Park. We visited early on a public holiday and the park was very quiet. It a an exceptionally clean, well organised establishment with keepers regularly in evidence.

There are plenty of marsupials to see, as well as dingoes and many varieties of birds and Squamata...

I had wonderful experienced for two hours,and luckily I bump into 2pm koala presentation,and got chance to take photos with koalas in close distance. Every feeding area has affectionate animals (yes I’m talking about the baby goat chewing my jacket in a nice way) And huge thanks for staff Allen! He showed me around and explained very nicely about the zoo, he really brightened my day!
