Fun Things To Do With a Baby in Pittsburgh

Visit Schenley Park

Schenley Park has 456 acres of trails, woods, and exciting attractions. Unwind over a lunch picnic, ride the PNC carousel, or peek into the Sportsplex with your baby at Schenley Park. It may even be a spot you visit more than once during your trip.

Since you’ll likely be walking a lot through the park, bringing a carrier like the Tushbaby is essential to keep you and your baby comfortable. Secure Tushbaby’s waistband high and tight above your waist, place your baby on the plush hip seat, and support them in the four carrying positions with one arm. Tushbaby even offers a feeding position, meaning it doubles as a nursing pillow— you can stop to breast or bottle-feed by simply laying your baby across the plush seat and retrieving a feeding cover from a Tushbaby pocket if needed. That’s one less thing to pack when you have Tushbaby!

Depending on how long you plan to visit the park, you might find a need for hands-free babywearing; with The Snug attachment wrap, you can convert your Tushbaby to a hands-free carrier whenever you want! Designed for babies 12-45lbs, Tushbaby and The Snug create the ultimate convertible carrier that combines hands-free flexibility with the storage and support of our hipseat. The Snug is easy to put on and remove alone, and when not in use, The Snug can be stored in the under-seat storage pocket of your Tushbaby.

Enjoy time at the National Aviary

During winter, Pittsburgh's weather can be a bit chilly. Visit the National Aviary to escape to a tropical paradise with the new National Aviary’s Coastal Getaway. The National Aviary is packed with habitats like Penguin Point, Canary’s Call, and more. This family-friendly stop offers something for all ages, so prepare for lots of fun and walking.

Bring your Tushbaby along to hold your baby close and keep your back supported for the day ahead. Use the side-carrying position to bond with your baby as you point to and engage with your surroundings, or carry them forward-facing to give them the perfect perch to watch the parrots while comforting them with your touch. For feeding time, switch to the feeding position to breast or bottle-feed with added support, and when the sleepies hit, carry them face-to-face as they drift off on your chest. If you’d rather babywear hands-free, simply attach The Snug to your Tushbaby to carry your little one facing in or out. To bring it all together, clip The Pod to your Tushbaby’s toy loops—this chic and compact pouch is perfect for quick access to clean pacifiers, or petite essentials like earbuds, credit cards, and lipstick.

Catch a Pittsburgh Pirates game

Sporting events might seem intimidating with a baby, but Tushbaby can grow your confidence quickly at a Pittsburgh Pirates game. As you navigate the crowds with your hands full, pair Tushbaby with The Snug for hands-free babywearing, and once you’re seated, stow The Snug in Tushbaby’s under-seat pocket so your baby can check out the exciting new environment. Tushbaby’s design and padded waistband make it easy to wear seated or standing, and with five storage pockets, you’ll have all the essentials (diapers, snacks, a bottle, toys, you name it) right on your hip. No need for a diaper bag, nursing pillow, or stroller—Tushbaby does it all. Really.

Eat, shop, and find entertainment at Station Square Pittsburgh

Stop for a quick bite or kill some time at Station Square Pittsburgh. This village-like area has everything from waterfront views to hotels, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. You may want to do some shopping, but carrying more bags can be a hassle when you’re carrying your baby too. Don’t worry: Totebaby’s got you covered. This versatile vegan leather diaper tote can double as your stylishly sustainable shopping bag, and comes with removable features like an organizer, changing pad, and divider pocket—perfect for stashing your Tushbaby or separating your new goodies from the day’s necessities.
