A woman in a red dress performs stand-up comedy onstage while holding a toddler on her hip. She gestures expressively toward the audience with one hand, speaking into a microphone. The backdrop features blue curtains and a circular sign with stage-show branding. The scene captures a warm, humorous moment blending parenting and performance.
A comedian stands under a spotlight onstage, smiling as she performs for a seated audience made up largely of parents with babies. Strollers, carriers, and baby gear are visible throughout the room. The crowd watches attentively while soothing or holding their infants, creating a relaxed, inclusive comedy setting.

BYO Baby with Amy Hetherington

A comedy show you can bring your baby to? ... Yeah mate, it’s BYO Baby!

Join Darwin comedian and mum Amy Hetherington for a show filled with material for parents and their babies. A safe space to laugh with other mums and dads and you can bring the bub.

Join the infectiously likable Darwin comic for stories about sleep deprivation, weird advice from strangers and crying over spilled milk. A perfect show for new parents, would-be parents, or never-would-I-ever parents

This show is baby-friendly but best not for babies with language skills as there is swearing.
