Traveling To Dubai With A Baby? Here’s How To Rent Baby Equipment Easily

Traveling to Dubai with a baby doesn’t have to mean packing everything you own. I’ve visited Dubai many times, also with my child, and I know how overwhelming it can feel trying to plan a family trip, especially with little ones.
The good news? You don’t have to. From strollers and cots to bottle sterilizers and toys, you can rent almost everything in Dubai. In this guide, I’ll show you what you can rent, where to get it, and how to make your trip easier.

You can rent most of the bulky baby items you’d normally bring on holiday. This includes:
- Strollers

Renting a Baby Stroller in Dubai
If you plan to explore Dubai, walking to the beach, shops, or nearby attractions, a stroller is a must. The good news is you don’t need to fly with one.
Here are your options:
1. Hire a stroller from local companies
Services like The Stroller Spa and Skytots let you reserve a stroller online before you travel. They deliver to your hotel, Airbnb, or even the airport and pick it up at the end of your trip. It’s convenient and hassle-free.
2. Use hotel or mall strollers
- Some hotels provide complimentary strollers, so check before you book.
- Dubai Mall and Mall of the Emirates rent strollers to shoppers. These are fine for short trips inside the mall but not for full-day outings.

3. Buy a stroller in Dubai
If you prefer buying, you’ll find plenty of options:
- Dubai Mall and Mall of the Emirates have large selections.
- For more affordable choices, check Carrefour.
4. Airport Strollers
Dubai International Airport offers free strollers at Terminal 3 (Emirates). You can use them from check-in to the gate.
Tip: You can bring strollers on the Dubai Metro, but try to avoid peak hours. There’s a women-and-children-only carriage for extra comfort.
Renting a Baby Cot in Dubai
Most hotels in Dubai provide baby cots upon request. Always confirm this when you book.
If you’re staying in an Airbnb or need an extra cot, both The Stroller Spa and Skytots rent out clean, sanitized baby cots. Just like with strollers, they’ll deliver it to you and pick it up later.
Renting a Car Seat in Dubai
Bringing a car seat on a plane isn’t ideal, and in Dubai, you don’t need to.

Here are your options:
- Rental companies like The Stroller Spa and Skytots offer a range of car seats for different ages.
- If you’re renting a car, most rental agencies offer car seats as an add-on.
- If you’re using taxis, you can book a car with a seat through the Careem app. Choose the Hala Juniors option to get a car with a car seat. It works just like Uber.
Other Baby Gear for Rent in Dubai
These companies (The Stroller Spa and Skytots) offer much more than just the basics. You can also rent:
For sleep time:
- Baby monitors
- Rockers and bouncers
For feeding:
- High chairs
- Bottle sterilizers
- Food preparation gear
For bath time:
- Baby bathtubs
- Bath seats
- Changing tables
For play time:
- Playpens
- Toys
- Scooters and helmets
- Beach toys and beach shelters
Skytots even rents hospital-grade breast pumps, which is great if you’re breastfeeding and don’t want to carry your own.
