Gear Up, Baby Rentals

14/12/2025

As we prepare to officially retire this page, we wanted to share one last note for those who have followed along since the Gear Up Baby days.

Jessica has continued growing her photography business, creating thoughtful, beautiful work for locals, visitors, and traveling clients. She especially enjoys family sessions and bo***ir, with a style that celebrates connection, confidence, and meaningful moments. If you’re looking to document a special season or milestone, we encourage you to explore her page.photography

Baby gear rentals remain available in Juneau through Spruce & Sapling Supply, now independently run by Hunter. She’s grateful to keep this service accessible for local families and to stay connected within Juneau’s parent community. Spruce & Sapling also offers professional baby gear cleaning services in addition to rentals.and.sapling

This page will be taken down on 12/31.

Thank you for being part of the Gear Up Baby chapter — we’re thankful for the support, connections, and community that made it possible. Wishing everyone a peaceful holiday season 🤍

Dear Valued Customers and Friends,

After much thought and consideration, we have made the difficult decision to close Gear Up Baby Rentals. It has been an incredible journey serving Juneau and the surrounding communities, providing safe, reliable, and convenient baby gear rentals for your little ones.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to each of you who trusted us to be a part of your family’s travels and daily adventures. Your support, feedback, and smiles have meant the world to us.

As we close this chapter, please note that we will no longer take reservations starting **October 1st**.

Jessica has launched a brand-new business, .photography specializing in maternity, family portraits, bo***ir, and more. She is a gifted photographer dedicated to preserving those special moments. If you're looking for someone talented to capture your family's story, follow her page and watch for her availability.

Hunter will be preparing for the birth of her third child and taking some much-deserved time off to spend with her growing family. Stay tuned to learn how to follow and support her in the coming months.

Thank you for being a part of our story.

With gratitude and love,
Hunter and Jessica

Happy Father's Day to guys behind the scenes who help us reach the top shelves, do full-sized crib deliveries to three-story Airbnbs, and a hot lap around the airport with a carload of kids so we can deliver car seats.

Thank you for all your support and free advertising ♥️

We hope everyone has a wonderful time with family and friends. Please take a moment to remember the reason we have this three-day weekend and think of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. We will be closed to new orders until Tuesday. ♥️🇺🇲

Another year on the books! As we enter our third summer, we are continuously blown away by the support of our community and fellow business owners. 🌄

Over the last two years, we have each added another child to our families 🤱 We've moved our operation out of a spare bedroom and into a commercial space. 🔑 We've quit our full-time jobs to continue to grow and learn the intricacies of operating a small business.📈

And it wouldn't be possible without this place we call home and the beautiful people who live here. From the bottom of our hearts - thank you, Juneau 💓🏞️

Stay tuned for a special, long-time coming announcement this Saturday!

Happy Mothers day from the families behind the business! We hope everyone enjoyed their Sunday despite the rain ☔️
