I have always wondered how women get their hands on a stroller parking permit or what I like to call “VIB-Very Important Baby” permit. As a mom I feel so vulnerable when I’m out and about with my little one and parking near a store entrance makes me feel safer. It is also much more convenient for rainy days, large cargo, or cranky babies. I thought you had to have special momma privileges or fill out a complicated application to receive a stroller parking permit but NOT AT ALL! Any parent with a baby can get one!
I recently went with my best friend, who also has a baby, on a mommy stroll to our local justice center and we both got our “VIB” parking pass in about 15 minutes tops for the both of us. I was surprised at how quick we got them.
The permit expires a month before the child’s third birthday. Thirty-five dollars for “VIB” parking for three years?! I’ll take it! It is so simple and so worth it. I absolutely recommend it to every parent.
* Keep in mind this is for Miami-Dade County. Other counties or states have different rules and regulations.

This is awesome! I wish we had this in california. We have expectant mom parking but a permit is not required and a lot of the time I see non preggos parking there.
WHAT!? Man, I so need this. Dang! I really wish this was a thing here.

Wow! I didn’t know that something like this even existed! I am going to guess that we do not have this in Indiana, but I do agree that this should be something that we have everywhere!

No idea this was a thing! Cool! I don’t think we have this in Arizona!
It is in Miami Dade county, Florida but not all counties in Florida have it. I don’t think they do either but this should be a thing everywhere! It’s so awesome!
