The two-year-old girl was discovered by the bus driver in the luggage department during a planned stop in small town Kaiwaka, after he noticed the bag moving.
She was unharmed but very hot - and was taken to hospital.
A 27-year-old woman's due to appear in North Shore District Court today, charged with neglect.
Newstalk ZB's Lachlan Rennie says the incident has turned a lot of heads.
He says a lot of global media have picked up the story, including BBC, the Guardian and CBS.
