I a taking on a little 4 1/2 month old starting next week, did not expect to be taking on a little one, but mum loves my setting, the family is lovely and it is only 3 days which fits in perfect for me.
However I have my own 3 year old and a 14 month old full time, plus 2 after schoolies who are 4 on a wed thur fri, so am looking at what I can use to pop him in while i cook tea, or need to see to one of the little ones, so he is safe, and so he can still play.
Was wondering what you use. I do have a travel cot, but was wondering if a play pen might be a good investment, especially as one of my mums is pregnant and her little one will be comeing to me at the end of next year.
I Have been looking at the lindam safe and secure playpen, which has a nice thick mat at the bottom, and can also be used as a room divider, plus I can take it out in the summer on the grass, but was wondering if this was really necesssary and if the travel cot will do just as good, plus i have to be careful of takng up too much space, as i use my dining room and front room for minding, so not a huge house.
What do you use??
Any input appreciated
