Holly H. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Love this bag! It's so cute, and the size is great especially if going for a weekend away with baby. The quality is great and the pocket for wipes is particularly handy."

8. Rechargeable Rockit Portable Baby Stroller Rocker - $99.90

VK⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"The Rockit has been a lifesaver for us as new parents, leaving us hands free to enjoy a much needed break when our little one is asleep in his pram: it has saved many a lunch out as well as being a godsend during an early patch when our son would only fall asleep in the evening when being rocked in his pram. Highly recommend!"

Kate G.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I take this with me everywhere! I couldn’t rate this product any higher! Such a useful gadget to have when baby is unsettled and just needs a little jig whilst you need your hands free! I’ve recommended it to all my mummy friends and will continue to do so. It’s bracket (now with the stronger replacement) really does attach to different prams.
