    Where to buy cots??

    Hi, I'm looking into buying cots for my dayhome but it seems like all the sites are from the US and the shipping would kill me. Please tell me there's a canadian place I can get cots that won't cost so much to ship. I'm looking at the Angeles Value Line cots right now. Anybody have experience with those?

    I got mine on ebay, I think I paid about $200 CDN for 6 cots, shipping and 12 sheets for the cots.

    Not sure how close you are to Scholars Choice in Alberta but they sell them and depending on the distance you could drive to save shipping costs.

    Amazon .ca has these cots: Regalo Baby 5001 My Cot Portable Bed (Royal Blue). They are around $40. I am looking into getting them. They have several other types as well.

    Are you in the Edmonton area? Right now in the Edmonton Dayhome Providers FB group they are doing a group purchase of 2" thick sleep mats. If you are in the Edmonton area I can add you to the group and you can get in on the group order.

    You can order right off the babiesrus.ca website. That's where I purchased mine. I love it!
    I am not sure if they are still available, but it's worth checking out!

    . Couldn't fnd them on the Babier R Us site but they are on the Toys R Us site...but out of stock. Love that they fold up for easy storage, include a sheet & are $39.99! You can click on a link to have them advise you when they come available....http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index....uctId=12241926
    Children are great imitators.
    So give them something great to imitate.

A few tips...

If you encounter a daycare provider with out-of-date openings / spaces, click on the button right above the currently listed openings to report it!
Updates
We expect providers to keep their listing and available openings up-to-date. However, to prevent oversights, openings expire after 45 days.
