Dec 19 Travelling to Accra With A Baby? Here’s The Easiest & Most Convenient Way To Rent Baby Gear In The City.

If you’re a new parent visiting Ghana for a holiday to escape the winter, coming for your best-friend’s wedding, relocating for work or a quick annual family trip, you’ve probably already wondered how to make the journey easier. You’ve been mulling and stressing over the amount of baby luggage you need to move from point A to B. Well, the good news? You don’t need to pack the entire nursery. Accra now has convenient baby-gear rental options that help you travel light, stress-free and fully prepared for your stay in the city.

Let me walk you through the simplest way to make your trip with baby smooth from start to finish, but first let’s highlight the struggle of travelling with baby gear.

Why Travelling With Baby Gear Is So Stressful

• Airline baggage limits and overweight fees : Travelling with a child means packing all of their extra clothes, their favourite snacks, baby wipes, device chargers, comfort toys (his/her favourite toy)… the list never ends. This definitelyincrease your baggage limit at the airport thus sees you paying more in overweight bags.

• Hassle of carrying baby gear through airports: It’s major struggle carrying a strollers, car seats, playpens, bouncers,

cots, etc which you’ve checked in before your flight from the carousel whilst waiting to also pick up your heavy vacation bags.

• Risk of damage during flights: That one Joie car seat you bought online suddenly looks crushed on one side due to poor handling by an airline.

• Most often strollers may be forced into the back seat where your existing luggage is thus reducing space and comfort.

• Travel bags get piled around the child, which is unsafe in case of sudden braking.You simply need less stress when you’re coming all the way to Accra for a holiday as a parent. Trust me on this. That’s why I’m excited about ReSi a baby gear renting service I came across recently. It makes so much sense for new parents visiting Accra for the first time to see their grandparents, diasporans and expats relocating to Ghana and having young ones. If even you live in Accra already, honestly there are some baby gear items which you might need on the spur of the moment but for a short period and renting it is more cost-effective.
