Everything You Need In One Tiny Suitcase

            Due to the Centro Motel’s proximity to the Trans Canada Highway and the Aberta Children’s Hospital, we get a lot of families staying with us. Sometimes that means we have to come up with somewhat specialised furniture on short notice. Some families only really need to rent one room, but will require a crib to be installed in it, or a play pen. Due to most of our storage already being taken up with a fantastic collection of nearly useful bric-a-brac we typically rent these items from local providers. Recently, we’ve been renting the strollers, high chairs, and cribs that we need through a company called One Tiny Suitcase and, in short, it’s been great.

It looks like a suitcase, but it's not. It's a breast pump.

            While there is certainly something to be said for owning and maintaining your own equipment, there is also the added cost of cleaning and storing the items. For our needs it suits us better to rent the units, therefore outsourcing the cleaning and storage to One Tiny Suitcase. Fortunately, they carry all the top brand names in baby gear. I don’t actually know much about baby gear myself, but I understand that this to be a good thing. But then, all I really need to know is that they can deliver and set up all their products seven days a week, and that makes extremely convenient for us and the travelling families that stay with us.
