i love this

i love this cot, its so cosy. Ive not used it yet as i have not had my baby yet (6 weeks to go)but i have ordered a mattress for it as i feel the travel cot one with it is too thin for every day use but if it was just for holidays i wouldnt have had to. my main reason for buying this was because i have a toddler who will be 2 the same week as this one is born and i was worried that he might be able to knock over a normal moses basket stand, this cot is really sturdy and it is bigger than a mosses basket so will last up to about 6 months which is great as we have limited space in our bedroom and thats where the baby will be up until about 6 months. really pleased with it :)
Great buy

This was just what we needed as it is larger than a moses basket. It assembles easily and is sturdy.Great for when staying over somewhere in those first months.

Fantastic travel cot smaller then the normal ones but big enough till your baby is old enough to go into a cot. Love the fact it has the bassinet and a nice comfy mattress to go with it. Will keep it for my children i have in the future as it is suitable for a girl or a boy.. Would highly recommend this to anyone who wants something bigger then a moses basket but not as big as a cot.
Buy instead of Moses basket!

..wish I'd known about it sooner - I would've bought it instead of the moses basket as baby outgrew basket in under 3 months!

Convenient & value for money

Easy to assemble this is just what we were looking for as a step between the moses basket and cot. The storage sections are really handy and baby is visible without being reachable for our 2 year-old. Very happy mummy!
Baby not due till September.....

..so we've not been able to put this to use yet, however, this is baby number 3 so i've seen a few travel cots and can share my initial thoughts on it. The first thing i notices about it was that the mattress DOES NOT drop down to the base as i thought was an option - it's not, the height of the mattress is fixed. I don't think this is made clear from the description. However, looking at the travel cot, by the time you would be wanting to drop the base your baby is probably going to be geting to big to be sleeping in there anyway. Also, you are compensated with a zip opening (you can't see this from the picture - it's on the other side from the pocket)that allows you to use the whole underneath area for storage, probably nappies/toys etc. As we plan to use this mostly for downstairs during the day and visiting family in the first few months, this is ideal for us. Hopefully it will prevent baby stuff taking up the whole of the downstairs and when we go away, it will take up less space in the boot than a standard size travel cot.
Although this will not last as long as the standard size before your baby out grows it, it is bigger than a moses basket, far sturdier (worth considering when you have other children bounding about, or animals) and for the same cost. Further more, i placed my order at about 16.30 and it was at my front door before 10.00 the next morning. Can't ask better than that. Very pleased with the service :)
lovely and compact

i bought this for when my 3 month old gran-daughter comes to stay over.
It isn't as big as most travel cots so doesn't take up much room but it is still spacious for little one to have a comfortable sleep in and the pockets on the side are ideal for all the nappies, wipes, lotions, the best thing about this cot is that it has the bassinet so the baby isn't down to low and you don't have to bend.
I would recommend this product to absolutely everyone, in fact my next door neighbour is already planning on ordering one.
Excellent service

Very impressed with the speed of delivery - this was our first pre-baby purchase and good to know we can rely on this site for future requirements. Baby won't be here for a couple of months but this product looks the business, just what we wanted for the early months and for Christmas with Grandparents around the county - more practical than a Moses basket and way cheaper than an Arms Reach or other popular bassinets (we don't want to co-sleep anyway). Having actually used it, if experience differs much from expectation I'll post an additional review.

This is the 2nd Dream & Care I have bought. The 1st for was my son's flat and the 2nd for mine.
It is an absolutely fantastic cot with loads of storage space, it doesnt take up much room either.
The delivery was 2nd to none and the customer service staff are very helpful and efficient.
The only downfall is that it takes a long time to get through on the phone, so perserverence is a must.
I am thinking of buying another Dream & Care for my neighbours new grand-daughter.
