We’ve finally settled on a cot after considering the total room dimension and space to fit a single bed for the helper. It took us two baby fairs, two trips to the baby outlet stores, and lots of online research.
Our criteria for the cot:
1. Must have wheels to move from room to room
2. Must not be wider than 75cm to fit through the door
3. Preferably not too long so we can fit a single bed and a small drawer on the same side of the wall.
With the criteria above, we have a cot that is probably not going to last more than the first two years. But we figure it’s a decent amount of time because we may move to our own place before that. Will post pictures when we have everything in place. =)
