room-to-room naps

I'm looking for something we can take from room-to-room during the day while baby naps so I can get stuff done. She is currently taking naps in a boppy swing but doesn't really like it and it says to limit to only 30 minutes, 2 times a day. At night she sleeps in her bassinet and sometimes in my bed. Just wanted to get some reviews on products you ladies may use and that you and baby like. I know there are pack n plays, loungers, and things like that but it seems like so many options that I don't know where to start. TIA!

Why not just let her sleep in the bassinet for naps? You don't have to have her with you everywhere you go in the house. Get a monitor and check in on her. Don't waste money on something you probably will only get a few months worth of use out of.

Agreed. Whatever you get won't last long. A good video monitor would be a good investment though. You could also wear baby but again, letting her sleep in her bed for naps will get her used to it and let her have a good restorative nap.

I also suggest the rock and play. We use this all over and even sent it with LO when he stayed at grandmas house. Very light and easy to move around even when he is asleep in it.

This 100%. And a video monitor lasts a long time. We are still using one in our 3 and 4 year old kids' room so we can keep an eye on them when we hear odd noises.

Our twins sleep in their rock n plays. We will carry them room to room in them. This is the only this we can get them to sleep in except our arms, they are perfect.
