more compact PNP-type thing?

springbeduk2

I know this was mentioned in a thread a couple of months ago but I did a search and scrolled through screens and screens of results and the previous thread is just not showing up  So please if someone would be kind enough to share again, I'd be very grateful!

Can you recommend a more compact PNP-type thing? - especially more compact for travel but also taking a bit less floor space.  Use for this would be for baby to sleep in and also perhaps as a playpen for very very short periods of time when LO is old enough to be mobile.

The one mentioned before was a brand I hadn't heard of before (not Graco, for example) and it might have been 2 people's names?  Maybe?  But perhaps there are other good options out there.

TIA!

We have a Go Crib that inflates and folds into a back pack. I don't know if they sell it any more. Maker is Guava Family.

The PNP (Graco) really isn't that big.  We travel with it no problem.  I'd be hesitant to go much smaller because at just over 2, DD barely fits in it anymore (for sleeping).

They have mini pnp.

We have this one in a different colour scheme:

I think it's standard size but it's no frills, and folds up pretty compactly. I've found it light enough to carry around. There are other brands that make ones specifically for traveling, those might be lighter but I'm not sure if they are smaller.

Phil and Ted and BabyBjorn make lightweight travel cribs, but they're expensive. We have the arms reach mini cosleeper for LO to sleep in. It converts to a playpen as well. It's definitely smaller than a PNP and it comes with a travel bag, but I don't know that I would want to be traveling with it because it's pretty heavy.
