Show notes::

“I would estimate that the average family with children under the age of three will need to take around 83lb of child-related kit with them – not including clothing. That’s why our properties not only provide giant sandpits, toys, babysitting and the option of home-cooked meals, but vital equipment such as sterilisers, blenders and potties. And we can even supply a box of the right-sized nappies.”
