Looking for used crib and car seat
Hi everyone. It's been a long journey to parenthood but it looks like we will be starting to do foster care soon! I'm hoping to find a crib with mattress that meets safety guides. I looked on craigslist but the ones I called about all had drop sides. Does anyone have a gently used crib and/or car seat I could buy, or know a place I could get one that would meet current safety rules?
