Phil and Teds traveller port a cot

[Taurean]

Hi Taureen

Just wondering how you use the angelcare monitor with the phil & teds portacot, do you need to place plywood in the slip as well or does it work against the floor?

Any advice would be much appreciated as i'm thinking of purchasing this portacot but really want to be able to use the monitor with it.

Hi Madsmum

We just slip our monitor pads into the base of the cot where the mattress is supposed to go (it's a pocket in the bottom of the cot) and we put our mattress, with a fitted sheet over it (my mum made one to fit) inside the cot. It works fine there as it's in direct contact with the floor but we always give it a test run before we put her in the cot to make sure it's working ok.

It works really well, we haven't had a problem with it at all. I hope that helps!
