I see that you are on Brissy northside. There is a Hire-for-Baby franchise at Mitchelton and the lady running it has some really great quality stuff (it is like brand new!). We hired a swing from her and it was in tip-top shape. Give her a call and ask her what she has available.

I am not sure if she would stock it, but i can highly recommend the King Parrot bassinet. It is larger than most and will probably accommodate bubs for a bit longer.
