A Special Wish for Two Amazing Children

Back in January, we were told that our two amazingly brave and stoical children, had been granted a special Wish, ...

Four Saturdays….What a Difference!

These are the graphs from the Abbott Freestyle Libre for Little Miss BB (aged 6) for the first four Saturdays. ...

Description:

The Mothercare GENiE is a new modern looking pushchair. The GENiE is aptly named as it appears at first glance to be a single pushchair with a reversible seat. However, like magic, the front of the lower chassis extends, upon a press of a button. A second seat can then be added to form a tandem. Extending the chassis of the GENiE also appears to extend the basket, which is easily accessed in all single and double modes of use. The seat units also transform - simply undoing two clips, to forms a carrycot. A carrycot apron is included. The seats recline when both forward and reverse facing. The handlebar is adjustable.The seat fabric is treated with SilverNano to ensure that it keeps fresh and will not get stained. The GENiE comes with a raincover and there are matching footmuffs. The Mothercare GENiE can also become a travel system with the addition of either Maxi Cosi or Universal car seat adaptors.

Pros:

A single to double option where you pull the chassis apart, and pop on the second seat. The seats are also carrycots - simply undo a buckle. Both seats can recline. The fabrics are treated to be antibacterial. 2 year guarantee. Car seat option. Raincovers included. Main seat adaptor which comes with the second seat raises the main seat up to be nearer the parent. Footmuff / liner is included. Compact fold.
