The first Winter Olympics were held in Chamonix, France in 1924.  Winter sports, including various skiing events, have been competed in every Winter Olympics since then.  Vancouver and the nearby mountain resort area Whislter, in British Columbia Canada, are the proud hosts of the 2010 Winter Olympics. While the Winter Olympics are certainly the current event when thinking of Vancouver, the city is also considered one of the most desirable places to live in the world.  If you are planning a vacation to this beautiful city there are a number of must see attractions.  Stanley Park, being one of them, has a 1000 acres of west coast forest to explore with trails and a 6.5 mile seawall path for hiking and biking.  In addition Stanley park has 3 recreational beaches and its home to the Vancouver Aquarium.  Nearby Vancouver Island & Granville Island are very popular destinations and the Capilano Suspension Bridge provides incredible views of the Capilano River Canyon.  Finding an amazing holiday accommodation in the area should be a fun task as there are plenty of wonderful vacation rentals in Vancouver.

If you plan on attending the 2010 Winter Olypmpics and/or traveling to Vancouver for a family vacation with babies in tote, then pack lite because Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals has all the baby gear and supplies needed for your vacation.  Stroller rentals, car seats, full sized cribs, toys, infant bathtubs, and baby monitors are just a few examples of baby items for rent available through Wee Travel Baby Equipment RentalsWee Travel supplies baby equipment rentals to Toronto, Victoria, Vancouver, and their surrounding metro & resort areas.  They also own a delightful Vancouver vacation rental accommodation.

Wee Travel Baby Equipment Rentals (Toronto, Vancouver, Victoria) launched in 2005 as Canada’s first baby equipment rental company. Over the years, the company has sought out new products and innovative ways to make it safer, easier, and less stressful for families to fly with small children. The company recently opened The Modage, a beautiful furnished vacation rental in Kitsilano. After hearing customers remark over and over again how difficult it is to stay in hotels with small children, Wee Travel decided a vacation rental property was the solution. A fully equipped kitchen, fridge, stove, laundry facilities and baby gear such as a crib, highchair, carseat, stroller and toys were all key desires of their customers. The Modage was converted to a furnished vacation rental in August 2009. It’s stunning and welcomes kids and pets. The 1300 square foot townhouse is located in one of the most desirable areas of the city, and is within walking distance to Kits beach, Granville Island and a variety of trendy shopping areas and kids parks/water parks. It comes complete with a crib and highchair if required, and a full range of baby gear can be provided for a minimal cost. Now that’s what we call the “stress free” route to Vancouver.

Customer Spotlight: Anything For Baby Equipment Rentals in Phoenix

Today our “Customer Spotlight” shines down on Anything For Baby Inc. in “The Valley of The Sun”. It’s also a chance for Rent It Today to feature our Baby Equipment Rental category on this blog for the first time. As a result of the many complementary travel & vacation rental categories, “Baby Gear Rentals” has become one of our most successful categories.

Anything For Baby Equipment Rentals

About a year ago, when Rent It Today first started picking up speed, I told my partner we needed a new rental category: Baby Equipment Rentals.  At first he was unsure, however after a short discussion and a few quick Google searches it became clear Baby Gear was a significant rental category.  Especially when considering the drastic changes in air travel & Airline luggage allowance policies.  Coupled with how well it complemented our rapidly growing vacation rental inventory, adding baby items for rent became a “no-brainer”.  Anything For Baby Equipment Rentals was one of the first companies to advertise their baby rental services on RentItToday.com

Anything For Baby Rental Service Celebrates 12 Years in Business

Phoenix, Arizona, December 8, 2009- Anything For Baby Rental Service is celebrating its 12th year in the Phoenix metro area. In 1997, wanting to leave the corporate world behind and to spend more time with their one year old son, Chris and Mike Rounis, decided to open a home based business that could fill a niche yet have flexibility. “When my son was young we took several vacations and each time we had to drag along all the baby stuff,” explains Anything For Baby President, Chris Rounis, “This was very difficult to do when traveling by air. It always seemed that it would be so easy to have the equipment waiting for us when we arrived.  I found a need for a service to provide clean, safe, baby equipment to traveling families. Phoenix seemed to be the perfect vacation destination for us to start a baby rental business.” Beginning with only a handful of cribs, car seats and high chairs the baby business has exploded over the last 12 years. Now available to rent, is just about anything a parent or grandparent would want or for a new baby, toddlers, and children up to 6 years old. Repeating customers are accustomed to making reservations well in advance of holidays and special events because items are frequently sold out.”

Rental items included are: cribs, car seats, strollers, joggers, backpacks, high chairs, toys, swings, baby gyms and much more. Newly added is the “Only The Best for Baby” selection of premium items which features brands like Britax, Peg Perego, Baby Bjorn and Baby Einstein. The Anything For Baby shopping service will also deliver diapers, wipes or formula with the baby equipment order. Hospital grade breast pumps can also be rented for nursing moms. “Our service can make your youngster’s stay in Arizona just like home,” says the Company’s Vice President, Mike Rounis. All items are sanitized between each use and orders include free valleywide delivery and pick up to a residence, resort or vacation home. If picking up equipment is preferred, a location is now available, with advanced reservations, at Suitcases & More in Scottsdale.

Anything For Baby provides baby rental items that are reliable, safe, sanitized and include delivery. For more information about Anything For Baby Rental Service, contact Christine or Michael Rounis at 480-515-9783.
