Are there any laws and regulation for baby strollers and cots in Australia?
I’m migrating to Australia in Jan with a 6 months old baby. I can buy a stroller and a cot from where I’m living right now (sri lanka) at a cheaper price. However I’m wondering those available in sri lanka are allowed to use in Ausi.
Or need to know what are the criteria that I must consider when buying a cot or a stroller that is to be used in Ausi
Thanks
