Our Story

We’re passionate about making best use of the planet’s resources

Roundabout is the latest venture from the team behind Merry-go-round, an award winning social enterprise in Glasgow, specialising in baby and children’s goods since 2012. Merry-go-round is a reduce, reuse business designed to disrupt the waste, expense and environmental impact of caring for your children in their early years. But beyond this, Merry-go-round is a community, and a support for families to share experiences and resources. 

Merry-go-round is driven by sustainability, making second hand the easy first choice with our boutique full of quality items, at low prices.  

We’re really knowledgeable about baby and children’s goods

…and we care about making things easy for families.

Hop aboard the growing community of parents renting instead of buying.

Roundabout is the next step on, designed to assist parents traveling in and out of Glasgow with access to affordable, high quality child care equipment - a dependable rental service with a personal touch.  

Sometimes you just need something for a short trip – a foldable buggy for a flight, or a black out blind for a sunny adventure. You want to be sustainable, but you need it to be easy and a service you can rely on. We’ve got you covered!

Oh, and as an added bonus, you’re also supporting thousands of Glasgow families through Merry-go-round’s community work. Every penny from Roundabout goes back into supporting families with low cost goods, supplying over 100 free packs per month to families who need them, and running hundreds of support events and activities to bring people together.
