Where to Buy Baby Formula and Cots
March 2008 Hanoi Botanical Gardens

Hi

I have just arrived in Hanoi with 7 month old twins, really need help in finding accommodation and a nanny.

But my highest priority right now is finding baby formula and cots. Tom the 'roller' is currently sleeping on the floor.

Have tried the Citimart under Hanoi Towers for formula, but they didn't have Heinz Formula and also tried Vincom towers for the cots but they also didn't have any.

If anyone knows a nanny in need of work could you please recommend this post to them.

Thanks

check out de la thanh street for decent wooden cots at a low price. many shops in the city sell exactly the same at a much higher cost. the ones on this street though are only a few hundred thousand (compared to over a million dong in the shops)

can't help with formula, sorry

Thanks, I did find cots on De La Thanh Street and then was emailed a website which is very handy, but you would need someone who knows Vietnamese to order anything.

Are you finding Farley formula of Heinz ? I googled and found that there is a distributor in Hanoi. The add is : No 90 Tran Nhat Duat Street. Tel : 8283204. You can buy a 900gr one at the price round 300 000 VND.

Why don't you try other supermarts like Fivimart (along West Lake), Metro (towards the Museum of Ethnology) or Big C? The baby supplies seem well-equipped there.
