but I have seen many people with babies in strollers. I would say that it would still be hard with a stroller as the pavement, although better, is still uneven and has large drops to the street especially at the corners. I would suggest a sling/backpack type or maybe even a lightweight stroller (you know the ones that you buy for about $20). That way you can give it to someone you meet there and don't have to fuss with the weight.
Kuta Kidz and Indigo Kids have really cute hats and kids stuff in general. You can purchase hats in the market stalls.
I have found that the babysitting service can be expensive in some hotels so we use a lady called Jodi. She has 3 kids (2 girls and 1 boy) and is very good. We have used her from 1 hour to all day. Very reasonable prices too. Just email me if you want her details.
Food; I would suggest that if you are after tin/jar stuff that you take it with you. I haven't notice baby food, but I haven't really looked. Definately take baby panadol and 30+ sunscreen as it is expensive over there.
Have fun and don't forget the JBR
