Hi Kerry, I do not have a Mobi but it does look really nice. Im the same, I like to have them in a carycot top and facing me when they are little. Have you looked at any other prams? There are quite a few on the market now that have a carrycot and small folding bases. M&P have just brought out the new skate, the mutsy 4 rider, bugaboo, the bebecar r-versus has a pram style carrycot and pushchair top with a umberella fold base, there is also the loola but I have heard that people either love this one or hate it. Hope this helps, Nicola.
