If it were me I would honestly want a specific location for my push chair
and would not view it as drawing attention to my disability. it would be
worse for me fumbling about looking for mine! Even with an audible device.
I do not feel the child would suffer adversely either if I did not have to
scramble with other Mum's to retrieve my child's push chair. Indeed I
think it would be better all round. However, I do not wish to loose sight
of the original question about an audible device to locate the push chair.

But if not appearing obvious is the idea, then fiddling about with other
peoples pushchairs looking for a tactile marker aint going to do it.

I agree Carol as a tactile marking would draw less attention to one as a
visually impaired Mum.

Hi,
I know have been some audible sound beacons etc but these may be rather
expensive. Personally I'd think about whether I could have an allotted
place in the push-chair park and/or if a band on the handle might be
sufficient to find it.
I hope others can come up with good suggestions.
