Indoor cardiovascular with a baby

So on nice days I have an easy time getting my walk/jog in that day because my baby is great in the stroller but when it's rainy it's hard to find something to entertain her long enough for me to get a good workout in. I carry her sometimes but she's pretty heavy and I can't jog with her, any tips or ideas?

    Walk Aerobics, step aerobics, rebounding?

    This is low impact, great for nap time. Lower impact might be a workout for a lighter day. If baby is awake you can sub in high impact moves

    Low impact but still has intensity

    Workout when she has a nap. I have an 18 month old and that's the only time I get to lift weights

    Well my treadmill is too loud for her to sleep through but strength training could be a good alternative I suppose, she's not much of a sleeper though either lol
