What is a baby nest?
A baby nest or often called a baby lounger, is essentially a portable baby bed, roughly the size of a pram bassinet. It’s made up of non-toxic and eco-friendly materials and is perfectly lightweight to allow you to move it around the house or pack up into the car for adventures out and about with your little one.
The proposing of baby nest
The bulk of the use of baby nest is to have a safe place outside of the baby’s bassinet to put him down when I needed to use my hands. I could cart it around the house with me and pop it on the lounge or the floor in any room, keeping him nearby. We would also use it for him to take naps in during the day.
When bub wasn’t napping in the nest, we used it as a great alternative to a play mat in those early days when he wasn’t ready to be out in the open. A newborn baby feels more comfortable in a smaller and cosier space. We often used it for tummy time. As a first time Mum, it was comforting to know that there was a soft platform to protect his head as it bopped up and down with very little control.
