Up to what age can my baby stay in the hammock?

The Baby Hammock Company hammock is designed to be used from birth up to approximately 6-9 months, depending on the size and development of the individual baby. We recommend once a baby’s length is past the hammock domes and/or baby begins to roll over that baby be placed in a flat bed.

How do I place baby in the hammock?

Once the hammock has been correctly assembled and installed, following the instructions provided, you can place baby into the hammock. Until you are comfortable with doing this you may wish to practice using a doll or soft toy.

Hold baby with one arm, close to your side and on your hip. With the other arm keep the hammock steady. Place baby into hammock ensuring that baby’s head is up as far as possible to the top of the mattress. Baby’s feet should be at the dome end of the mattress.

Ensure baby is lying straight in the hammock. You may need to adjust the wood separator and mattress until it is straight.

Once baby is comfortable, and blanket (if required) are placed, ensure all domes are fastened.

Why should I use a baby hammock?

The Baby Hammock Company baby hammock has been designed to provide a secure, safe and comfortable environment for baby to sleep in. The gentle bouncing and swaying helps to settle baby encouraging sleep. The Baby Hammock Company hammock is proven to help settle babies with colic or unsettled babies.

Placing your baby in a hammock also keeps baby safe from older children and pets*.

*Always ensure hammock is properly assembled and installed using the instructions provided.

Installation

Please read the following instructions and installation information carefully so your baby is always kept safe.

Note to consider before installing:

  • Ensure that chains are high enough so that other children or objects cannot swing or reach into hammock, or undo domes.
  • This is NOT a baby swing, although it has been designed to swing gently for baby’s comfort.
  • Ensure baby has a clear space around where hammock is hung, so that baby does not bang against any objects eg. walls and doors.
  • DO NOT hang hammock in doorway or closer than one metre to a wall. The hammock will block a doorway and baby may get knocked on side of door ie. walls and doors.
  • Please ensure baby hammock is drilled securely into ceiling joist.
  • Domes of hammock should always be fastened.
