Nursery • Kanoe Baby Hammock

Kanoe Baby Hammock in Organic Cotton

Over and over I read about how movement is essential for baby's neurological development, but the bottom line is, I just like baby hammocks. This one is quite frankly, in my mind, perfect.

On the "eco" side, it is 100% organic cotton canvas, and no chlorine is used in the bleaching process. All dyes are low-impact, fiber reactive and contain no heavy metals. You can forgo having a crib (and all the wood etc. that comes with that) since the hammock can be lowered to a few inches off the floor and children can be taught how to safely climb out themselves when they are able. The spring is responsive to children weighing 10-30 lbs, and a heavy-duty spring is available for children 30-50 lbs.

On the features side, the hammock is completely adjustable, you can raise or lower it depending on the height of your ceiling, and you can also tilt it as recommended for acid-reflux and colic. If you have twins, you can rock two at the same time. If you want, you can install ceiling mounts in several locations throughout your home and outside, easily move the hammock, and have baby nap nearby wherever you are. If you have a small space it is quite the space saver.
