Currently, there are many assistive devices on the domestic market that make it easier for parents to spend time with young children. There are two main types of devices for motion sickness - swings and sun loungers. The latter is more like a portable rocking chair with a backrest. A distinctive feature is low weight, because not every mommy can lift weights. The chaise longue is conceived, first of all, for the mobility of the baby's movement around the house - you can place the chaise longue in the kitchen, and in the meantime the mother will cook dinner, or in the living room while ironing the linen. The kid will sleep sweetly under supervision, or enthusiastically look at the hanging toys.

Sun loungers, depending on the model, can provide for rocking both up and down, and in time with the movements of the baby, be equipped with an electronic motion sickness mechanism or not have it at all - the so-called manual motion sickness.

What age is a chaise longue chair suitable for?

You can use this device from birth. In doing so, it is necessary to make sure that the design of the model is suitable for a newborn baby. This is usually indicated in the instructions for the sun lounger. If there is no such confidence, for example, the chair was purchased from hands without documents and packaging, then it is better to put the child on a chaise longue when he has already begun to hold his head.

The period of using this gadget, unfortunately, is short-lived - up to 5-6 months. However, you can purchase a sun lounger that can be used for babies up to one year old, for example, as a highchair.

How to choose a sun lounger in the store

What kind of chaise lounge will be the best solution? Which model should you choose? These are rather difficult questions that require thorough preparation. Pay attention to the following:

• All children's things and gadgets should be as safe as possible. Therefore, the first thing to look at is the seat belts. They must be in stock. It is also worth paying attention to the belt mounts and soft pads. The child is growing, so the straps must be adjustable in length.
• A device such as a chaise longue must be durable and reliable. You should carefully inspect the base and all attachment points. Nothing should wobble. Everything should be solid, stable and of high quality.
• It is preferable to choose an ergonomic shape of the seat in order to provide the most physiological posture for the child sitting in the chair. It is better if a special insert is provided for newborn babies.
• It is very important that the soft cape is neatly made from breathable materials. It is better to choose a model with removable covers so that they can be easily washed if necessary.
• Children's sun loungers should be lightweight and mobile, otherwise their use is largely meaningless. After all, mom needs to easily cope with its transportation.
• It is good to choose models with toys - they contribute to the development of the baby and will be able to interest him for a while.
• It is noticed that kids like models with vibration and melodies more. Vibration calms and nods the child, and melodies help develop hearing.
• If there is no extra money, then you can choose a simple model with mechanical motion sickness. The child will still like it.
• In the event that freeing hands is the main goal, electronic models should be chosen.
• In the electronic version, preference should be given to models that do not just vibrate, but swing the child. This is a more natural process than vibration.
• For thrifty parents who are looking to the future, modern models are suitable, which can be used as a highchair. Yes, such sun loungers will be much more expensive, but their functionality will justify the costs.
• It is very good if an additional protective hood is included in the package. With him, you can safely take your child in a sun lounger outside. The hood will protect the baby's head from the sun's rays.
• Today, many models in the more expensive segment are equipped with a remote control. If there is an opportunity to purchase such a sun lounger, then you should not miss it. The remote control makes the life of a young mother very easy.
• It's also worth paying attention to the brand. The most popular today are Jetem, Chicco, Graco, Fisher-Price, Tiny Love, Happy Baby. These firms are reliable, they produce quality products at an affordable price. Of course, you can consider the products of more expensive European companies, such as Concord (France), Cosatto (England), BabyBjorn (Sweden). These models will be quite expensive in terms of price, but impeccable in quality and safety.
• You should also take into account the age of the child, if the baby is already 3-5 months old, then buying a sun lounger is no longer worth it. Spending money to use it for a couple of months is unwise.

A correctly chosen chaise longue will appeal to the crumb and will greatly facilitate mom's life.

Precautionary measures

There are a few precautions you should take when using a chaise lounge:

• You always need to fasten your baby with seat belts!
• You cannot leave your child alone, even if he is securely fastened in the chair.
• You can not put the chaise longue on high surfaces - table, chair, bed. This gadget can only be used by placing it on the floor.
• The surface on which the chaise longue is installed should not be slippery.
• It is better not to carry the chair with your child. There is always a chance of falling or dropping a load.
• If the child is active, then you should always be in close proximity, since a very mobile child can get out of the device or turn it over.
• Do not use a seat for a child weighing more than the instructions allow. This is fraught with a broken deck chair and injuries to the baby.
• A chaise longue is not a carrier or car seat. The gadget should be used only for its intended purpose - for motion sickness and entertainment of the baby!
• You should not attach additional toys suspended by laces to the arches. The child can tear off the toy, and take the lace in his mouth and choke.
• Do not rock your baby in a sun lounger for more than 15-20 minutes. This negatively affects the vestibular apparatus. For the same reason, it is not worth choosing too intense swing speeds for newborn babies.
• Feeding a child in a chaise lounge should only be in a static position. During the swing, the crumb may choke.

Precautions are far from an empty phrase, every rule is based on tests in production or a tragedy in domestic conditions of use. But don't be scared! Correct use of the chair will ensure complete safety for the child and enable the mother to be more free.

Modern mothers now have the opportunity to use devices that make it easier to care for their baby, freeing up time for other things. A chaise longue for newborns is also such a good gadget. This article is dedicated to him, we hope with its help we will answer many of your questions.

One of mom's helpers is a chaise longue for a baby. This is a chair in which the child can play, sleep, contemplate others and even eat.

The advantages of children's sun loungers are that they allow parents to do their usual activities while the child is comfortable. Thanks to its compact size, the chair can be placed in the trunk of any car and taken with you wherever you go. Some models have the character of universal devices, which makes it possible to use them, subsequently converting them into high chairs.

Modern sun loungers for newborns have built-in toys, you can hang various elements to develop coordination, motor skills and sensory skills of the baby.

How to choose the right chaise longue for newborns?

Before you buy this useful device, you should consider what types of child seats are in stores. There are 4 main types.

1. Mechanical models. The prototype of modern sun loungers, characterized by many functions. Their disadvantage is the need to rock the baby yourself, this is not always convenient.
2. Electronic options. These are the bestsellers among baby sun loungers for newborns. Their advantage is that parents' hands are free thanks to the built-in vibration mechanism. You can select a soundtrack option.
3. Electronic versions with imitation of the baby's motion sickness in the arms. They are characterized by a high level of functionality, but they have a high price. As your baby grows, you can transform this lounger into a feeding chair.
4. Combined models (chair + swing). Convenient for use at home and going to a picnic or to the country.

Let's list what you should pay attention to when choosing.

1. Security. In order for the baby to be in a physiological position, and he does not crawl off the chaise longue, it is better to choose ergonomic models with seat belts and retainer pads, as well as with special liners for newborns. Before buying, make sure that all mechanisms are in good working order, paying maximum attention to the fasteners. A sun lounger for newborns must be very reliable and durable.
2. Antiallergenic. It is better to give preference to models made from natural fabrics so as not to provoke the occurrence of allergic reactions in the baby. If you often go out of town with your family, then you should pay attention to the options for compact sun loungers made of lightweight breathable materials that are easy to remove and wash if necessary.
3. Baby's age and weight. It is inappropriate to use a sun lounger for a one-year-old baby, especially if its weight exceeds that indicated on the label and in the instructions.
4. Additional functions (motion sickness, vibration, melodies, toys).

These chairs can be used from the moment the baby is born. You should make sure in advance that the design of the sun lounger meets the needs of the crumbs.

The service life of the device is about 6 months, since as it grows, the need to passively lie for a long time disappears. Some models of chairs can be converted later into a high chair.

The price of such a baby chaise longue for newborns is higher, even if you purchase them on the Internet, but this is more than offset by the ease of use and the level of safety.

Happy and successful parenting!

When my first child was born, I still did not know about the existence of children's sun loungers. The young dad was at work for days, grandparents were 6 thousand kilometers away, so you could only rely on yourself. I recall with horror how I washed the only stroller in order to somehow place it on the 4 square meters of the kitchen (and there was also a kitchen set, a refrigerator, a stove and a table). At first, the son would fit in, and after a while, the son would sit down, strap on, and I could calmly cook while he looked around, listened to my songs and played with hanging toys. It was still uncomfortable and unsafe, but better than having the baby lying on the kitchen floor or yelling in the bedroom while in his crib.

Already during my second pregnancy, I purchased a chaise longue, which I chose for a long time and carefully (I do not specifically indicate the company, since the article is not for advertising). I was not interested in vibration modes and music. And the ability to compactly fold, mobility, a light bed and a firm back were welcomed.

Even the simplest sun lounger designed for children consists of several elements. They may differ in material of manufacture, design, or be completely absent in different models of a chaise lounge, even from the same manufacturer.

Let's list them so that it becomes clear what to look for when buying. And to understand which of the functions you need.

Let's disassemble the chaise longue "by the bones"

1. Frame. As a rule, it is made of aluminum and plastic, therefore, if the maximum permissible load is exceeded, it may bend or break. Of course, the frame made of another metal is stronger, but it is much heavier, which is not very convenient when moving it, especially with a child. It can be in the form of a bent pipe (hollow inside) and in the form of a thick wire. There are also frameless chaise lounges.

2. Cover. In most models, it is removable for washing and easy storage. The material of the cover is varied: it can be natural fabrics (cotton) and artificial ones. The former are more pleasant to the body, and the latter are more durable and brighter. The cover can consist of 1 layer of fabric, or it can be multi-layer (inside there is a soft filler). In the back area, plastic or cardboard plates can be sewn into the cover to maintain its shape (so that it does not sag).

3. Insert. It is not available on all models and is intended to make newborn babies more comfortable.

4. Headrest. Soft, fixes the baby's head in a certain position. May be unfastened in some models.

5. Handles. The chaise longue is carried from one place to another by the handles. It is important that they are attached to the sun lounger as firmly as possible. If they are (and they are not in all models), then they are often sewn into the cover.

6. Seat belts. There are three-point and five-point, with pads or "panties" between the legs, adjustable in length.

7. Mechanisms for adjusting the level of the backrest and footrest. Both of these mechanisms are available only in some models. The mechanism for adjusting the level of the backrest tilt is more common, but it may also be absent. Then the chaise longue will resemble a car seat.

8. Bow or pendant with toys. The arch can be stationary or removable. Arc toys are usually removable and can be replaced with others. The arc tilt level is adjustable.

9. Visor or sun canopy. It happens in rare models, it involves the use of a deck chair outside.

10. Control panel for various modes (vibration, motion sickness) and music. Many pediatricians, especially neurologists, warn against excessive enthusiasm for these modes when using a sun lounger.

11. Retainers. They are located on runners designed for swinging, they fix the chaise lounge in a stationary state.

The frame (or whatever it is replaced with) and the cover are in all models of the chaise lounge, the rest of its parts may be missing.

Baby safety is very important!

Under no circumstances should your child be left unattended in the sun lounger. Therefore, my daughter who was born in a sun lounger was with me when I cooked in the kitchen, cleaned the corridor, ironed the linen in the living room, took a shower in the bathroom. For reliability, I put the chaise lounge on the floor and occasionally on the sofa when I myself was on it.

The chaise longue served us from 2 daughters weeks to 7 months. Then the daughter, with violent cries, began to express her unwillingness to be strapped in a deck chair, and he went to serve another baby and his mother.
