Questions regarding Baby Hammock:

The recommended weight for each baby hammock is different, the recommended weight is located in each product information.  Even though there is a recommended weight for each hammock, if your baby knows how to turn over, please make sure that there is an adult supervision.

If your baby does not know how to turn over, it will be fine.  If you are worried, please make sure that you are around your baby when he/ she is in the hammock.  Also, please use a pillow beneath the hammock if you feel safer.

So far, there is no SIDS reported in baby hammocks reported.  Typically, the shape of the hammock/ cradle forces the baby to lie on their back and thus preventing SIDS.  Also, for babies who knows how to turn or toddlers can use the baby cradles with the Sarong netting which has small holes allow plenty of ventilation.  Lastly, the safety string that is provided can hold up more than 30lbs and therefore makes the hanging of the baby hammock really safe.

Some hammock comes with additional fitted sheets, some do not.  We do sell them as accessories but if not, we recommend you to use a receiving blanket which works just as good.

We recommended babies to be in the baby hammock till 8 months but if you feel comfortable, your baby can sleep in it till he/ she is 2-3 years old.  Babies especially in South East Asia sleep in baby cradle/ hammock till they are at least 3 years old for their nap time.  Though, we strongly advise adult supervision once your baby starts to turn over.

The baby hammocks/ cradles can be used day or night.  The computerized cradle has the capability to automatically rock your baby up to 45 hours straight with the timer.  We all understand that we will do whatever it takes to make sure that our baby sleeps and there is absolutely no reason why the baby hammock and cradle cannot be used at night.

The baby hammock especially the baby cradle with the sarong netting actually helps prevent flat head as it moulds the shape of the baby.  The reason is because the hammock is created in such a way to follow baby's shape and thus do not prevent flat head.

Different people have different needs, the same as babies.  Some babies like to be gently rock all the time.  Some do not like being rocked.  Some prefers to be in soft mattress inside the hammock and some prefers to sleep in the sarong netting because there are holes and allow breeze air to flow in.  Each of the hammocks that we carry have their own benefits and specialty.  Please visit this page to find out more regarding the differences between the different baby hammocks we carry.
