Baby nests have become a popular choice for many new parents seeking a safe, snug environment for their babies. These nests are not just for adorable Instagram moments - they are versatile and play an important role in the daily lives of families. To explore how our baby nests are used in everyday life, we asked our customers for their real-life experiences. It seems many of you have incorporated our baby nests into your daily parenting routines in more ways than we could imagine. Below are some tips from our customers.
Morning Snuggles and Breakfast: For many parents, mornings begin with a peaceful moment thanks to the baby nest. Sarah from London shares, "Mornings used to be chaotic at first, with having to get two older children ready for school as well. But now, I place Emma in her baby nest next to the kitchen while I prepare breakfast for the rest of the family. She loves watching me from her cosy spot, and I love that she's safe and content."
Mid-Morning Nap: Baby nests are designed to offer comfort anywhere in your home. Jane from Bristol shares, "After some morning playtime, I can easily move the nest to wherever I will be, allowing Max to take his mid-morning nap. It’s lightweight and portable, letting me create a familiar sleeping space anywhere in the house, while I carry on with my daily chores and keep him close by."
Outdoor Time: Baby nests are not confined to indoor use. Many parents take them outside too. Lucy from Manchester explains, "When we're lucky with the weather, I take the baby nest to our garden, where Sophie can enjoy the fresh air. It’s her favourite part of the day...well, sometimes she just drifts off, but I guess that's a good sign."
Afternoon Activities: As the day progresses, the baby nest continues to serve as a secure spot for supervised play and interaction. Anita from Cardiff says, "I also use the baby nest for tummy time in the afternoon. It’s soft and supports Alfie as he strengthens his muscles."
Evening Bath and Wind Down: Evenings are all about winding down, and baby nests help create a calm environment and a safe place to pamper your baby before bed. Chloe from Edinburgh describes, "I line a towel over the nest to place Oliver there after his bath - it's a cosy, safe place and it helps him relax while I prepare him for bedtime, sometimes attempting a baby massage too. Sometimes, I just let Oliver lie in his baby nest while I read him a story. It’s our special routine that helps him wind down for the night."
These are just a few of the ideas we received from you, and we are genuinely impressed and pleased to see how many ways our baby nests assist in the day-to-day parenting journey. As much as we don't recommend using baby nests (of any brand) for overnight sleep (in accordance with official safer sleep advice), we love to see that baby nests are a must-have. Whether you're at home or in the garden, a baby nest might just be the helping hand you need.
