Your baby should never sleep in a bouncer. However, most bouncers are rated for use from newborn stage through late infancy — usually around nine to 12 months of age. Although it’s not always realistic that a more active baby is going to want to sit in a bouncer, consider whether you can adjust the recline position or if it’s a model that’s designed to convert and grow with your baby. Are baby bouncers safe for newborns? Whether you’re a first-time parent or this isn’t your first time at the rodeo, you know that as much as you might enjoy holding your little bundle of joy, there are going to be times when you just can’t. While there’s no limit to how frequently your baby can use a bouncer, there are guidelines for how long they should be in it at a time. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), you should limit bouncer sessions to one hour. This guideline is based on research that suggests when very young children are too sedentary, it can impact health outcomes later in life. Note that their recommendation isn’t just limited to jumpers, but also applies to strollers, and even toddlers and preschoolers watching television. Can babies sleep in a baby bouncer?

My son is particularly enthralled by the brightly-coloured toy bar and its hanging rattles - though they do dangle quite close to his face and he bashes himself by tugging on them pretty often. Thankfully this is removable. Operated by a digital touch display with a built-in speaker, it plays a selection of eight sounds including white noise and classical music pieces. It’s also Bluetooth-enabled, so you can send through your own playlists from your phone. We used the pre-loaded sounds at first but the speaker quality, while good enough for me, didn’t quite measure up to his father’s very strict standards.This is the bouncer I most wanted to get into myself; it looks so cosy and cocoon-like. If Jasper could talk, I’m fairly sure he’d agree - he never protests when I put him in it. It’s perfect for reflux because it puts the baby in a more upright position than the others I tested, but it can also be reclined for naps. There are a range of reasons why you might prioritize a portable bouncer. You might want to move it around the house, take it with you when you travel, or just store it out of sight when it’s not in use. You’re going to want to look for models that fold flat or come with a cover to keep it clean when not in use. Additional features Bouncers are an ideal part of your baby’s gear that can keep them occupied when you need to accomplish a task or soothe a fussy baby. But when shopping for this essential item, there are a few things to keep in mind. Weight limit It’s not necessary to spend a premium price to get a quality item with the features you need. We’ve highlighted a range of options from budget friendly to median to luxury pricing. But within each range, you should be able to find a bouncer that offers a safe place to keep your baby along with value added features like vibrations, sounds, and mobiles or toy bars. Safety regulations

As soon as we first slipped then-two-month-old Jasper, who was fussing, into the Baby Bjorn, he settled down and eventually nodded off. At seven months it’s still the one he seems to be most comfortable in. The jersey cotton fabric is super soft but supportive and comes in a wide array of colours and patterns. I also like the simplicity of the front panel which secures him - no fiddly straps over his shoulders to wrestle with. It is always safest for your baby to sleep on a firm, flat, waterproof mattress clear of loose blankets and pillows,” Millie says. “A bouncer can be used in the day for supervised naps but is not recommended for long stretches of sleep and definitely not for overnight sleeping.” Is a bouncer better than a swing? What really sets this one apart is its multi-functionality. It can be used as a manual bouncer for when they’re small (with the newborn inlay) then eventually, with the harness removed, a comfy chair for toddlers up to the age of three. Is your product defective and the manual offers no solution? Go to a Repair Café for free repair services. Extra options like vibrations, music, and even mobiles or toy bars are nice additional features that can turn your bouncer into an invaluable tool to keep your little one occupied and content. Often, these are standard features that most major brands include in their models. So, you don’t have to view these options as a splurge. BudgetI am a die hard Baby Bjorn fan,” Millie Poppins says. “There is a reason they are so popular. I find the design the most intuitive. It’s easy to wash the cover, lightweight and simple to fold flat with a variety of height settings. It also provides a really lovely rhythmic bounce and an older baby who is squirming will be able to set it in motion themselves.” When should a baby start and finish using a bouncer? My son Jasper is now seven months old. When I was pregnant, it never occurred to me to buy a bouncy chair along with the other essentials I needed ( car seat, pram, high chair etc). But I must say the effect has been transformative. I like to use them from birth,” Millie says. “Most brands have a weight limit, so how long the bouncer can be used would be dependent on when your baby reaches that weight. Once a baby starts to sit up (around six to eight months), I find that many no longer enjoy being reclined in the bouncer as they are ready to see the world from a different angle.

I do sometimes use one for weaning, however. When a baby is ready to start tasting different fruit and veg but doesn’t have the core strength just yet to sit in a highchair, you can use your bouncer on the highest incline to support them whilst feeding smooth solids. How long can a baby sleep in a bouncer? This was my favourite aesthetically; a gorgeous unit that blends into the room like a piece of furniture and is designed to mimic a leaf swaying in the wind. Somewhat ironically it’s actually the heaviest, so while it feels sturdy it’s not particularly easy to move around the house or travel with you. While they’re not the same thing, you’ll find that baby bouncers, swings, and jumpers often appear in the same category or aisle when you’re browsing online or visiting a store. But even though they can all serve a similar purpose, they’re different in how they function. This swing takes your baby from newborn, with a soft insert and three-point harness; to toddler, with these removed, to be used as a seat. With no batteries or cords, the Nuna Leaf’s gentle side-to-side motion lasts for several minutes before you have to give it a nudge again, unlike most other non-motorised swings on the market which require near-constant pushing.

Usually there is a minimum weight rating that tends to be anywhere from six to eight pounds. Always make sure that your baby is securely strapped into the bouncer and don’t leave them unattended. However, once your baby has mastered sitting up, it’s time to retire your bouncer because it poses a tipping risk. How long can a baby be in a baby bouncer?
