Our baby hammock: An object steeped in history

In many Latin American countries, the cradle hammock allows mothers to watch over their children while rocking them, away from the ground and pets. An experience impossible to reproduce with traditional cradles. Several studies have shown that rocking the hammock stimulates the baby's vestibular system, helping to strengthen their balance and coordination.

The “Cocoon Dreams” cradle hammock: A reassuring cocoon for baby

The cradle hammock is mainly useful during the first months of baby's life. This restricted space recalls the safety of intrauterine life, offering a reassuring cocoon that soothes the little one. In Latin America, the hammock has always been used for indigenous babies. More surprisingly, for more than 20 years, mini hammocks have been used in hospital incubators to improve neonatal care. This provides premature babies with a calming environment that promotes their well-being and development. This approach, notably adopted in Brazil, recreates the fetal position, reducing stress and stimulating the senses of premature infants, while becoming increasingly widespread throughout the region.

The solidity of the infrastructure of the baby hammock

When we talk about hammocks and cradle, the essential element is the robustness of the frame. It will provide secure and stable support to guarantee the baby's safety. The large opening of the cradle hammock provides a clear view for the baby. It also promotes optimal air circulation to create an ultra pleasant environment. For added stability, we recommend our hammock chair suspension kit.

A relaxed baby for better sleep

The Cocoon Dreams model is a high-end cradle hammock, specially designed to help babies fall asleep more easily. Its gentle, rhythmic movement imitates rocking in amniotic fluid, to provide comfort almost similar to that felt in the maternal womb. This has the effect of calming the baby, reducing stress and crying. It is particularly effective for babies with irregular sleep patterns, as it regulates their circadian rhythm and improves their sleep cycle. But the hammock also has other benefits for mothers.
