    "Our second is a much better sleeper, and I think a lot of it is due to being able to settle him to sleep so easily in the hammock, rather than in our arms."

What is the age range for the baby hammock?

There is no specific age range for a baby hammock because every baby is so different. The baby hammock is recommended for newborns, but as your baby grows, they will begin to wriggle more and more, and eventually roll themselves over, sit up etc. This is when you have to pay close attention, and as soon as the child starts to be able to sit up, roll over or pull themselves up, then the baby hammock can no longer be used safely as there is a risk of suffocation if the baby manages to roll over. On average this happens at around 6 months of age.
