When the birth of your baby is announced, you will start thinking about the basic equipment. You think about what clothes, furniture and sleeping arrangements you would like to have for your baby. Many parents opt for a bassinet – but what exactly is a bassinet? Why is it useful and what are the benefits of a bassinet for parents and baby? We have put together a few basics for you.
Especially at the beginning, many babies find it difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep on their own. Mom or dad’s arm is often the coziest place for this. And this is where the spring cradle comes into play: the up and down movements of the spring cradle remind your baby of its time in the womb and gently rock it to sleep. This provides a sense of security and safety. The cradle basically replaces your arm and your baby can fall asleep peacefully and take a nap.
You can use the cradle from the first day of life. This is the best way to encourage your baby’s resting and sleeping times.
The spring cradle is a special type of cradle: it consists of a large piece of fabric that is held apart by a spacer board. Your baby lies in the cradle on a mattress lined with organic virgin wool.
However, the suspension of the cradle is crucial. The special thing about a spring cradle is that it is suspended because, unlike standing cradles, it does not put any permanent strain on the child’s back. Spring cradles automatically support the natural rounded posture of the child’s back.
The springs work particularly well if they are adjusted to your child’s weight. That’s why PAULI & CO has special springs for the early and later stages. This is the only way to ensure that your child has optimal swinging behavior for as long as possible. You get different springs that are based on the child’s body weight. So the cradle grows with your child! The springs are made of particularly high-quality spring steel. All other metal parts are made of first-class, rust-free stainless steel.
You can hang the cradle on a hook or attach it to a door frame with a metal clip without mounting it. There is also the option of hanging the cradle on a particularly stable and robust wooden stand. This means you always have your baby with you and are mobile. Our wooden stands made of solid wood not only guarantee an absolutely secure stand, they also match any interior style thanks to their design and warm natural wood tone.
The cradle is very light and can be easily transported when visiting friends or grandparents.
There are many different spring cradles in many different designs. All of them give your baby a feeling of security and calm. However, the cradles differ considerably in terms of the material used and the design. To ensure that your baby has an optimal sleeping environment, we find it important that all materials are natural. We have opted for cotton fabrics and a mattress lined with organic virgin wool. Natural sheep’s wool naturally ensures an optimal temperature balance and maximum comfort for your baby. You can also wash our mattresses yourself, as we use wool from a special breed of sheep that does not clump or felt so quickly.
We have opted for a fresh, Hanseatic and minimalist design so that the PAULI & CO feather cradle fits in well with your living atmosphere. The subtle colors and patterns fit well in your home.
Please make sure that your cradle is TÜV-tested and certified according to STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® Class 1. This provides you with proof of technical and chemical safety.
Although the maximum weight of the cradle has been tested at 12 kg, you should no longer use the cradle once your baby has reached an age at which it can turn and turn over on its own. You should not leave your child unattended in the cradle. Therefore, the cradle is no substitute for a proper bed and longer periods of sleep.
