Nap Nanny
what parents are saying
recalled but who cares, just dont leave baby alone and be sure to strap them in. (May 13, 2013)

As of June 2014, SIX babies have died while in a Nap Nanny; you can learn more in this article. While there are plenty of parents on weeSpring who love it, especially for babies with reflux, we urge parents who still own a Nap Nanny to not hand it down to another family. The Fisher-Price Rock N Play and BabyBjorn Babysitter Balance are both good alternatives.

Although recalled, the Nap Nanny has been great with both of my kids. Obviously it isn't something you want to use with a child who is unattended. Even my 2 year old still loves napping in it! Jul 29, 2020

I know this seat was recalled but when used properly it is a life saver. We always used it on the floor with baby buckled in. The angle is just right and baby loved napping in it with us near by. Mar 21, 2019

I was given this as a hand-me-down. I didn't see the need for it at first and it sat in the closet. OMG I LOVE this thing! Used it for a good 6-7 months! It gave me some freedom. Jul 28, 2016

We used this all the time and still do. It's been great for when she was sick, while lounging. My baby is comfortable in it and loves it Jan 14, 2016

Love!! Only reason recalled is because people stupidly put it in the bed! Aug 26, 2014
Sad that this was recalled.. Both of my babies loved it. May 17, 2014
I totally second what Melissa said about this. So helpful, esp when baby is gassy or has minor reflux and cannot lie flat to sleep. Apr 19, 2014
There is a new one out there called "daydreamer sleeper" that is essentially the safer version of the napnanny. Higher sides, and super soft n comfy. Naptime with my LO wouldn't be the same w/o it!!!! Mar 25, 2014
I know it was recalled, but it's because parents didn't know how to use it properly. I love this and really was awesome for the first few weeks. Mar 24, 2014

Loved this! It was the only thing my daughter would sleep on. I used it very carefully only for naps while i monitored. I would have been great for night time use but I never wanted to risk it. Feb 07, 2014
I used this a lot... I didn't have any problems. Dec 13, 2013

I loved this item. I know it has been recalled, but I feel that when used according to instructions it is an excellent product. My daughter had reflux, and I could not have lived w/o this. Dec 02, 2013

This is great if you are able watch the baby when they are in it! My son loves it and can nap for HOURS in there! Nov 04, 2013
Still love it. Oct 31, 2013
Glad I got it before the recall! A necessity with a newborn when showering! Oct 20, 2013
Greatest thing ever a real shame parents used incorrectly!!! Sep 07, 2013
This is the only way my baby slept when he had acid reflux. Jun 14, 2013
I know this product was recalled, but it saved us from countless sleepless nights due to baby reflux. With the Nap Nanny, baby was able to sleep through the night at 3 months. And we let him sleep in it until 7 months, when he outgrew it. Jun 03, 2013

This was a lifesaver for my daughter who had severe acid reflux. She would only sleep in this recliner from about 4 months until she was 9 months old. Jan 10, 2013
For colicky babies who need to be slightly inclined to sleep it's a lifesaver Dec 01, 2012

This is an amazing invention, so sad to see it recalled. If used correctly, you will have NO problems with this. Use it on the floor, use common sense :) Dec 23, 2015

Wasn't recalled until I had used with my first but if used on floor with lap belts I thought it was great for newborn. Soft, portable and on an incline so great after feeding. Jun 10, 2013
recalled but who cares, just dont leave baby alone and be sure to strap them in. May 13, 2013
- Melissa P.

Though this product was recalled I find it very helpful when on the floor and the baby is buckled in (esp before they move much). Its soft, at an angle which is good post eating, and easy to move from room to room. Ive enjoyed it if used carefully Jan 09, 2013
