9 magical, must-have bouncers your baby will love
Bouncy, happy babies...
Babies love the feeling of being rocked, mainly because a rocking sensation is soothing for your little one and provides them with a comforting feeling of being back in the womb.
It’s for this very reason why new parents quickly realise a baby bouncer is a must-have item. Also known as a baby rocker, these handy contraptions allow parents to comfort their little one without cradling them in their arms the whole time.
Some of the best ones even have toy bars, adjustable head rests, three-point harnesses, in-built nursery rhymes and so much more.
Here are our favourites…
