While there are several safety measures parents and caregivers should follow when using a baby swing, perhaps the most important one is to supervise their baby when they are in the swing. “[While in a swing], babies need constant supervision the same way they would in a bathtub,” says Ben Hoffman, MD, CPST-I, FAAP, professor of pediatrics at Oregon Health & Science University and president-elect of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP).

Tray – our tests found that the bigger the tray, the better. Some trays include a sippy cup holder, while others come with removable tray inserts – making cleaning up much easier. A tray that's adjustable and detachable is a useful feature to look out for, as it will allow your baby plenty of extra space in the high chair as he or she grows.

To begin testing, we gathered a team of 10 Verywell Family editors (most of whom are parents) at the Verywell Testing Lab in New York City. We evaluated each baby swing according to the following key criteria: In our experience, assembling and using this swing was so intuitive that it required little to no reference to the manufacturer’s instructions. The buttons that operate the swing were self-explanatory, although we would have liked to see a simpler way to change the music rather than pushing a button to cycle through every song. When using the timer, we recommend reading the manufacturer’s instructions so that you understand how the lights correspond to the time intervals. The hanging chair is suspended off the ground using chains; these can support the weight of two people. They’re not length adjustable, but the swing seat is still comfortable for people over 6 foot to sit on.Some of the best garden swing seats have adjustable canopies. These can be positioned as needed to offer maximum shade from the sun throughout the day. This isn’t a feature that is available on all swing seats, but might be useful if get a lot of sun in your garden. Safety and Stability: Before placing your baby in a swing, you should carefully read the manufacturer’s instructions to make sure you assembled it correctly. We also recommend referring to the owner’s manual to familiarize yourself with the swing’s weight and age limit. Harness – most high chairs have a five-point harness, but some have a three-point one (so it fits around the waist and between the legs, but has no shoulder straps). You'll likely see a solid crotch bar (also known as a pommel) to help prevent your baby from slipping forward out of the chair.

Ben Hoffman, MD, CPST-I, FAAP, professor of pediatrics at Oregon Health & Science University and president-elect of the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) When it’s time to start weaning, a baby highchair or booster your little one loves can help make the change in routine fun. Bright colours and playful patterns can spark baby’s imagination, while classic wooden highchairs blend in beautifully with modern kitchens and dining rooms. The classic designs are generally suited to two adults, but there are models which can seat up to four people or more. In terms of design, this swing has several unique features. The first is the seat cover, which was super soft and felt like it was made from minky fabric. The second is the optional bug net, which although we didn’t test, we could see how this would be useful for parents who want to bring the swing outside in the summer months—which would be a breeze because the swing is pretty compact and lightweight. If you’re after something a little different compared to traditional bench swing seats, the Outsunny Garden Swing Chair is a great choice. This swing chair has two individual swinging chairs that are free to move independently of each other. It’s the best garden swing set if you want two individual swinging seats.Bluetooth-enabled Swing plays your child's favourite music from your phone or select from preloaded white noise, heartbeat and classical music sounds Made from Textolene fabric, this chair is easy to clean and has good weather resistance. Textolene is strong, fade resistant and doesn’t get too hot. The fabric is stretched over a powder-coated steel frame so it can be left outside year-round. There are no cushions, so there’s nothing that needs to be brought inside if it rains, but the fabric canvas is softer than a hard seat. Even if a swing seat seems to ‘withstand’ more than its recommended capacity, exceeding the limit can result in wear and damage and should be avoided. While the bouncer portion wasn’t the lightest, we think a parent who is recovering from childbirth could carry it without trouble, especially because it’s equipped with a handle. Just be sure not to carry the bouncer while your baby is in it and only use the bouncer on the floor. Using this swing was easy to do, too, because the dials and switches weren’t fancy and felt very straightforward.
