We have this machine, fits under a pram or crib..(or a seat), which rocks babies to sleep. It's ultra safe and ultra useful, as in the case of babies withdrawing from substance abuse, who benefit from that rocking motion. Frees up a set of nursing hands too!
Just curious if any of you guys use it too? It's a fab machine and I would recommend it!

Never heard of it, but it sounds awesome. We have one swing seat and one vibrating seat that were donated to the unit by a couple of the nurses.
I still say whatever nurse invents an automatic butt-patter is going to die a gazillionaire.

Where I used to work we had a cradle called a Nature's Cradle that rocked back and forth. It was nice, but low to the ground. Not sure why they stopped using them. They were great for fussy babies.
I want to invent a butt-patter for sure! LOL

We have those side to side rockers...we love them. They are a nice oval shape and we can easily get the older vented kids in there and secure their OETs without much fuss! They love it!
