FAQ
What is Cradle Cot?
Cradle Cot is a suspended, cushioned sleep insert designed to fit securely inside a standard baby cot. It creates a gentle rocking motion while maintaining structured support — combining the comfort of a cradle with the safety of a cot.
How is Cradle Cot different from a baby hammock?
Unlike traditional fabric hammocks, Cradle Cot includes a structured, supportive mattress base to promote proper spinal alignment. It is engineered for controlled, limited movement and secure cot integration — not free swinging.
Is Cradle Cot safe for my baby?
Safety is our highest priority. Cradle Cot is designed with:
- Reinforced, load-bearing suspension straps
- Multi-point secure attachment
- Controlled, low-amplitude rocking
- Breathable, non-toxic fabrics
- Even weight distribution
- Anti-tip and anti-excess sway design
- All materials are selected to comply with UK and EU infant product safety standards.
What age range is it suitable for?
Cradle Cot is designed for infants from approximately 6–36 months, depending on weight and mobility. Full usage guidance and safety instructions will be provided before delivery.
Will it fit my cot?
Cradle Cot is designed to fit most standard UK and EU full-size cots. Adjustable suspension straps allow height and tension customisation. Exact dimensions and compatibility guidelines will be shared prior to final production.
Does it replace the cot mattress?
Cradle Cot is a suspended sleep insert used within the cot. It enhances soothing comfort and motion but works in combination with the cot structure — not as a standalone bed.
How does the rocking motion work?
Cradle Cot is suspended using adjustable straps attached to the cot frame. It gently sways in response to natural baby movement or a light touch from a parent. The motion is controlled and self-dampening — it does not swing freely like a hammock.
Can it help my baby sleep longer?
Every baby is different. However, the gentle cradle-like motion may help babies settle faster, reduce startle reflex wake-ups, and feel more secure — potentially improving sleep quality.
Can it reduce back and arm strain for parents?
Yes. One of the core benefits of Cradle Cot is reducing the need for constant rocking or holding. This can help minimise back, shoulder, and arm fatigue, especially during night-time soothing.
Is it foldable or travel-friendly?
Yes. Cradle Cot is designed to fold compactly for storage or travel, making it suitable for small homes, holidays, or visits to grandparents.
What materials are used?
We prioritise low-impact and baby-safe materials, including:
- Breathable hypoallergenic fabrics
- Non-toxic foam or plant-based cushioning
- Reinforced stitching
- Eco-conscious packaging
- We are committed to responsible manufacturing.
Is it easy to clean?
Yes. The outer cover will be removable and washable. Full care instructions will be provided with the product.
Why are you launching on Kickstarter?
Kickstarter allows us to bring Cradle Cot to life with community support. It helps fund first production runs, safety certifications, and sustainable material sourcing while building a parent-driven brand.
When will I receive my Cradle Cot?
Estimated delivery timelines will be clearly outlined on the campaign page. We are working with experienced manufacturers to ensure safe and efficient production.
What if the campaign doesn’t reach its goal?
Kickstarter is all-or-nothing. If we don’t reach our funding goal, you will not be charged.
Can I cancel my pledge?
