Babies might be small but they need lots of stuff and attention. There is no better gift for a busy mom (and her baby) than giving her something that will make life easier. Giving mom and her little one the gear they need or upgrading what they have, will give them more quality time to spend as a family. From a compact stroller to a musical soother, to a Dockatot Grand, we’ve rounded up thoughtful and useful holiday gifts that will make life easier and sweeter for mom and baby.
Give new mama’s and their babies the most precious gift of all this holiday season…the gift of sleep. Never before has there been a more innovative item ideal for little ones to rest, nap, and play than the Dockatot Grand. If your littlest love has spent their first several months in the Dockatot Deluxe, or if you have simply been struggling to get him or her down to sleep, the Grand is a must-have this holiday season. Perfect for co-sleeping, nap time, and even playtime throughout the house or taking to grandparents for the holidays, your Dockatot will go with you and baby on all of your adventures this season.
All new moms know the safest place for baby to sleep is on his or her back. Unfortunately, this can make nighttime a struggle as little ones frequently startle and wake when you try and lay them flat on their back. With a Dockatot these problems are solved. Featuring curved padded sides and a flat supportive base, babies feel snug, safe, and secure when laid on his or her back in a Dockatot making startling and waking less frequent. The Dockatot allows baby to relax and remain in a state of sleep for longer giving everyone a good nights rest.
Perfect for older babies, 9-36 months, or even those transitioning from a crib into a bed, the Dockatot Grand’s rolled sides keep your little one comfortable, help him or her settle more easily, and prevent him or her from falling out of bed. With its oversized design, the Grand is also ideal for lounging, cuddling, storytime, and a whole host of other indoor, quiet time activities this winter. Allow everyone in the family to have a safe, happy, peaceful holiday season with a Dockatot Grand.
