Maxi-Cosi Cassia Swing, Electric Baby Swing for Newborns with Music, From Birth Until Approximately 6 Months, 0-9 kg, Essential Graphite

Product Information

The Cassia simply activates the swing when it recognizes your baby needs some extra comfort until you get there.

In addition to controlling the swing from the front panel, you can download the 4Moms app on your Apple or Android device and control everything remotely.Operating the swing was intuitive and simple; the front touch panel has a power button, a swing intensity button (from 0/off to 5), a timer button (press it to set an auto-off timer of 8, 15, or 30 minutes), a play/pause button to cycle through the various sounds (e. Its 360⁰ rotation helps you maintain eye contact with your baby – because we know you can never take your eyes off of them. The seat can be rotated so the baby can swing side to side or front to back, and it can use 5 D batteries or plugs into the wall.

In the first 3 months your baby will be getting to know you and bonding, so hearing your voice and having eye-contact thanks to the 360° seat rotation is key.

There is a volume control for the music and sounds, and an auto-off timer for the mobile, music, and sounds (20 minutes). The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and recent scientific data suggest that: 1) infants under 4 months of age should only use the most reclined swing position, 2) parents should check swing safety to prevent tipping and folding, 3) shoulder straps should be used if the incline comes up more than 50 degrees, 4) toys on mobiles should be out of reach, 5) always check weight limits before placing a baby in a swing, 6) the seat should stay relatively flat during swinging to prevent tipping, and 7) if your baby falls asleep in the swing, you should move him or her to a firm sleeping surface (bassinet, crib). I gave it to my daughter Laura Hardwick to review and test with her 3 week old baby, my gorgeous granddaughter Freya.
