This is a sponsored post on behalf of The Baby Sitter Infant Development Cushion. My opinions are my own and by no means influenced by any other part.
The Baby Sitter Infant Development Cushion is a new multi-use product that was designed to provide babies with the right tools to help them develop their gross motor skills. Since the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that babies sleep on their backs, parents (and I include myself), have the tendency to neglect the very important tummy time.
Tummy time helps babies with the development of their neck, trunk and core muscles, and by not exercising these muscles, the baby’s motor skills like sitting, crawling and of course walking can be affected.
Diane Gowaty has partnered with Slickview Studios to address this common problem with the launch of the Baby Sitter™ infant development cushion.
This very unique product is shaped like a doughnut with a flat surface and promotes the baby’s gross motor development skills.
How? The Baby Sitter Infant Development Cushion, features a cushion that is about 5” tall and about 24” in diameter with a cutout in the middle of the circle which is exactly where you will position your baby. When the baby is placed in the middle of the Baby Sitter, they are encouraged to kick and push which is a great way to exercise and building up strength on the neck, trunk and core muscles. The Baby Sitter Infant Development cushion comes with three round inserts to add to the center of the Baby sitter in different stages.
These handy cushions can be used as a changing surface and can also be used for tummy time, and even a play mat.
I love the concept and versatility of the product and I must add that I have not seen anything quite the same as this product which I must also add is made of fire retardant foam and can be purchased for $60.00 at the Baby Sitter website.
You also have the option to buy a gift set that includes, the Baby Sitter, your choice of removable and washable fabric covers (they have some really cute prints), and it also includes all three inserts for $85.00 which is the best deal (by getting the gift set, you are pretty much getting the inserts for free). The fabric covers retail for $25.00 and you can purchase additional ones. The inserts have a retail price of $12.00 for all three inserts (you can choose to buy one, two or all three).
Certainly a very interesting and handy product for parents of infants.
