Paradise Hammocks are child's play!

1. A means to soothe an agitated baby
2. A great toy to play all kinds of imaginary games such as Pirates
3. An extra bed, which can be set up and packed away in minutes.

Please note: we only recommend the child size hammock for up to 5 years of age.

Hammocks in Latin America have been used for thousands of years to calm a weary child and send them off to their parent's favourite country; sleepy land! The gentle swaying and reassuring envelope of the hammock creates an ideal environment for a young baby trying to relax into unconsciousness.

Traditional string hammocks have caused alarm in the states, because of horror stories of babies becoming entwined in the hammock; however a Paradise Hammock is made from a solid sheet of Parachute Silk, which is a semi-porous fabric; which eliminates any risk of the child becoming ensnared in the hammock or smothered by it.

However a child/babies safety is obviously the paramount issue and for this reason we recommend you read the instruction manual that we include with every Paradise Hammock sold.

Relief from the effects of Colic

Unfortunately there is no 100% solution to this miserable affliction, but the rocking motion of a hammock can help ease the discomfort experienced by young babies suffering with colic.

The rocking motion helps release the small bubbles of gas trapped in the baby's intestines. A hammock can help. Gentle massage of the stomach and lower back are probably a necessary first step to bringing relief to your baby.

Tired of being tired? If your little bundle of joy is suffering with teething or is unable to relax back into sleep after the middle of the night feed, then the rocking motion of a hammock and how it cocoons a small baby will allow you to soothe it back to sleep quickly and with much less effort than the tradition of standing and rocking them.

Please note: we only recommend the child size hammock for up to 5 years of age.

When you are standing up cradling the baby, it is sometimes difficult for the baby to get comfortable enough to drift off, not to mention your arms eventually feel like dead weights! This is especially true if you are blessed with a big baby!The baby will probably look for the reassurance of the smell of the parent, so a single size hammock allowing the parent to lie down with the baby and rock them to sleep would be more practical.

Sometimes a top/vest worn by the mother holds her scent well enough to give the baby that reassurance, if you lay that under the baby in the hammock. A hammock can be suspended in the baby's bedroom and hung to one side when not needed; only requiring one hand and 5 seconds to hook through the second wall fixing point.

We recommend once the baby has settled back into sleep that you move them back to their normal bed.

User Reviews

My girlfriend and I were given a Paradise hammock as a present by a friend before we set off on our round the world tour.We were pleased to find how small it packed up and how little space it took up in our backpack. We firstly arrived in Thailand and travelled the country extensively. Our hammock was double sized and we found it pretty easy to hang. Compared to our friends string hammock, ours was much more comfortable and very quick and easy to put up.

		Whilst travelling in Malaysia we would hang it up between a couple of palm trees during the day and then from the rafters of our hut during the evening.

Throughout Indonesia there were plenty of islands where our hammock became the perfect accessory to beach life. As a piece of travelling equipment our hammock came in useful time and time again. Anyone who is thinking of going travelling will certainly feel it's money well spent taking one along.
