Conditions Amby Helps

Colic - Amby's womb-like design and natural motion is comforting to babies with colic symptoms who have trouble sleeping. The hammock's ability to bounce also eases any stomach cramping or gas pains baby might be experiencing.

Infant reflux - Amby Baby Beds can be adjusted to the incline baby sleeps at best - which is crucial for babies suffering with acid reflux. In addition, the hammock's rocking motion sooths indigestion and lulls the baby to sleep.

Premature babies - Babies born prematurely crave a womb-like environment and very often must be held much of the time in their first months. The Amby provides this safe environment in addition to a natural motion that mimics that "being held" feeling. Preemies are also commonly diagnosed with colic or reflux (or both) which the Amby also treats.

Restless sleepers - Babies who tend to thrash or have trouble getting to sleep respond well to the Amby's natural motion. Many babies learn quickly how to create motion by moving their arms or legs, which soothes them and rocks them back to sleep.

Short nappers - While baby may stir during their daytime naps, the Amby responds to those movements and keeps your baby sleeping soundly for longer periods of time. The Amby's portability is also allows you to keep the napping baby nearby.

Longer Sleep Duration

The Amby Motion Bed is specially designed to promote longer and a more restful sleep for your baby. Parents often find that their baby is restless and cries during the night. The Amby’s design addresses many of the reasons why baby may be unable to get a good night’s sleep.

Babies love to be swaddled - it gives them a feeling of security. The hammock provides the natural elements baby experienced for over nine months in the maternal womb. Babies are born into a world that is unlike anything they have experienced inside the womb. They crave closeness and they crave motion.

Conventional cribs are firm and flat and provide little sense of security for baby. The Amby motion bed gives baby a slightly upright, soft, curved and contoured surface that gives baby the same snuggled feeling as your loving arms.

A baby will usually awaken slowly and peacefully in the Amby, soothed by the gentle bouncing of the hammock initiated by baby’s own small movements, instead of the abrupt arousal often experienced in a crib.

In fact, we have seen babies go from irritably crying to peacefully smiling when parents stop by the Amby office with a restless sleeper or fussy baby and mom places her child into the Amby.

Helps Alleviate Flathead

In the early months, babies are prone to developing a flat area in the back of the head due to the disproportionate weight of baby’s head on a flat surface. Because the Amby allows baby to sleep in a slightly upright position, much of the baby’s head weight is more evenly distributed to the rest of the body. The short answer to this is YES, the hammock will go a long way in addressing this problem.

The problem with cribs, bassinets and cots is that they have a hard flat surface. Practically all South East Asian and East Asian countries sleep their babies on their backs (a cultural thing). It appears that babies who sleep on flat hard surfaces e.g. the Japanese futon end up with flat heads. On the contrary, babies in South East Asia, particularly the Malays, who sleep their babies (on their backs) in sarong hammocks, have round heads

The Amby helps alleviate flathead under certain conditions and not all conditions can be helped. Premature babies may need to seek professional consultation.

Provides a warm swaddled environment

Babies love to be cuddled and swaddled, and their favorite place to sleep is often snuggled close in mom’s or dad’s loving arms. When it is time to lay your sleeping baby down, the Amby’s soft bed and sides keep baby warm and snug throughout the night, while its breathable design promotes airflow to keep baby comfortable in warmer weather as well.

The movement of the Amby makes the transition from a parent’s arms to sleeping in the hammock effortless. Instead of dropping the baby on a crib’s hard surface and hoping baby stays asleep, the Amby moves easily while you settle baby in the hammock, often without baby even realizing the change.

Flexible Sleeping Arrangement

The Amby fits easily in any room of the house and can be moved from room to room wherever you need baby to sleep.

A corner of the living room or kitchen is a perfect place for baby to nap nearby.

The hammock bed can slide right up next to you bed so you can easily reach baby during the night when you need to bring baby into bed with you.

The bed sits 12 inches off the ground so baby can easily see you while you gently bounce the Amby to lull baby back to sleep.

Safe

The Amby is a safe place for your baby to sleep. The product has been thoroughly tested to both national and international standards by the world’s leading testing agencies. The product has been safety tested by the Juvenile Product Manufacturers Association (JPMA) and has undergone clinical nursing studies in the US, measuring levels of baby comfort and irritability in the hospital setting.

Amby Baby Beds encourages back sleeping according to the universally accepted 'Back to Sleep' campaign. Pediatricians agree that back sleeping can greatly reduce the risk of SIDS. The Amby Baby is also made of breathable 100% cotton, creating a safe environment for your baby.

When you first see the Amby Hammock, it will probably catch your attention since you have never seen anything quite like it before. You may wonder how your baby would feel and look sleeping in the Amby. This is common and we recommend that you conduct your own reading and assessment  - we are confident that you will become a believer because of the product’s safety features and benefits to your baby.

Please refer to the Amby’s Awards and Tests tab for more information about the products safety design and tests conducted.

Great air ventilation

High quality material

The Amby is made of the highest quality materials that will survive the wear and tear of baby after baby:

• The Hammock sling is made of 100% cotton that is durable, breathable, and shrink resistant.
• A two-inch foam pad provides a soft and stable sleeping surface within the hammock.  This provides a distinct advantage over traditional sheet-type baby hammocks which are too confining. 
• The sturdy steel frame won’t bend, rust, or lose it’s supportive durability over the years. 

The final design of the Amby Hammock has been perfected over the years since its early beginnings in Australia. Amby hires and contracts with our own people to finish the final assembly and packing of your hammock before shipment. This way we are confident the product we send you has passed a total quality inspection before use. The hammock fabric is sewn tight and inspected several times before final assembly. Each metal tube has been sandblasted and painted with a high gloss off-white gleaming finish.

The spring and cross bar are made with heavy metal and steel. The spring is so durable, it won’t stretch or lose its strength over the years. 

Each hammock comes with its own dark green canvas carrying bag so you can travel with your baby wherever you need to go.

The product is made to high quality standards with only adult labor and proper working conditions. We have personally visited our manufacturing partners and our own facilities in Shanghai. Our partners take great pride in providing this product to you while knowing it is being made for your baby.

Please visit our website often. We will soon take you on a virtual tour of Shanghai where each Amby is produced to your satisfaction.
