Graco Baby Delight Swing £39.99 @ Smyths ToysI've written about this Graco Baby Delight Swing before - it was £39.99 before at Smyths Toys and is once again, it was more expensive everywhere else before and still is - Amazon and Kiddicare are both selling it for £47, it's £59.99 with Boots and Tesco Direct.

If you've already had a baby then you'll know how soothing motion can be for your baby, so anything that rocks, bounces or swings is an absolute must, in my humble parenting opinion.

Rockers and baby chairs that bounce are all well and good but there are times when you can't sit and be the rocking mechanism all day long, which is where something like this Graco Baby Delight swing can come to the rescue as it does the swinging for you.

It's suitable from birth and comes with a detachable padded toy bar with two soft toys.  It features a 5-point safety harness, three reclining positions and has two swing speeds.

The padded seat cover is removable and machine washable and the Graco Baby Delight swing is compact enough to make it portable enough to move around the house or take out and about with you.

It requires two C size 2 batteries, which aren't included, but delivery is free; hurrah!

Travel Baby Swing £44.99 @ Babies R Us

Travel Baby Swing £44.99 @ Babies R UsBabies R Us have a little bit of money taken off this Bright Starts Travel Baby Swing; it's £44.99 now instead of £54.99

When you have a baby in the house anything like a baby swing, rocking seat or baby bouncer is a must.

But what happens when you go visiting or you're out and about?

If you're lucky you'll find lots of willing bodies to hold your baby and wander around with them if they get upset; or YOU can do it but sometimes you just want to be able to put then down somewhere safe, so they can rock off to sleep and not leave anyone holding the baby.

This Bright Starts Travel Baby Swing looks like it could be just the job.

It's compact and portable, features and open top design to allow easy access to your baby.  It plays melodies, has a removeable toy bar along with its own swinging motion.

The swinging motion is actually 'Truespeed' technology which helps to automatically recognise the baby’s weight and adjusts the swing’s performance to maintain a consistent swing speed as baby grows; things weren't like this when my eldest two were small!

It has a five point safety harness, the swinging motion has three timer settings too, the melodies have volume control - it really is quite an amazing little travel baby swing; people who already have one certainly seem to think so...

"This swing is defintalely a god send, my 6-week old son loves it and will fall asleep quite quickly as he loves to be rocked... its so lightweight and small doesnt take up much room like other swings I've seen; ideal for taking on holidays or to grandparents house etc"

Happy Swinging!

Outdoor Baby Swing £67.99 @ Mothercare

Outdoor Baby Swing £67.99 @ MothercareMothercare have a great deal on this outdoor baby swing; it's original price was £99.99 but now you can snap one up for £67.99.

It's a universally accepted fact that everyone likes to swing no matter how old or young they are; babies find swinging particularly soothing.

I had one of these swings 16 years ago when my eldest was tiny - except our swing seat (which was exactly the same) was hung from one of the mature trees in the garden; I have a picture of my daughter looking very sleepy in it when she was nine months old or so.

This outdoor baby swing comes with a very sturdy wooden frame (it's ok, you don't need a tree); the timber is FSC certified (so is from a sustainable source) and comes with a five year manufacturer's warranty against wood rot and insect damage.

The maximum user weight  for the outdoor baby swing is 25kgs and it's assembled dimensions are L120 x W104 x H124cm; you should also allow about a 2m perimeter around it too, just to make sure everyone stays safe.

This is an online exclusive to Mothercare so you won't find this outdoor baby swing in any of their stores and you can't arrange for instore collection; there is good news however, home delivery is FREEEE.

Happy swinging!
