BabyBjorn

BabyBjorn is the brand parents tend to arrive at after somebody tells them to buy less. The Swedish range is deliberately short, built around a handful of products that start in the newborn weeks, keep working through toilet training, and are still worth passing on afterwards.

A Swedish Range Built Around Buying Less

BabyBjorn has spent decades making a small number of things properly rather than filling a catalogue. Carriers, bouncers, travel cots, potties and feeding gear are most of it, and the thinking behind the range is that a few pieces that genuinely work will outlast a nursery full of near-misses. 

That shows up in the detail. Fabrics are machine washable, frames fold without tools, and most items cover a span of years rather than months, which is why these turn up second-hand in good condition so often. 

The small things follow the same thinking. Bibs come in two-packs rather than singles, the carriers each have a bib cut to fit them, and even the luggage tag is sized for a nappy bag rather than a suitcase.

The Travel Cot That Goes Up in One Movement

The BabyBjorn travel cot is the piece most families come looking for, and the reason is the setup. The Travel Cot Light goes up and down in a single movement, weighs 6kg, and comes with its own mattress and carry bag, so the portacot in the boot is not a job you dread at the other end. 

It suits newborn to around three years, with breathable mesh sides you can see through from across the room. A fitted sheet made for it is sold separately, and the rest of our travel cots range sits alongside it if you want to compare.

Where BabyBjorn Fits Into Your Day

• The newborn weeks: theBabyBjorn carriers cover birth onwards, with the Harmony Mesh rated from 3.2kg to 15kg and offering inward front, outward front and back carrying as your baby grows into it. The Mini is the simpler option for the first months, and the Hold sits between the two.

• Somewhere to put them down: theBabyBjorn bouncers rock on your baby's own movement with no batteries and no power lead. The Bouncer Bliss has three height positions and converts into a children's chair, so it stays useful to around two.

• Toilet training: theBabyBjorn potty range runs from the Potty Chair with its high backrest and removable inner potty through to the Toilet Trainer and Step Stool for the stage after it.
