Metro Mama & Metro Baby

By Veronica Newton

While infants bring new meaning, joy and happiness to couples – they also can bring along sleepless nights and frustration. Now new parents can turn to a sleep solution that has been around for hundreds of years and is proven to lull babies to sleep”¦

The Hushamok baby hammock is bringing peace of mind and a good night’s sleep to parents everywhere, while seamlessly merging style and functionality.

The idea of a hammock as a sleeping device came about in Latin America. It was the primary sleep apparatus for adults and children alike. The Mayans concluded, in a notion we still believe today, that the secure design of the hammock simulates the experience in the womb and the rhythmic swaying soothes crying and colicky babies.

Although somewhat pricey, Hushamok gives parents an immeasurable gift: The knowledge that their baby is sleeping safely. By swaddling the baby in the Hushamok hammock, the baby cannot roll over onto his/her stomach, helping to prevent acid reflex and SIDS.

Hushamok is sold unassembled. However, with a few clicks and snaps, a century-old tradition is turned into a modern Hushamok. In the Hushamok Experience, customers receive a convenient carrying case (making road trips a bit easier), poly-filled hypoallergenic mattress and two sets of organic custom sheets made with 400-count cotton. The Hushamok stand currently comes in steel, with a rainbow of hammock options: orange, natural, green, blue and pink. This summer, rumor has it that much anticipated aluminum and wood frames are on the way.

Behold, style has met ultimate function. One more reason to love being a modern parent.
