Tucker Sling and Cot Wedge

For use in hospitals and at home, The Tucker Sling® was developed with safety, comfort, and easy access in mind. A variety of sizes are available to accommodate babies weighing from under 3 pounds up to 25 pounds.

The Tucker Sling® keeps babies secure. The Sling fits around the elevated upper part of a reflux wedge like a contour sheet. A nappy-shaped section fits between the baby's legs and fastens around the waist with Velcro. The Tucker Sling® fits baby comfortably and adjusts for your little ones growth. A d loop fastener reinforces the Velcro fasteners for extra safety. Because The Tucker Sling® is so easy to use, nurses and parents can quickly attend to baby.

The Tucker Sling Wedge is approxiamtely 60cm wide so will fit all UK cots and cot beds - it can also be used on any floor for day-time use.

As always please use common sense when using and do not use on an elevated surface.

The Tucker Sling® is used in hundreds of major hospitals throughout the United States. Ralph Franceschini, M.D., pediatrician at The Kaiser Foundation Hospital-Sunset, Los Angeles, California uses The Tucker Sling ® for all babies with reflux and other illnesses that require positioning.

Spare/extra slings can be purchased here.

Douglas LaGarde, M.D., pediatric gastroenterologist at Tulane University Hospital and clinic in
New Orleans, Louisiana remarks:  

"I have found The Tucker Sling® to be very user friendly. There have been no problems with babies falling out or getting tangled. Mums are pleased and the price is right."
