How to Choose a Nursery Glider

Nursery Gliders are more comfortable than the traditional rocking chair. You'll end up using it more than you might think, especially in your baby's first year. Moms and dads will spend many hours throughout the day and night feeding and soothing their newborn, and a supportive, comfortable chair makes everyone happier.

Nursery Gliders are more comfortable than the traditional rocking chair. You'll end up using it more than you might think, especially in your baby's first year. Moms and dads will spend many hours throughout the day and night feeding and soothing their newborn, and a supportive, comfortable chair makes everyone happier. Even after using it in the nursery it makes a great piece of furniture and a very comfortable addition to any room. Nursery Gliders can often range from just over $400 to $1,000, so a glider can feel like a splurge, especially at the high end, but don't let that prevent you from getting one of the most useful parts of your nursery.


Nursery Gliders have a ball-bearing mechanism that lets you glide back and forth for hours with hardly any strain on the lower back. Nursery gliders are available in hundreds of styles and upholstery choices to match any décor, you may choose a fabric to coordinate with the nursery décor or select a model that fits in with the master bedroom or whatever room the nursery glider might be moved to later. You may also provide your own fabric to customize your nursery glider. There are many options to choose from like slip covered, down filled, recliner options with also matching gliding ottomans.


When you're testing nursery glider models, try to go to a store and sit in the chair and glide in it. That's the best way to tell if a glider seat fits you comfortably. Some Gliders have plushy seats, others have firmer seating. Also, consider getting a glider with a generous seat and arms that fits you well. Both of these features are very important because you're likely to use a nursing pillow since you will find that it's a great place for you and your baby. Also consider the backseat since you will need the support. A great feature you should consider is a reclining seat, since you will continue to use your glider once your baby is grown up.


With hundreds of fabric options you may choose a fabric to coordinate with the rest of the nursery decor or a neutral colored fabric that may fit in any room décor. You may also consider a glider with an option for a slip cover, so you can have a new glider by just replacing the slip cover and not the whole glider.
