What do new mothers do with rocking chairs once baby has outgrown nursing? Given that chairs created for nursing typically resemble generations-old heirloom furniture, they’re often discarded after the last child has gone from feedings to “sippy”cups. But for design-conscious parents who demand both utility and style, the multifunctional Sleepytime Rocker ($850) by Offi is the perfect accessory. With its modern construction, the chair starts off in the nursery and is easily graduated to the living or family room. And generous dimensions (38″ tall by 30″ wide by 35” deep) offer plenty of room for moms to nap alone, or to snuggle up with little ones. The Sleepytime Rocker is available in a variety of fabric options, including canvas and felt, and features a multitude of colors. A matching perch footrest is optional.
