Description

The Nap Nanny is a portable infant recliner designed for sleeping, resting and playing. The recliner includes a bucket seat shaped foam base and a fitted fabric cover with a three point harness.

Hazards

CPSC is warning parents and caregivers that these baby recliners contain defects in the design, warnings and instructions, which pose a substantial risk of injury and death to infants.

Reported injuries

CPSC is aware of one death and 22 reports of infants hanging or falling out over the side of the Nap Nanny. Subsequently, despite the improvements to the warnings and instructions, additional deaths using the Nap Nanny recliners were reported, including one in a Chill model and 70 reports of children nearly falling out of the product.

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the recalled baby recliners immediately and review the return policy of the individual retailer from which they purchased a Nap Nanny recliner and contact that retailer for instructions on returns.
