We love new gadgets here at Mother&Baby, especially the ones that make parenting a little easier. The Sleepytroll Baby Rocker Gen2 is the latest to make its appearance. It's basically a rechargeable baby rocker that comes complete with sound and motion sensors to gently soothe and comfort your little one
As the name suggests, the Baby Rocker Gen2 is designed to provide gentle, continuous rocking to calm your little one. We like it as it's portable so you can take it with you to use on a stroller, crib, or a bouncer.
It's pretty easy to use too! You simply attach it and switch it on. Parents can take advantage of three hours of uninterrupted rocking motion via the Sleepytroll app. This will leave you a little time to finish off what needs doing around the house. Sleepytroll also automatically responds when your baby stirs, so no more having to rock your baby back to sleep, the soothing rocker will do the work for you and your arms will thank you!

Features of the Sleepytroll Baby Rocker
There are many reasons why the first version of the Sleepytroll was loved by parents, and even more so now with some upgraded features.
Versatile
The Sleepytroll can be used on strollers, cribs, and even baby bouncers (adapters are sold separately).
Adjustable
Its basic mode provides 60 minutes of rocking, or up to 180 when controlled via the Sleepytroll app. You can also adjust the intensity of the rock, which is great for rocking double strollers too.
Long-Lasting Battery
Keeps your baby comforted with up to 12 hours of battery life on a single 2.5-hour charge (the previous version only had 8 hour life on max power).
Dual control
The Sleepytroll can be controlled via the app for more rocking options, or manually on the rocker itself for quick use.
Sensor mode
The Sleepytroll automatically starts rocking for three minutes whenever it detects your baby stirring or crying, providing instant comfort.
Another advantage of the Sleepytroll is that it's suitable to use from birth and is water resistant, so you don't have to worry about rainy weather if it's attached to a stroller while you're out.
