Let them explore. Let yourself breathe.

 4.8 | Loved by 2,000+ parents

Your baby is going to tip backwards. Probably today. And you won't always be close enough to catch them.

Strap on a buddy and every backwards fall lands on a thick, squishy cushion instead of hard floor. They keep exploring. You stop flinching.

    She tips backwards about ten times a day while she learns to sit. Since the frog arrived I've stopped diving across the living room. She lands on it, looks surprised, and keeps playing.

    We have tile through the whole house. Now when she tips back, she lands on the bear instead of the floor. Worth it for my nerves alone.

    I expected a battle. He thinks the dragon is his friend and crawls around with it all morning.

    On in 10 seconds. On their back all day.

    Slip their arms through, click the buckle, done. The donut-shaped head cushion sits right behind their head and the padded body covers their back, so a backwards tumble lands on plush instead of floor.

    Same tumble. Softer landing.

    You know the moment. They're sitting up, so proud of themselves, and then they just tip. Straight back. You lunge, you miss, and you hear that hollow thud on the floor.

    Now watch the frog. Same wobble, same tip. This time their head lands on a thick, squishy cushion, and they're back to playing before you've even stood up.

    What parents saw when their baby tipped backwards in a buddy.

    • It caught the fall I missed

      I turned around for two seconds to grab a bottle. Heard a thump, spun round, and Mia was flat on her back on our kitchen tile. Her head had landed right on the bunny. She looked confused, then started laughing. Without it, that's the back of her head hitting tile. I still feel sick thinking about it.

    • Straight back off the sofa

      Leo pulled himself up on the sofa, let go, and went straight backwards like a plank onto our hardwood floor. I heard the cushion hit the floor and he didn't even cry. The last time he banged his head like that we spent the evening watching him with an ice pack. This time he just crawled off.

    • No more lumps

      Our daughter fell backwards on nearly every one of her first steps. She'd already had two lumps on the back of her head before we found this. Since the frog arrived she hasn't had a single one. I only wish we'd bought it sooner.

    • Paid for itself in one fall

      I bought it half thinking it was a gimmick. Three days later Noah tipped back while sitting on the bathroom floor, right next to the edge of the bath step. The dragon took the whole hit. That one fall made it worth every penny.

    • Not one bump since

      Every time Ava wobbled I'd dive across the room to catch her head. Now when she goes back, she lands on the owl. It's happened more times than I can count and she hasn't bumped her head once since.

      Questions parents ask

      Everything you're wondering

      Your baby wears it like a little backpack. The donut-shaped cushion sits right behind their head and the padded body covers their back. When they tip backwards, their head lands on the cushion instead of the floor.

      Babies who are learning to sit, crawl, pull up and walk, roughly 6 months to 2 years. If your baby wobbles, it's time.

      One size fits most. The shoulder straps and chest buckle adjust, so you can tighten it for a little sitter and loosen it as they grow.

      Whenever your baby is off exploring and you can't keep your eyes on them every second. Cooking dinner, folding laundry, answering the door: they keep playing, and every backwards tumble lands on the cushion.

      It's soft, light and looks like a cuddly toy, so most babies forget it's on within minutes. Put it on right before playtime and they'll link it with fun.

      Yes. All 17 have the same size, padding and straps. Only the animal changes, so pick the one your baby will love. Buying 2 or 3? You can choose a different one for each.

      Yes. Wash it just like any other baby clothes or plush toy.
