Galt Baby Nest Reviews

We have this nest at one of the groups we attend and it was also in a few of nurseries that I worked in during my time as a nursery nurse. It's basically a big circular tyre that has a hole in the middle for a baby to sit and hanging over them are two colourful poles that have toys hanging from them. This toy has both it's good and bad ...  Read the complete review

I bought one of these for my daughter. It was great fun and she loved being in it with all the activites around her. However, until she was able to sit on her own she would slide down the side and look uncomfortable. She often fell asleep in the circle though and it cacooned her perfectly, so I would just put a blanket over her rather than move ...  Read the complete review

I borrowed the Galt baby nest from a friend of mine when my son was about 5 months old. The nest is basically an inflatable rubber ring covered in baby friendly material with detachable arches over it with soft toys which hang from the arches (a bird a moon and a sun in my version). It was great initially as my very active son could ...  Read the complete review

When I had my son I invested in one of these. It caught my eye because it was inflatable and the child could be suported sitting in it. When I got it back it was great my son sat in it looking at all the dangling activities and the mirror that was at the top and he could see himself in it. It played the song you are my sunshine and ...  Read the complete review

I brought one of these play nests for my daughter 6 years ago when she was a new born, at the time it was the only one of its kind available on the market so there wasnt much of a choice available to us. You can buy the nest (bottom ring) sererately to use on its own for around £25 or you can buy it as a set with the gym above it for ...  Read the complete review

I picked this item up from a car boot sale, brand new in box for a fiver. I was going to put it away for bit, as my wee one is only 3 months and I wasn't sure how he would get on with it. I gave it a chance though and am glad I did, he loves lying in it and feeling all the different textures on the material. The Galt Play Nest consists ...  Read the complete review

I first came across this play nest 6 years ago when my eldest was a baby. They had one in the Health Visitor room for the babies to sit in while you were waiting. My daughter loved it although I did not buy her one as they just cost too much and I didn't have the money then. When I was pregnant with my youngest daughter I went to a ...  Read the complete review

My mother baught the gault baby nest and gym for my daughter when she was born. we started to use it when she was around 3 months old right the way up until she could crawl. this is a great place to sit baby where you know they will be safe. if a cushion or loft blanket is placed inside the ring then this can be used for a newborn to lay ...  Read the complete review

I bought this for my twin boys when they were just 4months old, I thought it would be a great buy as it would help them sit up and strengthen their muscles. It is a perfect sized blow up ring for just 1 baby to sit in, they can either sit in it or lay in it and lean on the edges however they feel comfortable. The ring is a nightmare to ...  Read the complete review

I first found out about playnests whilst browsing on eBay. I was quickly hooked. I spent so long every day finding out about retailers and various prices, as well as trying to get a cheap one from eBay, that my husband claims to have been driving to the point of insanity by me [again].He agreed to take me down to Mothercare the next day and buy ...  Read the complete review

I've had the play nest for three kids, and my last one doesn't seem overkeen on it, but I'll try again when he's a bit older - he's only 10 weeks at the moment. It's a lovely big comfy inflatable ring, covered with a colourful zip on cover that has lots of touchy feely and squeaky rattly bits, with bits that go ...  Read the complete review

I bought the Galt Baby Nest and Gym for my new baby boy even though I thought it was bit pricey I felt that he wouldn't get as many new toys to his name since his brother already has a bucket load of them lying around. I started to set it up before my little boy was born because I was very impatient to see how it was and ...  Read the complete review

This is a brilliant idea, and is ideal for a young child. I bought one before my daughter was born and we started using it when she was about 3 months old. Basically it is a giant inflatable rubber ring over which you put a fabric cover. The baby sits in the ring and rests his/her head on the inflated ring, it is very comfy for a ...  Read the complete review

I had a very demanding baby. Even when she was newborn she hardly ever slept and demanded an awful lot of attention and I could never get any time to myself, let alone anything done. When she was 4 months old I went to a friends house who happened to have a galt playnest an gym. I put my daughter in it and couldn't believe it. She ...  Read the complete review

This baby nest is really visually appealing, with lots of bright colours and images, and a range of textures to keep young babies amused. The nest can be purchased with or without the additional overhead 'gym' toys. The nest is useful aid for babies who can't quite sit up by themselves, although I found it necessary ...  Read the complete review

We bought this for our little girl when she was 3mths old. It stayed inflated and still is even now when she is 11mths, yet I have not managed to get more than a reasonable amount of use out of it. She is a very active baby and at first it was totally useless. I found the best age for her to use it was between 5 and 6 mths until she ...  Read the complete review

Having bought one of these Galt nests for my first son when he was about 9mths I can say it was one of the best investments ever. I now have a 6mth old who has been in it since he was 5mths old and I think my only regret is that I did not buy it sooner with the older one. I just bought the nest, nowadays you buy it with a gym over the top. ...  Read the complete review

Just stick baby in the dogs bed!!! I liked the idea of a baby nest as I already had a toddler and thought it would be helpful to have a safe place that was specifically for the baby. I didn't have room to put up or store a play pen. The only one I could find was the Galt Playnest but at £30 I decided that it wasn't worth ...  Read the complete review
