Why did babyhood create a specific Cot for this industry?
Work Safe Victoria discovered carers were suffering from multiple skeletal injuries. These were caused by the repeated manual handling and bending into cots in 2011. The injuries caused varied from person to person but are caused primarily by the repeated bending into lower level cots.
Work Safe Victoria proceeded to issue Early Learning Centre’s infringement notices and required center’s to change their cots to a more suitable cot to reduce the injuries caused.
This meant that the options for Early Learning Centre’s were limited to Cots that did not meet Australian Standards or metal cots. Metal Cots didn’t meet the comfort and assurance requirements of parents and carers.
As a result, babyhood began working in consultation with various associations including Work Safe Victoria, Kindergarten Parents Victoria (KPV), Good Start Childcare, Fair Trading Victoria, Fair Trading Queensland and one of Australia’s leading ergonomists Chris Fitzgerald.
babyhood decided to try to resolve the issue by developing a Cot specific for this industry’s needs. This was no easy task as it required new innovation, new technology and the consensus of all the related parties as to what was best for carers, babies and parents.
After almost 14 months, babyhood had designed and manufactured the babyhood Ergonomic Cot, which was proudly launched at the KPV Conference in Melbourne.
The unique Australian Patented and Design Registered Cot was made to reduce the stress placed on carers. They did this by increasing the base height and making access to the child easier. The design allows carers to get closer to the child to reduce the impact of the load.

Great for people with bad backs and a baby that does not settle in a low cot. the lock for the side drop is made of plastic which i doubt will last very long – and the mechanism is a bit fiddly to use and get used to. overall still happy with this cot and still the best choice for our family’s needs. just has room for improvement but with little competition in the market i doubt there will be upgrades.

Purchased this cot for our 3rd baby and so far it has been fantastic! The raised height of the mattress is an absolute game changer, minimal disruption to babe when transferring into the cot!
It has made it possible for grandparents with limited mobility to get baby in and out of cot also.
Very sturdy and solid cot also, easy to put together.
Drop down side takes a little bit to get used to but easy once you do!
Overall would highly recommend!

The cot is easy to assemble, and is a great height for my 6’5 partner to settle bub without back pain.
The locking mechanism to drop the side of the cot takes some getting used to, and also isn’t the quietest.
The bubs n grubs team were very proactive with communication and the cot shipped quickly.
Overall we are happy with our purchase

I wish we purchased this right at the beginning when having our baby in stead of wasting money on a normal cot. The height and way the door comes most of the way goes down really saves your back and as a parent its been a life saver, couldn’t recommend high enough, its worth the money.

Very happy with this purchase. Not the prettiest cot out there but perfect when your baby requires a lot of settling. Feels solid and at a mattress height not available with any other cot on the market.

Absolutely love this cot – just wish I had known about this sooner, would not have put my back through months of torture with a standard cot. I can not recommend this highly enough.
I’m tall so this cot has just made my life so much easier! Definitely saving on physio appointments!!
