The Haywood Reclining Glider Nursing Chair and Footstool is a premium, safety-certified seating system engineered specifically for modern nurseries, primary schools, childminders, and early years environments. Combining exceptional ergonomic support with daily practicality, the Haywood features an advanced multi-position recline system and a synchronized gliding mechanism. This professional-grade chair creates a deeply supportive, tranquil environment for parents and childcare practitioners during daily feeding, winding, and soothing routines.

This versatile glider stands out with its unique 7-position reclining backrest, allowing caregivers to effortlessly adjust their posture for optimal comfort by lifting both armrests simultaneously. To ensure correct physical alignment during long feeding shifts, the chair is equipped with deeply contoured ergonomic cushions and a specialized bow-back backrest design that actively promotes healthy sitting posture and reduces spinal fatigue. Deep storage pockets are integrated into both armrests, providing a convenient, accessible spot for record logs, feeding diaries, and essential nursery supplies.

Built for exceptional structural longevity under rigorous daily workloads, the Haywood is constructed from high-grade solid rubberwood—a sustainable, dense timber harvested as a by-product of the latex industry. For absolute safety assurance, the unit is fully certified to meet strict BS 5852: Part 2: 1982 fire retardant laws and BS EN 12520:2010 safety standards, ensuring total compliance and peace of mind within any professional childcare setting.

Certified UK Safety Standards: Thoroughly tested to meet stringent British safety regulations, including BS 5852: Part 2: 1982 (fire safety) and BS EN 12520:2010 (domestic seating safety) for a recommended maximum weight limit of 100kg (structurally tested up to 110kg).

Easy to Clean

Premium Low-Maintenance Fabrics: Microfibre options provide a luxurious, ultra-soft suede-touch feel while being highly resilient. Accidental spills should be wiped away immediately using a cloth dampened with water and mild soap, while cushions are to be dry-cleaned only to preserve their internal padding structure.

Rhythmic Soothing Motion: The perfectly synchronized gliding mechanism of both the chair and footstool provides a calm, relaxed environment to easily soothe restless infants.
Postural Correction: Specially designed to prevent slouching during late-night or long-duration feeding sessions, protecting the caregiver's physical well-being.

Day nurseries, pre-schools, and dedicated infant feeding areas within professional childcare centers.

Easy Assembly and Storage

The Haywood Glider Chair and Footstool system is engineered for simple, straightforward assembly, typically taking between 30 minutes to an hour to complete. Every unit is supplied with a comprehensive, easy-to-follow instruction manual booklet along with all the necessary heavy-duty hardware. Please note that because glider cushions are tightly packed for transit protection, they may initially appear slightly compressed; simply allow a few days for the high-density padding to naturally expand and settle back into its true ergonomic shape.
