Highchair advisor
Highchair comfort for your child
As an adult, we often opt for the softest chair, believing it to provide the greatest comfort. However a soft chair is not necessarily the most comfortable chair, and more often than not, a soft or highly cushioned chair provides the least support for the lower back and spine.
The highly cushioned chair typically reduces airflow and causes perspiration. Too much softness also tends to absorb the body rather than support it, which leads to stiffness in the vertebra creating strain on the spine and back.
Comfort is achieved when there is proper ergonomic support for the back and spine, an ability to move in the chair, and sufficient airflow not from cushions and soft sitting options.
The needs that your child have from their highchair are even greater, as their body is in a state of growth and development. So as parents the demands we must place upon our children's highchairs are therefore not only to provide comfort, but also to provide greater support, and safety.
At a stage in life where your child’s needs for assurance, support, and connection with you is important, comfort is not only a consideration you must have in selecting the right highchair for your child, but a need that must be fulfilled.
