The Best Chair for Rocking Babies
The title above seems a boast, but it is a promise.
If our Weeks Rocker™ is not the best for your family,
you may return it for a full refund including shipping both ways.
We make rockers for mothers, fathers, grandparents, and their future generations.
Babies rocked in one of our chairs can rock their great grandchildren in it.
Nurture
...to care for and encourage development. What a good word for this context. It conveys the contribution of all who hold and rock babies for:
- breastfeeding
- bottlefeeding
- putting to sleep
- calming and settling
- all the ways to love in those moments
The Weeks Rocker® is excellent for nurturing
- It was designed and tested to be.
- The seat is generous and scooped deeply to relieve pressure on the hipbones.
- The back splats support the lumbar and relieve the muscles of the lower back.
- The motion is balanced and near effortless.
- The headrest supports the head. (Unless you are very tall or long of body.)
- The armrests are positioned, pitched, and contoured to softly support the arms as they nestle a baby or child.
- The chair is comfortable for even those occasional long sessions when it's not so much fun.
Working for Families is Part of the Calling
Some of the most centered, contented, and cherished times of our lives were spent rocking our children. So making a chair for people to rock theirs feels like important work.
Hearing from Families is Much of the Reward

The chair has arrived safely in Nashville and is now in a place of honor in the baby’s room. It is such a lovely piece!! My daughter and her husband have a sense of humor, and I wanted to share a few texts from them:
S. (...husband): “You can feel the quality.”
S. : “This chair seems to be saying ‘I am what furniture is supposed to be. I don’t know about the other stuff you guys you put in here, though.”
The chair to the other pieces in the baby room: “Back when I was being assembled by master craftsmen…oh sorry, you guys were cobbled together with Allen keys on a Saturday morning, weren’t you?”
Sincerely yours,

Family Heirloom Rocking Chairs
When a worthy object has a family’s history invested in it, it becomes an heirloom. We build them.
After the children have decided that they would rather read to themselves, one of our rocking chairs has no shabby upholstery, broken springs, or failing mechanisms. It remains a favorite place to sit for family and guests...while it waits for the next generation.
Of Note:
We have observed that often:
- Grandparents order a rocker for their children in the first trimester of a pregnancy.
- Expectant mothers order a rocker for themselves in the second.
- Expectant fathers order a rocker for their mates on the due date.
Our Babies Grow Up
But we are still using rocking chairs to encourage their development.
