Life with the Jané Crosswalk pram

We have been using our Jané Crosswalk pram for almost 3 months now since our baby son Jackson was born on the 14th August 2017. This pram is suitable from birth up until approx 15kg and is fab for our needs! In this post you will see in the photo gallery real, every day images of us using the pram and its versatility. Any questions you may have reading this please don’t hesitate to ask! I feel at one with this pram now!

When we were looking at buying a new pram several factors were important to us, to suit our lifestyle and a growing child. We wanted something all terrain style, with hard wearing wheels, large roomy seat that laid flat for a newborn, good size hood and basket, parent & outward facing seat unit, not too heavy, folds compact and easy to use. We already had 2 compatible car seats to use also made by Jané so it just made sense really to be able to use them not only in mine and my husband’s cars,  but also with a Jané pram that is pro fix.

The Crosswalk seemed to tick all of these boxes and after doing my pram research into this particular model we decided to go for it and bought one in the Moss colour which I adore! We have been using the pram alongside a matrix light 2 car seat which performs as an excellent carrycot also. Plus a Concord Air car seat (compatible with  Jané prams).

Jané 2 Stage Ergonomic cushion – Promotes Anti flat head sleeping

So we’ve been testing out the Jané 2 stage ergonomic cushion in Baby Jackson’s Babyside crib also made by Jané these past two weeks, and so far it seems to be aiding a more comfortable night’s sleep for him. On the 1st night he used it he slept until 8.30am! Now that can’t be bad. In addition to this we can use it around the house like here for example in his Baby Bjorn bouncer. It stays in place very well and he seems to like using it. Here is our happy and slightly sleepier little boy. The smile says it all!

The reason we chose this pillow is that more recently he’s developed a slight flat  head (plagiocephaly) in one area something we’d not experienced with our first born. So naturally we wanted to help erradicate this problem and help it to not develop any further as much as we could.

Jané Aqua 2 in 1 Hammock & Bath Seat

We were kindly gifted this bath seat to review by Jané with our 7 week old baby Jackson, and from the very 1st use it has been a success! It is always quite scary not knowing how young babies will react to something new and trying to make them feel calm, relaxed and secure isn’t always an easy task.

Now generally Jackson loves his baths and we were very excited to try something new here, that will suit his age range and see him through for the months to come as he grows. For us the 2 in 1 hammock ticks all our boxes and here’s why…
