Zaky Hand Pillow for Babies

Babies deserve all the love, closeness, nurturing, and contact we can give them. They thrive on the touch, voice, and scent of their parents and those in their family. Unfortunately, sometimes we aren't able to give our babies all we want to give, or all they need.

The Zaky hand pillow was designed by a mother and ergonomic scientist whose child, Zachary, was born prematurely, weighing under 2 pounds. She observed how the nurses would use items like blankets and stuffed animals to try to create a soft, firm boundary to help the babies feel safe and secure, but realized that none of these involved the mother or father. She decided to use her skills and education to bless others on behalf of her now happy and healthy son. Premature babies often benefit from close physical contact, but their parents are usually not able to be with them 24 hours a day. The Zaky pillow was developed to have the scent of the parent, so it helps babies bond with their mom or dad even when they could not be together. Babies are comforted by touch and smells that are familiar for them, so Zaky has bridged the gap so that parents can still do something personal for their child even when they are apart.
As a mother of a child that was born 3 months prematurely, I can tell you that I would have LOVED to have had Zakeez to leave with my precious little boy when I had to go home each day.
I have also had a few of my babies that liked my hands to be just so around them while they slept--regardless of whether or not I had to get up to go to the bathroom of change positions! The Zaky would have been a great help to me during those times.
Zaky pillows are fully washable (comes with its own washing bag) and it is made with extremely high quality workmanship.

The Zaky is proven to comfort children and adults that must be away from their loved ones for some periods of time.
In hospitals:
Children and adults that have a long stay due to cancer, burns or other treatments etc. and families cannot stay 24/7 find the Zaky comforting as it smells and feels like their loved ones. It also helps on positioning after surgical procedures.
Some moms swap scented Zakys with the child so both feel closer to each other (moms scent it for the child and the child scents it for his/her mom)
In Child Care Centers and at home:
Children that take naps or have quiet times find the Zaky very comforting as they can use it wherever they go (child care, baby sitters, grandparents’ home, etc)
For Nursing homes:
Senior Citizens find the Zaky comforting and they are able to sleep better if they are calmer.

At last a baby bath that does not take over the bathroom! This solid plastic bath has been cleverly constructed with flexible joints that will allow it to be folded flat when not in use.

The plug is easily removed by the adult to make empting the bath simple especially if used within the adult bath or shower tray.
