There’s probably a lot of things you want in your nursery, but I’m here to tell you that your top priority should be a nursery glider. I know it seems like your baby needs so many things, but guess what? All they really need is you. Having a great nursery glider will make you want to spend time in their room and allow the two of you plenty of time for cuddles in a comfy spot. This is going to be the spot you do late night feedings in, read your baby’s first books to them in, and hopefully even catch a few naps yourself in while your baby sleeps in the crib (fingers crossed). All the really important stuff!
You might be like, well what really makes a nursery glider any different than a normal chair? Our rookie mom squad took a look at the best nursery glider of 2019 and see what makes them so special.
Best Nursery Glider for 2019 – A Look at the Best of the Best
Pottery Barn Kids Wingback Glider and Recliner
Pottery Barn is just one of those things you cannot go wrong with. You can trust that you’re purchasing a high-quality, well-made product which is super important considering how much time you will spend in this chair.
It is so comfy that you might not really mind just falling asleep right in it. Need an even better reason to sleep in your nursery glider? This one reclines all the way back with ease. As with all Pottery Barn items, there’s a lot of options when it comes to this chair from fabrics to color to automatic/manual. Check Latest Prices Here!
Paxton Recliner and Rocker
Our other favorite Pottery Barn Glider is this super adorable and modern Paxton Recliner and Rocker. Besides its absolute adorable look, you know with Pottery Barn that the chair is very well constructed. In addition, this is one of the best nursery gliders because it is GREENGUARD Gold Certified which means this glider meets or exceeds stringent chemical emissions standards.
One of the other great features of this rocker is its ability to swivel a full 360 degrees which is great for those times you might want to change your view to a window or maybe your favorite show on Netflix. Check Current Prices Here!
Baby Relax Double Rocker
This rocker tops my list just because it’s a little bit different than anything else. It has room for two people to sit!! This means some parent bonding or maybe some older sibling inclusion. Or maybe mom just needs some room to stretch out while she’s nursing!
It’s basically a bench on a rocker, and I don’t know about you but that just sounds like the best idea ever to me. You can also add on the ottoman, which is extra wide. It comes in a nice taupe or beige color that you can match with any nursery theme you have going. Check Current Price Here!
Crate & Barrel Bakersfield Rocking Chair
Okay, maybe I shouldn’t be able to include this chair on the best nursery glider list because it isn’t really a glider. It’s just my absolute favorite rocker, though, so I can’t leave it off! The perfect balance between vintage and brand new.
It’s wooden with chic black and white striped cushions. Many moms rave that the chair is set at the perfect recline for them to nurse or cuddle their baby, which should relieve some fears about not being able to change it up much. This is one of those great buys because when you no longer need a nursery, it can still sit nicely just about anywhere in your home. Check current prices here!
Babyletta Tuba Swivel Glider Chair and a Half
It’s not all about looks, but hey it is kind of about looks. Afterall, you will be seeing a lot of this chair. This makes my best nursery glider list because you just can’t find anything more trendy. On top of being one of the prettiest accessories for your nursery, it’s extra wide and has a thick cushion.
It also comes with a handy lumbar pillow, which will save you during feedings more times than you think. I also love the sleek metal that makes up the base and the matching ottoman. While this seat comes at a cost, it’s really worth the investment! Check current prices here!
Angel Line Windsor Glider and Ottoman
There’s just something about the look of an old-fashioned rocking chair, and that’s exactly the vibe this Angel Line Windsor Glider and Ottoman will give you. Even though it’s shaped like a rocking chair, it’s got extra soft padding that could only be from this decade. You’ll sink right in.
Not to mention the handy pockets built into the side which are perfect for storing whatever extras you & baby might need. You will also be happy to know that assembly is a piece of cake and so is cleaning it off in the case of future messes. Check current prices here!
Baby Relax Wainwright Wingback Convertible
Take a look at this chair and tell me you don’t just want to sit down in it. It is a favorite among many new moms & dads, probably because it can be converted from a nursery chair to a normal house chair. You simply remove the rocker legs and voila! This chair comes in grey, beige, or ivory which may not seem exciting but will last you many years of household changes. Check current prices here!
Delta Children Dylan Nursery Recliner Glider
If you glanced quickly at this chair, I am not sure you would believe it actually belonged in a nursery. Yet, its whisper like a recliner and super smooth swivel action is made just for that. You can keep your feet up when this chair is in full recline because the bottom pops up into a footrest. PS If you are expecting a little princess, you have to check out the blush color that this chair comes in. It is dreamy! Check current prices here!
Da Vinci Olive Glider and Ottoman
This is one of the best nursery gliders just because it includes everything you need at a reasonable price. It’ll be one of the comfiest chairs you ever have in your home, and It comes in three different neutral colors so you can surely match it to the room it needs to be in. You can swivel 360 degrees in this chair so smoothly making everything seem just within reach! Check current prices here!
Pottery Barn Radcliffe Rocking Chair & Ottoman
There is no way this list could be complete without at least one other Pottery Barn glider option! While we first brought you the traditional Wingback, the Radcliffe is a bit more unique. Not to mention, it will be a beautiful addition to any home. It rocks very quietly and is sturdy for easy getting up. It might just become your favorite spot to nap! Here is pricing information.
West Elm Graham Glider
Every mama deserves some luxury in her life, and this chair is the best way to give her some. It is one of the comfiest chairs on this list and its gliding mechanism is super smooth. There is a wide range of colors and fabrics to choose from so you can find the perfect fit for any nursery. Personally, I am obsessed with the Blush Velvet. Check this chair out!
Project 62 Esters Rocking Accent Chair
Fuzzy sherpa material is in, and I sure hope it isn’t going anywhere soon. I think this glider is such a fun way to bring texture into a room, especially a nursery. Even better, this chair is set at a great price. It can also be placed elsewhere in your home flawlessly once your babies are grown. You can buy yours here!
Baby Relax Mikayla Swivel Gliding Recliner
This seat comes with a great price tag, especially considering how comfortable it is to sit in. The seat is made of supportive spring core foam, which will make you want to stay in it all day long. You definitely won’t be missing out on any quality with this one. It glides very smoothly and gives you a full range of motion. Here is current pricing!
