Cradlewise’s Gentle bounce mode

Gentle-Mode3x

Every baby has their own preference for their crib’s bounce—while some can’t get enough of the bounce, others love a super, super gentle bounce.

If you’ve ever wished that the crib would only just bounce very slightly, we’ve got you covered. The Gentle bounce setting is just the right feature for you.

Let’s dive right in to learn more about it.

What is Gentle bounce mode?

Gentle bounce mode‘ is a crib feature that allows you to cap the bounce intensity to the gentle most mode.

This mode has been crafted with the utmost care to cater to babies who prefer a subtle bouncing motion. This is the least possible intensity that your crib can bounce at.

If you’re using the Smart Bounce, you can check out this level by dragging your slider to the picGentle level. If you’re in Manual mode, this is the 3% intensity that you get when you slide your “Intensity” all the way to the left.

When to use Gentle bounce mode?

Gentle bounce mode’ was originally built for babies who experience startle reflexes. The startle reflex in babies is an automatic, sudden reaction to a loud noise or a quick change in their environment. When a baby experiences this, they may throw their arms and legs outward, briefly arch their back, and then bring their limbs back in.

This mode is particularly beneficial for babies who may be more sensitive to higher bounce intensities. By choosing ‘Gentle bounce mode,’ you are creating a nurturing environment that promotes a sense of security and comfort, helping your baby to relax and enjoy a more restful sleep.

This mode is popular with younger babies, under one month of age, especially when combined with 80 – 90% sensitivity. This way, when the baby moves even slightly, the crib will immediately respond and start a nice, gentle bounce to soothe them. However, if your baby is older and prefers a gentler bounce, you can try this out as well.

For any baby that likes gentle bounce, this is the lowest possible intensity at which the crib can bounce.
