ABSTRACT:
A pillow for supporting a baby during bath time. The pillow comprises a compressible, shape-sustaining, C-shaped bolster with a center well sized to surround and “hug” the torso of a baby or toddler. A collapsible seat is attached to the bolster. The seat bottom is supported by a sidewall that is continuous with the inner sidewall of the bolster. In a first, extended position, the seat bottom is positioned a distance below the bottom of the bolster. This configuration is ideal for a baby or toddler in a seated position, allowing the child to sit upright inside the pillow's well. The seat may be configured in a second, collapsed position with the seat bottom forming a sling that extends across the well of the bolster. By flipping the pillow over, this configuration is ideal for supporting a small or newborn infant in a reclining position for bathing.
