The Caring Cradle®
Hospitals in Texas prefer Caring Cradle
for perinatal bereavement care
A cradle that gently cools the baby’s body for families suffering from infant loss
The Caring Cradle gives more time with families that have experienced the loss of an infant. Our cradles are designed to slow the biological effects that are experienced with the loss of a newborn.
Sturdy, simple, beneficial
The bassinet comes assembled and is ready for use. When teams are notified that they are expecting a delivery of an infant who has died or that an infant may pass soon after birth, the original, once plugged in, will be ready for use in 30 minutes. Benefits of the Caring Cradle include ease of use, freedom from wires and hoses, with no need for monitoring or supervision by medical staff or family. The Caring Cradle provides the extra time that families need.
I knew about Cuddle Cots from working maternity services in other hospital but had never heard of the Caring Cradles. I was blown away with how beautiful they were and simple to use.

Everly’s Law will “establish and administer a perinatal bereavement care initiative to improve access to and quality of perinatal bereavement care in this state.”
To help improve access and quality, healthcare teams need tools that are practical and supportive. The Caring Cradle is expertly designed to support both your patients and your team.

What is a Caring Cradle?
The Caring Cradle is a perinatal bereavement device engineered specifically for IUFD, Neonatal death, and stillborn. The Caring Cradle is a cooling device, or cooling bassinet, designed to help delay natural processes that may occur while gifting families uninterrupted time, not just hours but days. The Caring Cradle is a tool that uses a gel pad, that is to be swaddled with the infant in a blanket, this allows families to hold their infant with no attachments.
DESIGNED FOR HOSPITAL
The unit arrives complete, assembled, and ready to assist staff and families. The bassinet and cart’s simple, modern design includes four easy glide locking wheels that allow for quiet, secure setup and removal. The cooling mechanisms are stored securely in the hex locked section of the cabinet and are never visible to families.
SIMPLE SETUP
Setup for use is simple and requires no staff monitoring or management. We recommend the unit be plugged in for approximately 30 minutes before anticipated use. This allows the entire bassinet to reach the desired temperature. Once set up and plugged in the unit can operate for three days or longer depending on the family’s needs.
EASY TO CLEAN
Our cradles are designed with all non-porous materials, making them easy to sanitize between uses. The cart design features a powder-coated metal finish and the bassinets are made of durable recycled vinyl with a plastic fill that allows the use of any commercial-grade or bleach-based cleaner.
Two Cradle Designs Available
The original Caring Cradle and the new Caring Cradle "Mini" will provide countless mothers a more dignified, comfortable way to spend time with their baby immediately following infant loss. The Caring Cradle “Mini” provides all the same, well-loved features while making space more comfortable and suitable for losses under four pounds.
Why Texas Nurses Prefer the Caring Cradle
The Caring Cradle is self-contained. There are never any fluids to be replaced, wasted, or disposed of. There are no parts to replace. There are not any additional costs to the hospital to keep the unit running as intended. Nurses have nothing to track or reorder. Other than wiping the unit down following each use, with a hospital-approved cleaner made for similar materials, the unit requires no further attention.

The most dignified, comfortable means to spend time with a baby following infant loss
The Caring Cradle is designed to assist the nurse, requiring no supervision, monitoring, or maintenance. It does not have any tubes, wires, or fluids to monitor or replace. It does not require replacement parts.
Once the unit is plugged in, it may be left to run continuously, for days, with no intervention. The Caring Cradle frees nurses from remaining bedside with a distraught mother because now the mother has what she wants at that moment, more private, uninterrupted time with her baby.
