Abstract

A support and safety device for caregiver and parent assistance is provided comprising an inclined cushion of semicircular tablet shape, a recess proximate an upper middle area of the cushion, holes in the recess, the holes extending through the cushion, and a swaddle positioner attached to a lower area of the cushion. An angle of incline of the cushion is about ten degrees. The recess promotes support and stabilization of a back area of a user's head. The holes promote breathing in an event a user rolls over from his/her back. The swaddle positioner wraps about a user's lower body and promotes maintenance of a user in an upward facing position.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A support and safety device for caregiver and parent assistance, comprising:
 an inclined cushion of semicircular tablet shape;   a recess proximate an upper middle area of the cushion;   holes in the recess, the holes extending through the cushion; and   a swaddle positioner attached to a lower area of the cushion.   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein an angle of incline of the cushion is about ten degrees. 
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the recess promotes support and stabilization of a back area of a user's head. 
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the holes promote breathing in an event a user rolls over from his/her back. 
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the swaddle positioner wraps about a user's lower body. 
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 5 , wherein the swaddle positioner promotes maintenance of a user in an upward facing position. 
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein an optional arch-shaped component attaches partially around a circumference of the cushion and promotes placement of the system in one of a bassinet, a crib, a stroller, and a bed. 
     
     
         8 . A non-level surface with head support functionality, comprising:
 a flat mattress disposed at a permanent incline;   a shallow cavity located at an upper area of the mattress;   openings in the cavity directed to promoting air flow from an underside area of the mattress; and   a swaddle device secured to a lower portion of the mattress.   
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein an angle of the permanent incline is about ten degrees. 
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the incline promotes positioning of user head above user feet. 
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein an upward facing surface of the mattress is made of at least one of cotton and bamboo. 
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the cavity promotes support and stabilization of a back area of a user's head. 
     
     
         13 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the holes promote breathing in an event a user rolls over from his/her back. 
     
     
         14 . The system of  claim 8 , wherein the swaddle positioner promotes maintenance of a user in an upward facing position. 
     
     
         15 . A system for safe and comfortable support of infants and caregiver clients, comprising:
 a padded surface of semicircular tablet shape disposed in an inclined manner via wedge structure;   a recessed area proximate an upper area of the surface;   holes in the recessed area, the holes permitting air flow from an underside of the surface;   and a swaddle affixed to a bottom area of the surface.   
     
     
         16 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein the inclined manner promotes positioning of user head at level above user feet. 
     
     
         17 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein an optional arch-shaped component attaches partially around a circumference of the surface and promotes placement of the system in one of a bassinet, a crib, a stroller, and a bed. 
     
     
         18 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein the recessed area promotes support and stabilization of a back area of a user's head. 
     
     
         19 . The system of  claim 15 , wherein the swaddle promotes maintenance of a user in an upward facing position. 
     
     
         20 . The system of  claim 19 , wherein the holes promote breathing in an event the user rolls from the upward facing position.
