There are nursery chairs, and then there are chairs that happen to be in the nursery. The Sunday Power Recliner and Swivel Glider designed by Nursery Works belongs firmly in the second category. The oversized silhouette, hand-upholstered Chai Shearling fabric, and dark wood base give it the presence of a living room investment piece. The fact that it glides, swivels 270 degrees, and power-reclines at the push of a button is the practical story underneath.
For the long overnight feeds and the slow mornings and the story-time stretches, this is a chair designed to make those hours feel like something other than endurance. The plush cushioning and supportive backrest are built for an adult body spending real time in a real position. The USB-A/C charging port in the armrest keeps your phone alive through all of it. And at 57" fully reclined, you have a genuinely flat surface to settle into when the baby finally goes down.
GREENGUARD Gold certified, CertiPUR-US® certified foam, FSC® certified wood frame. No tools required for setup. The ottoman is sold separately — it's the Kiwi Gliding Ottoman, and it pairs well.

Best For / Not Ideal For
Best For
• Parents who want a chair that functions as a genuine piece of furniture — the oversized silhouette, Shearling fabric, and dark wood base are designed to anchor a room, not recede into it
• Those doing the overnight hours: the full power recline to 57", the glide, the 270-degree swivel, the USB charging port — all of it is designed for a parent who is actually spending time in this chair
• NYC apartments where the nursery chair has to hold its own as room decor — a Nursery Works design is a different tier of aesthetic intentionality than standard nursery seating
• Parents who want a wider, more oversized seat: at 22"W and 21.5"D, this is a roomier sit than many nursing chairs
• Families prioritizing material safety: GREENGUARD Gold, CertiPUR-US® foam, FSC® certified wood — all three major certifications present
Not Ideal For
• Very tight rooms: at 35.25"L × 35.5"W upright and 57" fully reclined, measure your clearance before purchasing — this is a larger-footprint chair than most nursing options
• Tablet users: the USB-A/C port is rated for phones only; using it for a tablet can damage the motor and permanently disable the charging and reclining functions
• Buyers expecting an ottoman included: the Kiwi Gliding Ottoman is sold separately
• Those who prefer a stain-resistant or water-repellent fabric: the Chai Shearling upholstery is luxurious but not treated for spill resistance
• Those who want more fabric options for a specific design aesthetic

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is Nursery Works, and why does the design collaboration matter?
Nursery Works is a design studio known for elevated, considered nursery furniture that prioritizes aesthetics without sacrificing function. The Sunday is the result of that design sensibility applied to a nursing chair — which is why it has the proportions, materials, and visual weight of a proper piece of furniture rather than something that looks like it belongs in a waiting room.
How does the power recline work? Is it quiet?
The push-button control panel operates a smooth, quiet reclining mechanism that lowers the headrest and raises the footrest simultaneously. It's designed to operate without startling a sleeping baby.
Can I charge my tablet with the USB port?
No. The USB-A/C port is rated for small devices like phones only. Using it for a tablet or other large device can damage the motor and permanently disable both the charging and reclining functions. Use it for your phone.
How much clearance do I need behind the chair to recline?
The Sunday extends to 57" in length when fully reclined. In an NYC nursery, measure the clearance behind the chair before purchasing — you need enough room for the chair to extend fully without hitting a wall or other furniture. This is a larger-footprint chair than most, so it's worth confirming the floor plan works.
What is the weight limit?
300 lbs.
Is the Shearling fabric easy to clean?
The Shearling is a texture-rich, hand-upholstered fabric that prioritizes comfort and aesthetic. It is not water-repellent or stain-resistant in the way performance fabrics are. If spill resistance is your top priority, the Kiwi Glider's eco-performance fabric options may be a better fit. If material luxury and design presence are the priority, the Sunday delivers.
Note: Stock is in a constant flux. Some options may be 1 to 2 months or more out of stock. If you need the chair sooner than later, please call for updated stock levels.

A Note about Lead Times
Some furniture is handmade just for you by expert craftsmen. That being said -- good
things take time. Typical lead times are about 8-12 weeks from most workshops,
and white glove delivery can add between 2 weeks to the lead time, depending on
the distance the pieces are traveling. Lead times are estimates only. We quote
lead times to the best of our ability, but a number of unforeseen issues can
delay orders. Lead times are not guaranteed. Shipping times are not included in
estimated standard lead times.
******Important Please Read*******
Receiving & Inspecting Your White Glove or Curbside/Threshold Delivery
On the day you receive your furniture, it is important to remember to take the
time to inspect your delivery carefully. You are responsible for properly describing any and all damages on the shipper's waybill or delivery receipt. If
you don't note the damage, it gives us very limited recourse to assist you afterwards.
Our shippers go to great lengths to avoid damage, but it's possible it can occur. Please review the following guidelines to inspect your furniture while
the shipper is present:
-Whether your order has been specified for white glove delivery or curbside delivery, it is important to open all packaging and inspect every piece before signing the waybill/delivery receipt and the delivery team leaves your home.
-If your furniture has been boxed, inspect the boxes for damage. If the boxes show
any evidence of damage or heavy wear, note this on all copies of the shipper’s
waybill/delivery receipt. A damaged box could be a sign of hidden damage.
-If the delivery driver refuses to wait while you inspect the furniture, note on the waybill/delivery receipt, “driver refused to wait for inspection of
contents. Final inspection for damage will be made when packages are opened.”
-Document any issues or damage (no matter how minor) in detail on the shipper’s waybill
and ask the delivery driver to co-sign the waybill/receipt.
-Minor damage like a scratch or even replacement of a door or drawer, is best handled
through repairs which can easily be done at your home or performed by furniture
medics on behalf of the shipper.
-If the damage is substantial, refuse the item and have the shipper return it to the sender for repair or replacement
-If your shipment is missing any pieces call us immediately at 646 290 5508 and have the driver note the shortage on the waybill. Advise us of any missing
pieces and we will trace the shipment. If the missing items cannot be located within a reasonable time, the missing items will be re-ordered.
-If your shipment is missing any hardware call us immediately and have the driver note the missing hardware on the waybill. Hardware can be sent directly to your home.
***Not sure what to do?***
-If you need assistance with damage at the time of delivery, call us at 646 290 508.
-Email us digital photos of any damage so that we can best determine how to resolve
for you. Email photos to support@babesta.com
-If you do not inspect your furniture on arrival and do not note any damage on the
delivery receipt/waybill, we do not have recourse to assist you with repair or replacement. Please take the time to document any issues.
-If you sign the delivery slip without any written comments you are indicating that your delivery arrived in perfect condition
