Elvie Rise

Willow Blossom Holdco Limited / United Kingdom / Hall 11.2 | G21

Introducing Elvie Rise, the smart bouncer that transforms into a bassinet without moving baby. Elvie Rise can be used as an automated or manual bouncer that offers babies a stimulating, safe space to soothe and play. Once baby starts to look tired, parents don’t need to move them to a separate sleep product. Elvie Rise gently transitions into a bassinet with a firm, flat mattress (following guidance from AAP) with retractable straps and breathable sides, making this bassinet the perfect 3-in-1 sleep solution. SootheLoopTM technology records and repeats the bounce you input - soothing your baby only you know how. Plus, control automated bouncing via a smart app. In bassinet mode* baby can sleep safe and sound around the clock. *Product suitable for sleep in bassinet mode only. Bouncer mode is not safe for sleep

Womy Sleeper baby monitor device placed next to a wooden crib with a beige mattress and a woven rug underneath

Womy Sleeper

Spylo BV / Netherlands / Hall 11.2 | G23

Womy Sleeper is a safe, patented innovation that helps babies fall asleep naturally – in their own bed. A thin mat under the mattress connects to an external device, the Breather, which gently "breathes" air in and out. This mimics the calm rhythm of a parent’s chest, without electronics in the crib. The motion, combined with soothing sounds like heartbeats or waves, creates a sense of safety and promotes independent sleep. It switches off automatically after 20 minutes and can restart via a built-in crying sensor. Operation is possible via the Breather or an intuitive app. Developed with neonatologists, pediatricians and ergonomists, Womy is certified by Intertek and meets EU and German safety standards. 78% of test parents said their baby could fall asleep independently and safely. Womy fits any standard crib (60×120 cm) and supports the baby’s sleep development in the first year. Thanks to a circular rental model, Womy is both sustainable and accessible. The product is reused across families, reducing waste. In February 2025, Womy Sleeper won the Baby Innovation Award in the Netherlands.
