Since the launch of the first Moonboon Motor, our cradle bouncers have helped families support calmer, more consistent sleep routines by gently bouncing baby hammocks and cradles. Motor Connect Basic builds on this foundation with a simple, smart solution that lets you control the movement of your baby’s cradle or hammock with ease.

The motor attaches directly to the spring of a Moonboon cradle or baby hammock and creates a gentle, rhythmic bouncing motion that helps keep your baby settled. You can operate the motor manually or control it through the Moonboon App, giving you flexibility to adjust the bouncing without disturbing your baby.

Using the app, you can quickly and easily adjust the bouncing speed and timer settings with just a few taps on your smartphone. You can also choose from pre designed sleep programs that automatically adjust the motor’s movement throughout your baby’s nap, supporting natural sleep rhythms and reducing the need for constant hands on soothing.

With timer functions that allow up to 12 hours of uninterrupted bouncing, the motor helps support longer and more predictable rest periods, giving caregivers more time and peace of mind. Designed, developed, and safety tested in Denmark, Motor Connect Basic delivers reliable performance in a nearly silent design that fits seamlessly into everyday family life.

The Moonboon App is available in the App Store and Google Play Store.

The Moonboon app is designed to make the use of our products even easier, by bringing you the touch-free start function for our Motor Connect, sleep programmes designed by experts and a whole baby and children sleep universe right to your mobile phone, so you have more and better sleep for your baby and for you available, through a simple click on your phone.

Our app is available in both the App Store and Google Play Store.

The three sleep programmes that can be found in our apps sleep universe, that the Motor Connect is equipped with, follow and reflect your baby’s natural sleep cycle for more and better sleep. The variations in the intensity of rocking will ensure that the baby’s sensory nervous system does not get used to the rocking motion, so you can continue to enjoy the benefits of the motor.

Short nap:
The short nap programme lasts 30 minutes and starts with high intensity rocking for 10 minutes, goes down to medium for 15 minutes and ends with very gentle rocking for 5 minutes. This supports the child for a short nap or one sleep cycle, after which the child continues to sleep without rocking or wakes up naturally on their own.

Long nap:
The long nap programme lasts 2.5 hours in total. It starts with high intensity rocking for 15 minutes, goes down to medium for 10 minutes, then a very gentle rocking at a low level for 15 minutes, then goes up to medium intensity for 10 minutes. This pattern is repeated 3 times, and each pattern corresponds to a typical sleep cycle for a baby under 1-2 years old.

Night:
The night sleep programme runs for a full 5.5 hours. It starts with high intensity rocking for 20 minutes, goes down to medium for 30 minutes, then a very gentle low-level rocking for 30 minutes, then goes up to medium intensity for 30 minutes. This pattern is repeated 3 times and corresponds to a normal baby sleeping through the night with the need for assistance approximately every 2 hours.

However, you can of course also set the duration and speed of the rocking motion of the Motor yourself, so you have the most flexibility at all times.
