Meet Celeste: Our electric nursery chair
Thoughtfully designed to support your journey from pregnancy to parenthood, the Celeste Electric Nursery Chair delivers comfort that feels like a warm hug, in chair form. A whisper-quiet glide, swivel and electric recline system let you find your perfect position at the touch of a button - no pushing or effort required (a dream for postpartum recovery).
With a cloud-soft headrest, supportive armrests, and cushion included, Celeste feels like it knows what you need before you do.
Plus, handy USB-A & USB-C charging ports and an extra-long 3.4m power lead keep your essentials close, wherever you place your chair. Available in both White Bouclé and Wheat Marle, it’s a beautiful, sanctuary-like statement in any nursery.
The Celeste is available online at babyrest.com and in-store through various baby retailers across Australia and New Zealand.

Meet Amelia: Our manual nursery chair
The Amelia Manual Nursery Chair offers luxuriously comfortable support, timeless design and a generous 150kg weight capacity, making it perfect for solo snuggles and big-kid cuddles. Manual glide, swivel and recline functions let you move naturally and intuitively through feeds and rest moments, with a tall backrest and curved armrests that cradle you in all the right places.
Wrapped in our signature White Bouclé, its sculptural shape and plush cushion elevate your nursery space while creating a calming haven that feels like bliss from the moment you sit down.
The Amelia is exclusive to Baby Bunting stores.
Side-by-side comparison
How to choose based on your lifestyle needs
-
Is cost your main deciding factor?
Choose Amelia. At $969, she offers luxe comfort and beautiful glider-recliner functionality. Great for parents who want quality without stretching the budget.
-
Planning (or recovering from) a c-section or want as much postpartum support as possible?
Choose Celeste. Her electric recline system means no pushing, no straining your core, no awkward adjusting. Just seamless support at the touch of a button. Ideal for the fourth-trimester and beyond.
-
Planning to pump - even part-time?
Choose Celeste. Her built-in USB-A and USB-C charging ports are perfect for powering pumps and white-noise machines - no extra extension cords needed. Less juggling, more bonding.
-
Love the convenience of connection at 2am?
Choose Celeste. When the rest of the world is asleep and it’s just you and your baby, staying connected can feel like a lifeline. With charging at your fingertips, you won’t need to move (or wake your little one) to stay in touch or track your feeds.
-
Need a chair that holds up long-term?
Both deliver. Both Celeste and Amelia feature a generous 150kg weight capacity, durable premium upholstery and movement designed to support newborn feeding right through to bedside stories (even with multiple kids) and beyond - so select based on function and feel.
So, which BabyRest nursery chair is right for you?
The answer comes down to how you love to live, rest and connect with your little one.
Whether you’re drawn to the intuitive, electric ease of Celeste, or the simplistic comfort of Amelia, you can trust that you’re choosing premium comfort, long-lasting quality and expert-backed design.
