The company’s comments, in its own words

(2/27/2024) Wildchild Stockholm, Inc.: The Wildchild team extends our deepest condolences to the family of the child involved in this report. Sadly, just like many other juvenile product companies, Wildchild has responded to and investigated a small number of tragic reports like this one. While the loss of any child is devastating, none of those reports have shown that our docks were the cause of those tragedies. The safety of children is of the utmost importance at Wildchild. We are committed to offering multi-functional solutions for families and, most importantly, to providing safe places for children and babies to lounge, play, and experience the world around them.
As a responsible corporate citizen, we have invested heavily in collaborating with the leading experts on research, testing, and product safety standards. We would like to emphasize that DockATot docks are intended for use while children are awake and under the supervision of a caretaker. They should not be used for sleep of any kind. Wildchild ceased marketing the Deluxe+ dock for any type of sleep in every country where it is sold years ago.
Wildchild fully supports the American Academy of Pediatrics’ guidelines on safe sleep for babies, including that babies should always be placed to sleep on their back in a bare crib or bassinet, without soft toys, pillows, blankets, or other soft bedding or products. Unfortunately, this report does not contain sufficient information to understand what may have occurred. We encourage consumers with questions or concerns about our products to contact us at hello@dockatot.com.
