This extra-wide chair from Babyletto tops our list is a must-have for moms with multiples or singletons. It is super roomy, great for nursing, sitting in for long periods, and even reading to older children. It will grow with your children, making it a solid investment. We love the beautiful fabric and the soft grey color. 

Some rockers can be pretty big eyesores – taking up a lot of space and not really delivering on an aesthetic that you’d like in your home. This rocker is perfect for the design-conscious couples who want a rocker without sacrificing style. The beautiful upholstered chair comes in several color options with complimentary wood rockers. 

This chair does it all. It’s super comfy, with the ability to rock, recline (almost to a full lay down position), and swivel. It’s easy to assemble and is made with really good quality fabric that’s easy to clean. It comes in some great unique color selections in addition to the more traditional cream and grey. 

If you love the look of mid-century modern furniture, this is the perfect clean and classic look with beautiful fabric, simple lines, and a wood base. It has a small footprint, which is perfect for smaller spaces and if you don’t have a ton of room in the baby’s nursery. 

Twin moms or taller parents will love the extra room that this double-wide rocker provides. The rocker definitely takes up a bit of space because it measures one and a half times as wide as a regular rocker. It comes mostly assembled which is a nice bonus. The design is clean and simple, perfect for both traditional and modern nurseries. 

This moderately priced rocker has a lot going for it. The chevron pattern is adorable, but if it’s not for you, there are quite a few color options available. The comfortable glider provides a smooth and gentle rocking motion, with convenient features like padded arm cushions and a pocket to store your belongings.

This semi upholstered rocking chair is a great option if you’re worried about keeping your rocker clean through the inevitable spit-up and accidents. A unique feature about this ottoman is that just like the rocker, it glides for a tandem rocking experience. The fabric is easy to wipe clean whenever it becomes stained. 

A pop of color is a great way to transform an otherwise bland nursery. This awesome rocking chair comes in three great colors that would work for both boys and girls. It has a modern and contemporary design and is made with comfortable fabric. 

This beautiful rocker is a best seller for many reasons. It comes with a bonus ottoman which is a must – I personally had a rocker without an ottoman and wished so many times I had something to pile my feet on. It’s made with soft and durable fabric that will last for years. It spins 360 degrees and also rocks back and forth smoothly. The beautiful neutral color will look great in any nursery. 

If you’re worried about stains, consider skipping the ivory and white options for a darker grey tweed like this option. The chair is very comfortable, with both rocking and swivel functions. While the ottoman doesn’t move, it’s a nice area to put your feet up for comfort during feedings or to relax. 

The nailhead design gives this somewhat traditional rocker a bit of a modern update. Not only can it work elsewhere in the home once it’s no longer needed in the nursery, but it will certainly be a statement piece in any nursery until then. It comes in two neutral colors – ivory and grey, and is a roomy seat great for sitting in for long periods. 

If you don’t want to spend a ton on a rocker, check out this reasonably priced option. It has all the functions of a more expensive chair, at a fraction of the cost. It even comes with a matching ottoman which is an added bonus. 

If you’re looking for a unique option, this design is a bit different than your typical rocker. The shape is so cozy and comfortable with a small footprint that won’t take up much space in a small room. 

While this rocker is definitely expensive, it’s worth the price point for a well-built piece of furniture that’s not only functional but also a beautiful piece of decor in any nursery or home. The rocker has a rose gold metal base and a removable lumbar pillow included. It comes in several other stylish colors if you’re not a fan of this oatmeal hue. 

This chair is well worth the higher price point as it seriously does it all. It rocks, reclines and swivels, so no matter what motion your baby and you prefer, you know you’ll be comfortable in this chair. The chair has some additional features like a hidden push-button control panel and a USB charging port in the side for the most convenience whenever you’re in the nursery.
