The Moment Every
Parent Recognizes

Where
Burplee Fits
The Burplee Lounger by Vonu was designed by a parent who went through the exact same tummy time frustration.
It’s built for awake, supervised moments like tummy time, post-feed settling, and calm bonding.
Here’s what makes it different:
40° incline mimics the natural angle of
being held over your shoulder, the
position babies already love
Memory foam supports head, neck, and
torso so baby can focus on building
strength, not fighting gravity
Gentle elevation also helps with gas and
reflux pressureafter feeding
Designed for 0–9 months, grows with
your baby through early milestones
It’s not a gadget. It’s thoughtful design around how babies actually develop.
