The Chatsworth Glider Nursing Chair and Footstool is an award-winning, premium seating system engineered specifically for modern nurseries, primary schools, childminders, and early years environments. Combining unparalleled ergonomic versatility with commercial-grade durability, the Chatsworth features an advanced multi-position recline system and a synchronized gliding mechanism. This professional-grade chair creates a deeply supportive, tranquil environment for parents and childcare practitioners during daily feeding, winding, and soothing routines.
This versatile glider stands out with its unique 7-position reclining backrest, allowing caregivers to effortlessly adjust their posture for optimal comfort by simply lifting both armrests simultaneously. To ensure maximum facility hygiene, the chair features a practical maintenance design with completely removable arm and seat cushion covers that can be unzipped and hand-washed to manage everyday milk stains, spills, and fingerprints. Deep storage pockets are integrated into both armrests, providing a convenient, accessible spot for record logs, feeding diaries, and essential nursery supplies.
Built for exceptional structural longevity under rigorous daily workloads, the Chatsworth is constructed from high-grade solid rubberwood—a sustainable, dense timber harvested as a by-product of the latex industry. The framework is designed with an elegant, traditional sleigh back configuration that brings a timeless aesthetic to any quiet room layout. For absolute safety assurance, the unit features an easy-access gliding brake and is fully certified to meet strict BS 5852: Part 2: 1982 fire retardant laws and BS EN 12520:2010 safety standards.

Easy Assembly and Storage
The Chatsworth Glider Chair and Footstool system is engineered for simple, straightforward assembly, typically taking between 30 minutes to an hour to complete. Every unit is supplied with a comprehensive, easy-to-follow instruction manual booklet along with all the necessary heavy-duty hardware. Please note that because glider cushions are tightly packed for transit protection, they may initially appear slightly compressed; simply allow a few days for the high-density padding to naturally expand and settle back into its true ergonomic shape.
