A Calm "Quiet Zone" for the Whole Family
Create a sanctuary of calm with our Double Size Brazilian Cotton Hammock. Handcrafted by The Mexican Hammock Company, this roomy hammock offers families, carers, and NDIS participants a predictable, comfortable spot to switch off from the noise of daily life.
Unlike synthetic camping hammocks, this is made from soft, breathable, colour-fast cotton. Its dense weave provides a supportive cradle without pressure points, making it an ideal tool for regulation after school or work. Whether used for shared reading with a child or solo downtime, it blends beautifully into Australian homes without the "therapy gear" look.

Common Questions
Will this fit two people?
Yes. It is a genuine double size, designed comfortably for shared lounging or a very spacious solo lay.
Is it okay to leave outdoors?
Cotton is a natural fiber. While it loves a sunny day, it should not be left out in the rain or damp overnight. Store it dry and under cover to ensure it lasts for years.
Is this good for sensory needs?
Many families find it excellent for sensory regulation. It provides gentle vestibular input (swaying) without the full enclosure of a cocoon swing, which can be less overwhelming for some.
Do I need a stand?
You need something to hang it from! If you don't have strong trees or beams, we highly recommend adding a Steel or Wooden Frame to your order for an easy, portable setup.
