Health Canada Recalls Simmons Baby Loungers Over Fall Hazard
Parents and caregivers across Canada are being urged to check their baby loungers after Health Canada announced a recall affecting thousands of Simmons Kozy and Nido products. The warning centres on a potential fall hazard because the products do not meet Canadian safety regulations.
The recall, published on October 22, 2026, covers specific baby nests and loungers sold in several colours. According to Health Canada, the affected products fail to meet the Cribs, Cradles and Bassinets Regulations, creating a risk that an infant could fall.
The company reported that 25,088 affected units were sold in Canada between January 2022 and September 2026. As of October 19, the company had received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
Which Products Are Included?
The recall covers Simmons Kozy models 59900 in grey and 59902 in taupe, along with Nido models 59950 in ivory, 59955 in taupe, 59960 in coconut milk and 59965 in moonbeam.
Parents and caregivers can check the model number on the product’s warning label and compare the UPC printed on the original packaging with Health Canada’s official recall notice. Checking these details is important because the recall applies to the listed products, not automatically to every infant lounger.
What Should Consumers Do?
Health Canada says consumers should immediately stop using an affected product and dispose of it safely so it cannot be used again. Recalled products must not be resold, redistributed or given away in Canada.
For questions about the recall, consumers can contact Jupiter Industries at 1-800-465-5795, Monday to Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern Time, or email [email protected].
TwikUp’s Perspective
Product recalls are most useful when families can quickly identify whether an item in their home is affected. Checking model numbers and original packaging can help prevent confusion, while sharing the official notice with other caregivers may help ensure the warning reaches everyone using the product.
Health Canada also reminds caregivers that babies should sleep on their backs on a firm, flat surface intended for infant sleep. Following that guidance remains important regardless of whether a particular product is included in this recall.
