Abstract: An infant support pad composed, for example, of a plastic foam and including a first embodiment for use with infant retaining devices such as automobile safety seats, strollers, high-chairs, swings, and the like; and which includes a second reclining embodiment for use in hospitals and in cribs for small infants. The support pad of the invention serves to keep the neck, head and entire body of the infant from involuntary movement, and it cradles the infant from head to bottom. The infant support pad is constructed in a manner such that the infant fits directly into the pad, and the pad is shaped to extend over the sides of the head of the infant and engage the head as an ear-muff, and to prevent the head, neck and entire body of the infant from moving side to side.
