Abstract: A baby hammock should be washable. Therefore, any non-washable components should be easily removable from the washable components. The reassembly of the components should be simple. For this purpose the present hammock has longitudinal, open ended pockets or channels extending along the upper edges of the side panels and of the end panels of the hammock body. Wooden rods, also referred to as dowels, are inserted into these pockets. The ends of the rods overlap at each corner of the hammock body. Ropes interconnect the overlapping rod ends and simultaneously serve as suspension elements. The ropes extend through one or several rings at the upper rope ends. The lower rope ends pass through and around the rod ends and are tied for a safe connection. The tying is easily untied for removing the rods.
