CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR RANDOM WINNER – AMY!! Amy, we will send you an e-mail to get your mailing address and send you your new Swing By Me right away! Thanks, everyone for entering, comments are now closed — check back here at the Graco blog (or subscribe) to learn about more ways to win Graco products!

Let me start by saying that this swing has the right name! It really does allow you to keep baby right by your side.  New mommy Deanna is going to tell you more about this later on, but I’m going to give you a sneak peek into the ingenious features that are built into the Swing by Me™ (shout out to our awesome swing engineers!!)

1) Imagine you are sitting on the couch, but want to still be able to see every inch of baby and make eye contact (sound familiar?)… Swing by Me™ has this full-height position.

2) Now imagine you are ready for playtime – you just want to sit on the floor and enjoy your baby up close and personal… Swing by Me™ has this lowered position just for that.

3) Finally, imagine that you just need to get your baby swing out of the way for a while… well, Swing by Me™ has a position for that as well!  Between you and me, we can call it the “we have guests coming over in 10 minutes and we need more space!” position.

  12. Kristina July 27, 2011 at 9:17 pm #

    I love the height adjust feature!!! I had a Fisher Price swing with my daughter and didn’t like that I couldn’t adjust the height of the swing, I would LOVE to have this swing for our new baby!

  13. Tonia July 27, 2011 at 9:34 pm #

    I absolutely love how comcact this swing fold down to compared to some others. Especially when living in a smaller home where space saving is crucial. The owl are oh so adorable and ever since I saw the movie The Legend of Gahoule Ive had the dream of doing my soon to be sons nursery in owls. They are the spirit of wisdom and are really cute.

  15. Proud Papa July 27, 2011 at 10:54 pm #

    As a soon to be new dad this swing would be a great comprimise to the decor my wife and are are struggling to settle on. we have yet to know what gender our baby is because we are wanting it to be a surprise and its perfect cuz itd be great for a boy or girl. Weve had many a fight over what kind/style of items to get and I think shed get a real HOOT outa this. :)

  16. Jesse July 27, 2011 at 11:15 pm #

    I love that it is portable! Really great feature for travel to see the family and for vacations.

  17. Laura July 28, 2011 at 12:34 am #

    I just love the portable feature! Not only is it great when you want to tidy up the house before guests arrive but great for on the go travel to Grammie and Grampie’s house.

  18. Martha Branion July 28, 2011 at 12:36 am #

    Love the varying heights. My granddaughter likes to see everything and everyone!

  19. Vanessa July 28, 2011 at 1:03 am #

  21. Jessica Soto July 28, 2011 at 1:52 am #

    I love that it folds up!!!

  22. Suzy July 28, 2011 at 1:57 am #

    I like the fact that there is a removable infant body support for use with very small babies.

  23. Julieanne July 28, 2011 at 2:25 am #

    Swing by Me is magic by surprise! For stay-at-home mothers like me, no nanny at all and hubby is not always around to help, this baby gear is a lot of help! The Swing by Me in full-height position will allow me to look after my baby while on my side or closely near to me while doing household chores such as doing the laundry, cooking, washing the dishes or cleaning out in the kitchen. I don’t need to rush quickly at his room when he needs me but if I could have this, living with no nanny is Magic! This is totally a must-have for mommies.

  24. Nadine Reinders July 28, 2011 at 2:52 am #

    I love this swing, especially the height of it. What a great feature!

  25. Kendra July 28, 2011 at 3:06 am #

    My favorite feature is the adjustable height. Perfect for portability which is so important with a newborn.

  26. Brenda July 28, 2011 at 5:22 am #

    I love thefact thats its unisex so when you know longer need it you may give it to someone else because its a pretty awesome swing that coverts to a full and travel that comes it very handy for any parent on the go or at home. I love it

  27. Jennifer July 28, 2011 at 1:29 pm #

    I love how comfortable it looks. It is very compact which would be perfect, because we have a two year old and one on the way, so we have LOTS of toys and such around the house. And most of all I LOVE the adjustable height. Good for when my daughter will be around the new baby to put her higher and lower to the ground when she is not!

  28. Tina July 28, 2011 at 4:13 pm #

    I love all the different features of this. We have a very small trailer so the storage feature is a must for us!

  29. Bernadette Sauve July 28, 2011 at 5:24 pm #

    Love that it is portable and you are able to adjust the height. Going to love seeing my first grandchild (grandson) in it soon..

  30. TarynP Pisaneschi July 28, 2011 at 5:41 pm #

    Wow!! Where do I begin? As a new mommy to be In an apt with limited space, This has some very desirable features! I love how the seat lowers but even more, I love how it folds up. When you have a small space, practicality is everything and thus swing sure solves a handful of issues. I cannot wait to try it out!!

    I like the fact that it folds up. Space is at a premium in the house, especially with another one on the way in October! Go Graco!

  32. Adrienne B. July 28, 2011 at 8:23 pm #

    love that it folds and is portable!

  33. Lisa C July 28, 2011 at 11:52 pm #

    like that it folds up to save space

  34. Rhonda Boutte July 29, 2011 at 12:33 am #

    I am in love with the fact that it is portable and the various speeds this swing has! It is great for busy moms!

  35. Cynthia DuBose July 29, 2011 at 1:52 am #

    I love the “quick clean up” feature. As a first time mom, I must admit I am a bit nervous about how much space all my baby’s toys, strollers, high chair, etc. will take up. Being able to quickly condense the swing is a great and fast way to make my home “adult-friendly” again :)

    Comfortable, compact and adjustable. What more could you ask for?

  38. Linda Marler July 29, 2011 at 6:04 am #

    There is absolutely nothing about this swing that isnt good, I have two grandchildren being born soon and this would be perfect for both of them , the adjustable heights is so perfect, but the ability to get it out of the way quickly is even better !

  39. Vanna July 29, 2011 at 10:28 am #

    I love that the height of the swing is adjustable! It’s great encouragement for more 1 on 1 play between baby and mommy/daddy/siblings! Amazing concept! :)

  40. Ashley July 29, 2011 at 12:41 pm #

    What is NOT to love about this swing!? The height adjustment is an attention grabber, and the features from there get better and better!

  41. Claire Weisse July 29, 2011 at 2:42 pm #

    I love that the height is adjustable and enables you to sit on the floor, eye to eye with Babe :)

  42. wendy jardon July 29, 2011 at 3:03 pm #

    i love how this swing folds up so easy!

  43. Laura Andry July 29, 2011 at 5:30 pm #

    I love the portability of this swing. Traveling with a baby requires a lot of STUFF. Anything that saves me space and time gets two thumbs up in my book.

  44. Jill July 29, 2011 at 5:30 pm #

    Foldable and machine washable!

  45. Jessica July 29, 2011 at 5:31 pm #

    I love the fact that it folds up so you can have extra space. When our son had a swing it was so big and bulky. One like this would be great for our next child. :)

  46. Misty Buchanan July 29, 2011 at 5:31 pm #

    I like the idea of this swing. Thanks for the chance to win.

  47. Felicia July 29, 2011 at 5:31 pm #

    I love that the swing can be at full height position and then you can change it to a lowered position.

  48. Alicia Craft July 29, 2011 at 5:31 pm #

    This looks like an awesome new swing! I love all of the features, but my favorite is how you can adjust the height. Graco impresses again.

  49. crystal howell July 29, 2011 at 5:31 pm #

    i lvoe this swing its so uniue , it folds up and so useful

  50. Sarah Murphy July 29, 2011 at 5:32 pm #
