At Bumbo, Everything Begins with Family
For over 20 years, Bumbo has been dedicated to creating products that make parenting moments easier and more joyful. Our mission is simple: to design thoughtful, dependable baby gear that supports children’s development and gives parents peace of mind.
Every product we create starts with feedback from parents and is developed in partnership with pediatric specialists and orthopedic surgeons. This ensures that each design promotes healthy posture, comfort, and confidence—because parents deserve peace of mind, and children deserve the best start possible.
Thank you for trusting us with your precious little ones. We’re honored to be part of your family’s journey and look forward to growing with you.
Where It All Began
A curious grandson and an engineer grandfather—that’s where the Bumbo story began. In 1996, a loving grandfather noticed his grandson struggling to sit upright and engage with the world around him. Inspired to help, he created the first Bumbo Floor Seat, a simple yet revolutionary design that gave babies the support they needed to explore their surroundings.
What started as a family invention has grown into a global brand, trusted by parents for over two decades. Today, Bumbo continues to innovate while staying true to its roots of care, quality, and family-first values.

Frequently asked questions
What should I do if I have one of the recalled Bumbo Floor Seats?
Unfortunately, we are no longer providing repair kits for these seats. Any old, recalled seats without straps should be disposed of. Please refer to the text at the top of this page for more information about the voluntary recall of 2012.
Can I leave my baby unattended when using the restraint belt?
You must always stay with and watch your baby during use. Even when the restraint belt is used, a baby can cause the Bumbo Floor Seats to slide or move.
With the restraint belt can I put my baby in the Bumbo Floor Seat on a raised surface, in a bathtub or in a car?
No. It is important to follow all of the instructions and have a clear understanding of the product warnings on the seat and included in the product manual. The Bumbo Floor Seat is designed to be used only on the floor. Do NOT use the Bumbo Floor Seat on any raised surface such as tables, counters, chairs, or beds to prevent risk of serious injury from falls.
The Bumbo Floor Seat is not a replacement for other baby products. Do not use as a high chair. Do not use as a bath seat or in a kiddie pool. Using the Bumbo Floor Seat in or near water can lead to drowning. Do not use as a car seat.
Can I use my Bumbo Floor Seat as a booster seat?
No. It is important to follow all of the product instructions and have a clear understanding of the new warning sticker provided with the Repair Kit. The Bumbo Floor Seat is designed to be used only on the floor. Do NOT use the Bumbo Floor Seat as a booster seat or in place of a highchair. The Bumbo Floor Seat should never be used on raised surfaces.
What is the difference between the Bumbo Multi Seat and the Bumbo Floor Seat?
The age range and functions of the two seats are fundamentally different. The Bumbo Floor Seat is recommended for babies who are 3-12 months old that can support their own neck, and the Bumbo Multi Seat is recommended for babies who are 6 months to 36 months old and can sit unassisted (supporting their own head and back). The Multi Seat can also be used as a booster seat, as it comes with adjustable chair straps, whereas the Floor Seat can only be used on the floor. A parent should be within arms reach of the child while in either seat.
