About Ergojojo – our story
ErgoJoJo’s journey started with two parents who were looking for a practical lamp for night time feeds.
When our son Jonathan was born we placed his cot next to our bed so we could safely sleep together and feed him easily during the night.
This caused limited space for a floor-standing lamp or bedside lamp, due to a lack of surface to place the lamp on.
As a qualified occupational therapist (OT), I was used to adapting environments to maximize function and comfort.
I knew what was needed here was an ergonomic solution – a clip-on lamp which we could attach to our bed head or his cot, but all we could find were clip-on lights designed for office use.
They were either too bright for night time feeds or featured a dull design that would be fine for a study lamp, but not inspiring for developing babies.
But my role has taught me to think outside the box, and I felt that it was my duty to create a breastfeeding lamp for all moms.
So with my partner’s support we created our own lamp! Small and practical with four brightness levels to protect a child’s eyes.
Curvy and clip-able so a baby can be fed in any room they find comfortable.
Convertible with a removable star shade to create a study lamp as the child grows.
After a long and bumpy journey we’re proud to share our ErgoJoJo lamp with you all and hope you enjoy its sturdy build and practicality as much as we do.
