Abstract

A pillow that is worn on a body of a parent or caregiver to support the head of an infant or young child. The pillow includes a U-shaped shell having a central region and first and second legs that extend outwardly from opposite ends of the central region in a same direction as one another. A gap is bounded and defined the first leg, the central region, and the second leg. When the pillow is worn, the central region rests behind the parent or caregiver's neck and one of the first and second legs extends over each shoulder and onto their chest. Closure tabs secure the legs to one another. A separate pad is removably received within each of the first leg and the second leg. The central region is made up of two layers of fabric and is free of any pads or filler materials.
