A child motion device including a support frame, a frame hub coupled to the support frame, a gliding swing mechanism pivotally mounted to the frame hub, and a cantilevered child support portion pivotally mounted to the gliding swing mechanism. In example embodiments, the child support portion can be in the form of a child seat or a bassinet. In example embodiments, the child support portion can be oriented between multiple seat-facing orientations for providing either of a side-to-side gliding movement or a front-to-back gliding movement.

1. A child motion device comprising: a support frame comprising a base portion configured for resting on a support surface, and an upright portion extending from the base portion;a child support portion configured to support a child;a pair of swing arms having first ends pivotally coupled to the upright portion of the support frame and second ends coupled to the child support portion; anda coupling portion comprising a pair of spaced-apart channels configured for pivotally receiving the base support portions of the arms, wherein the coupling portion comprises first and second bearing supports for pivotally mounting the pair of swing arms within the channels, and wherein the coupling portion comprises a platform having a coupling ring configured for rotatable and removable engagement with the child support portion;wherein a pivoting side-to-side motion of the pair of swing arms generates a gliding side-to-side motion of the child support portion. 2. The child motion device of claim 1, wherein the swing arms extend generally parallel to each other. 3. The child motion device of claim 1, wherein the swing arms are angled inwardly relative to one another toward their first ends. 4. The child motion device of claim 3, wherein an angle of between about 0.5-15 degrees is defined between the swing arms. 5. The child motion device of claim 1, wherein each of the swing arms comprise an upright support portion, a transverse portion extending from the upright support portion, and a base support portion extending generally perpendicular relative to the upright support portion. 6. The child motion device of claim 5, further comprising a frame hub connected to the upright portion of the support frame, and wherein the transverse portions of the swing arms pivotally mount to the frame hub. 7. The child motion device of claim 1, wherein the child support portion is supported in a cantilevered manner by the swing arms. 8. A child motion device comprising a support frame comprising a base portion and an upright portion, the base portion configured for resting upon a support surface and the upright portion comprising a frame hub;a pair of swing arms having proximal ends pivotally coupled to the frame hub and distal ends;a coupling supported by the distal ends of the swing arms, wherein the coupling comprises a pair of channels each for receiving therein a respective one of the distal ends of the swing arms; anda child support portion configured for attachment to the coupling, whereby the coupling allows rotational repositioning of the child support portion relative to the support frame. 9. The child motion device of claim 8, wherein each of the swing arms comprises an upright support portion, a transverse portion generally positioned at an end of the upright support portion, and a base support portion extending generally perpendicular relative to the upright support portion. 10. The child motion device of claim 9, wherein the transverse portion of each swing arm pivotally mounts to the frame hub in a spaced-apart configuration and defining a first distance therebetween. 11. The child motion device of claim 10, wherein the distal end of each of the swing arms is received within a respective channel of the coupling, the channels being spaced apart and defining a second distance therebetween. 12. The child motion device of claim 11, wherein the first distance is smaller than the second distance such that the upright support portions of the swing arms are angled inwardly with respect to one another and define an angle therebetween. 13. The child motion device of claim 12, wherein the angle defined between the upright support portions is between about 1-15 degrees. 14. The child motion device of claim 13, wherein the angle is between about 4-5 degrees. 15. The child motion device of claim 11, wherein the first distance is substantially equal to the second distance such that the upright support portions are generally parallel to one another. 16. The child motion device of claim 8, wherein a pivoting side-to-side motion of the swing arms imparts a gliding side-to-side motion of the child support portion. 17. A child motion device comprising: a support frame;first and second swing arms pivotally connected to the support frame at upper ends thereof, wherein the upper ends of the first and second swing arms are spaced a first distance apart;a child support portion carried on lower ends of the first and second swing arms, wherein the lower ends of the first and second swing arms are spaced a second distance apart, the second distance being equal to or greater than the first distance; anda coupling mounted to the lower ends of the swing arms for releasably engaging the child support portion, wherein the coupling comprises a pair of channels configured for pivotally receiving the lower ends of the first and second swing arms. 18. The child motion device of claim 17, wherein the first distance is less than the second distance, whereby extension lines drawn through the upper ends of the first and second swing arms converge at a virtual pivot point above the support frame. 19. The child motion device of claim 17, wherein the first distance is substantially equal to the second distance, whereby extension lines drawn through the upper ends of the first and second swing arms are substantially parallel. 20. The child motion device of claim 17, further comprising a coupling mounted to the lower ends of the swing arms for releasably engaging the child support portion. 21. The child motion device of claim 20, wherein the coupling allows rotational repositioning of the child support portion relative to the support frame. 22. The child motion device of claim 17, further comprising an entertainment component mounted to the support frame. 23. The child motion device of claim 17, wherein the child support portion is selected from a child seat and a bassinet.
