1. A child motion device comprising: a support frame comprising a base portion configured for resting on a support surface, an upright portion of the support frame extending upward from the base portion, and a frame hub mounted at a top end of the upright portion of the support frame opposite the base portion;a pair of swing arms, each having a first end pivotally coupled to the frame hub of the support frame, an upright swing arm portion suspending generally downward from the first end, and a base support portion extending cantilevered from the upright swing arm portion; anda child support portion detachably coupled to the cantilevered base support portions of the pair of swing arms such that a swinging side-to-side motion of the pair of swing arms generates in the child support portion a gliding side-to-side motion;wherein the child support portion comprises a lower support portion comprising at least one support arm and a connection hub for detachably coupling to the cantilevered base support portions of the pair of swing arms, and first and second base frame support members attached at opposite ends of the lower support portion, whereby the child support is reconfigurable between a first mode wherein the child support portion is coupled to the support frame and a second mode wherein the child support portion is detached from the support frame and is supported by the first and second base frame support members on a support surface independent of the support frame. 2. The child motion device of claim 1, the base portion of the support frame comprising a substantially U-shaped member. 3. The child motion device of claim 1, the frame hub including a motor for inducing side-to-side motion in the pair of swing arms. 4. The child motion device of claim 1, the frame hub comprising an electronic control panel. 5. The child motion device of claim 4, the electronic control panel usable to control movement of the pair of swing arms. 6. The child motion device of claim 4, the electronic control panel usable to control vibration of the child support portion. 7. The child motion device of claim 4, the frame hub further including a display panel. 8. The child motion device of claim 7, the electronic control panel usable to provide entertainment via the display panel. 9. The child motion device of claim 4, the electronic control panel includes a capacitive touch sensor. 10. The child motion device of claim 1, the frame hub defining a recess for receiving an electronic device. 11. The child motion device of claim 1, further comprising a coupling portion attached to the base support portions of the swing arms for detachable coupling with the connection hub of the child support portion. 12. The child motion device of claim 11, further comprising a mechanism preventing release of the connection hub of the child support portion from the coupling portion when the child support portion is occupied. 13. The child motion device of claim 1, wherein an angle of between about 75°-120° is defined between the base portions of the support frame and the upright portion of the support frame. 14. The child motion device of claim 1, wherein an angle of about 85°-100° is defined between the base portions of the support frame and the upright portion of the support frame. 15. The child motion device of claim 1, wherein an angle of about 90° is defined between the base portions of the support frame and the upright portion of the support frame. 16. The child motion device of claim 1, wherein the pair of swing arms are oriented at an acute angle relative to one another such that a virtual pivot axis is defined at a location in space above the frame hub at an intersection of extension lines of the upright swing arm portions of the pair of swing arms. 17. The child motion device of claim 16, wherein the acute angle between the first and second swing arms is between about 0°-15°. 18. The child motion device of claim 16, wherein the acute angle between the swing arms is between about 4°-5°. 19. The child motion device of claim 1, the swinging side-to-side motion of the pair of swing arms generating in the child support portion a gliding side-to-side motion having a roll angle between about 1.5°-6°. 20. The child motion device of claim 1, the base portion and the upright portion of the support frame having a cross-section substantially oval in shape. 21. The child motion device of claim 1, the base portion and the upright portion of the support frame having a cross-section substantially polygonal in shape. 22. The child motion device of claim 1, the base portion and the upright portion of the support frame having a cross-section substantially elliptical in shape. 23. The child motion device of claim 1, the support frame having a maximum width of 28 inches. 24. The child motion device of claim 1, the support frame having a height between 16 and 45 inches. 25. The child motion device of claim 1, the child support portion pivotably coupled to the cantilevered base support portions of the pair of swing arms by roller bearings. 26. The child motion device of claim 1, the child support portion rotationally repositionable relative to the pair of swing arms. 27. The child motion device of claim 26, the child support portion rotationally repositionable relative to the pair of swing arms such that swinging side-to-side motion of the pair of swing arms generates in the child support portion a gliding front-to-back motion. 28. The child motion device of claim 1, the child support portion comprising one of a child seat and bassinet. 29. The child motion device of claim 1 further comprising a rechargeable battery. 30.
