A support for selectively seating and protecting an infant while developing balance and motor control in a seating position comprises a free standing support body having a substantially planar base, front, rear and opposed side surfaces. The front surface includes a backrest portion which is inclined at an acute angle with respect to the base and spaced-apart side arms which extend forwardly in the plane of the base from opposite sides of the front surface. The support body has sufficient weight and stability to inhibit movement or tipping of the support body. A seat cushion is independent of the support body and is attachable thereto in a first position and a second position. In the first position, the seat cushion combines with the support body to form a rearwardly inclined infant seat having a seat surface formed by a top surface of the seat cushion and a backrest surface formed by the backrest portion of the support body. In the second position, the seat cushion is remote from the backrest portion to provide a space enclosed at the rear by the backrest portion of the support body, at the sides by the opposed side arms, and at the front by the seat cushion. This space is adequate to accommodate an infant in a substantially unsupported sitting position for developing balance and motor control while providing a surrounding cushion to help prevent injury due to a fall in any direction from a seating position within the surrounding cushion. The side arms may also be provided with touch and sound toys which are either built into the support or firmly attachable thereto.
