A support assembly for supporting a baby for ease of feeding, the support assembly including a chassis with supporting legs and a subframe carrying an elongate support element for holding a baby, wherein: the supporting legs are spaced apart to accommodate a carer's legs there between; the support element holds the baby in an end-to-end relation relative to the support element, whilst avoiding any crib fencing or other structure that would impede intimate contact between a carer adjacent an elongate side of the support element and the baby on the support element; and the subframe is coupled to the chassis to pivot about a transverse axis of the support element whereby to allow the support element to tilt relative to the chassis, such that the feet and head of the baby pivot simultaneously in opposite directions when the support element is tilted to thereby allow the baby's stomach to be positioned below its mouth, as required, for ease of feeding.
