Manufactured by G & Y Company Limited of Hong Kong and imported/distributed by HoMedics USA LLC, of Commerce Township, MI, feet on the giraffe-shaped nightlight can detach, which can present a choking risk to small children, the CPSC said. There has been one incident of the feet detaching, but officials said there are no reports of choking or injury. Model MYB-N100GIR, the affected nightlights have the date code GP230118 or GP290318. The date code is located on the underside of the product. The nightlight is about three inches long, five inches wide, seven inches high, and weighs less than one pound.

In a separate case, the CPSC announced a recall on LÍLLÉbaby Active series baby carriers because a sliding chest-clip strap can detach from the shoulder strap, which can result in a child falling. One child fell as a result of the faulty strap, but was not injured. There were two other reports of chest-clip straps detaching, but no injuries were reported, the CPSC said.

Manufactured in China and imported by LÍLLÉbaby, LLC, of Golden, CO, the baby carriers sold on LILLEbaby.com and Amazon.com from September 2018 through October 2018 for about $160. Consumers purchased about 6,600 units.

Caregivers wear the carriers in question with the baby strapped into the front or back. The recalled carriers are the Active Series-Pro 6 in 1 in Space Dye Cobalt and Space Dye Grey and the Active All Seasons in Slate. “Each carrier has a yellow colored tag on the front neck support, outside of the carrier and on the back, chest clip pad, both of which have ‘LÍLLÉ’ printed in black lettering and ‘baby’ printed in white lettering on the label,” the CPSC said.
