Why Swaddle Up™?
Babies often use their hands to settle themselves to sleep, either by sucking on their fingers or gently rubbing their cheeks. Medical research has shown that these self-soothing instincts can result in better sleep, for longer.
Unlike traditional swaddles, the design of Love to Dream's Swaddle Up™ supports the natural sleep position of babies who like to have their Arms Up™ – enabling true Self-Soothing™, while still calming the startle reflex with the garment's snug, swaddle fit.
The twin zipper also makes nappy changing a breeze, with easy accessibility from the bottom zip. Then for feeding time, simply unzip from just the top to allow baby to use their hands.
Care instructions:
When to wash:
- Wash before first use.
- Wash garment immediately if it becomes soiled in any way (vomit, reflux, or leaky nappy, etc.)
- Wash immediately after every use if your baby chews, sucks, or drools on the garment (check the neckline & wings/cuff mittens).
- Otherwise, washing after every couple of sleeps is a good guideline to follow. This is up to a parent’s discretion.
How to wash:
- Close zipper before washing.
- Warm & gentle machine wash in wash bag with similar colours.
- Pull into shape after washing, before tumble drying/line drying.
- Tumble dry on low.
- Any garment with a TOG rating of 2.5 or higher – tumble dry inside out on second cycle for quicker drying.
- Warm iron if necessary.
- Do not soak or bleach garment, iron the zip, or dry clean.
Please note: The Love to Dream™ range has Fire Hazard Labelling on the packaging to comply with (New Zealand Product Safety Standards for children's nightwear). These warnings alert parents to the risk of fire danger and urge you to keep your child away from heat and flame when they are wearing the garment.
