Baby Sleep Tips
Sleep is crucial for your new baby's healthy development. Discover these guidelines for creating the perfect slumber, answering the question of how to help your baby sleep.
Feel the Room
Aim for a temperature that's ideal for a lightly clothed adult. Your baby will drift off easily when they’re snug and comfortable.
Dress Them Lightly
Too many layers can leave your baby sweaty and irritable, which does little to help them sleep. Remember that babies usually need just one more layer than adults, so a vest with a cotton sleep sack should suffice for most climates.
Furnish the Floor
A soft rug or wall-to-wall carpeting will help to warm up the room and create a lovely play space on the floor. Rugs or carpet can also help to muffle noise, helping to create a quieter sleep environment.
Keep the Room Dark
Hanging blinds or darkening shades will keep out the early morning light. Installing dimmer switches in your baby's room is another way to create a calming atmosphere. Dim the lights when you're preparing your baby for sleep, lowering them more and more as bedtime approaches.
Leave on a Little White Noise
Some babies sleep better with the washing machine or the vacuum cleaner running, so feel free to go about your regular routine during naptime or after bedtime. The consistent noise is soothing and will help your baby sleep.
You don't need expensive décor or fancy gadgets to create a cosy sleep haven in your new baby's room. Follow your little one’s cues and they’ll soon be dreaming!
