    Comforters

    Introducing your little one to a comforter has many benefits.

    Comforters have a powerful ability to make children feel more secure, they even have that strong trigger to make them instinctively yawn or snuggle down for bed as they are handed their comforter. 

    Our huge range of comforters include our own award winning Sleepytots that will encourage your child to find their own dummy. No more dummy runs! Other popular comforters parents love are the Lulla Doll and Cuski!

    Remember to follow safe sleeping guidelines.

    Improve Your Baby's Sleep with Comforters

    Baby comforters can help in several ways to improve your baby’s sleep and overall sense of calm and relaxation when it’s time for a nap or longer rest.

    No matter the comforter you go with, each is designed to be soft and huggable, providing babies with a means of more easily self-soothing and falling into a deeper, more peaceful sleep. 

    The longer a baby uses a comforter, the stronger the association with sleep will become. In time, just the sight of a comforter can be enough to tell your baby it’s time for some shuteye.

    With many of these comforters, you can place them in your clothes or next to you as you sleep for a few nights so that they absorb your scent. The presence of your scent is yet another component that makes comforters for babies such a worthwhile investment. 

    They help your little ones sleep with a greater sense of security while ensuring you can get more rejuvenating sleep yourself. This means more energy for you to manage the needs of your baby day to day.

    Types of Baby Comforters

    We stock a range of baby comforters, with each type offering specific benefits and varying uses. All of them are great options as sleeping companions for your little ones.

    Sleepytot Comforter

    The Sleepytot Comforter focuses on providing a huggable, soft companion that a baby can hold or even use as a pillow. It includes four velcroed paws where dummies and/or teethers can be attached. 

    Because it securely holds onto these items, it means you won’t have to worry about midnight dummy runs. If your baby needs to self-soothe, the Sleepytot Comforter keeps one nearby. This particular comforter is recommended for babies of around 7 months and older.

    The Lulla Doll

    The Lulla Doll is a soother and sleep companion for babies of all ages. It’s a small doll made of soft materials that are gentle and inviting to babies and young ones. It also includes a sound box inside that plays soothing sounds of real-life breathing and a heartbeat reminiscent of what they hear when resting on a parent’s chest.

    For the first 12 months of a baby’s life, the Lulla Doll is best placed on the outside of a cot or on a nearby shelf to provide soothing sounds. Once your baby is 12 months or older, they can freely hold and hug the Lulla Doll as they rest. 

    Cuski

    The Cuski is a simple, huggable comforter that’s made from incredibly soft terry cotton that babies can hold onto during sleep and breastfeeding to help them feel calmer.

    It’s suitable for babies of all ages and is a great complement to (or substitute for) a security blanket. Before giving the Cuski to your little one, spend a couple of days keeping it in your clothing or near you during sleep to instil it with your scent. 

    With its unrivalled softness and ability to absorb your smell, it’s a great option for helping little ones calm down for restful sleep.
