The Science Behind The Light:
LatchLight keeps you and baby in sleepy-mode! It is designed to be close to red on the Kelvin scale to avoid melatonin disruption and has low lumens (brightness) to help parents and babies fall back asleep easily. Unlike other nightlights that spread light in all directions, LatchLight provides directional illumination with a narrow 40-degree angle, preventing it from shining into the eyes of newborns or parents.
FAQs from LatchLight:
What makes LatchLight the most sleep-friendly light for night feeds on the market?LatchLight features a warm colour temperature, low intensity output, and a narrow 40-degree beam angle, making it the best nightlight on the market for night feeds. Its simple on/off button is separate from the brightness selector, avoiding the hassle of cycling through settings. No phone app or sensitive tapping is needed, ensuring ease of use when you're exhausted. Every second of sleep counts!
Is LatchLight suitable for both breastfeeding and bottle-feeding?Yes! LatchLight is designed to support both breastfeeding and bottle-feeding. The built-in light illuminates the latch area on both the breast and bottle, making it easier to check that baby has a proper latch. Additionally, the silicone latch-assist tip helps adjust your baby's lips for a more optimal latch on both the breast and /or bottle. LatchLight is also versatile for other nighttime tasks, such as changing a nappy, providing a gentle and convenient light source.
What is the silicone latch-assist tip used for? The silicone latch-assist tip helps adjust your baby's lips to create a more optimal latch on both the breast and bottle. Once your baby has achieved a deep latch, some babies' lips may need adjustment to untuck and uncurl, improving suction. Traditionally, moms use their finger for this, a method known as “Digital Flanging” in the lactation community. However, since a newborn's lips are tiny and a mom's finger can be bulky and not always clean, the slim silicone latch-assist tip provides a more suitable and hygienic solution. The tip can be easily removed for cleaning and sterilizing. If your baby doesn't need any adjustments, you can simply remove the silicone tip altogether.
Is LatchLight safer for my baby? Yes! As parents, safety in our design was our top priority. Our commitment to safety is reflected in our rigorous adherence to the standards set by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). LatchLight plastic is BPA-free, and the only part that touches your baby’s mouth is made of FDA-food grade silicone. Additionally, LatchLight exceeds testing requirements for durability, flammability, and toxicity, ensuring the utmost safety for your baby.
How do I clean the LatchLight? Silicone Tip: Remove the silicone tip for full cleaning and sterilization, and it is dishwasher safe on the top rack!
Plastic Handle: Simply wipe it clean with common household wipes comprised of soap & water or 70% alcohol. It is also compatible with commonly found breast pump wipes.
