DISCOVER WHICH HUGS ARE BEST FOR YOUR BABY
Waking to your distressed baby during each night quickly drains your energy and affects your wellbeing.
Your baby's startle reflex can disrupt their sleep cycles, but when they can roll and swaddling is no longer safe.
You need a solution to help transition from swaddling to free arms - without losing sleep.
Our unique designs provide a safe and gentle way to calm their startle reflex by keeping Houdini arms gently tucked away and assist their transition out of swaddling when they are ready.
Here's an overview of the products we recommend for your baby's age and developmental stage:
