All you need for baby’s night sleep

Cots, mattresses, and wonderful sleep aids to lull your little one to the land of Nod

Everyone needs a good night’s sleep.  But for the parents of young children and babies, a night’s sleep is a precious commodity.  At Baby Accessories, we know just how important rest is for both little ones and their parents.  And while we cannot literally rock your baby to sleep, we do have a selection of amazing products that will induce sleepy time with comfort and practicality. 

Baby sleep solutions.  

For many new parents, the most functional, attractive, and useful solution to baby sleeping is the co-sleeper or beside-me crib.  This allows you to sleep close to your child without having to be in the same bed. This can be used as a normal crib with 4 sides or a co-sleeper next to your bed allowing your baby to safely sleep in their own space while you stay close for security, breast feeding or just a cuddle. The BeByMe co sleeper is designed for use from birth to 9kg (approx. 6mts) or until your baby can sit up unassisted and has the added advantage of folding easily into its handy travel bag so your baby can sleep in the same surroundings even if you’re on the move.

There are a wide variety of Moses baskets, cots, and toddler beds available to make your tiny ones sleep comfortably and snug.  We stock the most popular brands, and our trained staff can assist you in finding the sleeping solution that best fits yours and your family needs.  We can also advise on cots and beds that will see you through from birth to school age.  When a cot seems too big a space for a wee tiny baby, we have a range of sleeping pods or nests that snuggly fit around baby.  The Sleep Tight Baby Bed also gives a spacious and safe overnight sleeping area with solid detachable base and side panels that secure your little one from rolling out of a bigger bed. With materials that have been sourced for their excellent breathability and anti-bacterial qualities, you can rest assured that your baby is safe and protected at all times. The Sleep Tight Baby Bed is also super portable and comes with a luxury carry bag, that will be a perfect companion in travels and where you may have to lay your child in a bigger bed away from home. 

Mattresses

A baby mattress should be firm and not soft. It should fit the cot/Moses basket snuggly and without any gaps at the sides.   Here at Baby Accessories, we stock a wide range of baby mattresses to suit all shapes and sizes. Every mattress has been carefully selected to ensure that breathability, durability, support, and maintenance are high priorities. Before purchasing a cot, cradle or Moses’ basket mattress, you should consider the frequency of use and its durability if it intended for everyday use rather than the odd overnight stay.  Maintenance of the mattress after spills and leaks should be a consideration.  Browse the range of foam, spring, and hypo-allergenic mattresses on offer here and please feel free to contact any member of the sales team to discuss the properties of each mattress and your own particular wish list.   A good mattress can mean a good night’s sleep for your little one, and the whole family.

Sleeping Aids 

If you have a baby that sleeps through the night, you are one of the luckier parents and probably should keep that luck it to yourself and not share with those parents who crave a few uninterrupted hours.  A good night’s sleep is elusive for the most parents at some time or another.  We carry some practical solutions with simple products that may make the difference in getting a few hours  shut eye. Many harassed parents swear by the introduction of black out curtains and blinds, particularly when there is harsh outside light or when the seasons are changing and summer sun peeps through at the early hours.  A warm bath is a great addition to a bedtime routine as it soothes and relaxes. Following a warm bath, a baby's body temperature starts to cool, which can help your infant fall asleep more easily. The nursery should ideally be a calm space where sleep comes easy to tired little kiddies.   Lullabies, white noise or womb sounds    may help in making a restful, serene and soothing place for sleep to drop slowly.
