Introducing the Whimzy Baby collection of swaddles - the perfect way to keep your little one snug and secure. Our swaddles are made with a blend of 66% rayon from bamboo, 28% cotton, and 6% spandex to make them soft, stretchy, and breathable, providing a sense of security and warmth that mimics the feeling of being in the womb. 

Our swaddles come in a standard size of 47 x 47", ideal for newborns. This size ensures a soothing and calming experience for your baby and prevents any startle reflexes from waking them up.

Tips for Choosing the Right Baby Swaddle

Material

Look for soft, breathable jersey stretch cotton or bamboo swaddles to keep your baby comfortable and relaxed. As we mentioned above, our swaddles are designed with these fabrics. So you choose them without any worries!

Design

When you choose a baby swaddle, ensure it is easy to use and comfortable enough for your baby. Our swaddles withstand multiple washes and uses without losing its shape or softness.

Swaddle Care Instructions

Here are some care instructions for swaddles:

• Always wash your swaddles before using them for the first time to remove any dirt or residue from the manufacturing process.
• Check the care label for washing instructions and follow them carefully. Most swaddles can be washed in a washing machine on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softener or bleach.
• To prevent damage to the fabric and ensure longevity, it's best to air-dry your swaddles. However, if you use a dryer, select a low-heat setting to avoid shrinkage or damage to the fabric.
• After washing, make sure your swaddles are completely dry before storing them. Keep them in dry places such as a drawer or closet to prevent mould, dust and dirt.

Benefits of Swaddling for Babies

Better Sleep

Swaddling helps infants sleep more soundly by reducing startling movements that can wake them up. Our snug-fit swaddle also provides a comforting sense of security that keeps them calm and secure while having sleep.

Less Crying

Swaddling can help reduce fussiness and crying in babies by providing them a sense of security and comfort. Our swaddle also helps babies feel warm and cozy, which can be especially beneficial during the colder months.

Reduced Risk of SIDS

When done correctly, it helps reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). A swaddle can keep a baby on their back while sleeping, which is the safest position.

How to Swaddle Your Baby Step-by-Step

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to swaddle your baby using one of Whimzy Baby swaddles:

• Spread the swaddle blanket out flat with one corner folded down.
• Place your baby on its back on top of the swaddle with its head above the folded corner.
• Straighten your baby's left arm, wrap the swaddle blanket's left side over their body, and put it snugly under their back on the right side.
• Fold the bottom of the swaddle blanket up and over your baby's feet, tucking it simply behind their shoulder.
• Straighten your baby's right arm and wrap the right side of the swaddle blanket over their body, tucking it easily under their left side.
• Make the swaddle comfortable but not overly tight. Your baby's hips should be able to move, and the legs should be able to bend.
• Finally, to secure the swaddle, fold the last corner and put it under the back of your infant.
• Remember always to place your baby on their back to sleep.
