Feature Friday: Hands to Heart Sleep Swaddle™ + Sleep Sack

[The Little Seed]

After years of watching babies struggle when being swaddled hands down, Bay Area pediatric sleep consultant Angelique Millette knew that there had to be a better way to swaddle babies. Ten years of helping babies to sleep at night inspired her to create a swaddle that not only helped babies to sleep in the natural fetal tuck position but also made nighttime parenting easier. Her doctoral research gave her the science behind the swaddle. In the womb, babies developed with their hands up over their heart and it was after birth that babies hands were forced down at their hips for swaddling, an unnatural position for babies. With new evidence showing an increase in hip dysplasia due to too tight swaddling at hips, Angelique designed the Hands to Heart Sleep Swaddle™ + Sleep Sack, the first "hands up" swaddle. Angelique added in a zipper to the bottom of the sleep sack so baby doesn't need to be unswaddled during nighttime diaper changes. With a nod to keeping parenting simple, the swaddle wing can be removed when baby no longer needs to be swaddled and parents can continue to use the stand alone sleep sack. Parents will be happy to know that the Hands to Heart Sleep Swaddle is manufactured in the United States and is made of 100% organic non-dyed cotton so babies are not exposed to harsh chemicals or synthetic fabrics. Says Angelique, "the Hands to Heart Sleep Swaddle™ + Sleep Sack is what we get when we listen to what babies need, add in a good dose of making parenting easier, and, finally, add in the science behind baby sleep."
