Helping Your Baby Sleep

Getting your newborn to sleep can be one of the biggest challenges that a parent can face. Not only is it essential to keep your baby happy and healthy, but you need sleep to function too.

If your baby doesn’t sleep, neither do you.

That’s why we’ve put together a bunch of tips to help your newborn sleep!

Firstly, you will need to consider where your baby will sleep once you bring them home.

If you’ve not decided yet, then you’ll love reading through our guides on the best bassinets for c section, best mini cribs, best rocking bassinets, best cribs with changing station, and best SNOO alternatives.

Afterall, each child and your needs can be so different! For example, your child may not sleep in a crib for each nap time as they sleep in a playpen whilst at Grandma’s house.

And then comes choosing which baby sleeping accessories you need to help you and your baby both sleep sound from best blackout curtains for nursery to best nightlights for baby to the best baby monitors.

And if you’re not sure what type of baby monitor you need, then our guides on the best long range baby monitors, best baby monitors with WiFi, best non WiFi baby monitors, best travel baby monitors, and best baby monitors for twins are sure to help give you the information to help you make an informed decision!

And let’s not forget safety measures while your baby is asleep.

We know that sleeping is also a dangerous time for newborns as they do not have the strength to look after themselves or move a blanket that could cause problems.

That’s why you’ll also find advice to help you learn when to when can babies sleep with a blanket and how many blankets does a need. Or how to dress a newborn for sleep so they don’t over heat or wake up due to the cold.
