- Place infants in their own sleep space for sleep: The HugMe Blanket is custom designed to fit a bassinet, cot/crib and bedside sleeper, encouraging parents to put baby down to sleep in their own sleep space, rather than sharing a bed with them or sleeping in a space such as a seating device, swing, car seat, or lounger
- No loose blankets in the baby’s sleep space: The HugMe Blanket is a firm-fitting mattress sleeve that fits all the way around a mattress, like you would put a pillow slip on a pillow. It cannot become loose, pull up higher than baby’s chest, and is designed to fall flat against the bed if a baby wriggles their way up and out of the sheet. It is not classed as loose bedding.
- Place baby on their back, in feet-to-foot position for sleep: The HugMe Blanket encourage parents to place baby in their sleep environment on their backs, with their feet at the end of the cot/crib/bassinet.
- Avoid overheating baby, keep their face uncovered: The HugMe Blanket is TOG-rated, lightweight, and made from breathable organic cotton. It comes with a dressing guide to help parents understand how warmly to dress their baby for sleep. This discourages the use of quilted blankets or heavy polyester blankets that trap heat and can cause overheating in newborns, as well as suffocation if pulled over face.

- Designed for newborns who are not yet rolling.
- We advise discontinuing use once babies show signs of rolling for their safety.
- Do not use with more than one baby inside
- Position the HugMe Blanket so that it comes no higher than mid way up baby’s chest, when baby’s feet are touching the end of the cot/crib/bassinet
- Select the right sized product for your sleep space, and size of baby. When used for the right age baby (newborn, not yet rolling), the design makes it extremely difficult for the baby to pull the product towards their face, or manoeuvre their body underneath it.
