Newborn Parent Gift Guide

Newborns need a lot of milk, burp clothes, diapers, love, snuggles and sleep! Aside from that, they don’t need much else. Parents of newborns have a few gifts that can make sleep much easier…

Swaddles

Until babies begins rolling, they should sleep snuggly in a swaddle. If not, baby’s startle (Moro) reflex, can cause them to wake themselves up if their arms are completely free during sleep periods.  Swaddles also keep newborns cozy, warm and feeling safe, like they felt in the womb.

Weighted Blanket

Weighted blankets are like a swaddle for adults! A weighted blanket can help with sleep by:

  • Providing comfort and security
  • Easing stress and soothing anxiety
  • Improving sleep quality
  • Calming the nervous system

They can help with a variety of conditions like anxiety, autism, ADHD or sensory processing disorder.

This one is weighted, yet breathable and has TONS of 5 star reviews.

**If you are considering a weighted blanket for your child, check with your pediatrician and closely look at the weight ranges for safety. NOTHING weighted should ever be used with babies under 12 months of age as it can increase the likelihood of SIDS.**

Eye Mask

Darkness is so important for sleep and an eye mask can create a dark environment anywhere!

Our Favorites:

Pretty Care 3D Sleep Mask

Micro Weighted Eye Mask provides gentle pressure

Sound Machine

Sleeping with white noise helps with better sleep, especially for light sleepers and children!

Our Favorites:

Blue Light Blockers

Have a night owl worker or a phone junky in your life? They may not know that blue light emitted from our devices can make it difficult to fall asleep and decrease the restorative value of sleep. Ideally, devices are turned off 60 minutes before bed, but if you have to work late or can’t peel yourself away from the TV or your phone blue light blockers are a necessity:

Our Favorites:

Blue Light Blocking Light Bulbs

The right lightbulb in your bedside lamp supports your body’s natural production of melatonin, our sleepy hormone.  Combined with a bedtime routine, the Asencia Sleep Enhancing Blue Light Blocking lightbulbs can help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. We use these in my twins’ rooms and my bedroom.

Meditation Sleep Gifts

Trouble shutting your brain down at bed? Or do you wake in the night and your busy brain makes it difficult to return to sleep? Using a sleep meditation can help you get out of your head and calm your body, making it easier to fall asleep and return to sleep if you wake in the night. 

Our Favorites:

We hope our 2022 Sleep Gift Guide For The Entire Family makes your shopping experience dreamy this year! If nothing fits for your loved one, our gift certificates always make an amazing gift for the parents in your life.
