We all know that a good nap equals a happy baby. So whether your newborn sleeps most of the day or your toddler has transitioned to one nap, you’ll want them to feel so snug that snoozing comes naturally. Ready for long dreamy naps? Take a look at these…
Naptime saviour: Baby Nest in Twinkle Grey
What is it?
A portable nap nest that’s ultra-comfortable for your little bundle. We love the grey hue, but if you’d prefer a gender-specific colour, try the Baby Nest in Amelia Pink or Baby Nest in Amelia Blue.

How to use it:
Place this on the floor for nap time wherever you are or use it for nappy changes and a baby massage base. Remember to always supervise your baby in this and put them in the belly up position.
Top naptime tip:
Even if they’re sleeping, we recommend letting family and friends meet your gorgeous newborn when they’re snuggled in this (it makes for the sweetest photo too). Place the nest on the sofa when you’re relaxing so you can always be close by to baby.
Naptime saviour: Majestic Gold Bunny Blankie
What is it?
A sweet bunny toy that doubles up as a comforter for your baby or tot to hold and cuddle throughout their nap.
How to use it:
The ultimate nap time essential to keep them soothed and comforted, simply get them used to this bunny blankie in the day by playing with it, singing with it and getting them to hold it. Then when they’re ready to transition into their own bed and need some reassurance for nap time, it’ll become a symbol of security. And you know what that means – calmer bed times and less wake ups in the night.
Top naptime tip:
When you buy this, make sure you keep it around the house before introducing it as a sleep comforter. This means you could place it in your bed or amongst your clothes so it gains the familiar smell of home.
Naptime saviour: Balmoral Cot Bed
What is it?
A new, best-selling cot that exudes the elegance of the Regency Era (AKA Bridgerton eat your heart out).
How to use it:
When your little one is ready for their own cot, this cot bed is the perfect setting for daytime naps too. These daytime naps in their cot may also help them get used to their night time environment, meaning a more solid night sleep.
Top naptime tip:
Opt for the Diamond White Collection Half Bumper to minimise any head bumping during nap time and in the night – oh and for a chic way to dress the cot.
Naptime saviour: Paris Swaddle By Atelier Choux
What is it?
The most stylish swaddle designed with Parisian landmarks and people. What could be more divine? And with Paris Fashion Week coming up in September, this is très chic!
How to use it:
The aim is to replicate the snugness of the womb to your newborn, so that they feel secure and ready to sleep. Lay down the swaddle in a diamond shape with your baby on top. Then put their right arm by their side and firmly (not too tight though) wrap it over the arm and across to the left. Tuck the swaddle underneath their left side and repeat the same across to the right.
Top naptime tip:
Don’t just reserve this for nap time, this versatile blanket is perfect for a changing mat, breastfeeding and pram cover too.Naptime saviour: Diamond Pique Moses Basket

Ideal for supervised naps that aren’t in their nursery, this mosses basket is a comforting haven for sleeping in. It’s suitable from newborn up to 3 months.

Place baby in this for naps and awake time. They’ll love the cushioned interior for extra comfort, whether they’re snoozing or listening to you read a story. It comes with a decorative quilt and pillow, so you can place this in their nursery and dress it up when it’s not in use.
