Product description
The Baby Tuck Sheet is a TOG-rated, safe alternative to blankets suitable from birth. Designed to use over the top of a swaddle or sleeping bag, the Baby Tuck Sheet is a firm-fitting mattress sleeve that provides added security and comfort for a newborn during sleep. Each side of the Baby Tuck Sheet is TOG-rated; flip the sheet over to adjust the warmth and follow our Bedding Temperature guide (included) for help layering. The zips allow you to adjust to two firmness levels (tightness) to find the perfect fit for your baby's size or strength of startle reflex.
The Baby Tuck Sheet has been stringently tested and approved as safe by the leading independent infant safety organisation INPAA. When using the right size for your baby's length and sleep environment, the Baby Tuck Sheet will not come up higher than mid-way up the baby's chest, following Red Nose safe sleep guidelines. Given the product's design, the Baby Tuck Sheet cannot become untucked from the mattress, be pulled up near the baby's face, or be classified as loose bedding. If your baby can get their legs out of the Tuck Sheet, it will lie flat on the mattress. Newborns who don't like to be swaddled may find the firmness of the Tuck Sheet comforting instead of sleeping with their arms in. Please do not use the Baby Tuck Sheet once your baby shows signs of rolling over.
The Eczema Association of Australasia reviews our products as being skin-friendly. All ergoPouch fabrics are dyed with non-toxic water-based dyes and come in trend-driven prints and colours to suit any nursery. All our prints are designed in-house.
HOW TO USE
1. Slip the Baby Tuck Sheet over the end of your baby's mattress. Choose the 0.2 TOG side up for a light feel and layer in warm rooms or the 1.0 TOG side up for a firmer feel and warmer layer in moderate temperature rooms. For more information, refer to our Bedding Temperature Guide (included in the pack).
2. Dress your baby in their sleepwear. We recommend a Layer (onesie) underneath a Cocoon Swaddle Bag (arms in or out) or Sleeping Bag (arms out). Use our Bedding Temperature Guide to help choose the right product combination and TOG.
3. Unzip the Baby Tuck Sheet. Lay your baby under the open folds, with their feet touching the end of the cot/crib.
4. Zip up the sheet to the desired firmness. You should easily be able to zip up the sheet and firmly fit two fingers between the sheet and your baby. Once zipped up, ensure the sheet does not come up higher than the middle of your baby's chest. If it is coming up higher, tuck more of the sheet under the mattress until the correct length is achieved. As your child grows taller, continue to adjust.
5. Unzip the sheet to remove the baby from it.
6. Discontinue use once your baby shows signs of rolling over
