THE DETAILS
Made for the safest sleep — and the sleep that lasts longer.
Soft organic cotton muslin sleeping bags, designed around current UK safer-sleep guidance. Sleeveless construction, no loose blankets, the right TOG for the room temperature — built to help your baby settle and stay settled.
Safer-sleep compliant
Sleeveless design follows UK safer-sleep guidance from The Lullaby Trust — sleeves can cause overheating, which is why every sleeping bag we sell is sleeveless and shoulder-fitted. Fire safety tested by Intertek across the range. Made to replace blankets in the cot, not add to them.
Pick the right TOG
1 TOG for warmer rooms — spring, summer, and winter rooms with strong heating (18–21°C). 2 TOG for cooler rooms — autumn, winter, and bedrooms that drop below 18°C overnight. Most parents end up with both, one for each season.
Builds a matching set
Sleeping bag colours match our comforter and bib ranges, so a clay sleeping bag pairs with a clay comforter and clay bibs. Useful for new-parent gift sets and the coordinated nursery aesthetic that parents-to-be tend to plan in pregnancy.

FAQ
Questions parents ask
Honest answers, written by us. The same things we'd tell a friend.
TOG measures fabric warmth. The right rating depends on your nursery room temperature, not the weather outside.
- 1 TOG: room temperatures 18–21°C (warmer months, well-heated rooms)
- 2 TOG: room temperatures 16–20°C (cooler months, less-heated rooms)
A room thermometer makes this easier — most parents pick up a cheap digital one for the nursery. If you're between TOGs, go lower rather than higher and add a light layer underneath if it gets cold.
Current UK safer-sleep guidance from The Lullaby Trust is that loose blankets shouldn't be in the cot before 12 months — they can ride up over the face or cause overheating. A correctly sized, sleeveless sleeping bag stays put for the night, can't be kicked off, and keeps your baby at a regulated temperature without loose fabric in the cot. The recommended sleep solution for the first year.
0–6m for newborns up to about 6 months. 6–18m for babies from about 6 months through 18 months. Sizing is generous so your baby has room to move and grow without fabric tightening at the shoulders. If your baby is between sizes, size up — they'll grow into it within a few weeks.
At 1 TOG: a long-sleeve bodysuit and trousers, or a sleepsuit. At 2 TOG: a sleepsuit alone, or a short-sleeve bodysuit in colder months. The total layers (sleeping bag + clothing) should match the room temperature — if your baby's chest feels warm but not sweaty when you check on them at night, you've got the right combination.
Fire safety tested by Intertek across the range — this is the UK standard for baby sleeping bags and a legal requirement for sleepwear. The 2 TOG range additionally has neck safety testing to confirm the neck opening is properly sized — too large and a baby can slip down inside the bag, which is the main historical safety concern with sleeping bags. Both tests are independently certified.
