FAQs
View allWhat are the Mitten Sleeves™?
Our Mitten Sleeves™ provide the secure feeling of being held in your arms without restricting movement and are the ideal long-term transition piece once babies lose the startle reflex but still need gentle comfort and security. With its namesake optional mitten cuff, it's perfect for babies who like to self-soothe and prevents accidental scratching on the face.
These are wide, full-length sleeves that are safe for babies who roll over back to tummy and are great for back sleepers, side sleepers, and tummy sleepers.
Our Mitten Sleeves also give the option of leaving the hands free and can provide comfort for those babies and toddlers who like to suck on their fingers as they drift off to sleep, while still providing gentle and coziness for babies.
Are all of the sleeves interchangeable?
Yes, all of our sleeves are interchangeable. For example, let’s say you purchase the Star Sleeves Sack. You can choose to use the Star Sleeves provided, or you can also purchase our Add-On Swaddle Sleeves, for example, if for some reason your sweet baby isn’t taking to the Star Sleeves, without having to purchase a whole new product! As we grow, we’ll be offering bundle options for our sleeves, but currently, we only have our Add-On Sleeves as a purchase option so you can mix and match without having to buy a whole new product!
Are sleep sacks with sleeves safe?
As long as the infant is dressed appropriately for the temperature, swaddles and sleep sacks with sleeves are perfectly safe. Since your baby can't exactly tell you how they feel, it's up to you as a parent to find the right room temperature and use your judgment with help from the AAP's guidelines for a safe and comfortable room temperature. The recommended temperature for babies is between 68 to 72 degrees Fahrenheit or 20 to 22 degrees Celsius. Experts recommend to check the back of baby's neck to see if your little one is warm instead of their hands or feet for a more accurate reading. Another helpful measure for temperature is to dress baby in just one more layer than what you are comfortable wearing. Finally, many of our sleeves come with an optional mitten cuff, so you have the option to leave the hands open or covered depending on your little one's comfort!
