Getting your baby to sleep soundly through the winter can indeed be a challenge, but choosing the right sleepwear can make a big difference. Here’s a comprehensive guide to help ensure your little one stays warm, comfortable, and safe through those chilly nights.
Understanding the Ideal Sleep Environment
Room Temperature:
Aim for a room temperature of around 20-21°C. This is often harder to achieve during winter, so dressing your baby in layers can help maintain their comfort.
Fabric Matters:
Opt for sleepwear made from soft, breathable fabrics that help regulate temperature. BabyKou’s sleepsuits are a great choice, crafted from a blend of organic cotton and bamboo, which offers comfort and warmth. For colder homes, their organic cotton velour sleepsuits provide extra coziness.
Winter Sleepwear Essentials for Newborns

Features to Look for in Sleepsuits
Ease of Dressing:
Babykou’s sleepsuits are designed with practical features like poppers from head to toe and a two-way zip for quick and easy changes. This helps simplify life for parents and ensures your baby is dressed comfortably.
Durability:
Made from high-quality natural fabrics, BabyKou’s sleepsuits remain soft wash after wash. With proper care, these can be worn, washed, and handed down through the years.
Layering and Sleep Bags
Layering:
Dress your baby in one more layer than you’re comfortable in. During winter, this helps them stay warm and makes it easier for their bodies to regulate temperature.
Sleeping Bags:
Consider using a sleeping bag to keep your baby warm throughout the night without the risk of them kicking off their covers. BabyKou’s award-winning Clever Sleeping Bag comes in various TOGs (2.5, 1.5, and 0.5), with the 2.5 TOG being ideal for winter.
Swaddling:
If you prefer swaddling, the organic cotton Waffle Blanket is a cozy option that can also serve as a snuggly layer as your baby grows.
Out and About
Pramsuits:
For outings, a lightly padded Pramsuit is essential. It keeps your baby warm while protecting against the elements. Look for ones with a hood, mittens, and a front zip for easy dressing.
By following these guidelines and choosing the right products, you can help ensure your baby stays comfortable and warm, leading to better sleep for both your little one and you.
