Love to Dream Swaddle Transition

Discover our collection, including the Love to Dream swaddle bag, a simple but effective way to tuck your baby in tight without complicated wrapping. Designed for 0 to 3-month-olds, its signature arms-up design with patented wings lets your baby sleep in a natural position, with their arms up rather than tucked beside them like in a traditional swaddle.

This means they can touch their face or suck on their fingers to self-soothe, helping them drift back to sleep without undoing layers of tricky wrapping. The Love to Dream swaddle is also certified and approved by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute as safe for your newborn’s hips and legs, making the Love to Dream swaddle transition that much easier.

Love to Dream Sleep Suit

Stage 3 is the final stage, or the Independent Sleep Stage. Your baby will enter this from 6 months of age until around the age of 4, once they start sleeping independently.

The Love to Dream swaddle transition includes smart sleepsuits, which are perfect for dressing your toddler once they’re sleeping arms-free, helping them stay warm all night long. With their arms able to move about, they can often throw off their blankets and become cold during the night, waking them from their sleep. Dressing them in a sleep suit averts that, as they’re essentially wearing a versatile blanket with legs. It completely eliminates the need for loose blankets in your baby’s cot, ensuring a longer and more comfortable sleep.

Love to Dream Temperature (TOG) Guide

Make sure your baby is dressed safely for sleep with Love To Dream sleepwear, designed to remove the need for extra layers of wrapping or blankets. Keeping your child at a balanced sleeping temperature is important, as overheating has been linked to SIDS. Love To Dream clothing follows the TOG (Thermal Overall Grade) system, which measures how much warmth a product provides.

Every item within Love to Dreams sleepwear is given a TOG rating according to the level of warmth they provide to help guide you to choose the right product for your child, with a higher TOG rating indicating a more insulating product.

To help you choose the right sleepwear for the room temperature, here’s a simple guide to TOG levels:

  • Colder rooms (14°C–16°C): Choose 3.5 TOG suits.
  • Mild rooms (16°C–20°C): Go for 2.5 TOG suits or bags.
  • Warm rooms (20°C–24°C): A 1.0 TOG suit or bag is best.
  • Hotter rooms (24°C–27°C): Opt for the lightest layer with a 0.2 TOG rating.

This system helps make choosing sleepwear simple, whether you're starting out with a newborn or moving through a Love To Dream swaddle transition.
