Swaddling has been an instinctual part of child-rearing since the beginning of civilisation. Thanks to a parent’s natural instinct to keep their child safe and warm, swaddling is part of many night time rituals, with parents gently wrapping their baby in a blanket cocoon to keep them cosy. There are thought to be many benefits to swaddling - including reducing anxiety, halting the startle reflex that is naturally built into children and perhaps even preventing SIDS.

Their great range of swaddle blankets features a huge array of designs that are guaranteed to appeal to consumers.

What are the benefits of swaddling baby? 

The practice of wrapping infants in blankets is an ancient one. Archaeological records show that babies have been swaddled since 4000 BC and evidence of swaddling can be seen in classical artworks, such as Ambrogio Lorenzetti’s depiction of Madonna and Child from 1319. Parents have followed this nurturing practice for generations and due to its benefits, the act of swaddling children is still part of many night time routines around the globe. Research has shown that swaddling a baby and placing them down on their back suppresses the child’s natural startle (Moro) reflex. This means that they won’t abruptly wake themselves up in the night, thus leading to better moods throughout the day as well as a restful night for the whole family. 

As baby’s arms are restrained, this helps to prevent accidental self-scratching. Swaddling is also thought to eliminate baby’s anxiety by imitating a womb-like feeling and also helps baby learn to self-soothe. Swaddling is also thought to reduce the risk of SIDS and help relieve colic symptoms. It’s important that children are placed on their back and their cot or bed is free from anything that may cause a choking or suffocating hazard.
