Read MoreDID YOU KNOW THE TEMPERATURE WITHIN YOUR CHILD'S SLEEPING BAG CAN AFFECT THEIR SLEEP QUALITY AND SAFETY?
We all know how important it is to have the right environment to get a good night’s sleep and of course it is just the same for babies. If they're too hot or too cold they're not going to sleep well, but how do you know? Experts warn about the dangers of overheating your child but do you know what the temperature is inside the sleeping bag or even what temperature you are trying to achieve?
The SmartSnugg baby sleeping system helps you to understand and control your child's sleeping temperature. But what is the 'right' temperature for my child to be inside the sleeping bag? SmartSnugg’s product testing has shown that babies typically sleep between 29-35 degrees (internal sleeping bag temperature). Of course that varies throughout the night as both the ambient room temperature and your baby’s body temperature change.
HOW DO YOU KNOW THEIR TEMPERATURE?
Until now the only way has been to go in and touch your child's skin which isn't ideal if they are sleeping quietly! With SmartSnugg you get real-time data about the temperature inside your child's SmartSleeper (sleeping bag), through the SmartSnugg App.
Even when you are fast asleep you'll know that SmartSnugg is monitoring your child's comfort, as you can set up notifications to alert you if there is a problem. The information is gathered by a 'SmartPebble' (monitor) that sits discreetly inside a secure internal pocket.
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE INFORMATION?
What most parents really want to know is how to keep their child at a comfortable temperature throughout their sleep and here are two ways you can do that with SmartSnugg baby sleeping system:
The system starts with the expected room temperature and helps you to select clothing that will ensure your child is sleeping in their preferred temperature range. This is possible because SmartSnugg has information about average sleeping bag temperatures inside the SmartSleepers and extensive testing has been conducted, adding and removing different layers to understand the impact that each layer has on the temperature within a SmartSleeper.
Within the SmartSnugg App there is a dynamic clothing recommendation assistant that will calculate different clothing combinations for you, based on the clothing options that you have available. In this way you can be confident in the sleeping temperature of your child, provided that you are using TOG rated layers.
Another part of the temperature problem is how can you make adjustments, especially overnight when the temperature can drop so much? Most parents don't want to use loose blankets and even if you do, there is no way of knowing what the TOG rating is of most blankets.
SmartSnugg solved this problem by inventing the first safe, attachable TOG rated range of baby sleeping blankets. These attach directly and easily onto same sized SmartSleepers. The SmartSleepers give you much greater control over your baby’s comfort and safety and allow you to easily add or remove a layer and because of our clothing recommendation system you'll know exactly what difference that will make to your child's comfort levels!
