A Safe and Cozy Way to Keep Babies Warm Without the Use of Blankets
Fluffy quilts, comforters, pillows and bumper pads may look cute in a crib, but they don’t provide the safest sleeping environment for babies. As many as 1/3 of baby deaths attributed to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) may be caused by suffocation in soft bedding, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Further, some scientists suggest that a fatal rise in brain temperature is possible if a baby’s head is fully covered.
Parents have been getting the message about removing lose blankets from the crib, but are at a loss for a better solution to keeping their babies comfortable. Now, with a simple crib makeover, parents and caregivers can convert a baby’s sleeping area into a safer, healthier environment using the first product ever endorsed by the SIDS Alliance – the HALOTM SleepSackTM wearable blanket has a sleeveless, sack-like design that keeps fabric away from the face and head. It is easy to slip on over regular sleepwear and the inverted sipper makes diaper changing simple.
“What we hear from parents is ‘Finally, a way to keep our baby cozy without a loose blanket,’ says William Schmid, who founded Halo Innovations, Inc. after losing a daughter to SIDS. “The SleepSack wearable blanket keeps babies warm and comfortable, and gives parents and caregivers some peace of mind.”
The ‘Back to Sleep’ logo is embroidered on the front of the HALO SleepSack to reinforce the recommendations that babies always sleep on their backs. It is also recommended that babies sleep on a firm mattress, in a safety-approved crib, with no loose or soft bedding in the crib with them. This includes blankets, quilts, comforters, pillows, bumper pads, positioners, stuffed toys, wedges or any other soft product.
