Behind the scenes at Save Our Sleep ?

This is what happens with our mattresses from the time they leave the manufacturer, arrive at my house, go to our warehouse and then make their way to a client.

I am very particular about our mattresses. I do not like mattresses sitting around sealed in plastic for days, weeks or months on end. Ours move through the process rather than being stored in plastic for long periods.

I also make sure our mattresses are not made in an environment where people smoke, and in this video I show you the simple Safe Hand Test that I use when checking a mattress.

Your baby spends so much time sleeping on their mattress, so I believe it is worth knowing exactly what you are buying and how it has been stored before it reaches your home.

A little behind-the-scenes look at the Save Our Sleep way. ?

In this video, Zoe Starr and Tizzie Hall discuss TOG, what it means, how it is used to describe the warmth of baby bedding, and why understanding TOG is important when choosing what your baby wears to sleep.

They also explore an interesting question: why are hospital babies often managed differently when it comes to clothing, bedding and temperature compared with babies sleeping at home?

Tizzie and Zoe discuss the differences between hospital environments and the home environment, and why parents need to understand the bedding and clothing their baby is actually sleeping in rather than simply relying on a TOG number.

? In this video:

• What TOG actually means
• How TOG ratings are determined
• Why different sleep environments can require different approaches
• Why hospital and home sleeping conditions are not necessarily comparable
• What parents should consider when dressing and bedding their baby for sleep

At Save Our Sleep, we believe understanding your baby's sleep environment is an important part of helping your baby sleep comfortably.

How Many Babies Actually Die from Overheating in Their Cot in Australia Each Year? The Answer Might Surprise You.

In this conversation, Zoe Starr and Tizzie Hall get into an important question that parents often worry about:
How many babies actually die from overheating in their cot in Australia each year?

The answer may surprise you.

In this 10-minute conversation, Zoe and Tizzie talk about what parents are told about overheating, what the evidence actually tells us, and why understanding the difference between safe sleep practices, temperature and appropriate bedding matters.
They also discuss the advice parents receive at home and how easy it is for fear and conflicting information to make something as simple as putting your baby to bed feel overwhelming.

This is an honest conversation designed to get parents thinking, asking questions and looking at the facts rather than simply following scary headlines.

? Watch the full conversation and hear how Zoe and Tizzie arrive at the answer.

Please remember: safe sleep advice matters, and every baby and sleep environment is different. Always follow current Australian safe-sleep recommendations and seek professional medical advice if you have concerns about your baby.

Look at Baby Amira sleeping peacefully in Bali… but what is actually helping her sleep so well? ?

Not all babies sleep the same, and one of the biggest differences is something many parents never think about: bedding.

Even in a warm climate like Bali, babies still need the right bedding to keep them comfortably warm while they sleep.

A baby who isn’t warm enough may use more energy trying to maintain their body temperature. Those extra calories are valuable energy your baby needs for growing, developing and sleeping.

And when babies aren’t comfortable, they may wake more often, sometimes looking for a feed.

This is something we see parents struggling with at 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 6 months, 10 months and even 12 months.

So many parents are told:

"It’s just a sleep regression."
"All babies do this."
"They need sleep training."

But before you blame your baby’s routine or start another sleep method, ask yourself:

Is my baby’s bedding right for the environment they are sleeping in?

Baby Amira is sleeping in Bali, and this is a beautiful example of why we need to think about the baby, the room and the bedding together, rather than simply looking at the temperature of the room.

Babies need the right bedding to sleep comfortably.

It shouldn’t be a rite of passage to struggle through endless sleep regressions.

Get the foundations right from the beginning and give your baby the best opportunity to become a beautiful sleeper. ?

Not all babies sleep the same, and one of the biggest reasons is something many parents never think about: bedding.

The baby in this video has the correct bedding and is warm enough to sleep comfortably.

A baby who isn’t warm enough has to burn more calories and use valuable fat stores just to stay warm. As those calories are used, they may wake looking for a feed to replace the energy they have lost.

This can continue at 2 months, 3 months, 4 months, 6 months, 10 months and even 12 months of age.

So many parents are told that this is “just normal”, that every baby goes through sleep regressions, or that they need to sleep train.

But before you blame your baby’s routine or try another sleep method, ask yourself one important question:

Is my baby’s bedding keeping them warm enough all night?

Babies need the correct bedding. It isn’t a rite of passage to sleep train. It isn’t a rite of passage to struggle through endless sleep regressions.

Be kind to your baby. Give them the warmth and comfort they need so they can sleep well from day one. ?
