Five affordable products that can help your child sleep better
Helping your baby get more sleep, can sometimes feel like an endless uphill battle.
Maybe you spend hours rocking, feeding, and helping your baby become drowsy, only for her to wake up as soon as you set her down in the crib. Or maybe you have scoured the internet for tips and tricks, but nothing seems to be sticking long-term.
We get it, and we’ve been there! We know how it feels to be stuck in a cycle of trying and trying to get your baby to sleep with no end in sight. And we know that most of the time YOU are the only way your baby is falling and staying asleep.
That’s why we’ve complied a list of affordable products that we’ve personally tested and recommend to all parents struggling with getting their baby to sleep.

The Baby Shusher
The reason we love this product is because of how similar it sounds to that “shhhhh” noise that a parent makes when trying to calm their baby. There are several settings that allow you to adjust to the noise and length of time that you prefer, it is lightweight, and it can easily be carried with you in the car or the store to help your baby sleep on the go!

Nested Bean Sleep Sack
An easy to use, adjustable cotton wearable blanket, this baby sleeping bag is the perfect product to help transition your baby from the swaddle around six to twelve months of age. We love this sleep sack not only for the comfort and ease of use, but also for the sleep advice that comes with it! The weighted beads in the center replicate the touch of a caregiver’s hand, and the soft material gives your baby a light but snug feeling, helping stretch those naps and nighttime sleep.
Nested Bean also gives some great age-based sleep tips on their website and personal newsletters, many of which are backed by recognized professionals in the sleep community.

kisskisss goodnight, Night-time skin care
We can’t emphasize enough the importance of a nighttime routine with your baby, and a great way to do that is a bath followed by a massage.
This natural, nighttime skincare line helps soothe your baby during and after use, preparing her for solid rest throughout the night.

WubbaNub Pacifier
I am a huge fan of using the pacifier as a way to help your baby self-soothe in the first year, which is just one of the reasons I love the WubbaNub collection.
While I don’t recommend using the lovey-attached pacis in the crib for sleep, they are a great option to use for soothing when you are on the go or once you notice your baby is becoming tired.

Homedics White Noise Sound Machine
This portable and affordable sound machine is light and compact and offers up to six different soothing sounds for your baby. The best part about this product is that it is multi-faceted and can be used for an office or adult sleep once your child no longer needs it!
