Allows us to sleep without worry – This product has been wonderful for my husband and I to get some sleep. We lost our first son to SIDS and he rolled on to his tummy at 5 months old and could not roll back. It was devastating. We use a Snuza, Angel Mat and this product. The wonderful thing about this one is that we do not have to continually worry about him rolling now that he is… Read more

19 weeks. Yes, the velcro is loud, but we feel this is a small price to pay for our child's life. It won't delay development if you continue to do tummy time and other activities throughout the day. The only thing this does is ensure that bub does not accidentally bury their head into the mattress. Once he is asleep in this and once he is used to it; you will find that they sleep soundly and securely. We will stop using it when we feel he is strong enough to get himself out of a difficult situation.

There is nothing we won't do to ensure our son's safety. Loud velcro or not; this product is a life saver and gives us great comfort. That is enough for me to give a raving review any day. Worth every cent and for those of us who have lost a child know that whinging about price tags and the noise of velcro seems so trivial. Thank you for allowing us to sleep and keeping our beautiful boy safe.

Baby now sleeps through the entire night and so do we! – Everyone tells you that its inevitable that your baby will want to roll, sit, crawl, stand every chance they get, including during sleep time. So when we stopped swaddling our very fidgety 6 mth old, we were prepared for busy little hands to start exploring and the rolling to commence. What we werent prepared for was his stubborn determination to… Read more

keep rolling and rolling and grabbing at his sleeping bag to try and sit up. It went on and on to the point that he'd be back on his tummy before you'd even made it out the door. So we tried letting him roll around as people suggested, on the assumption that he'd exhaust himself, eventually crash and go to sleep. Wrong. He didn't peacefully roll himself to sleep, he rolled for 30mins+ until he got so overtired and so worked up that he would have his face buried in the mattress howling. Our baby is a catnapper so most days he spent more time rolling in his cot than he did actualy sleeping in it! I have to admit, we were very apprehensive about buying the safe t sleep after reading a comment calling it a restraint that hinders your baby's deveopment. But then we figured that he's given plenty of playtime during the day to use his newfound skills, so was it really that wrong for us to want him to use his cot to sleep not play? Safe quality sleep is important to us and this product keeps my little one on his back and gives us peace of mind. It took two days for him to adjust and now he actually falls asleep much more quickly and sleeps through the entire night when previously he would wake at 4.30am like clockwork. Sure we may be delaying the inevitable but bubs is sleeping more soundly and we are less stressed knowing he is safe and secure. The only negatives are the price and the loud velcro as others have pointed out.

Keeps my rolling baby still enough to sleep – I bought this product out of sheer desperation when my baby learned to roll over and decided all night was a good time to practice this new skill. He was waking up 1-2 hourly all night long having rolled into the bars of the cot. It was also getting really hard to put him to sleep as he'd roll over as soon as I lay him down. I was a bit hesitant… Read more

to buy this given the price but it has been fantastic. From the first night we used it he was sleeping longer stretches again and putting him down for naps is so much easier now he can't roll all over the place. I feel better knowing he isn't wriggling and rolling all over the cot too as he was managing to get into some very awkward positions! It's a great idea and a simple solution to a common problem.

I do think it's quite over priced considering its basically a piece of fabric with some velcro strips sewn on. Also I find the fabric a bit stiff but that could be because I didn't wash before use (was too desperate to get a good nights sleep!). Another minor irritation is that it is a bit tricky and fiddly to get around the mattress. It is a shame they are so expensive as it would be nice to have a second one to use while the other is in the wash, not sure what we'll do if he vomits or drools all over this one! But on the whole, very happy with the product, it does what it should do and has solved our little sleep problem for now. Keeps baby stationary in cot, preventing wake-ups from rolling A bit fiddly to put around mattress, expensive

Sleep saver – I never ever give products reviews but as a mum I feel I need to so other mums can have a good night sleep too. This thing is a miracle my 6 month old slept through the night from birth then started waking every 1.5 hours at 4 months, then she started rolling while swaddled but unfortunately sleeps even worse without swaddle so I had to give this… Read more

a go. She no longer wakes herself from rolling or fidgeting she has slept through for a week of using this. I highly recommend this if you have a baby that loves the swaddle or a baby that would rather play with the bars of the cot instead of putting themselves back to sleep.

Absolute lifesaver first time mum! – Whoever invented this product a big thank you! I never loose sleep at night know my baby can't roll on her belly. She's such a little strong wiggly bum and when she was 1 month old the sleep positioner wasn't doing the trick she would wake up on the side. Anxitey almost completely gone when putting her down to sleep at night

Love this product! – We purchased the safe t sleep after our baby would roll to the side of the cot and wake. Now he sleeps through the night we love it! Highly recommend.

Great for some but not all – My baby boy hated this & screamed & fought to get out of it even though I'd done it lose enough for him to roll over. Plus he has reflux & I don't think it was good as it kept him from moving if he needed to. Disappointing because I know most people love them. Totally agree with the other reviewer as well, the noise of the Velcro is terrible & this factor alone would put me off it. Think twice if you have a baby that hated being swaddled.

Good for keeping on their back, but WAY too loud – Does keep Bub on her back, so good to prevent roll over. We had also hoped that it might've also worked as a 'substitute hand', some pressure on Bub so she feels like we're sitting there, but didn't help in that regard. Most frustrating thing is the loud Velcro. If Bub isn't wide awake and you want to pick her up for settling, forget it. The… Read more

sound of the Velcro opening will definitely wake her up. Even getting her back in can be tricky. In the middle of the night you might not see that the flaps have folded onto themselves and when you go to put it back on, RRRRIPPP! Velcro noise. I wish they could find a quieter was of securing it. Plus it's really expensive.

Only works half the time – I purchased this product as my baby has reflux and will literally cover the cot with vomit as soon as he flips over. However I have found it only works half of the time - because he can half the time he can managae to get the velcro off himself, which he started at 5 months old. I was at my wits end with the vomitting, so actually wrapped him in a… Read more

love me swaddle so that he couldnt get his hands out to undo the velcro until he was 7 months old. Now I just accept that he will get out half the time and then I will have to change the bedding and he will wake up etc. keeps baby on their back (half the time) baby can easily undo this themselves, as it is only velcro! I wish the fastening was something that bub could not easily undo, like a zipper or studs.

Great product but disappointed with the materia – Just started using it, give me a piece of mind that baby won't roll on her tummy. However the valco is so rough and noise to use, thought they could use baby valco for that price... Opening the valco fully wakes my baby up from half asleep. Now I won't strap her until she is in deep sleep in case I need to pick her up and rock her. The problem… Read more

is she might move away from where she meant to be.

No one seems complaining about this tho?? Could be just me being fussy....

Happy bubba, happy mumma – My 6 month old son was waking up every hour overnight as he would roll onto his tummy and was unable to get back and we were both exhausted. Put him in the safe t sleep wrap last night and he only woke once (to burp!). We both woke up rested and happy this morning. Think we have found our miracle and in my opinion this is the safest sleep positioner on the market. Amazing and worth every penny

We are back to sleeping through – My 11 month baby was sleeping through until she learned to turn and climb up, from there she won't go back to sleep by herself. I leave the wrap not too tight so bub is able to turn left and right as she likes during the night. She isn't able to climb out until she is fully awake in the morning. Thank to this product we are sleeping nicely through… Read more

again) I wish Velcro wasn't as loud, maybe they'll come up with some nice zips later. It keeps baby down safely Velcro is loud

good product ever – I had my my safe T sleep when my girl 3 month old, it's work excellent, as least I don't have to worry that she turn over at night and it can hold her in place. But the only thing that I don't like is too loud, when you want to do a dream feed, it will definitely wake your baby up when you open it. safe, hold in place, good for travel loud when open the wrap

Safe t sleepwrap – Fantastic product our 5 month old had just learnt to roll from her back to her tummy and we all thought she was so so clever (1st child), she always slept 12 hours though the night until we were getting woken up 5 or more times a night as she would roll onto her tummy and couldn't roll back causing her to wake we would go in and place her on her… Read more

back again she would roll straight back over onto her tummy almost like a game. SIDS say for a child to sleep on there back so I became very paranoid and was constantly checking her to see if she was breathing as she was sleeping on her tummy so this product has been our saviour! She is back to sleeping 12 hours though the night mummy and daddy are back to sleeping a full night too who hoo,,, A little expensive but worth it.

Summer Must-have!! – Ok so swaddling is great to curb the startle reflex but what if you're trying to withstand the Queensland summer heat and even the aircon cranked up brings the temp down only a notch?(!) A friend recommended this product as she has used the same one for each of her four children. Glad I bought one. It sat in the cupboard for a while. When… Read more

our little Houdini started wriggling his way out of muslin wraps, I remembered I had this wrap and fit it to his cot mattress.

This product was a sleepsaver for us. Bubs avoids startling himself awake and stays cool. Great in summer as an alternative to a wrap. The reflux version with the crotchpiece should be made standard.Velcro is difficult to open without waking my bub up for his evening 'dreamfeed'.

Simple solution!!!!!!! – My 3 month old son has silent reflux, we tried numerous things to keep him comfortable and nothing worked. As we had the cot slightly elevated the safe t sleep keeps him safe n keeps him from slipping to the bottom of the bed! Amazing and simple solution to such a tiring and stressful time for our bubba and us parents!!! Would definitely reccommend to any parent struggling with a reflux/colic baby!!!!!

Only thing that made my baby still enough to sleep through the night – The safe T sleep has been the best purchase I have made. I had a rolling, crawling baby at a young age, who would wake herself up rolling in the bassinet and cot. I myself could not sleep as I would often find her bum up and face down on the mattress. The safe T sleep keeps her secure in the one place all night. She could not 'houdini" out of… Read more

it and she slept all night in a safe position. When used correctly I cannot see how this product could be any more unsafe than other swaddles, blanket options, in fact for me it makes me feel more secure and I was a very anxious mother about safe sleeping issues! Kept baby secure and stopped her rolling onto her face, and then waking herself up. Made baby sleep more soundly. Makes it more challenging to change and make babies bed. Must make sure you put the Safe T Sleep on securely and tight, so it doesnt come loose. The velcro will wear out and therefore product will need replacing when this happens or the baby could possible wriggle out.

Do not buy this product!!! – We had to call 000 yesterday as this wrap had become stuck around our 1 year olds neck and was choking her. Luck for us she is OK but i would not wish this experience on anyone. I have beed told buy the paramedics that this style or a similar style of wrap is actually banned in the USA. They do not recommend this wrap and wish that it was also banned here.

This thing saves lives. Don't take a kid home on a nasal gastric tube without one of these – I know that sounds like a wacky recommendation but my baby was so unwell with reflux that she was nasal gastrically fed at home on a slow drip feed pump for 6 months. Think about the SIDS risk of putting a child to bed with a cord permanently affixed to their face. I bought this after another mother recommended it to me because my baby had… Read more

woken in the morning with the tube wrapped tautly around her throat.

Not good.

So with this product she could sleep on her side or tummy (as reflux bubs want to do) but she couldn't flip more than 180 degrees (ie she couldn't choke herself).

It therefore was the only thing that save my and my husband's sleep. We bought two so we could wash one and use the other.

She still uses it now - allows her to move around without crawling around the cot. Settles her nicely but she cant' climb out of the cot.

It's versatile - she can sleep on any bed anywhere because she can't fall out of bed. Life saving, reliable, clever, changes benefits as the child grows

This really IS perfect and something that we could not have lived without! – Three reflux babies and this is the only product that gave us both peace of mind and sleep!

My children loved their safety T sleeps and… Read more

used them until they hit 3! They felt safe and secure in their safe T sleep! I highly reccommend these to any parent with or without reflux...and going on holiday or a party and putting bub down...FORGET taking along a bulky portacot the safety T sleep is a potra cot that fits in your nappy! I give 10 stars five just inst enough!!!!! compact to take any where, safe, security, peace of mind, ease of use NOTHING!!!!!!!

Great invention! – I started using this when my baby went from the bassinet to the cot & would get upset stuck in corners. Wish I found it sooner as it would have really helped in the early months with reflux & keeping h central on incline. My baby started sleeping through the night, keeps him feeling secure, stays central in bed & can't hurt himself climbing or… Read more

getting stuck in corners. His face seems to lie right on the edge of the sheet so I have to try & fold it down or it's uncomfortable & leaves a line on his face. Also now that my son is rolling he gets onto his tummy easily & can't get back making me worry about him suffocating.

Excellent – Our baby has never been a 'wonderful' sleeper, and at 8 months old he learnt to roll over and would get himself tangled. And even more dangerously, he still liked to be wrapped to so he was being wrapped & rolling !! Found the Safe T Sleep and it's been a GODSEND. He now goes to bed in one position and wakes up in the morning IN THE SAME… Read more

POSITION (slightly moved, but still on his back and all limbs in the cot !!).

And he is sleeping better also. Not requiring us to go to him 3 or 4 times a night, for sometimes over a few hours, to get him back on his back, get his leg out of the rail of the cot, move him when his head is jammed in the corner.

Oh, I wish I had discovered this months ago ... but it's a keeper in our house :) Safety & peace of mind. Not one dislike.

I knew she would always be… Read more

safe, all my friends would say how there little ones would climb out of the cot and stand up etc, both of my children never did this and I owe it all to the Safe T Sleep, I will always reccommend ths and always use it. In fact I am still using it for my 21 month old little boy in his toddler bed. I really think every new mother should be encouraged to purchase a Safe T Sleep, I love them and I think you will to. Wow - I think this product should be a MUST have baby item just like a car seat etc. The Safe T Sleep is fantastic, keeps bub in position and keeps me happy knowing bub is safe. I have used it for both of my children Nothing, I love it

have to lose sleep when their little ones keep rolling onto their tummy in their sleep. i can put my son to bed and know he will be where I left him when he wakes. No getting wrapped in sheets, getting caught in the bars, or getting stuck on his tummy. The best product I have bought and very worthwhile invest in his safety.

Excellent – Best thing I have ever bought. My baby starting sleeping better through the night straight away. If you know any new mums I recommend buying it for them, they will love you forever. As a new mum it eased my worried mind to know that the baby would not roll or move around the cot. Great quality linen. The wrap is great but my son tends tries to… Read more

do 360 degree turns sometimes and when wrapped, it obviously gets twisted and tight around his stomach resulting in crying etc.

Got a baby who rolls onto their belly- buy this! – After waking one morning to discover my 5 month old baby was sound asleep completely face down I went on the hunt to find a product to prevent her from rolling onto her stomach at night. I came across the Safe T Sleep. It consists of two pieces of sheet material that are approx 40 cm wide and long enough so that when they are attched to each… Read more

other via the velcro on the product it will wrap around a variety of sizes of thick baby matresses. There are 3 pieces of the same fabric with velcro stitched onto the sheeting. The fabric wraps around the babies torso and comes up between the babies legs to keep them in place whilst asleep. My baby can still turn her head to the side but has not been able to roll over. It is a little on the expensive side ( we paid $99.00) but is worth every cent. I love this product. It keeps my baby in a safe sleeping position and gives me huge piece of mind. The velcro is quite strong so can be a little noisy to re-adjust, and it takes a little getting used to when it comes to fitting it onto the matress, but I would definitely not be turned of the product because of these cons.

Learning to Grow...through 5 children – I first heard of the Safe-T-Sleep online so when my sister had a baby she got it and it was great with her son. When I then had our first child, we got one for him and it was amazing. We started using it when he started to roll over which was about 5 months. We found that it helped him sleep through the night better, kept him warmer in winter and… Read more

in summer he didnt get overheated having it around him during sleep times.

When our son started being able to rip the velcro off and get himself out, I got one of the safety baby pins and used that to keep the two pieces of velcro together.

Since having 4 more children, we have used it with all of them and its been wonderful! I recommend it to all of my friends that are having babies!!

Its also great when you go out and instead of having to lug around a portacot or take the stroller inside someone's house, you can just use this on a single bed, the velcro bottom sheet is long enough to go all the way around. Great for when out and about at friends places! A Little on the expensive side, but definatly worth it.

Can't live without it fromnewborn to 3 year old – I bought this when my first started pulling himself up and couldn't get back down around 4 months (yes a very early mover!) but loved it so much as he had no other choice but to go to sleep. They can eventually roll over and even sit up but it keeps them down on the mattress. I used it when transferring to a big bed at 18 months with no problems… Read more

no getting out of bed or falling out and great for carAvaning or traveling EasY when sleeping away from home no protacots and great to transfer to big Bed When waking them up in the early stages for feedings Yes the Velcro can be loud and it is quite expensive and Takes practice getting on the mattress and you need at least 2

Helped us out for a couple of scenarios – We bought the Safe T Sleep wrap to help with positioning our 2-3 month old baby when he developed symptoms of reflux and we were advised to raise the head of the bassinet. Our baby didn't seem to mind being in the Safe T Sleep wrap. Unfortunately, it didn't work though because bub also needed to be swaddled to sleep at that stage and managed to… Read more

wriggle down the bassinet until his head was covered by the Safe T Sleep wrap.

The second time we used the Safe T Sleep wrap was later when bub was sleeping in his cot in a sleeping bag. We would put him to sleep on his back but he would roll onto his tummy. However, rather than be content to go to sleep on his tummy and unable to roll back onto his back at that stage, he would cry until we helped him, only to repeat the process as soon as we left the room. The Safe T Sleep wrap helped us get some sleep those nights until we stopped using the wrap and learnt how to pat him in his cot on his back until he calmed down to go to sleep.

We never used the Safe T Sleep wrap for traveling as we use a portacot. Helped with positioning reflux baby, allowed us to get to sleep some nights Not safe to use if baby is swaddled and bassinet has to be angled due to reflux, I no longer think it's necessary & won't use it with baby number 2

OK – It's a really great idea and someone needs to create something similar that works better. The whole velcro thing really gets me. OK - so put my baby back down to sleep after feeding. He's already asleep and then I wrap it around him and realise that I haven't done it tight enough. Do I rip the velcro and startle him awake - or do I leave… Read more

knowing that it will only be a matter of time before he'll roll over and cry because he's on his tummy? Not dilemas I need to be having at 3am.

It's too difficult to do it up correctly all the time. It needs to have rows of fasteners or something so that when I get a size I know works for us I can keep using that size. The concept.

Great if you're away and don't have a cot. You can use this to secure you baby to a single bed and have piece of mind. Velcro, velcro, velcro!!

Too hard to get it on properly every time.

Good – Overall this product is brilliant and has really given me peace of mind when putting my baby to bed. I know that I can use the reflux wedge and also keep the baby in the right position all night. It also keeps the baby under the blankets all night as well so there's no need to constantly check that they are covered and warm. This has been a… Read more

godsend as it allows me to keep my bub in position on his reflux wedge. I can rest easy knowing he will stay in the same place all night and not roll and slide down the reflux wedge incline. This is being extremely picky but the velcro used to hold the baby in place actually creates sparks when undone. You will notice this when you unstrap your baby in a dark room. Hopefully this isn't a fire hazard!! The strap that goes between the legs is quite wide and difficult to fit in the swaddle holes.

Excellent – If I have another baby the only thing I'll do differently is put the baby into it much earlier. The Safe T Sleep acts like a major cue that it is time for sleep, and being wrapped helps the baby feel snug and secure. Fabulous for helping my 1 year old feel safe and secure. He slept through the night from 3 weeks to 6 months, but then he could… Read more

move about more and teething also meant when he woke he didn't resettle himself anymore. Would wake and stand up screaming until someone came to him, and started screaming as soon as I left the room. Discovered the Safe T Sleep at 12 months - takes 3 nights to get used to it and then it was like I had a different sleep. I could put him into the cot wide awake and he'd settle straight away, suck his dummy and close his eyes to put himself to sleep. I could walk out the room and there wasn't a sound. Also find him happily lying awake some mornings rather than crying as soon as he wakes. The Safe T Sleep has changed my life - no longer do I have to get up 2 to 3 times a night, but we sleep through the night again. None, but my baby has always liked feeding to sleep and being cuddled, so I'm not sure how a baby who didn't like being held tightly would cope with it.

Excellent – GREAT PRODUCT! Overall I would definitely recommend this if you're looking for something to keep bub in a safe, back-lying position in the cot. It's a great solution from transitioning from a newborn wrap to eventually total freedom in the cot. A+++ from me! Great product! I used this for my daughter when I was weaning the wrap. She couldn't… Read more

handle the freedom of no wrap and kept getting stuck on her tummy and crying. The Safe-T-Sleep kept her in the one position in the cot and the band gave her the illusion of a wrap (except she had her arms free). It's 100% cotton which is great for the heat of summer. It's easy to assemble and use. Great to take with you as it fits on a standard mattress. Kind of like a porta-cot! Had to wean it at age 1 as she was un-doing it herself and getting out. She would also roll onto her tummy but the Safe-T-Sleep stopped her from rolling back so she would cry out.

Good – I loved the Safe T Sleep as I knew it kept my little one wrapped so she didn't wake herself. I only wish I had found it earlier! Love the fact that it kept my little one swaddled all night and in the same position. She also couldn't get her arms out and wake herself up. Now that she's older, it keeps her from rolling over and getting her limbs… Read more

caught between the cot bars. Tricky to get the positioning of the wrap 'just right' but once you get the hang of it, it's easy. It's also a little on the expensive side, but worth it in my opinion.
