Baby Sleep tips: Help baby sleep

Sleep is crucial for your new baby's healthy development. Check out these guidelines for creating the perfect slumber, answering the question of how to help your baby sleep.

Feel the room

Aim for a temperature that's ideal for a lightly clothed adult. Your baby will fall asleep easily when she's cosy and comfortable.

Dress her lightly

Too many layers can leave your baby sweaty and cranky, which does little to help her sleep. Remember that babies usually need just one more layer than adults, so a vest with a cotton sleep sack should be enough for most climates.

Furnish the floor

A soft rug or wall-to-wall carpeting will help to warm up the room and create a nice play space on the floor. Rugs or carpet can also help to muffle noise, helping to create a more quiet sleep space.

Keep the room dark

Hanging blinds or darkening shades will keep out the early morning light. Installing dimmer switches in your baby's room is another way to create a soothing atmosphere. Dim the lights when you're getting your baby ready to sleep, lowering them more and more as bedtime approaches.

Leave on a little white noise

Some babies sleep better with the washing machine or the vacuum cleaner running, so feel free to go about your regular routine during naptime or after bedtime. The regular noise is soothing and will help your baby sleep. Know more about baby sleep training.
