Sweet dreams<br />
Sleepy ideas for mums and dads ... and their babes!<br />
Sshhhh ... the sweet, sweet sound of baby sleeping<br />
Just imagine. Your babe waking up after the sun rises and<br />
sleeping long restorative naps during the day. Nope, you’re<br />
not dreaming. It can really happen.<br />
Born out of the many mornings Tamsin Glass and her little<br />
boy, Riley, beat the first rays of sun to a new day ... she was<br />
determined to come up with a range of products that<br />
promote healthy sleep.<br />
“A lack of sleep opens you up to physical and mental health<br />
problems, and like all new moms, I was running off love,<br />
little sleep, and 50 Shades of dark circles under my eyes. I<br />
was desperate for something that would keep Riley and me<br />
in sweet slumber a little longer and turn our home from a<br />
tired haze to a happy haven,” she says.<br />
And what she came up with was Dreamy Days - a<br />
collection of carefully curated products, simplistic in design,<br />
functional, and tested by sleep consultants.<br />
First up ... the Dream Pod. It’s all about white noise ... which<br />
helps babies fall asleep, and stay in that deep sleep state,<br />
by providing a comforting and soothing noise and masking<br />
the many sounds that can startle and wake a baby. The<br />
continuous calming sound helps babies drift off, but there<br />
are more benefits, too. It’s a sleep cue, so they know it’s<br />
nap time, it drowns out noise in the home allowing for<br />
uninterrupted peaceful sleep, it mimics the sound of the<br />
womb, which creates calmness and security, allows your<br />
baby or toddler to link sleep cycles and stay asleep and<br />
trains the brain to relax.<br />
Also helping with sleep are the Dreamy Days 100 per<br />
cent Blackout Blinds. These help make sure your child is<br />
getting sufficient amounts of Melatonin (produced when<br />
in darkness) needed for a good night’s sleep. And get this<br />
... these Blackout Blinds use electrostatic technology ... you<br />
simply tear over a perforated line or cut to fit the size of the<br />
window and voila - 100 per cent blackout. Brilliant for when<br />
you travel or drop babe off with gran for the night.<br />
There are loads more products for sleepy heads on the site<br />
