Transition to arms-free sleep in 3 easy steps   

Follow the steps below to transition from swaddling to arms-free sleep.  

1. Zip one wing off: Unzip one wing first to gently ease your child towards more independent sleep. We recommend doing this for naps and bedtime. 
2. Monitor your baby’s progress: Over the next few days, monitor how your baby responds to this new way of sleeping. Every child is different, it may take a couple of nights for your child to adapt to change.    
3. Zip second wing off: When your baby is used to sleeping with one wing removed, it’s time to remove the second wing for arms-free sleep.
