Kelly Collopy
Let’s face it, the holiday season isn’t always conducive to a productive sleep schedule. Whether you're in the midst of sleep training a newborn, or currently juggling expertly timed naps, the festive parties and family gatherings often make getting good sleep hard this time of year.
At Stork Exchange we’re here to help you bring a bit of peace and joy to bed and naptime by offering a carefully curated ‘Restful Night Sleep’ gift guide. Take a peek below at our selection of sleep essentials for all stages of life – guaranteed to help bring some tranquility and cozy both at home and on-the-go.
Enjoy products from well known and well loved baby brands such as SlumberPod, Ollie, Baby Merlin and more – but without the steep price tag. That’s the beauty of shopping at our secondhand baby store, you get all the benefits of quality, convenience, and trust, while spending less than typical retail.
Without further ado, here are our gift ideas to help unwrap a restful night sleep:
Sleep soundly with the SlumberPod Portable Sleep Pod! Creating freedom and flexibility when traveling with small children, the SlumberPod Portable Sleep Pod offers a breathable blackout cover that works with travel cribs, Pack n' Play, air mattresses and more, giving your little one a dark, private space to catch some Zzz’s. The 3.0 Version also has a monitor pouch, improved ventilation, and a larger carry bag.
The Ollie Swaddle's safe, flexible 2-way design helps transition your little one to their next development stage. When they start rolling over from their back to their stomach, you can switch to one or two arms out of the swaddle. The design also gives your little one space to move and eventually adapt to sleeping unswaddled while continuing to encourage them to self-soothe.
