What is the ideal temperature for my baby's room?

The ideal temperature of a baby room is between 16º and 22ºC

Do you advise sleeping bags or blankets for sleeping?

We advise a baby sleeping bag. It is the safest way and most relaxed way for a baby to sleep.  A baby can’t kick off a sleeping bag, so there is no risk of them becoming uncovered. An uncovered baby might wake up from the cold. By putting them in a sleeping bag you also avoid the risk of suffocation as the bag will never smother the baby as a blanket might. Our baby sleeping bag provides your baby with a comfortable and recognizable sleep environment. It will help them in their sleep routine even when they are not in their own bed. We recommend our blankets for other uses, too. You could use one keep your baby warm when you are carrying them or when you take them for a walk in a buggy.

Why don't your baby sleeping bags have sleeves? 

Our bags don’t have sleeves to make sure enough air can circulate and to avoid overheating, which can be a cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). If babies sleep under a blanket they will normally keep their arms uncovered, just like we do. We recommend layering garments to adapt your baby to their room’s temperature. The best way to see if they are warm is to put your hand on their chest or behind their neck. Baby’s hands can feel a bit cold because of poor circulation in the first 12 months. Don’t worry! This is normal.

What should my child wear inside his MINIMIZ baby sleeping bag?

We advise parents to dress their baby in pyjamas made out of natural, breathable materials. If it is cold, put an extra layer on your baby.

What is the TOG unit?

The textile industry uses TOG values to show how much a duvet or sleeping bag will insulate you. 

Which size  should I choose?

An ideal time to start using a MINIMIZ baby sleep bag is when your baby weighs more than 8.8 lbs (0-6 mths size). Your child's head should not be able to pass through the neck hole when your sleeping bag is fastened; otherwise it is too big. Remember to check the weight of your child.

Please remember that these are recommendations only as all babies are different.

 Approx. Age Min. Weight Max. Size
0 à 6 months 4kg / 8.8lb 68cm / 27 pounces

What is a baby sleeping bag?

Designed in many sizes, the sleeping bags follow your kids throughout their childhood. Nowadays, one of the criteria put forward by the medical profession to avoid the sudden death of infants is the importance of the baby's room temperature which should not overheated (ideal temperature 19-20°C)

Be careful though, a baby sleeping bag should not be chosen according to the outside temperature, but according to the temperature of the baby's room and the clothes that it wears.
