Zen Swaddle

Lauren J.

weeThink

Research shows that touch, even simulated touch, calms babies by triggering their self-soothing response. The Zen Swaddle’s lightly weighted areas apply gentle pressure on your baby’s sides and center, mimicking the comfort of being held. This helps newborns snooze through minor disturbances, even startle reflexes. During their test phase, mothers reported that their babies got at least two hours of extra sleep.

    Its a good swaddle. For not fussy babies I don't know if the weight made a difference but have nothing bad to say about it. Oct 20, 2023

  • Our baby did not like this at all. The fit is very odd. It seemed way too close to his neck to be safe. We ended up returning the ones we bought. Oct 18, 2023

  • My baby didn’t like it at all Oct 01, 2023

    Didn’t really help my baby Sep 07, 2023

  • Love this swaddle. It’s very roomy so it will last for awhile. Aug 21, 2023

  • Both of our children slept through the night since 2 months old. Can't say enough good things. Aug 02, 2023

  • This product did not work for my baby and then I later read that some babies were dying due to this product. Jul 23, 2023

  • We have every stage of the Nested Bean and love them. The babies that need the tough but you have to tend to the others love this. Jul 20, 2023

  • This product is a game changer. We tried multiple styles of swaddles . The Zen seemed to help him get the most rest of them all. On top of that, the material was super soft and the velcro is strong. Jul 06, 2023

  • We used this for a short while since our baby because a tummy and side sleeper, it wasn’t as helpful. This is great for back sleepers though. Jun 27, 2023

  • We used it like 3 times and that was it. Great product but didn't worked so much on my boys Apr 21, 2023

  • We used these a lot for restless nights and they worked wonders for our family! Kept baby sleeping a little longer! Definitely worth it!! Mar 29, 2023

  • We loved this swaddle when our girl was transitioning from swaddle me to an arms out swaddle. The little bean helps with light weight on them and there is a belly band to go with it to give pressue. Mar 23, 2023

  • MUST have!! Nested bean swaddles and blankets make those sleepless nights a thing of the past. Worked wonders for our little guy when he was an infant. Mar 23, 2023

  • This is a game changer. It's a little pricey but worth every penny. We were able to get 2 additional hours of sleep with the nested bean swaddles. Jul 29, 2023

  • These worked wonders as a wearable blanket from 6 months on. Soft, room to kick their feet and a nice weight to give them comfort. Jul 17, 2023

    • Amy G.

    • Afton, Oklahoma

    My baby seems so comfortable in this swaddle. It was a splurge compared to other Swaddles but worth it to keep baby warm and comfy at night. Nov 17, 2022

  • Zen swaddle is great for babies who need that extra touch. Allows baby to be warm and safe while sleeping, but still feel like the weight of their care takers hand is on their chest Aug 21, 2022

  • This sleep sack is the reason my daughter sleeps through the night now. I am a firm believer this product and will use it for my next as well! Jul 14, 2022

  • Purchased when transitioning from swaddle to sleep sack. I liked the chest velcro and removable arms for when they get bigger. Apr 21, 2022

  • What a difference in sleep. So happy I invested in this! Jan 17, 2022

  • Worked for awhile with my daughter but then she was able to get her hands under the band a pull it up. I changed to their zip swaddle and have loved it. Jan 28, 2021

  • I bought this in hopes it would help my son sleep, but ended up returning it after reading articles where pediatricians and NICU doctors warn against using weighted sleepsacks due to suffocation risks May 31, 2020

  • Used this swaddle the longest. Baby loves the added weight. May 08, 2020

  • It seems well made and I loved the easy zipper access. I'm neutral because it did not help my son sleep at night. Mar 04, 2020

  • The weighted section give baby comfort of being help without having to he held. My girl still sleeps so much better with hers then regular swaddles. Jan 29, 2020

  • My daughter got her arms loose and the chest velcro was around her neck and face. Never used again Jan 20, 2020

  • I did not like this product. It was too awkward to swaddle together. I don’t think the beanbag did much of anything imitation wise. Jan 02, 2020

  • I love these! The chick on the front is just the perfect weight for your baby to think they feel you there. Sep 17, 2019

    • Amy K.

    • Ellicott City, Maryland

    This didn't work for my son. Concept is good and makes sense, but I guess you can't trick some babies! Sep 17, 2019

  • This sleep sack worked the best with my baby. It’s easy zip and soft. May 30, 2019

    • Elly S.

    • Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

    The two-stage sizing makes this helpful for longer than most swaddles. It's easy to wash and dry, with a soft texture. Mar 25, 2019

    • Katie G.

    • United States of America

    Great quality and design. It seemed to work on my baby here and there but it wasnt a consistent enough pattern for me to say it was all the swaddle...then she grew out of it :/ Nov 01, 2018

    • Allie B.

    • Swedesboro, New Jersey

    I love that this fits newborns and almost toddlers! I noticed a difference immediately using the weighted swaddle vs not. I’ve lent this to multiple friends to try & they found it to work as well! Mar 10, 2018

  • This swaddle worked just fine. I didn’t notice any difference with the weighted bean compared to when we used a cheaper swaddle. I wouldn’t re-purchase. Mar 05, 2018

  • My 5 month old doesn't really like this, although I have friends who swear by them! Feb 04, 2018

  • I like the idea but my baby could work out of this more than other brands of velcro swaddles, it just didn't seem to work that well when actually put to the test. Jan 23, 2018

  • I don't get all these people who say these things are a miracle. It did not work for my baby and I tried for 3 months, totally a waste. Nov 06, 2017

  • I returned this product because I didn’t like the way that Velcro went together. My baby was able to kick out of it and it didn’t really help her sleep. Oct 18, 2017

  • A great swaddle that provides real weight on the chest, just like mom's hand. Our kids also loved this one. Oct 06, 2017

  • I really liked it, & feel like if you get it when the baby is young enough it's wonderful and helps! We got about a month use, then she rolled over in her sleep so it wasn't comfortable to lay on. Jun 14, 2017

  • We have two and works just like pretty much all the other swaddles. It's fine but def doesn't get us any more sleep. May 03, 2017

    • Aly M.

    • Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

    Great idea but didn't work for my baby Apr 13, 2017

  • Great concept and my baby loves this swaddle. This makes nights so much better. Mar 30, 2017

  • Super soft cotton, and I really like that it's weight both on the top and the sides with a bean bag. Feb 16, 2015

    • Dawn L.

    • New York, New York

    Such a great product Oct 16, 2014

  • Love this weighted swaddle and so does my newborn. He instantly calms down when we place him in this. Has a small pocket for newborn legs, so fits babies starting at 7lbs. Jun 06, 2014
