It's no secret that a good night's sleep for the whole family is essential. Between breastfeeding, diaper changes, fussiness, and the challenges of a newborn, us as parents need to be operating with a full battery! 🔋
It took some experimenting, but I’ve discovered some life-changing “hacks” that have made all the difference in Teal’s sleep routine and, by extension, mine.
So, take advantage of your little one’s next nap and allow me to share the wisdom that has made parenthood feel less overwhelming:
Hack #1: A Two-in-One Sound Machine & Night Light
The first step to getting Teal to sleep soundly is creating a soothing environment. To help me set the mood, I use the Nanit Sound + Light machine.
The night I utilized the Sound + Light machine, Teal went from waking up at all hours of the night to sleeping soundly. Now, Teal is not only falling asleep faster but also staying asleep longer.
The machine has so many different sound options but I’ve found that the white noise and nature sounds work best. The night light feature is great for setting the stage for bedtime, but it also comes in super handy for those middle-of-the-night feedings and diaper changes. I don’t have to fumble around with the flashlight on my phone!
My favorite part, though? I can control the settings of the machine from the app. If any adjustments need to be made, I can do them from my phone without having to get out of bed.
Hack #2: A Crystal-Clear Baby Monitor
The Nanit Pro Baby Monitor has become a true staple in my baby's (and my) sleep routine. Peace of mind ✅ More sleep ✅ In-depth tracking & analytics ✅.
This magical device boasts amazing video quality, day or night. Yes, even in pitch darkness, I can still see every detail of my baby's face! The Nanit app lets me hear and talk to him just by tapping my phone, whether I’m at work or just in the next room. It’s also the only baby monitor with a split screen feature, which lets me monitor two babies on one device.

Plus, the app also gives me real-time sleep analytics and customized expert tips that are super helpful when we need to make adjustments. Nanit’s encryption makes sure that Teal’s data is super secure, so that’s one less thing for me to worry about.
Hack #3: Ultra-Comfy, Secure Sleepwear
1 of 3
We all know that one mom who puts her finger under her baby’s nose to make sure they’re still breathing. It’s me–I’m that mom! At least I was before I found Nanit Sleep Wear. These PJs are wearable tech designed to monitor my baby’s breathing motion, no sensors or wires needed. The Sleep Wear also works in harmony with the Nanit app so that I can monitor Teal’s breathing without watching his little chest rise and fall.
The phrase “wearable tech” probably conjures up images of heavy material that’s stiff and uncomfortable, but these PJs are actually super soft. They’re made with organic cotton and feel just like your average jammies.
Nanit has everything my baby and I need to get a great night’s sleep
Could you get a run-of-the-mill baby monitor, sound machine or night light, and jammies for your baby? Sure. But there’s nothing quite like post-pregnancy hormones and sleep deprivation to kick your anxiety levels into high gear, and wouldn’t you rather have peace of mind? I know I would, which is why I’m choosing Nanit.
