Frequently Asked Questions about the Baby Sleep Pod

Does the Baby Sleep Pod get hot if its black material?
Baby Sleep Pods are constructed utilising an air-permeable star mesh material, facilitating unobstructed airflow to prevent the accumulation of heat within the Sleep Pod's interior.
Baby Sleep Pods Blocks over 97.5% of the sun UV rays AND Additionally Provides 96% UVE (UV Effectiveness) shade from the sun -
Independently Certified by ARPANSA.
While in motion, the pram's mobility fosters enhanced air circulation by capitalising on the air movement around the pram, thereby contributing to the maintenance of a comfortable internal temperature. Nonetheless, extended exposure of the pram to direct sunlight is not advised, especially if the pram is sitting still. Optimal practices include sheltering the pram beneath a protective covering or shade when stationary.

Check out our video below showing how the sleep pod works on a 30 degree day whilst outside for a 12 minute walk. This was done on a very hot day to show that although it is very hot outside, whilst the pram is in motion with the Sleep Pod attached, the internal temperature of the pram doesn't increase. To be exact, in the 12 minutes the pram was outside and exposed to the sun and outside heat, it only increased 0.4degrees. Watch as the camera doesn't stop watching the sleep pod for the full walk (sped up) as well as looking as the thermometers live reading across the 12 minutes at the end of the video.

How Dark is the Baby Sleep Pod?
The star mesh fabric delivers a 96% light-blocking capability. Any increase beyond this threshold would compromise the fabric's air permeability. This level of opacity effectively fosters an optimal release of melatonin, promoting enhanced sleep quality for your little one, while simultaneously safeguarding against external disturbances and premature light exposure that could disrupt their sleep.

What can I use the Baby Sleep Pod on?
The Baby Sleep Pod is versatile and can be conveniently utilised with a wide range of prams, pram bassinets, or capsules that are designed to be affixed to pram frames and have hoods. This design feature enables seamless attachment of the Baby Sleep Pod to the pram seat. Complementing this functionality are 8 strategically positioned Velcro tabs encircling the Sleep Pod, which serve to secure the pod to the pram frame. This dual attachment mechanism not only enhances stability but also effectively minimises external light infiltration.

What is the benefits of a Baby Sleep Pod?
The Baby Sleep Pods serve a dual purpose. They minimise distractions for your little one while also facilitating the natural release of melatonin, which thrives in darker environments. By harnessing both these benefits, we foster an atmosphere that nurtures superior quality naps, even when you're on the move.
