    • When my daughter Juliette was born, she was diagnosed with a life-threatening heart condition. She had multiple holes in her heart so large, she couldn’t breathe or feed on her own. She spent 72 days in the hospital NICU. I would visit her at least 3 times a day, while trying to maintain a normal life for my toddler son at home during a Global Pandemic.

      After I would put my son to bed, I would drive to Children’s Hospital LA and swaddle Juliette in our norani Snugababe SwaddleTM for the night. After a few weeks, I noticed the nurses started talking about the swaddle, not knowing I was the co-founder. One afternoon the doctors and the director of the NICU had come into my daughter's room to discuss her upcoming surgery and one of them noticed the swaddle and how calm she was.

      I stood by quietly while I listened to the nurse rave about the swaddle to the doctors and how she sleeps all night when swaddled. She asked me where I got it from so she can tell the other moms in the NICU to get some for their babies as well. That’s when I confessed it was my design, and that, if the nurses like using them, then we would happily donate enough swaddles for every child in the NICU.

      After we dropped off our donation, the director told me that one of the mothers in the NICU started crying when she got the swaddle as a gift. She confessed that her family was staying in shared housing close to the hospital and they didn’t have the means to purchase baby blankets or swaddles. She was so touched by the donation and so happy it was going to help her baby sleep better. It was at that moment we knew we had to do more.

      We created the donate a swaddle option here to allow people to donate a swaddle to a local hospital to a baby or family in need. We were immediately blown away at the number of swaddled purchased for donation, and were able to donate almost 300 swaddles to families in need in just 2 weeks. The hole in my daughter’s heart was eventually repaired and we graduated from the NICU, but I certainly left my heart there. The donation program is our small way of helping the babies there, and at hospitals around the world, sleep a little better. xoxo Ani

Adorable! Even better in person

This is the easiest way to swaddle a baby, especially in the middle of the night. It is my go-to for baby showers and now for my own on the way. The print is even cuter in person and the fabric is soooo soft. All my friends I get this for end up using it on the first day baby comes into the world because they can trust the material and quality on baby's soft, sensitive skin.

The BEST!!

After trying so many swaddles, I've finally found the winner! These are amazing. The inner hand pockets are genius. My 6 week old loves to sleep with his hands under his chin by his face and this swaddle allows him to do that without getting his arms out completely. We've tried sleeping unswaddled and it just does not work for him because he always wakes himself up. These keep him feeling safe and allows him to sleep in the position he wants. Also love the zipper feature on the bottom for diaper changes at night. One thing to be aware of is the Velcro when washing the swaddle. It's very strong and other clothes stick to it. I would recommend washing it in a mesh bag. I bought two swaddles and might get a third! Also love the print, it's so pretty.

Great product!

I can’t wait to try it on my grandbaby.

The bottom should have a zipper so you don’t have to wake the baby up wiggling them into it.. you should be able to lay them down and zip or Velcro them into it

Hi Molly, our swaddle does have a zipper at the bottom.

So cute and comfy!

Our baby is a Houdini when it comes to getting out of a swaddle—that’s why we love the norani sleep pods that keep his arms nice and secure! He sleeps so much better when he can’t get his arms out! Thank you for these and for the adorable prints!
