When they feel your touch,settling comes naturally.

Many little ones only settle with a hand resting on them. But for tired parents, patting for ages means aching arms and no moment to breathe.

Gentle, Steady Patting

Soft hands pat in a calm, steady rhythm, just like your palm on their tummy. Choose from 3 speeds to suit your baby.

Snug, Cuddled-Up Feel

Long, huggable arms wrap gently around your little one for a cosy, cuddled-up feel.

Familiar, Calming Comfort

Soft dotted fleece and a light, gentle touch help your baby feel calm and close.

Your Arms Get a Break

Rest your arms at settling time instead of patting for ages, with baby right beside you.

Different moments. One simple idea: your baby feels the comfort of a gentle touch, while you finally get a moment to breathe, always close by.

For supervised rest and settling only. Not for unsupervised or overnight sleep.

Got Questions? We've Got Answers

How does the patting pillow help my baby settle?

Soft hands pat in a calm, steady rhythm, just like your palm on their tummy. It gives your little one a familiar, comforting touch at settling time, while you rest your arms and stay close by.

Can I adjust the patting?

Yes. There are 3 patting speeds, so you can choose the gentle rhythm your baby likes best.

Is it noisy?

No. It's designed to run quietly, so it won't distract your little one during calm, cosy moments.

Can my baby sleep with it?

It's made for supervised rest and settling, with you right beside your baby. It's not for unsupervised or overnight sleep, and shouldn't go in the cot. When your baby drifts off, move them onto their back in a clear cot or Moses basket.

What age is it suitable for?

It's suitable for babies and toddlers during supervised cuddles and settling time. Always stay with your little one while it's in use.

How do I clean it?

Spot clean the soft fleece with a damp cloth and mild, baby-safe detergent, then let it air dry fully. Keep the patting unit and remote away from water.
