The Cocoonababy is a baby nest and supervised rest positioner made by Red Castle, a French mother-and-baby brand. Red Castle was founded in 2001 in France. The Cocoonababy Nest is a shaped foam nest that holds a newborn in a natural semi-foetal position with knees gently raised and body lightly supported on each side. It is designed for supervised daytime rest and awake time - not for unsupervised overnight sleep. The Cocoonababy was designed around the transition from womb to world, with the contained, gentle support designed to help newborns feel settled. Peekaboo Baby is an authorised Australian retailer for Cocoonababy products. Free shipping applies to orders over $129.
The Cocoonababy is used by many Australian parents during the early newborn period (0-4 months) as a daytime rest option when a parent is present and able to supervise. It is a distinct product category from safe sleep products like ergoPouch sleeping bags - the Cocoonababy is for supervised daytime rest only.

The Cocoonababy Nest ($199-$250) is a foam body that holds the baby in a curved, supported position. The foam is covered in a removable, machine-washable fabric cover. The nest positions the baby with knees raised above the bottom (M-position for hips), a gentle head rest, and lateral side panels that provide gentle containment. The effect is similar to the feeling of being held or swaddled - many parents find unsettled newborns calm in the Cocoonababy during awake supervision periods. The Cocoonababy has a small incline (approximately 15 degrees) that can reduce reflux discomfort for some newborns. The Cocoonacover is a separate warmer cover designed to provide additional warmth in cooler conditions. Accessories including extra covers and a protective cover are available.
The Cocoonababy is designed for supervised daytime rest - not for overnight or unsupervised sleep. Red Castle and Peekaboo Baby explicitly state that the Cocoonababy should only be used when a parent or caregiver is present to monitor the baby. For safe overnight sleep, Red Nose Australia recommends a flat, firm surface in a cot or bassinet with no loose bedding. The Cocoonababy is not a safe sleep device and should not replace a cot or bassinet for overnight sleep. Parents should read the Cocoonababy usage instructions and Red Nose Australia's safe sleep guidelines before use.

No. The Cocoonababy is designed for supervised daytime rest - not for unsupervised or overnight sleep. Red Castle and safe sleep organisations including Red Nose Australia state that the Cocoonababy should only be used when a parent or caregiver is directly present to monitor the baby. For safe overnight sleep, Red Nose Australia recommends placing babies on a flat, firm surface in a cot or bassinet with no loose bedding, positioned on their back.
The Cocoonababy is designed for babies from birth to approximately 4 months, or until the baby begins to roll or push up on their arms - whichever comes first. Rolling is typically the physical milestone that signals the baby has outgrown the Cocoonababy. Most parents find the Cocoonababy most useful in the first 6-10 weeks when newborns are adjusting to life outside the womb.
The Cocoonababy is used by parents for supervised daytime rest periods when carrying the baby continuously is not practical. The contained position can help settle unsettled or colicky newborns. The gentle incline (approximately 15 degrees) can reduce reflux discomfort for some babies during supervised rest. Many parents use it as a placed resting spot while they are in the same room and able to observe the baby continuously.
