Cocoonababy is a French newborn nest created by Red Castle, designed to support babies in a natural foetal position that mimics the comfort of the womb. The unique ergonomic shape helps reduce colic, reflux and the startle reflex, making those first months calmer for both baby and parents. Widely recommended by midwives and paediatricians, the Cocoonababy has become a trusted essential for Australian newborn families.

The Cocoonababy nest is designed for newborns from birth up to approximately 4 months of age, or until your baby begins to roll or push up on their arms, whichever comes first. It is not suitable for babies who have started to show signs of rolling. Always follow the usage guidelines provided and stop use as soon as your baby shows signs of being able to roll or escape the nest.

The Cocoonababy supports the baby in a gently inclined foetal position with knees raised and the back softly curved. This semi-reclined posture can help reduce the discomfort of reflux by keeping stomach contents down. The snug, contained feeling also reduces the startle reflex (Moro reflex) that can wake newborns suddenly, helping them sleep more comfortably. Many parents notice a difference in their baby's comfort and sleep duration within the first few days.

The Cocoonababy is intended for supervised use only and is not recommended as a standalone sleep solution for unsupervised overnight sleeping. Australian and international safe sleep guidelines recommend placing babies on a firm, flat surface on their back for unsupervised sleep. The Cocoonababy is best used for supervised daytime naps, settling, and awake observation time. Always consult your midwife or paediatrician for personalised safe sleep advice.

Yes, the Cocoonababy comes with a removable fitted cover that is machine washable at 30 degrees on a gentle cycle. It is recommended to wash the cover before first use. Additional replacement covers are available separately if you want a spare. The nest itself (the foam core) should not be immersed in water and can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth if needed.

Cocoonababy is designed and produced by Red Castle, a French baby brand with over 30 years of experience in innovative baby products. The Cocoonababy nest is made in Europe and has received endorsements from medical professionals including midwives and paediatricians across France and internationally. It meets strict European safety standards.
