Safe use

The Bear Wrap is outerwear for babies who are awake, with an adult watching: in your arms, in the pram, on a walk. By buying it you agree to use it this way.

  • Not for sleep. It isn’t a sleeping bag, a sleep sack or a swaddle. Don’t put a baby down to sleep in it, in a crib, a bassinet or anywhere you aren’t watching.
  • If they nod off. Take the hood off their head, open the front, and move them to their own flat sleep space without it.
  • Not under car-seat straps. Buckle the baby in first, in thin layers, then lay a blanket over the top of the harness.
  • Watch the heat. A sweaty neck, flushed cheeks or damp hair mean it’s time to open it or take it off. Take it off indoors.
  • Keep the face clear. The hood sits behind the face. Nothing covers the nose or mouth.
  • When it’s snug, it’s done. Go up a size, or stop using it.

The full guide is on the safe use page.

Care

Follow the care label on your Bear Wrap. Check it before each wear: if a seam, a fastening tab or the hood is damaged, stop using it and email us.
