Everyday Parents Review the Newborn Sleep Starter Pack

We reached out to four newborn parents, in those precious early months after welcoming their little ones to try out the Newborn Sleep Starter Pack, and the feedback was nothing short of amazing! The newborn collection of sleepwear and sleep tools work together to provide a complete, safe sleep system for your newborn baby. Let's see what these parents had to say.

"I adore this pack! My favorite item has to be the long sleeve layer 1.0 tog! It is so soft and a lovely color! Full zip down under bum is super easy to use, and mittens are a great feature! The cocoon swaddle is simply amazing! I love that it has arms in and out options as our bubs preferences changes day to day. Love the green and feel of the material! The butterfly cardi is a great add on for when bub wants arms up, and super soft! I found the pops on the swaddle and cardi easy to use day or night! And the cardi looked hard to use at first but it’s super simple and our little girl loves it! Hands down this pack is the greatest thing for a newborn! I love the added what to wear guide as I find myself always second guessing if she’s warm enough or cold enough! And the drift away white noise machine is great too! Perfect size and holds charge well! Puts hubby and I to sleep as well!"
"The newborn sleep starter pack was so lovely! We use the sound machine/light all the time! We take it with us in the car, the pram and at night when he sleeps. We also use the light function for those middle of the night feeds.
The sleeping bag is lovely, and I am so glad it came with the butterfly cardigan, as it turns out our son prefers to sleep with him arms up, so it helps with the startle reflex.
The onesie is also lovely and feels amazing. Interesting design with the zip, and I sometimes wonder if the zip on the back is uncomfortable for Bub? But he hasn’t shown signs of that being the case.

All the colours are lovely too."
"The ergoPouch Newborn Sleep Starter Pack is an excellent choice for parents seeking a high-quality sleep solution for their newborn. I love how the soft, breathable sleep sack is made from organic cotton and bamboo which is gentle on sensitive skin and helps regulate my baby's temperature throughout the night. The sleep sack has a convenient zip-up design and adjustable shoulder straps, allowing for a snug, customised fit for my baby's growth. Overall, the ergoPouch Starter Pack combines comfort, safety, and practicality, making it a valuable addition to any newborn's bedtime routine."
"I love the sleep bag as it’s so much easier to change baby through the night, and keep her calm and sleepy. The light and white noise machine is fantastic through the night. My baby is a little small for the onesie and butterfly cardigan still though"

We also asked parents to describe their thoughts on each of the items in the pack

Drift Away White Noise Machine

"We used this machine in the stroller or car, anywhere on the go and loved it! I love that it has different sounds, our favorite is the rain I think it is. I adore the light feature too so clever adding that! Cassidy sleeps like a dream with this machine on! We have noticed a difference when we use this and when we don’t! The strap to attach to the pram or wherever is handy too!" - Jamie

"I used it at night for the light, the soft light is fantastic, and didn’t wake baby up too much. Baby slept better with the rain sounds playing." - Stacey

"We pretty much only use the white noise sound for our Bub. It’s on all night while he sleeps and we take it with us out and about to help sooth him.
We love it, and use the light function too at night for ambient lighting and to help with middle of the night wake ups." - Katie

"I used the Drift Away Noise Machine in the set to settle and soothe my baby before bedtime. This was vital for setting a good night's sleep!" - Aimee

Room Thermometer & Dressing Guide

"I love this guide! I am always second guessing myself whether she will get cold or hot,this guide is my bible!"- Jamie

"The thermometer and dressing guide was very helpful to know the temperature of room and how to dress baby to keep her warm." - Stacey

"To be honest we haven’t used the guide all that much, as we has felt pretty confident in how we have been dressing him in our home. I feel like we will use it more come summer." - Katie

"It was practical and highly valuable as there were times that I did not know what to dress my newborn in depending on the room temperature. Both tools were helpful in providing clear recommendations on how to dress your newborn based on the room temperature. It takes the guesswork out of layering and helps you ensure that your baby is dressed appropriately for both warmth and comfort." - Aimee

Cocoon 1.0 TOG, Long Sleeve Layer 1.0 TOG and Butterfly Cardi

"The quality is amazing! Super soft and beautiful. Little miss has been super snug! She has not woken up cold once since we started using this!" - Jamie

"The quality is great even after washing multiple times. Baby slept good win the warmth of long sleeve onesie, swaddle and butterfly cardi." - Stacey

"The fabrics are lovely and feel great. Fantastic gender neutral colours. As mentioned earlier the cardi press studs have been stuck when trying to undo them so the fabric around has torn a little. Bub appears to be very comfortable with the warmth of these items.

We use the cardi all the time as Bub likes to sleep with his arms up. The long sleeve layer is so soft, I wonder if the 3 zips are necessary though. I find the zip down the middle rather down one leg surprisingly very good, I just wonder about the comfort of sleeping on the zip" - Katie

"The quality and warmth of the Long Sleeve Layer, Cocoon Swaddle and Butterfly Cardi is amazing. It is gentle against my baby’s skin and provides great insulation during the night." - Aimee

Overall, each parent agreed that they would purchase the Newborn Sleep Starter Pack for the retail price of $159.95. Now it's your turn to put these items to the test! We'd love to hear your thoughts on socials.
