Muslin wraps are widely used by Australian parents and date back to late 17th century England where they were coveted for their properties of having a light weave, which promotes good air flow. When Claudia Schwartz and Raegan Jones, both Australian natives, relocated to the USA they weren’t able to find muslin wraps and decided to make their own and thus aden + anais was born. The wraps are available in beautiful prints and designs, with choices for baby girls, boys as well as neutral designs and make the perfect baby shower gift.

Response from nurses, pediatricians, obstetricians, celebrities, industry experts, lactation consultants and other mothers has been overwhelming. aden + anais are recipients of the Creative Child Magazine 2007 Seal of Excellence and several prestigious iParenting media awards.

NEW FOR 2009

Recognizing that what is good for the Earth is also good for the nursery, aden + anais is pleased to announce the addition of certified organic, softly breathable baby swaddles to their award-winning product line. Made of organic cotton that is grown free of toxic pesticides and chemical fertilizers, aden + anais organic swaddles are as soft and beautiful as they are environmentally conscious. Designed especially for sensitive skin, the fabric’s light, open weave allows air to flow seamlessly through so that a baby’s body temperature can adjust naturally. As a result, babies feel warm in the winter and cool in the summer, helping to ensure safer, more soothing sleep while preventing overheating.

As with all aden + anais products, the durable, stretchy organic swaddles are pre-washed to prevent shrinkage, and become softer and fluffier with every wash. They are available in a wide variety of chic, low eco-impact prints and patterns. To ensure environmentally and socially responsible status, aden + anais organic swaddles proudly display the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) label. An internationally recognized initiative, GOTS has worked diligently to successfully create the leading set of criteria that define global standards in the field of organic textile processing. Today, GOTS is quickly becoming the most recognizable consumer symbol of environmentally friendly quality assurance and reliability.

Aden + anais muslin wraps are well sized at 47″ X 47″, making them ideal for swaddling. In addition to swaddling, the muslin wraps can be used for tummy time, as a burp cloth, as a nursing cover, on the floor for tummy time and even draped over your stroller for additional protection against the elements. The versatility of the muslin wraps sets it apart from many other swaddling products on the market which have limited use beyond swaddling.

Parent panel feedback of the organic muslin wrap was very positive:

“My baby has very sensitive skin and her pediatrician recommend that we purchase organic cotton products. I was thrilled to hear that aden and anais are launching an organic cotton line and I was very eager to test out the organic wrap. The organic muslin is of a very high quality and becomes softer with each wash. I feel at ease knowing that the cotton is grown without any harmful pesticides and that low impact dyes have been used to create the lovely prints and patterns. Muslin wraps are FAR superior to traditional swaddling blankets because the open weave allows air to circulate. My daughter settles faster and stays content far longer with wraps and has shown no sign of skin irritation. I highly recommend the organic muslin wraps to all parents and I am looking forward to seeing the new designs when they become available. Thank you!”

We applaud aden and anais for “going green” and know that their eco-line will be a huge hit. The Organic Cotton Wraps will be available in January 2009 and will be sold individually for $34.

The Award Winning Babysense V Infant Movement Monitor detects your little one’s movements even the barely perceptible changes an infant’s body makes during sleep. Its uniquely sensitive sensor pads, tucked under the baby’s mattress, constantly register even the baby’s slightest motion. A high-speed microprocessor control unit captures the motion patterns. With baby’s every move, it flashes a green light, seen clearly from a distance. That reassuring green blink is your sign* that your baby is moving, just as an infant should be. If there’s no movement for 20 seconds, or if Babysense V detects less than 10 micro-movements per minute, it immediately sounds an alarm and activates a flashing red light. That’s your cue to check on the sleeping baby right away.

The Babysense V Infant Monitor proved to be an invaluable and lifesaving device for Anna and Ben, proud new parents of a beautiful baby girl, Marley who was 2 months old. The Berriz Family were spending a typical evening at their home when they heard the Babysense V Monitor sound an alarm from her nursery. Anna rushed into Marley’s nursery to find a blue tinged baby, not breathing. She immediately performed infant CPR on Marley, saving her life.

“We spent the next two nights in the hospital, while our 2-month-old, Marley, was under observation,” recalls Berriz. “The cause of her sudden cessation of breathing remains a mystery but if it wasn’t for the alarm, Marley would not be here today. We are forever thankful to Babysense for saving her life.”

The first home version of this device was introduced in 1993 in Europe and Australia who have been using this technology for over a decade. This product is designed with a simple, battery-operated system that doesn’t connect to an electrical outlet. There are no wires connected to the baby. In fact, Babysense V has no direct contact with the baby: its sensor pads are connected to a small control unit. When the battery needs replacement – approximately every 6 months – you’ll see a low-battery indicator light.

*Daily testing is required to ensure that it is functioning properly.

View the Babysense V Demo video here

What is included in the box:

Control units, 2 sensor pads, connecting cable, hanging bracket, parents user manual, requires 4AA batteries (NOT included). The box contains 2 sensor pads: the first is used from birth to 3 months and the second is added from 3 months onward. The sensor pads are made from ABS plastic free which is a hard, durable plastic. The Babysense V Infant Movement Monitor is very user friendly and super simple to set up. icons on display are very easy to read. Green light flashes to indicate movement Red alert alarm light. Low battery indicator light easy one-button activation activation button safety cover (can’t be turned off by mistake). The control unit can be attached to the bottom of the bed or anywhere out of baby’s reach via the hanging bracket. The Babysense V Infant Monitor is unique because it doesn’t connect to any electrical outlet and operated via 4 x AA 1.5V batteries. The device is immune to inference from portable phones (cell phone, portable). It is compact and portable for easy travel.

Warning: Naturally Babysense V can’t replace a parent or caretaker, it can only alert you to a problem. The purpose of the device is to alert you when stopping or slowing of movement occurs.

Straight from the parent panel:

“The Babysense V Infant Movement monitor is very parent friendly and I had no problem setting it up within seconds. The product manual is well written and easy to follow. The trouble shooting chart is fantastic to have on hand and parents will be able to see at a glance how to proceed should any problems crop up. I really like that the sensor pads lie beneath the mattress and are out of sight. Nothing touches my baby. This product reduces my level of anxiety as a first time parent dramatically, allowing me to sleep peacefully.”

MORE WAYS TO KEEP YOUR BABY SAFE

*Put your baby on his back to sleep – every time.

*Make sure that the temperature in his nursery or your room is between 68 and 72 degrees.

*Dress your infant in an infant sleeping bag instead of using blankets. Adjust his clothing according to the temperature.

*Never buy a second hand crib. Take time to research buying a safe crib which needs to meet certain criteria in order to be considered safe. Check out this helpful guide.

*Do NOT buy a crib bumper, which have been show to be dangerous. Remove soft toys and anything else in the crib when putting baby down to sleep. Baby does not need a pillow or baby positioner.

*Choose a non-toxic, firm mattress. Mattresses are loaded with toxic chemicals. We love the Naturepedic line of mattresses which are the safest and highest quality ones on the market.

*Do NOT smoke when you are pregnant and keep baby away from second hand smoke once he is born.

*During your pregnancy, take an infant CPR class and enroll your partner, and anyone else who will be taking care of the baby. Take a refresher class intermittently, to maintain your skills.

Most business cases on the market are poorly designed, lacking cushioning and wheels. A typical business case which lacks wheels, combined with the weight of the notebook computer, can put extreme pressure and stress on the shoulders which is the last thing that a business traveler needs on top of a long flight. High Sierra Sport Company offers a solution with its Variable Wheeled Business Case which is well designed, solidly constructed, and perfect for the frequent business traveler. This bag can accommodate a notebook computer with a screen size up to 17 inches. The notebook computer fits in a well padded computer sleeve which will protect your costly computer from shifts during flight in the overhead compartment or from kicking feet while under the seat in front of you. It has two large compartments with plenty of room for your notebook computer, files and overnight clothing. The recessed telescoping handle is adjustable to a variety of heights for your comfort and hides away in a zippered compartment. This business case has inline skate-style wheels with corner protectors which glide smoothly and easily over a variety of surfaces. The zippered lower front pocket stores computer cables, an umbrella or accessories is easy to access saving you time and frustration locating these important items. We particularly like the organizer compartment in the front of the bag, which has dedicated PDA and Cell Phone pockets, which cushion and store your devices for easy retrieval. To the right is a key fob, which keeps your keys safe while going through security at the airport, and business card pocket helps you stay organized. Stay hydrated with your water bottle in the side pocket designed to hold up to a 500 ml bottle or beverage. Streamline your luggage with the flexible ad-a-bag system on the back panel which allows the bag to slip over the handle of a wheeled upright.

Retailing for $155.00, the Variable can be purchased here.

Many first time parents wonder if they really need a bassinet and why they can’t simply put their newborn directly in a crib. Bassinets, which are sized smaller than a crib, can help make the transition from womb to world a smoother one. Infants who are placed directly into a crib will often huddle in the corner of the crib, as they are seeking to find the perimeter for comfort. Infants are used to pretty tight quarters in the womb and being placed directly into a large crib can be a difficult adjustment for them. The added advantage of a bassinet is that parents can place it next to their bed and easily check on their baby and tend to their baby without having to walk very far. Lifting baby out of a bassinet and placing him back down is far easier than reaching into a crib and sleep deprived parents are often very thankful for this. Moms who are recovering from childbirth will appreciate having baby close by and within easy reach. The bassinets on the market today are single use, meaning that they top out after 3 months. Many parents rightfully don’t want to invest in an item that will only last 3 months. Baby Planet, understanding this, has designed the Eden Convertible Bassinet, the new innovative Dual-Use Bassinet which converts to a child seat for extended use, making it a great value. The design of the bassinet is modern and fresh and the aqua oval fabric will appeal to all parents.

The Eden Convertible Bassinet is designed for full term infants and can be used from birth to 15 pounds (approx 3 months). Baby Planet has included a detailed manual to assist you in assembling the bassinet and then later the chair. Assembling the bassinet does require some perseverance due to the snug fit, but enlisting the help of a partner and arming yourself with some WD40 will help to speed things along. While many bassinets are on the market are unstable and tip very easily, the Eden Bassinet is very stable, which will make parents feel very secure placing their precious newborns in it. A round unit which attaches directly to the bassinet allows you to play soothing music or select the vibration mode to help calm and soothe baby. Parents have the option to select both the music and the vibration when needed. A storage basket below allows you to store baby essentials, helping to prevent unnecessary clutter. The easy release latch allows you to remove the “bed” from its base, allowing you to move move it around the house. Be sure to keep the “bed” on the ground at all times, when not in the base for safety. The bed is surprisingly stable on the ground. The bassinet sheet and liner are machine washable (delicate cycle), perfect for those diaper blowouts!

Converting the Bassinet to the chair is quick and simple, as long as you have lubricated the legs! The chair is very stylish and will look terrific in any room in your house, with its sleek modern design with wooden accents. It features a 3 point harness and the same beautiful aqua oval fabric, making it perfect for a girl or boy! The seat back adjusts simply with the aid of a strap system from approximately 125 degrees to 150 degrees (see pictures to the right). Try as we might, we had a difficult time trying to tip the chair over, thanks to the design team at Baby Planet who are leaders in their field when it comes to designing items to be stable. We would recommend waiting until your baby is able to sit independently, before placing him in the chair and he can enjoy sitting in the chair until he reaches the age of 2. In these tough economic times, a dual use product such as this one will be much appreciated and instead of simply discarding the bassinet at 3 months, parents will now be able to convert the bassinet into a child seat which your toddler can enjoy.

Baby Planet encourages parents to donate their bassinet to a local charity after they no longer need it. Once it has outlived its life and can no longer be used, Baby Planet will recycle it for you. Please click here to learn more about their recycling program.
