First Year Essentials

Hi Cool. In regards to your question about avoiding stranger anxiety, I suggest speaking with one of the Developmental Specialists!

Hi Cool. I'd suggest speaking to one of the Nutrition Experts to get advice on feeding your baby solids!

Hi Cindy,

While DockATot is approved for co-sleeping, the most important thing is that you feel confident while co-sleeping. If you prefer to use a traditional co-sleeper the benefits of a DockATot are the breathable materials and the sides which help prevent parents from rolling onto baby. You can also purchase a CloudTot which slides inside the DockATot and keeps track of baby’s breathing and alerts you if there has been no movement for 12 seconds.

Free-standing co-sleepers are also great because they keep baby close by but give you more room in the bed and alleviates any worry you may have about co-sleeping. Halo and Arm’s Reach are two good options:

Halo Bassinest Glide Sleeper

This bassinet slides right up to your bedside, has breathable mesh walls and an easy to push down wall that allows you quick access to baby.

Arm’s Reach Mini Ezee 3 in 1 Co-Sleeper

The Arm’s Reach actually attaches to your bed making it an extension of your bed which many parents love. This however makes it more permanent as it’s affixed to your bed until you move your baby to his/her own crib. But it can also be used as a free-standing bassinet and play yard so it provides more longevity than then Halo Bassinet.
