In addition to the wearable blanket design, printed on every HALO SleepSack is a reminder for everyone that back to sleep is the best way for baby to sleep.
HALO safer way to sleep initiative!
HALO Innovations has been working with hospitals to provide SleepSack Swaddles through the program. Today, over 800 hospitals nationwide are taking part in the program and modeling safe sleep practices for new parents right from their child’s first day of life. Leading health organizations agree that modeling proper baby care in the hospital is the single biggest influencer on how parents will care for their baby in home. You can find out more about the hospital initiative program on the HALO website.
HALO cares about more than just a safe product. They want to make sure that parents have access to safety tips for baby’s sleep. Every parent should know these few tips!
Safe Sleep Tips from HALO SleepSack
Share these tips with all caregivers to ensure safe sleep for your baby:
- Place baby to sleep on his or her back at naptime and at night time.
- Use a crib that meets current safety standards with a firm mattress that fits snuggly and is covered with only a tight-fitting crib sheet.
- Remove all soft bedding and toys from your baby’s sleep area (this includes loose blankets, bumpers, pillows and positioners). The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests using a wearable blanket instead of loose blankets to keep your baby warm.
- Offer a pacifier when putting baby to sleep. If breastfeeding, introduce pacifier after one month or after breastfeeding has been established.
- Breastfeed, if possible, but when finished, put your baby back to sleep in his or her separate safe sleep area alongside your bed.
- Never put your baby to sleep on any soft surface (adult beds, sofas, chairs, water beds, quilts, sheep skins etc.)
- Never dress your baby too warmly for sleep; keep room temperature 68-72 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Never allow anyone to smoke around your baby or take your baby into a room or car where someone has recently smoked.
The HALO SleepSack is perfect for every baby. In addition to sleeping in it, it is great to keep in your diaper bag for those extra air-conditioned locations you might end up in. Baby is free to move and kick, but won’t kick off the comfort of the HALO SleepSack. Since my baby is still baking, I was fortunate enough to share the SleepSack with a friend’s son Baby “B”. He seemed to be quite comfortable in his new SleepSack!
You can buy the HALO SleepSack at Target, Babies R Us, or Amazon.com!

We love HALO SleepSacks–especially the HALO Swaddle! 🙂
I have never tried these before but I really want to this time! Great review!
Our friends just had a baby girl…I’m thinking perfect Christmas present!!
These are so adorable would be a great gift at a baby shower
I’ve never tried anything like this before. I think it’s such a great idea and they come in so many varieties. Thank you for sharing this product.
My son was always in his Halo. Loved it. Comfy and safe!
Thanks for sharing a great product. I just love how adorable they are on top of being safe. So cool! Thanks!
this is such an unique gift idea for an expecting mom
I love these sleep sacks, they are so soft and great quality!
was actually thinking about getting one of these because they seem comfortable and safe for the baby!
We have been using a Halo Sleepsack since my daughter grew out of her SwaddleMe’s. They are nice and big and she still has room to grow.
I’m definitely putting these on my Christmas list for my new Grandbaby. These are such wonderful items. I love how they monogram that Back is Best right into the Sack.

Sleep sacks are great! I definitely sleep easier using myself when my babies use them rather than blankets.
I love this sleepsack, it’s not only so cute on babies and would look adorable on my baby boy but it’s also life saving which is a great peace of mind for us parents. thanks for the important post on sids and how to prevent.
I am a HUGE proponent of Halo Sleep sacks!My 18 month old still uses them, and will for a long time! It is so important to have the facts about SIDS.
These are soooooo cool! I wish I had them when my kids were babies!
We recieved a HALO sleep sack in the hospital when my baby was born! I loved it and so did my baby!
I’ve never used the Halo sack, but I’m very interested as I’m always looking for ways to help my baby sleep safely.
all very good tips that every one should be aware of when caring for the baby. Love the little embroidered reminder

these sleepsacks are a wonderful invention, especially for keeping the baby warm without using blankets.
I have never used a Halo Sleep Sack, we have usually just not used any blankets inside baby crib to prevent SIDS but we had a hard time with our last baby who is now 16 months old because he really liked to be swaddled and it was hard getting him to sleep through the night so I would really love to try the Halo products with our baby that is due in April 2013!
