“Love the slumberpod! Was just what we needed when room sharing with our baby on vacation. The little details are what really makes it worth every penny. The pockets for the fan and camera are amazing! It’s also truly black out so the room can be super bright and the baby is still able to sleep! Love it and would highly recommend.”
“I like this product, it’s a great idea.I t’s not cheap and if it was made well I wouldn’t complain. However, the seam on ours is unraveling after 7 months, again I wouldn’t complain it it was something used everyday but this is a product that’s been used 3 times and wasn’t even taken out of the box for the first 2. Their policy on defects is 30 days, so make sure you open it right away and inspect it or you’re out of luck.”
“With a little one who needs a very specific sleep environment (VERY dark and a sound machine) to be able to fall asleep at night or nap during the day, I’ve needed to stay home a lot, with naps happening every few hours.
Between breastfeeding, and the nap schedule it’s been tricky to get time by myself. We don’t have family in town to help out, and I was sharing how I was feeling like I needed a day off with a friend, where I could just lay around and do whatever I wanted at my house, without interruption. She was so loving and generous to offer watching our little one for a FULL day for me. (Whoa!) The idea sounded INCREDIBLE, but I had my hesitations because I knew he needed a specific sleep environment, but my friend and I agreed to just TRY to let him stay at her place over naptime.
We scheduled it and she took him for the day, (or at least that was the intention). When it came time for a nap, she tried for over an hour to get him to sleep. Although she had blackout curtains, he was too stimulated looking around at what was illuminated by the light coming in through the edges of the curtains, to be able to fall asleep. I DID get some much-needed me-time, but we needed to pick him up early and get him into his room to nap, so his schedule wouldn’t be totally off for the night. If you’ve had a little one before you know how missing a nap won’t make your baby sleep longer at night - it often causes shorter sleep and more wakings at night.
I went home and started googling. I remembered my sleep consultant mentioning something about a blackout tent for a pack n play, and I found it: the SlumberPod.
I talked to my friend and we agreed to try again, this time with the addition of the SlumberPod blackout tent to the pack n play.
It went AMAZING. He was able to nap at her house for a normal length, in the same location as before, without the visual stimulation keeping him too interested to fall asleep! A TOTAL WIN!
THANK YOU SlumberPod (and my dear friend) for helping this mama get some much needed me-time!! I’m now imagining where else we could go and what we could do now that we can create an ideal sleep environment for our little one wherever he is! I’m really grateful for this tool to open the door for getting more support by now having the option for our little guy to nap at someone else’s house, without missing the naps he needs!”
“This product is the best baby purchase we made. I’d recommend it even if it cost twice as much. We used it in a vacation and it didn’t matter how much light was in the room, it was dark inside the slumber pod. We even use it at home for those sunny afternoon naps.”
“I am so happy we found Slumberpod! My kids both love to sleep in it. The fact that you can fold it up into a small carrier and tote it around easily while traveling is super nice! I highly recommend for families that travel, and even if not, my kids love using this at home in the bedroom too.”
“The Slumberpod is fantastic. We have 3 kids under 5 and it allowed multiple nights in a hotel to not be a disaster -- which never happens. It was so easy to pack and very quick to set up! It allowed my baby to take naps and sleep in, with others in the room. We will be using this for years to come!”
“I don’t own a slumber pod but I will soon. I’ve been borrowing one for the past year and it has been a game changer with travel. My little one started to have terrible sleep after a vacation where he didn’t recognize his sleep space and panicked. After we got his sleep back on track and used a slumber pod for our next vacation he went to bed with no fuss. Always having the familiar space for your baby wherever you go is so helpful. One of the best inventions for parents in my opinion.”
