Will the SNOO be effective if my baby goes to day care?

Usually, the answer to this is 'Yes!'

In general, napping outside of SNOO at day care will not stop it from being effective for night/weekend use. We recommend that – at day care – your infant still sleep swaddled and use Happiest Baby’s white noise (which can be purchased as a streaming file) when she cannot be in SNOO.

If your infant can roll, you must have both arms out of the swaddle for safety reasons, because they will not have SNOO's clips keeping them from rolling into an unsafe position.

If you're seeking personalized sleep support for your little one, we invite you to try our Sleep Questionnaire, and our dedicated Sleep Consultants are here to help.
