Our Story
We are a family of six on a mission to help parents and children get more sleep.
New parent exhaustion is REAL. We get it. We’ve been there. We’re here to help!
As a busy mom of three, I thought I finally had it figured out, developmental stages, potty training, and of course, sleep! But, the arrival of my fourth baby changed all that! My little Luke just didn’t sleep! I tried everything… sound machines, rockers, bassinets, but nothing worked. Like so many of you, I was sleep-deprived, stressed, and desperate for help! I don’t know who cried more, Luke or me. One night, Luke was lying next to me on the couch, and I gently placed a heavy throw blanket on top of him. I noticed that he instantly calmed down. That was my AHA moment! I realized that it was the weight of the throw that was comforting to him. Of course, I immediately searched the internet for a weighted blanket he could safely wear, and to my surprise, NOTHING! I then reached out to my mother-in-law, who got to work making the first Dreamland Baby prototype – a lightly evenly weighted wearable blanket. (Yes, that’s him wearing it below!)
To my delight – and my husband’s and three older children – Luke not only slept that first night, but he slept for 12 hours! He slept again at nap time. He kept sleeping, night after night, and soon, I decided that if this sleep solution could help my family, it could help others, too. My tears of frustration have turned into tears of joy as our family business continues to grow, and our weighted sleep sacks are helping families around the globe achieve better sleep.
Thank you for being a part of our journey and joining us in Dreamland!
