Advice on what to look for when choosing blackout blinds for your baby's nursery plus the opportunity to purchase a range of blackout blinds including roller and roman blinds.

Discuss baby blackout blinds on our forums, right now! Or, post a comment below.

Blackout blinds are designed to block out the light at your child's window. They come as either a patterned blind with a blackout surface on the back or as curtain linings that you can attach to the curtains you have purchased or hang separately.

It can be useful to purchase blackouts for your child's nursery, particularly for early summer mornings as it may help them sleep for longer.

I have a 2 year old who has always been an early morning waker (6-6.30 am every day even when she goes to bed late) despite having a blackout roller blind. These still let in light around the edges. So I recently purchased an easyblind which gives complete blackout since they velcro directly onto your window frame and hey presto she sleeps way past dawn now - in fact til 8 am, every morning since she's had this. She may stir a little at her old waking time, but then goes back can't off to sleep. Its fab!. I have just ordered a baa baa sheep travel blackout blind to take on holiday which works on a similar principal.

When buying a blackout blind, most of them let light in around the sides which defeats the purpose. The only ones I can find that don't do this, without spending a fortune(!), are kits from www.easyblindsonline.co.uk They don't let ANY light in.
