I absolutely love the bedding!! The colors are vibrant and the themes are fun for all ages. The line is unlike any I have ever seen. It is so different, unique and fun. Unfortunately I reside in the USA and I don't think you ship to the USA.

A sleeping bag has proved excellent for our baby. She's always warm and safely tucked up, and being put into her bag is a great signal to her that it's time for sleep.

Sing the same song/lullaby each night. This routine will soon let your baby know that it is a prelude to sleeping.

I have a really simple and easy tip to get your baby off to sleep, it worked on my little boy! Three months after my baby was born and with no sleep at all, in desperation we asked our health visitor for any suggestions; she advised raising the cot at one end, elevating baby's head slightly. Obviously its not safe to use pillows, but you can place a folded towel underneath the cot matress or wedges under the head end legs of the cot. I will be honest, i thought it was nonsense and couldn't see how this would work, but it did! HOORAY! He slept soundly every night after that and has done ever since (he's 1 in a few weeks time), i don't know how or why it works, and I don't care, so long as we all get a good night's sleep! i hope this works for some of you.

For my 6 month old, I have set a routine of giving her a massage, changing her into pj's and taking her to her room with dim lights at the same time every night. She gurgles a bit happily, but then goes to sleep immediatly. But you would need to persist on the routine, for it to work.

We struggled for months to establish a bedtime routine, but since fitting a blackout blind in the nursery we have found things much easier. Our baby still hates going to bed, but after bath, bottle and a lullaby from daddy, he's off in the land of nod!.............. DREAMING of winning this fantastic bedtime prize!!!!!!

A nice relaxing bath with dad followed by a soothing whale noises and sea CD, works everytime

On bad nights where they just won't sleep,going for a drive in the car usually settles them very quickly as they Motion resembles that of being in the womb and it's soothing to them.

A calm and quiet evening, spending time together before bedtime, and having a routine. My son can be a stickler for knowing if I'm rushing to get him to bed, and have missed a part of daily routine out- e.g. bedtime story, or a kiss goodnight. It's importnant to establish a routine that can work at home, as well as when you're away visiting friends and family.

I get my goddaughter to sleep by opening the window just a little bit and putting an old fashioned ticking clock next to the cot. My mum swore by this method, it works for my g./daughter and, having seen the results I fully intend to use it myself! Apparently the clock reminds them of the heartbeat in the womb - not sure what the window is in aid of but don't try it if it's snowing!

My baby boy Leon has been 100% good at sleeping through the night. He knows when bedtime is, because I gradually dim the lights in the bedroom and put his mobile on, over his cot. Then he plays happily with his toys for a while and finally drops off to sleep. Sometimes I will give him his dummy as he is teething and its soothes him very well. Then he will sleep straight through the night and when he wakes, he likes to play happily until I wake up. I gradually wake up as he is coo-ing to himself. We then share a first smile together as we greet each other for a new day. I think routine is important with babies.

Our little girl Lucia was a very good sleeper. We always had a flexible routine of bath, milk and story in a darkened room and quiet time etc. However, now that she has learned to crawl and stand up she can't wind down at the end of the day. No matter how many times I lay her down to sleep she just stands up and crawls up and down the bed. She even does this in her sleep and ends up crying in the middle of the night because she is stuck?! I hope this period doesn't last too long and she learns to settle again.

We find a routine of bath, story book, saying night-night to all his toys and then tucking up in bed with his Bebel Gilberto CD on works wonders...it's not supposed to be lullaby music but the laid back Brazillian sounds are soothing for our baby and we don't mind listening to it over and over either...but I do wonder if he'll end up learning Portuguese!

With my first child I always sat in a real comfortable chair and sat and chat away to him sometime playing his cot mobile while stroking his head,it always worked wonders for us.

A well-rested happy baby means a well-rested and happy mum! And I understand the Babyface range does exactly that! What more can I say!

a fairly regular routine of bath then milk, often works better when done by daddy but the icing on our bedtime cake is gently stroking a finger down the middle of her forehead and down her nose when we first put her down, just for a few minutes, she strains her head out for it at first then a hypnotic effect seems to kick in and she goes very still and quiet and falls asleep pretty easily...

After realising that no matter what I did to try and settle our baby, my "tough" partner stepped in and convinced me, with some difficulty, to let the baby cry herself to sleep while we had some time together to eat dinner properly. We checked on her frequently as I felt very guilty. After a couple or a few weeks (I can't remember how long, now) by the time we'd finished dinner, she had settled and was either getting to sleep or was already asleep. Now at 5 months, our daughter is used to a flexible evening routine including some or all of the following: a feed (breastmilk, vegetable puree, formula), a bath, story time, quiet play if she's visibly not tired. Our baby finds sucking her fingers and sometimes using a snuggle cloth (mini security blanket) soothing.

Establish a bedtime routine and stick to it. e.g. bath, milk then story. Your baby then learns that what follows is sleep time. Well, that's the theory! My baby seems to think it's cry time after story time, but I do find that letting him cry for 5 or 10 minutes does get him to sleep far quicker than if I stay with him.
