But not all night-lights are conducive to good sleep. “The most important thing in choosing a night-light is the color; the light should offer a warm, red/amber/orange hue option,” explains Allison Panesar, founder and certified sleep consultant at the Sleep Collaborative. “The night-light also should be quite dim or have a dimmer, as using a night-light that is too bright can make sleep more difficult. You also do not want to place the night-light too close to the child's crib or bed whenever possible.”Storage & organisation Furniture Textiles Kitchenware & tableware Kitchens Lighting Decoration Rugs, mats & flooring Beds & mattresses Baby & children Smart home Bathroom products Laundry & cleaning Plants & plant pots Home electronics Home improvement Outdoor living Food & beverages Christmas Shop Shop by room If your baby is waking for feeds in the night, you might find yourself fumbling around in the dark whilst attempting not to overstimulate them or disturb other family members. There’s no definitive answer to this question, like most parenting conundrums. Your child will likely grow out of any attachment to a night light by the time they are four or five years old, but this largely depends on the child. When it comes to helping your child get a good night's sleep, this machine has you covered on all counts. From Hatch Baby, it combines a night light, a sound machine, and a wake-up time alert in one easy-to-use unit. All options in smart lights use energy efficient LED bulbs that use less energy and last longer. Turn the lights all the way up when you need to and hit the dimmer switch when it’s time to adjust the mood for special occasions, parties or just a relaxing night on the couch listening to music.
