![]() We recommend keeping these settings until your child is at least 2 years old. It’s amazing how well even really young kids do with the light/sound strategy! They catch on so quickly. You may notice they are very quiet until their light and birds turn on and then they will start talking or calling for you, etc. After doing this several times in a row, your little one will start to make the association. Make a HUGE deal that it’s time to wake up now and celebrate how great they did during the night or how quiet they were until their light turned green. ![]() The key with this is to head into their room as soon as their light turns green and the birds start singing. We recommend setting your child’s Hatch to turn GREEN and play the “bird’s chirping” sound at their designated morning wake time.ĭesignated Morning Wake Time: Birds Chirping + Green Light How to use the Hatch Rest for your older baby or young toddler (up to 2 years):Īs your baby grows, we recommend continuing to use the white noise feature (again, the TV static sound is the best for optimal sleep) + adding a “wake-up” sound and light.Įven very young children can begin to associate “wake up” time with a certain sound or light. Instead of turning on an overhead light, lamp, or the TV - the red light on the Hatch is a perfect balance. It can be a really good option to use the RED nightlight feature when you wake up for middle of the night feedings though! Keeping the room as dark and non-stimulating as possible will help you and your new baby sleep better. A newborn doesn’t need a nightlight, and actually you want your baby’s sleep environment to be as dark as possible. The great thing about the Hatch is that you can start using it from day one until forever! How to use the Hatch Rest for your newborn:įor all ages, we recommend using the white noise feature (specifically the TV static sound, as it’s the best option the hatch offers for optimal sleep).įor your newborn, you’ll want to use the Hatch primarily as a sound machine and wait to use the other features as your baby gets older. You can control all of the settings from your phone using the blue-tooth controlled app. It basically looks like any other sound machine, but it has several other helpful features that grow with your child (this is not a sponsored post - we just REALLY love our Hatch Rests over here at the Goodnight House). The Hatch Rest is an all in one sound machine, night light, time to rise clock, and audio monitor.
