Compliance: How we ensure weight safety
Rigorously tested against mandatory and voluntary safety requirementsZen Sleepwear complies with several mandatory and voluntary children's product tests for product construction, flammability and product safety. The Cuddle Pad is self-contained to prevent spilling or overheating, and the gentle weight does not restrict breathing or movement.
Construction: How sleeping safely feels
Exceptional care, craftsmanship and attention to detail go into construction of all our Zen Sleepwear, as part of our dedication to sleep safety and commitment to sustainability.-
• Soft breathable fabrics
We offer 100% super soft, breathable cotton for year-round comfort, or 70% rayon from bamboo fabric for luxurious softness, natural moisture wicking and temperature regulation.
• Tested for harmful toxins
Zen Sleepwear products do not contain harmful dyes and are made to withstand flammability without toxic chemicals.
• Easy accessibility
Soft Velcro closures, 2-way zippers and adjustable straps are just a few of the features you’ll find in various Zen Sleepwear products that keep safety in easy reach.
• Rigorous QC at every turn
Throughout the product development process, we work with a variety of accredited safety laboratories to ensure the highest quality control and compliance with safety guidelines.
Swaddling safety tips
Nested Bean offers 3 kinds of gently weighted swaddles: The Zen Neo™, which comforts with a womblike pod design, The Zen One™, which zips up and contains a secure belly band, and The Zen Swaddle®, which wraps like a traditional swaddle. Regardless of which swaddle you pick, it should not be used with infants less than 7 pounds. It should always be used as instructed, and should only be used with infant placed on back. Discontinue swaddling when baby shows signs of rolling over.
Never use swaddle with products with restraints such as car seats, strollers, swings, etc. Always place babies to sleep in a crib or bassinet, on their backs.
Zen Neo™ safety tips
• When placing your baby in the product, make sure the neckline falls right at the base of baby’s neck so the product does not rise up as baby moves.• Ensure that the top edge of swaddle wing is always at the chest level, never above your infant’s neck or covering his or her nose and mouth.
• Secure baby with arms at their sides before zipping up swaddle and fastening Cuddle Pad™.
Zen One™ safety tips
• When placing your baby in the product, make sure the neckline falls right at the base of baby’s neck so the product does not rise up as baby moves.• When the secure band is not being used to position the baby’s hands by their sides, it must be secured around the baby’s belly to prevent the product from rising up.
• The Zen One safely adapts to every sleep style from birth to rolling over. Learn more about how to use the Zen One for newborns, active sleepers and transitioning.
Zen Swaddle® safety tips
• Ensure proper positioning of swaddle wings and weighted areas around your baby, by placing infant’s shoulders no lower than 1 ½ inches below the top edge of the back panel.• Do not allow infants to slide down inside swaddle. Place infants less than 23” tall or less than 1 month old with feet inside the inner pocket and pull pocket over waist. Fold any extra fabric at the bottom of the swaddle up over torso and secure with swaddle wings.
• Swaddle wings must be securely tucked under your infant’s body. Ensure it’s not too tight by slipping your hand between baby and swaddle; it should feel snug but not uncomfortable.
• Ensure that the top edge of swaddle wing is always at the chest level, never above your infant’s neck or covering his or her nose and mouth.
Testing: How we make sleeping safer
Safety is our number one priority. Nested Bean has conducted a pilot breathing and weight-safety study of its unique design feature. The study indicates that with our carefully calibrated weight ratio, pulse and oxygen saturation levels remain in healthy ranges. In addition, Zen Sleepwear complies with all mandatory children's product tests for product construction, flammability and product safety. Our safety construction prevents any loose filling from spilling. Overall lightweight design prevents overheating and allows free movement.
To ensure safety compliance of every product, we put all our Zen Sleepwear through a broad range of mandatory and voluntary tests, such as the ones below:
-
Construction Safety Testing

• Seam Strength (2)
• Sharp Edges & Sharp Objects (4)
• Small Part Choking Hazard
• Torque & Tension (2)
• Post-Laundering tests (2)
