- Two-way zipper makes diaper changes fast and hassle-free, even at night.

I had one for my first daughter and knew I had to get one for my second that is due in December. Would recommend over and over again!
Vikki C.
For independent sleep, my almost 3 months old baby can’t sleep without it! We sleep longer at night thanks to our Nested bean sleep sack. He’s so wiggly without it, his arms and hands wakes him up every time. From the beginning he never loved being swaddled and wanted his arms free. This helped him still have access to his hands but just enough to self sooth back to sleep.
Ashley F.
Perfect for my little guy who doesn’t want his arms down anymore but still needs something to cover them! He seems to love the weighed part in the middle!
Kaitlin H.
Baby girl loves it. She was not happy being fully swaddled within the first 2 weeks and this was the perfect transition for her to move her arms but have some of the comfort of a swaddle.
Rebecca B.
Our 2 month old little girl started sleeping 6 hours straight from the first night!! Highly recommend for parents who enjoy their sleep!
Jennifer B.
After one week of use, my baby sleeps 6 hours straight!
Brandi L.
Was skeptical but I got more sleep even the first night. My almost 3 month old would wake up because of his startle reflex and I’ve only been getting small stretches of sleep. First week and he’s already slept 5-6 hours. I’ll definitely be purchasing when he sizes up.
Jeremy J.
Works great baby loves to sleep in it
Constance D.
Took a little while to arrive but my newborn likes it.
Haley M.
Helps baby self soothe and settle back to sleep at night.
Lauren L.
Used this for big brother and loved it so much we had to order it again!
Louanne P.
Purchased this for my daughter in law because our grandson was waking himself up. She is now getting some much needed sleep.
Yetta K.
I got it for my gran daughter and her mother says that it works wonders. The baby sleeps longer and the mom loves it.
Jessica T.
I really like it! My baby looks like an angel! Although it didn’t completely help due to my baby having a severe startle but I use it everyday and just sized up!
Mendi J.
My girl love love loves her zen one! We will be purchasing more!!
Susan C.
Baby loved the swaddle with blankets but was growing out of that type of way. These have helped transition.
Jenifer R.
My baby loves it! She sleeps through the whole night with it, and as soon as I put her in, she falls asleep quickly. It’s very comfortable for her, and I couldn’t be happier with this purchase!
Melanie
Best sleep my baby has gotten. Loves having his armsnup!
Denise M S.
Baby slept longer than usual. Little bulky on our tiny girl but its a keeper.
Brittanie B.
After switching from a Halo sleep sack my little one is sleeping a lot better and even taking better naps
Bridgette
It rides up on my little ones face/neck no matter if i pull it down. Overall nice
Melanie S.
This is the 3rd Nested Bean product we have purchased. We love everything we have tried.
Taciany B.
I love it . My baby is sleep much better
Sydney R.
This is the 2nd baby we’ve used Nested Bean sleep sacks with, but our first to use the Zen One! She was sleeping in a different sleep sack that allowed her arms to be up but was so restless at night and would wake herself up constantly. We switched to the Zen One around 10 weeks old and we LOVE it! She loves being able to access her hands AND we love that the arms can be taken off when she transitions into regular sleep sacks so we can use it along our 5 other Nested Bean sleep sacks!
Ayan G.
Love it! My little one didn’t like his arms strapped down and this worked wonders!
Danielle F.
My son was always fussy when it came to putting him to sleep in the crib. My husband stumbled upon nested bean via instagram and said we should try it. Since buying it, my son has slept through each night soundly. What we love about it, it’s swaddle feature to wrap close. My son likes being swaddle but would break out of every swaddle we do. This was a game changer!
Jill M.
Love this
Erika R.
My 4 month old used to sleep in swaddles but she kept taking her arms out and waking herself up. I tried Nested bean for 3 nights now and it’s a game changer. Just like every parents review I should’ve used this sack since day 1. Don’t waste your time just buy it!
Peyton H.
Our daughter loves this sleep sack!
Tiffany A.
Best sack i have ever bought. She sleeps amazing in it! I will buy the bigger ones soon! Worth the money
Alejandra P.

Sleeping through night
Lauren F.
Absolutely LOVEE this swaddle. Was very hesitant to buy it because i thought it is like the other sleep sack (same look one) and my baby hated that one. But NOPE, my boy sleeps so good in this sleep sack. Absolutely recommend this to anyone!
Lindsay V.
My 10 week old daughter smiles when she realizes she is in her Zen sleep sack. It has done wonders not only for our bedtime routine but nap time as well.
Maryanne H.
I love these onsies so much they have helped my baby girl!!!
Tara R.
Great quality! Our kiddo is getting used to not being swaddled, and this is a great transition.
Cam-Thu D.
My 8 week old baby girl loves the nested bean arms up sleep sack. I got a bigger size as she’s a long and skinny baby.
Crista Y.
I used this with my first born and now using it with my second baby. We love it!
Crista Y.
My baby loves it! He sleeps throughout the night with it and so easy to use.
angela f.
Fits baby good
Camelia P.
Our little guy has transitioned out of swaddles and this has been the best transition for him! He loves the mesh on the hands, which help him with self soothing. The weighted chest makes him feel close to someone, even when in his crib. That’s a huge help since he’s become such a contact sleeper these days. At 2 months we’re getting 5 hour stretches at night and as sleep deprived bee parents we could not be happier!
Lucia P.
Worked great and she’s sleeping so well!
Ariella S.
I'm your biggest fan! A friend threw her nested bean in a bag with some stuff she gave me, I put it on, there were no arms, it was for an older kid. I found the zen on your website that makes the baby feel more snuggly, at 2.5 months my baby has been sleeping about 8 hours a night! It's amazing! I wish this existed for my older 3 kids (the youngest being 6!)
Stephanie M.
She sleeps so much better through the night now.
Karen L.
I was skeptical about this sleeping sack, but it works great!! My daughter sleeps better during the night, and we sleep better, too. So it was a good investment for us. I love the design—it is so cute. Thank you!!
Tori T.
This is our favorite swaddle/sleeper! I was gifted the newborn swaddle and upon my son outgrowing it, I HAD to buy the 3-6 month version! Finally started sleeping a solid 6-7 hours straight in it! It’s a must for our family!
Shelby H.
I wish we would’ve found nested bean sooner! My daughter is an active sleeper and has hated having her arms at her side from the day we brought her home. This sleep sack gives her the ability to have her arms up for bedtime like she does when she naps during the day!
We have been getting 4-5 hour sleep stretches at night since using Zen One and I couldn’t be more thankful! 10/10
Maryanne H.
My daughter struggles with gas pain at night which causes her to flinch fast and hard. Her reflexes wake her but this has seemed to help. It’s nots a miracle worker but it definitely is a game changer and I’d even purchase another because of the great result we did have with it.
Aneta K.
I love it!
Tahnee J.
Literally the best thing since sliced bread. My baby girl sleeps like a champ!
Sarah C.
Our little guy has done really well with the Zen One. He went from sleeping 3-4 hours at a time to averaging a 6 hour stretch each night. He even slept through the night twice in the 10 days that we have used this swaddle. He still has some ups and downs like any baby but this has made a big difference for all of us. I am so grateful!
Lauren D.
Absolutely love this! Going to order a bigger size as I don’t want him to grow out of it!
Darius B.
Love love love this! It’s not just for sleep it works great for those days they just wanna be held and you can’t put them down but with this blessing here…AMAZING!!!
Bre B.
The nested bean does work! My baby slept from 9pm-4am the first night and 10pm to 6am the second night. For reference she is 11 weeks old and crib training. The material is soft and breathable and the arm holders are mesh that can be zipped off/on. It’s worth the money because you can’t put a price on a good nights sleep.
Leslie J.
This has been a huge help when transitioning to arms out. Love the dual zipper, the weighted cuddle pad, the mesh sleeves, even the fact that there's no tag at the back of the neck to cause irritation. Would buy again!
Mary G.
Works good, little big around neck
Kara Z.
What a great product! My daughter had heard about Nested Bean through a friend, so I purchased the Zen One Classic for my Grandson. Now he is getting a more restful sleep.
Kelly K.
Bought the nested bean on the advice of one of my friends. I was looking for a transition swaddle with arms up and she told me her kids loved it. I think my baby loves it? Might be tough to judge in the heat of the 4 month sleep regression, but she doesn't scream and wakes up pretty happy. Even if it's more than I would like her to throughout the night. She's a hands in mouth gal, so the mesh sleeves are nice.
Devin C.
My baby loves this swaddle sack! He would always break out of traditional swaddles and the velcro swaddles, but he can't break out of this one. He also loves sleeping with his arms up and this is the perfect swaddle for that.
Cassie W.
Like it
Shelby W.
Second time momma. Our little hated being swaddled but his startle reflex left him restless. He slept four hours the very first night we put him in the nested bean sleep sack. He loves having his hands up by his face. This sleep sack has been an absolute game changer. I wish I would’ve tried it with my first, as we tried every other sleep sack brand under the sun!
Kaitlyn F.
Night 2 so far so good!!
Joanna Q.
My baby sleeps longer with this!
Kelsey N.
Love this swaddle! I do wish there was a larger size option because my 99th percentile baby is outgrowing the largest size at only 3 months, but still flails his arms around when sleeping.
Krista B.
No other swaddle worked for us. This is a game changer for my baby’s sleep !!!!
Evan M.
Our little dude hates swaddle and hates sleeping... we saw and ordered this at 3am in desperation. Its awesome. It calms him and induces sleepiness. He's started sleeping much longer at night and waking way less. We are very happy.
Prenita S.
My little one sleeps so well with this on. Worth the money.
Kelsey S.
Our 3rd baby and our 3rd round with Nested Bean! It’s a family favorite over here
DANIELLE R.
I was very skeptical of this but we were so desperate to get some sleep. Our little is on the chunkier side and all of the Velcro swaddles we used were too small and he would break out of them. We have not run into this issue at all with this our nested bean swaddle. We will definitely be ordering more!
Carrie D.
My first baby loved his Nested Bean sleep sack (4 years ago) so when I saw the Zen One, I had to purchase 2 for my second baby! He went from waking up 1-2x per night to sleeping all night, 10+ hour stretches. I will always sing Nested Bean praises!
Sara S.
Love this product!
Jessica C.
The Zen One is one of the most critical purchases we made as first-time parents for our newborn; truly could not survive without it. Substantial naps. Sleeping all night by month 2. The mesh allows her to bring her hands to her mouth and self soothe. Now, she is 4 months and smiles / gets excited every time we zip her up. Her Zen One is her happy place.
Abbey P.
Took a few days for our girl to adjust but she loves it! She’s sleeping so much better through the night now! Thank you!
Rachel E.
My baby girl is a little over a month old and she only wakes up one time for one feeding. I feel like she sleeps a lot better and sometimes I don’t know what I would do without this. She used to want to sleep on me all the time and now she is sleeping on her own for almost a whole month.
Jackie B.
Our son immediately went from sleeping 3-4 hours at a time to 5-7! Game changer for sure!
Courtney E.
My son sleeps so good in this!
Annie A.
My baby LOVES his Nested Bean swaddles. He has recently discovered his hands and I love that he can self soothe and gnaw on them through the mesh sleeves. He sleeps so peacefully in his Zen One swaddle that I have several so he always has a clean one. I always recommend Nested Bean swaddles to my friends who have babies!
Paige E.
Love love love this sleep sack!
Paige E.
The best sleep she gets is while wearing this sleep sack! Good sleep for her = good sleep for me!
Quinlyn C.
We have used a different style from nested bean for our 3 older kids, so we know what a difference they make for sleep. With our youngest, I felt she needed more of a transitional piece after she was too big for the swaddle but not heavy enough for our 6 month sleeveless sleep sack. This 3-6 month classic zen sack is perfect. I love that her arms are contained but that the mesh allows for the material to dry completely between her naps and bedtime. I’m also glad to be able to take them off once she is ready to have her arms free and to feel confident that the weight is appropriate for her size until she is ready to move up to our other nested bean sleep sacks.
Christina O.
I love the design and the mesh arms help relieve my anxiety of the baby covering her face when she sleeps.
Paige P.
My 2 month old sleeps 8-10 hours at night with this sack! She loves her hands out but contained at the same time & loves to be held. This is an amazing product! I have since bought 4 more in bigger sizes.
Trista C.
My baby loves it- he slept 6.5 hours straight the first night!
Veronica A.
My son had been being fussy at times fighting his sleep and when he would fall to sleep he would get startled and wake up fussy again. So when I received this I immediately put it on him and he quiet down and fell asleep on his own and stayed asleep straight for about 4 hrs. I can say it really helps, I just wish I purchased a bigger size since he is growing rapidly.
Samantha M.
While I love that it helps nestle my little one down for falling asleep, I find she wakes up more at nighy than when I wrap her in a swaddle. Maybe it's the transition of not being all wrapped up tight and having a little wiggle room.
Samantha B.
I got one from a friend and decided to buy another one and a larger size for when she gets older. It definitely helps with her startle reflex. I just wish the band inside was a little bigger it is hard to wrap both arms down. But I do feel this has improved sleep for me and my baby. I do think I will buy the sleep sack when the time is right ! I am glad for my purchase.
Kimberly P.
Absolutely love the Zen One swaddle! We’ve been using it for almost three months and it’s been so helpful for creating good sleep habits for our little one. Would 100% recommend!
Olivia
One of my favorite purchases! Easy to use especially in the middle of the night after my son wakes up to eat. HIGHLY recommend
Carli S.
Most nights we love it, although I do feel the leg area could be a little bigger to allow better leg movement for longer legged kiddos
cassi w.
My baby boy is 3 months old and he refused to sleep on his back! He would only sleep on his tummy or contact sleep. He also still has his startle reflex and wakes himself up constantly. I have other children so I needed him to nap in his bassinet in order for me to get anything done! But sleeping on his belly made me nervous so I tried this, trying not to get my hopes up! It is a dream come true! The first time he wore it he slept on his back for 45 minutes!! He now wears it for every nap and it's the only way he'll sleep without being held!
Kailyn S.
Our little one loves these swaddles! I spent money on so many different swaddles before he was born and this one was the winner! I love the strap in the middle to help with his startle reflex!
Torie M.
Made all the difference with my 1 month old. She went from every 2 hours to every 6 hours of straight sleep. I recommended it to a family memeber and she had a pretty similar response. It’s not overly weighed either.
Christine K.
Sleep! Finally!
Uneque B.
It’s amazing! My little one slept longer as soon as we used the swaddle. He loves to swing his arms and explore his hands when he is awake so having the ability to unzip the arms in a swaddle is life changing
Cheri H.
Used this for all three of my babies. They have been different sleepers, but this works like a dream. It's very difficult to get out of this swaddle and the beans work to keep them asleep longer.
Amanda J.
My newborn lovesss this swaddle since he can keep his hands by his mouth!
Veronica
My grandson hates it
Sara S.
We love this sleep sack. We tried others and my little boy hated them because he wanted his hand free next to his face. This sleeper allowed him to get his hands up by his face but holds them down enough so he won’t have the startling effect that wakes him up.
Madison D.
We are loving the nested beans zen sleep sacks. My little one has liked having his hands by his face since he was born. These have been a safe solution that help me have peace of mind.

He even slept through the night twice in the 10 days that we have used this swaddle. He still has some ups and downs like any baby but this has made a big difference for all of us. I am so grateful!
Lauren D.
Absolutely love this! Going to order a bigger size as I don’t want him to grow out of it!
Darius B.
Love love love this! It’s not just for sleep it works great for those days they just wanna be held and you can’t put them down but with this blessing here…AMAZING!!!

The nested bean does work! My baby slept from 9pm-4am the first night and 10pm to 6am the second night. For reference she is 11 weeks old and crib training. The material is soft and breathable and the arm holders are mesh that can be zipped off/on. It’s worth the money because you can’t put a price on a good nights sleep.
Leslie J.
This has been a huge help when transitioning to arms out. Love the dual zipper, the weighted cuddle pad, the mesh sleeves, even the fact that there's no tag at the back of the neck to cause irritation. Would buy again!
Mary G.
Works good, little big around neck

What a great product! My daughter had heard about Nested Bean through a friend, so I purchased the Zen One Classic for my Grandson. Now he is getting a more restful sleep.
Kelly K.
Bought the nested bean on the advice of one of my friends. I was looking for a transition swaddle with arms up and she told me her kids loved it. I think my baby loves it? Might be tough to judge in the heat of the 4 month sleep regression, but she doesn't scream and wakes up pretty happy. Even if it's more than I would like her to throughout the night. She's a hands in mouth gal, so the mesh sleeves are nice.

My baby loves this swaddle sack! He would always break out of traditional swaddles and the velcro swaddles, but he can't break out of this one. He also loves sleeping with his arms up and this is the perfect swaddle for that.

Second time momma. Our little hated being swaddled but his startle reflex left him restless. He slept four hours the very first night we put him in the nested bean sleep sack. He loves having his hands up by his face. This sleep sack has been an absolute game changer. I wish I would’ve tried it with my first, as we tried every other sleep sack brand under the sun!
Kaitlyn F.
Night 2 so far so good!!
Joanna Q.
My baby sleeps longer with this!
Kelsey N.
Love this swaddle! I do wish there was a larger size option because my 99th percentile baby is outgrowing the largest size at only 3 months, but still flails his arms around when sleeping.
Krista B.
No other swaddle worked for us. This is a game changer for my baby’s sleep !!!!
Evan M.
Our little dude hates swaddle and hates sleeping... we saw and ordered this at 3am in desperation. Its awesome. It calms him and induces sleepiness. He's started sleeping much longer at night and waking way less. We are very happy.
Prenita S.
My little one sleeps so well with this on. Worth the money.
Kelsey S.
Our 3rd baby and our 3rd round with Nested Bean! It’s a family favorite over here
DANIELLE R.
I was very skeptical of this but we were so desperate to get some sleep. Our little is on the chunkier side and all of the Velcro swaddles we used were too small and he would break out of them. We have not run into this issue at all with this our nested bean swaddle. We will definitely be ordering more!
Carrie D.
My first baby loved his Nested Bean sleep sack (4 years ago) so when I saw the Zen One, I had to purchase 2 for my second baby! He went from waking up 1-2x per night to sleeping all night, 10+ hour stretches. I will always sing Nested Bean praises!
Sara S.
Love this product!
Jessica C.
The Zen One is one of the most critical purchases we made as first-time parents for our newborn; truly could not survive without it. Substantial naps. Sleeping all night by month 2. The mesh allows her to bring her hands to her mouth and self soothe. Now, she is 4 months and smiles / gets excited every time we zip her up. Her Zen One is her happy place.
Abbey P.
Took a few days for our girl to adjust but she loves it! She’s sleeping so much better through the night now! Thank you!
Rachel E.
My baby girl is a little over a month old and she only wakes up one time for one feeding. I feel like she sleeps a lot better and sometimes I don’t know what I would do without this. She used to want to sleep on me all the time and now she is sleeping on her own for almost a whole month.
Jackie B.
Our son immediately went from sleeping 3-4 hours at a time to 5-7! Game changer for sure!
Courtney E.
My son sleeps so good in this!
Annie A.
My baby LOVES his Nested Bean swaddles. He has recently discovered his hands and I love that he can self soothe and gnaw on them through the mesh sleeves. He sleeps so peacefully in his Zen One swaddle that I have several so he always has a clean one. I always recommend Nested Bean swaddles to my friends who have babies!
Paige E.
Love love love this sleep sack!
Paige E.
The best sleep she gets is while wearing this sleep sack! Good sleep for her = good sleep for me!
Quinlyn C.
We have used a different style from nested bean for our 3 older kids, so we know what a difference they make for sleep. With our youngest, I felt she needed more of a transitional piece after she was too big for the swaddle but not heavy enough for our 6 month sleeveless sleep sack. This 3-6 month classic zen sack is perfect. I love that her arms are contained but that the mesh allows for the material to dry completely between her naps and bedtime. I’m also glad to be able to take them off once she is ready to have her arms free and to feel confident that the weight is appropriate for her size until she is ready to move up to our other nested bean sleep sacks.
Christina O.
I love the design and the mesh arms help relieve my anxiety of the baby covering her face when she sleeps.
Paige P.
My 2 month old sleeps 8-10 hours at night with this sack! She loves her hands out but contained at the same time & loves to be held. This is an amazing product! I have since bought 4 more in bigger sizes.
Trista C.
My baby loves it- he slept 6.5 hours straight the first night!
Veronica A.
My son had been being fussy at times fighting his sleep and when he would fall to sleep he would get startled and wake up fussy again. So when I received this I immediately put it on him and he quiet down and fell asleep on his own and stayed asleep straight for about 4 hrs. I can say it really helps, I just wish I purchased a bigger size since he is growing rapidly.
Samantha M.
While I love that it helps nestle my little one down for falling asleep, I find she wakes up more at nighy than when I wrap her in a swaddle. Maybe it's the transition of not being all wrapped up tight and having a little wiggle room.
Samantha B.
I got one from a friend and decided to buy another one and a larger size for when she gets older. It definitely helps with her startle reflex. I just wish the band inside was a little bigger it is hard to wrap both arms down. But I do feel this has improved sleep for me and my baby. I do think I will buy the sleep sack when the time is right ! I am glad for my purchase.
Kimberly P.
Absolutely love the Zen One swaddle! We’ve been using it for almost three months and it’s been so helpful for creating good sleep habits for our little one. Would 100% recommend!
Olivia
One of my favorite purchases! Easy to use especially in the middle of the night after my son wakes up to eat. HIGHLY recommend
Carli S.
Most nights we love it, although I do feel the leg area could be a little bigger to allow better leg movement for longer legged kiddos
cassi w.
My baby boy is 3 months old and he refused to sleep on his back! He would only sleep on his tummy or contact sleep. He also still has his startle reflex and wakes himself up constantly. I have other children so I needed him to nap in his bassinet in order for me to get anything done! But sleeping on his belly made me nervous so I tried this, trying not to get my hopes up! It is a dream come true! The first time he wore it he slept on his back for 45 minutes!! He now wears it for every nap and it's the only way he'll sleep without being held!
Kailyn S.
Our little one loves these swaddles! I spent money on so many different swaddles before he was born and this one was the winner! I love the strap in the middle to help with his startle reflex!
Torie M.
Made all the difference with my 1 month old. She went from every 2 hours to every 6 hours of straight sleep. I recommended it to a family memeber and she had a pretty similar response. It’s not overly weighed either.
Christine K.
Sleep! Finally!
Uneque B.
It’s amazing! My little one slept longer as soon as we used the swaddle. He loves to swing his arms and explore his hands when he is awake so having the ability to unzip the arms in a swaddle is life changing
Cheri H.
Used this for all three of my babies. They have been different sleepers, but this works like a dream. It's very difficult to get out of this swaddle and the beans work to keep them asleep longer.
Amanda J.
My newborn lovesss this swaddle since he can keep his hands by his mouth!
Veronica
My grandson hates it
Sara S.
We love this sleep sack. We tried others and my little boy hated them because he wanted his hand free next to his face. This sleeper allowed him to get his hands up by his face but holds them down enough so he won’t have the startling effect that wakes him up.
Madison D.
We are loving the nested beans zen sleep sacks. My little one has liked having his hands by his face since he was born. These have been a safe solution that help me have peace of mind.
