Picture the scene. It’s a boiling, clammy evening in mid summer and you’re putting your baby down to bed.
While the temperatures are hovering in and around the mid twenties at the moment, you know later — say at 1 or 2am — the breeze is going to come in and your little one might get cold.
Do you dress them for now or for that time later? It can be hard, or almost impossible, to know.

Enter ergopouch. The brand behind the viral sleep sacks parents love to use on their babies and young children have today launched a clever smart baby monitor that not only helps to keep an eye on your child, but also tells you how to dress them.
The Drift Home Baby Monitor, $329.95, is a one-of-a-kind baby monitor designed with both parents and little ones in mind.
More than just a monitor, Drift Home fits seamlessly into the ergoPouch sleep ecosystem.
When used with the brand’s TOG-rated Pouches and Layers, it creates a full-circle solution for healthy, safe sleep routines from newborn through toddlerhood.
It does this by reading the room’s temperature and offering real-time recommendations to dress your child for sleep.
Whether it’s a vest, onesie and sack or just a vest and a sack, you can go into the evenings well-armed with everything you and your baby need for a good night’s sleep.
The device integrates intuitive monitoring with the brand’s globally trusted What to Wear (W2W) sleepwear guide, helping parents dress their baby appropriately based on room temperature.
It’s the only monitor to combine real-time environmental insights with evidence-based sleepwear recommendations.
“Drift Home empowers parents to feel confident at bedtime with real-time guidance, helping them dress their baby safely for sleep while protecting their privacy, all in one beautifully designed device.” Amanda Benson, Global Marketing Lead at ergoPouch, tells Best Picks.
“This is sleep safety and support, on another level,” sleep consultant and paediatric nurse adds.
The gadget is available online at ergopouch, at David Jones, selected independent retailers and Baby Bunting.
ergopouch has made a name for itself as a brand over the past few years for its viral sleepwear and sleep sacks for babies.
Dedicated to creating innovative, safe, and sustainable sleep solutions for families, it boasts award-winning sleepwear and smart tools like the Drift Home Baby Monitor.
As a dedicated fan of the sleep sacks for my baby and toddler daughters, I can’t wait to try the smart home monitor out.
