Fledglings Bodyworn Sleepsuit - Blue

The Fledglings Bodyworn Sleepsuit in Blue is designed to help children stay securely and comfortably covered throughout the night. The zip-front design makes changing more convenient and stress-free for both children and carers. It also helps prevent the wearer from accessing their nappy, reducing the risk of smearing and promoting dignity and hygiene.

This unique sleepsuit is especially helpful for children and adults with sensory needs, learning disabilities, autism or conditions that may involve undressing during sleep. The snug, body-worn style provides a comforting sense of security while reducing night-time disturbances caused by kicked-off covers or clothing removal.
