Yes. Swado is designed with baby safety, comfort, and everyday care in mind.

• Hip-Healthy Design: Swado’s generous lower pouch gives baby’s hips and legs room to move naturally. Swado has been acknowledged by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute as a Hip-Healthy product.
• Third-Party Testing: Swado products are tested with third-party labs, including SGS and Bureau Veritas, for applicable children’s product safety requirements.
• Soft Fabric-Based Construction: Swado is designed without hard zippers, snaps, or buttons in the swaddle wrap. GoodCatch is our soft-silent fastener, made to feel gentle at baby’s touch points.
• Safe Use Guidance: Swado should create a snug chest hug, never a compressive wrap. Baby’s neck should stay clearly visible, and once baby shows signs of trying to roll, use Swado with arms free for sleep.

As with any swaddle, always follow safe sleep guidance: place baby on their back for sleep, keep the sleep space clear, and stop arms-in swaddling when baby shows signs of rolling.

Swado is designed to adjust as baby grows, so the best choice starts with baby’s fit now and the fabric feel you want for everyday care.

Fit Guide

Swado comes in two fits:

• Newborn Fit: Best for the closest early fit. Choose Newborn Fit for smaller or average newborns who benefit from closer upper-body containment.
• Grow-with-Me Fit: Best for more room and longer use. Choose Grow-with-Me Fit for larger newborns, fast-growing babies, or families preparing for the next stage.

Still unsure? For the closest early fit, choose Newborn Fit. If you’re choosing only one, Grow-with-Me Fit offers more room for longer use.

In the overlap range, check the fit: Swado should create a snug chest hug with baby’s neck clearly visible. Swado is designed to leave natural room for hips and legs.

Many families choose one of each — one for now, one for the next stage.

Fabric Guide

Each Swado fabric has its own comfort feel:

• Organic Cotton: Best first Swado for everyday use — soft, familiar, breathable, and versatile.
• Muslin: Light and airy for warmer rooms, hot weather, or babies who run warm.
• Bamboo: Smooth, cool, and breathable for babies who sweat easily or parents who prefer a silkier feel.
• Soft Jersey: Soft and stretchy for a cozy, flexible feel.

If you’re not sure where to start, choose Organic Cotton. It’s the simplest everyday first pick.

Swado is designed to make everyday swaddling simple: create a snug chest hug, choose the arm position that helps baby settle, and adjust gently with soft-silent GoodCatch fastening.

Before sleep, check three things:

• Baby’s neck is clearly visible.
• Chest hug feels secure, not compressive.
• Baby’s hips and legs have room to move naturally.

Swado supports hands-on-chest calming, hand-to-mouth soothing, one-arm-out transition, and arms-free sleep.

Once baby shows signs of trying to roll, use Swado with arms free for sleep.

Watch the video below for step-by-step guidance.

Close the GoodCatch areas before washing, then place Swado in the included laundry net / mesh laundry bag.

Washing & drying:

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle.
• Tumble dry low inside the laundry net, or hand wash and hang dry if preferred.
• Do not iron.
• Do not dry clean.
• Do not use fabric softener.

GoodCatch care:

To help reduce lint buildup, keep the GoodCatch areas closed during washing. If lint collects on the fastener over time, gently remove it with a lint roller or adhesive tape.
