Why do you need a transition jacket?
In the early months, the snugness of a swaddle reminds newborns of the womb and also helps calm the Moro reflex while babies try to sleep. But, when a baby shows signs of rolling, they must transition out of the swaddle for safety. A transition jacket meets your baby in the middle: providing calm for the Moro reflex while allowing for safe rolling and tummy sleep.

Designed by Cara Dumaplin, NICU nurse, mom of four, and founder of the #1 newborn sleep class in the world.
“Over the years, I've worked with thousands of parents transitioning out of swaddles. I've gotten to see the struggles they face, concerns they have, and things they've wanted to see. I've also learned so much about how to make sure that babies can safely and smoothly transition out of the swaddle when they show signs of rolling. And I designed Jacky with all that in mind, and you and your baby in my heart.”
Frequently Asked Questions
-
We recommend swaddling with the b.e.s.t. swaddle from birth until your baby shows signs of rolling, which typically happens around 3-4 months. When you notice those signs, it's time to move out of the swaddle and into Jacky for safe, supported sleep.
-
Tested for harmful substances.
Every component, from the fabric and filling to the thread, labels, and silent-seal closure, is tested for harmful substances, including certain pesticides, heavy metals, dyes, and formaldehyde.
Held to the strictest standards for babies.
Our sleepwear meets Product Class I standards, the strictest OEKO-TEX® category, designed specifically for babies and toddlers up to age 3.
Independently tested.
An independent textile testing institute verifies that our sleepwear meets these strict standards. -
Jacky does not have an official TOG rating. When they test for a TOG rating, they take a small piece of the garment and then give it a rating. Because the chest is different from the waist, which is different from the arms, there's no way to give it an overall TOG. If you’re wondering how to dress your baby for sleep, this blog can help.
-
You can wash Jacky in the washing machine separately on a gentle cycle with cold water. We recommend laying it flat to dry to help preserve the quality of the fabric and the integrity of the silent-seal closure. If needed, you can tumble dry on low, but line drying is the gentlest option!
If you notice lint buildup on your silent-seal (or feel like it isn't sticking quite as well), grab a lint roller. Unlike traditional Velcro, where you have to pick lint out with your fingers, the silent-seal just needs a few swipes with a lint roller, and it's good to go. -
