Story of Sleepyhead
The birth of our weighted blanket started when a nursing Sister who runs a private baby clinic asked us to make a weighted blanket to help babies sleep. After trying different mediums we had a micro biologist test them on their new baby and she advised us in which direction to go re the filling.
Then an occupational therapist who had just completed a book called “Baby Sense” in which she advised mothers to use a weighted blanket for babies who would not settle. She had just had another baby and she tested the weight and found it perfect for her child. She asked for 12 samples and had Mothers test the blanket out and fill in a questionnaire as to when and how the blanket worked.
The results were fantastic. At that time the blanket weighed 650grams. Every baby is niggly at some time in their baby hood and besides that we all like to feel cuddled and that is where this blanket comes in.
The occupational therapists explained that when babies used to lie on their tummy’s there was pressure on their torso which comforted them and made them calm so by putting the weighted blanket on top of babies torso it does the same thing.
This product has been rebranded by Little Sanz for the UK market from the orginal South African Grace Weighted Babt Blanket, manufactured by Orthopeadic Textiles Pty under the name of Sleepyhead.

NO NEED TO SWADDLE - the Ultimate SLEEP AID weighted baby blanket
Sleepyhead was designed by a South African mother who like many mothers had often made garments for her offspring and her grandchildren.
Realising that something special was needed to help settle and relax the babies she knew and loved, she developed the specialised weighted baby blanket so the baby felt secure mimicking the feeling it was being cuddled. This became affectionately known by family and friends as Sleepyhead before it went into mass production with an established orthopedic medical company in South Africa. They called this the Weighted Baby Blanket by Grace...
The Grace weighted baby blanket was officially launched at the beginging of October 2006 in South Africa.
The main retail outlets in South Africa have been the baby and pharmaceutical companies for the baby blanket, where it has been selling well to a small but expanding market. With the UK baby market being one of the biggest retail and ecommerce markets there is, the Grace weighted baby blanket rebranded as Sleepyhead launched here with Little Sanz appointed as the UK Sales Agent.
