Couette bébé : quand et comment la choisir ? - Label Naturel

Choosing the best duvet for your baby is an important decision to ensure their comfort and well-being throughout the night. Label Naturel, natural bed linen specialist, provides you with all the advice you need to select the duvet best suited to your needs.

Let's start with the age when your baby can discover the duvet, and thus allow him a good night's sleep.

When to introduce the duvet into your baby's bed

Adding a duvet to your baby's bed must be done at the appropriate time. You must take into account your age, your motor skills and your needs for warmth and comfort when sleeping.

From what age can you put a duvet in your baby's bed?

It is recommended to add a duvet to your baby's bed when he is able to move and turn around independently. This condition helps avoid any risk of suffocation during sleep. This is usually done between 18 months and 2 years, depending on the child's motor development.

Is it recommended to sleep with a duvet for a baby?

As with adults, children enjoy sleeping with a duvet. Using it allows you to rest while being enveloped in soft and welcoming warmth. This cocoon effect is very reassuring and pleasant for your little one. This will allow him to spend beautiful nights.

How to choose the best duvet for your child

At Label Naturel, we advise you to opt for a natural duvet, which combines comfort and respect for the skin.

Thus, we only offer natural duvets, developed with 100% organic fibers, labeled GOTS and Oeko-Tex®.

Favor a natural filling

The filling of our baby duvets is made from noble and natural fibers:

  • Organic cotton: grown without pesticides, GMOs or chemical fertilizers
  • Organic wool: This natural fiber recovered with respect for animal and ecological well-being.

The high quality of this filling provides a duvet that naturally regulates heat and humidity during the night. Your child sleeps dry, without excess heat.

In addition, the 100% cotton percale cover guarantees a very soft touch, which takes care of baby's skin.

Label security GOTS and Oeko-Tex®

All our baby duvets are under label GOTS and Oeko-Tex®. These certifications ensure that your child sleeps in a healthy, quality duvet.

The label Oeko-Tex guarantees you total traceability throughout the production chain, and an absence of substances harmful to health.

The label GOTS ensures transparency on the product and its composition. It also validates the biological quality of the fibers used.

Your baby's health and quality of sleep are precious: thanks to these labels, you are sure to make the right choice.

Choosing the right duvet size for a baby

Our baby duvets come in two sizes and are suitable for beds measuring 60 x 120 cm:

Baby duvet 80*120: This size allows the duvet to protrude a little on each side of the bed, providing perfect balance.

Baby duvet 100*135: This size is ideal for little ones who fidget a lot at night. With it, you are sure that your child remains covered, whatever their movements.

Select the ideal heat

Our summer duvets are light and ideal for children sensitive to heat. They are also suitable for rooms where the temperature is equal to or greater than 20°.

For less heated rooms, where the temperature is below 20°, choose our winter duvets: they are warm and will meet your child's needs. If the latter is sensitive to the cold, our winter duvets will be ideal.

Discover our natural baby duvets

Specialist in natural bed linen, we offer you two duvets adapted to your baby. You can select the one that suits you best: summer duvet, winter duvet, or favor our duvet pack which allows you to change according to the seasons and needs.

FAQs

At what age can you start using a duvet for a baby?
Experts recommend waiting at least 18 months, sometimes up to 2 years, before introducing a duvet. Before this age, the sleeping bag remains the safest solution to avoid any risk of suffocation.
Why choose a sleeping bag rather than a duvet for the first months?
The sleeping bag keeps baby warm without loose textiles that can cover their face. It greatly reduces the risk of suffocation and guarantees a stable temperature throughout the night.
What signs show that my child is ready for a comforter?
Your child turns around alone, takes off his sleeping bag or asks for a Blanket like adults: these are signs that he is ready to move on to the duvet.
What size duvet to choose for a baby bed?
For a 60×120 cm bed, opt for an 80×120 duvet if your baby moves little, or 100×135 if he moves a lot. These dimensions avoid excess material and ensure comfort and safety.
When should you switch from a baby duvet to a child or adult duvet?
The transition generally occurs around the age of 3, when the child sleeps in a standard 90×190 cm bed. It's time to adopt a child's or junior's duvet adapted to this new size.
How to prevent baby from overheating under the duvet?
Monitor the room temperature (ideally 18 to 20°C) and adapt the pajamas. Check the child's neck and hands: if he sweats, reduce the thickness or change the duvet.
Can the duvet pose a danger to baby?
A quilt that is too large or used too soon can cover the baby's face and pose a danger. This is why it is essential to wait until the child can move around alone and push back the duvet if necessary.
