"So soft your baby forgets it. So beautiful you remember it."
— Danielle, NICU nurse
After nearly thirty years in the NICU, I know this: a baby feels the quality of what they wear. Merinowool is already exceptional. When you add a share of cashmere, something almost indescribable emerges — a softness your hands can feel and a warmth that a baby’s body immediately recognizes. This is the Snuggle Coco Merinowool & Cashmere in the color Sand.
Sand is a color that needs no proof. Warm, soft, and timeless — it suits every nursery, every season, and every outfit. It is not an ordinary cocoon. It is a conscious choice for parents who want to frame the very first beginning in the best that exists. A cocoon that envelops, defines, and calms — with the refined qualities of two of the most valuable textile materials in the world.
Why boundaries are essential for newborns
In the NICU, we work daily with boundaries — as a technique to stabilize vulnerable babies during medical procedures. The effect is immediately visible: babies relax, their breathing deepens, their heart rate normalizes. The Snuggle Coco brings that principle home. Soft enough for the first hours, strong enough to provide calm every day.
Softness at the micron level
Merinowool and cashmere both have fibers so fine that they do not itch, even on the most sensitive baby skin. The combination offers a softness that cotton alternatives cannot match.
Natural temperature regulation
Newborns cannot yet regulate their own temperature. Merinowool and cashmere are both naturally thermoregulating — they keep your baby warm when needed and prevent overheating when not.
Open underside for changing
The Snuggle Coco has an open underside — so you can change the diaper while your baby continues to feel the security of the cocoon. Less disturbance, more calm for both of you.
Suitable for preemies
Especially for vulnerable and premature babies, boundaries are extra valuable. The cocoon provides the warmth and enveloping feeling they particularly need.
The power of merinowool and cashmere together
Merinowool regulates temperature and is naturally self-cleaning. Cashmere adds an exceptional softness unmatched among natural fibers. Together they form a material that is both functional and special — a combination rarely found in baby products.

Important for safe use
The Snuggle Coco is designed for security and comfort. Always use the cocoon under supervision when the hoodie is worn over the head. For unsupervised sleep times, we recommend folding the hoodie down so your baby’s face remains free. Always place your baby on their back to sleep and ensure nose and mouth remain clear, following safe sleep guidelines.
Frequently asked questions
What makes this Snuggle Coco different from the Pointelle version?
The Pointelle Snuggle Coco is made of 100% merinowool in an openwork pointelle knit. The Snuggle Coco Merinowool & Cashmere combines merinowool with cashmere for an exceptionally soft, dense texture. Both offer the same boundaries and security, but the material feel differs noticeably. Also see the Pointelle Snuggle Coco Beige or Pointelle Snuggle Coco Camel.
Is cashmere safe for newborns?
Yes — cashmere, like fine merinowool, has fibers that do not itch on sensitive baby skin. The Snuggle Coco Merinowool & Cashmere is hypoallergenic and free of harmful substances.
Which matching items are available in the color Sand?
The color Sand is available as a complete line: the beanie, the newborn booties, the baby booties, the Jumpsuit Sky, and the 3-in-1 baby blanket.
How do I wash the Snuggle Coco with cashmere?
Hand wash at 30°C with a mild wool detergent. Gently squeeze — never wring — and lay flat to dry to maintain shape.
Is the Snuggle Coco suitable for preemies?
Yes — especially for preemies, gentle boundaries are valuable. The cocoon provides the warmth and security that vulnerable babies especially need.
Our pure merino wool and cashmere are so pure that they don't need to be washed before first use. The natural lanolin provides self-cleaning properties; often, a quick airing outside in the crisp morning air is enough to refresh the fibers.

Merinowool & Cashmere vs. Synthetic
Why the material makes a difference for your baby
From the NICU to your baby's nursery
Founder Note
"I don't believe in fleeting trends or the abundance of plastic in the nursery. Our collection was born from a practical need: items that do what they're supposed to do, without compromising your child's health.
Natural fibers are key here. Synthetic materials often seal against the skin, while merino wool and cashmere breathe and regulate temperature. This prevents overheating and irritation, which is essential for healthy sleep.
No harmful chemicals, no unnecessary details, and no flashy colors. Only the finest materials that last for years and retain their value. Honest textiles that contribute to a healthy start, without any fuss.
