Best Baby Sleep Soothers of 2025

"I have a FOMO baby who never likes to nap, but after trying this at a family member's home, my daughter fell asleep instantly. It plays both music and white noise, has a remote, and can be mounted to the crib. It’s a nap time saver!"

"I bought this toy for my 3-month-old baby, and she loves it! It's very lightweight and easy to carry. The screen is colorful, with two volume settings and four screen modes. It’s perfect for keeping her entertained or helping her sleep. A great value for the money!"

"I encourage any new parents to get this! With four different settings, it soothes my baby to sleep instantly. The twinkling lights are calming and not overstimulating. I can't imagine not having it, although the battery life does go quickly, requiring frequent replacements."

"As a teenager, my mom got me this for Christmas and I absolutely love it! It's adorable and soft, and the breathing function really helps during my anxiety attacks. I highly recommend it for both babies and anxious teens."

"I bought this little otter for my nephews who have ADHD and anxiety. They take it to bed every night, and the calming sounds help them relax and sleep better. I might even get one for myself—it’s just so cute and soothing!"

"I’ve been really pleased with this otter. It’s soft and cute, perfect for little hands. The soothing lullabies create a calming atmosphere at bedtime, and the light is just right—not too bright or dim. I definitely recommend it!"

"I recently got the Hatch Rest+ Portable Sound Machine, and I am absolutely thrilled with it! The portability is a game-changer. It's lightweight and compact, making it perfect for travel. The sound quality is excellent, with a great variety of calming options. I highly recommend it!"

"This little sound machine is a lifesaver! As a fan of Hatch products, I can say this one lives up to the brand's reputation. It's easy to use, delivers soothing sounds, and has incredible battery life. It has become an essential part of my parenting toolkit!"

"I'm actually writing this review from the hospital after just having my 4th baby, and this device has been a huge Godsend in getting some sleep! It’s so compact yet mighty, and I love the white noise sound. I’m really happy I bought it!"

"This product has been a lifesaver for us! We use it every single night in our daughter's room at bedtime. Now, she knows when she hears it that it’s time for bed. It’s small enough to take on the go and fits perfectly in her stroller. It's a necessity for us!"

"I absolutely love the customizable sound options of this soother. It’s incredibly easy to use and perfect for both naptime and outings. I found the ideal sound to calm my son, which is a huge advantage. But I do wish the sound lasted a bit longer, ideally around 12 hours. Despite that, I’d rate it 4 out of 5 stars for its convenience!"

"As a new mom, I bought this because my daughter didn’t like her car seat. It works like magic! The moment I turn it on, she calms down and often falls asleep. It has paid for itself many times over, and the battery life is fantastic—we’re on our first set after seven weeks!"

"I bought this as a gift, and it was so cute and adorable! The melodies are so sweet, and it's soft to the touch. My cousin's niece, who just had a baby, absolutely loves it!"

"This is one of the truly fantastic items I've purchased! I ordered it for my new 8-week puppy, and he adored it! The variety of songs and nature sounds helped him to sleep, and the volume control is key. Although it started to sound a bit off after a while, I would consider buying it again!"

"I received my lamby, and I was thrilled with the sound-activated feature! The sounds are soft and soothing, and the lamb itself is very soft. Plus, I found it at the cheapest price on Amazon, which was a bonus!"

"I just had a baby and decided to get this since my bassinet lacks any vibration feature. It's been perfect for helping my new baby sleep! The three vibration levels are fantastic, and I'm really pleased with my purchase."

"I cannot recommend this enough—it's truly a lifesaver with a newborn at home. The different vibration settings are incredibly helpful, and the automatic shut-off after 90 minutes really improves my baby's sleep quality."

"I bought this for my daughter to assist her newborn at night. It took me a little while to get used to it, but my baby calmed down quickly and fell asleep. It's a great addition to our nighttime routine!"

"I received the blue version of this owl for my youngest child, and my eldest absolutely fell in love with it. Since my eldest is afraid of the dark, she wanted to sleep with it, but so did my youngest. After a night of them fighting over it, we decided to get a second one. Now, both kids use their owls every night and fall asleep quickly!"

"My 4-month-old and my sister's 6-month-old both adore playing with this owl! The music lasts a good amount of time, the colors are bright, and it's incredibly soft."

"I bought this for my 9-month-old daughter, and she absolutely loves it! The toy is of excellent quality, featuring 4-5 color options and 45 baby lullabies. It's definitely a must-buy for a great price. I found myself dozing off with her too!"

"I found the vibrating mattress pad to be a lifesaver during our holiday travels with my 5-week-old. It's smaller and more convenient than our regular device at home, and it fits perfectly in our diaper bag. The three vibration modes provide just the right amount of soothing, and my baby was able to maintain their sleeping routine even amidst all the holiday chaos."

"As a foster puppy caregiver, I was recommended this vibration soother. I placed it under my semi-feral dog's bed pad, and to my surprise, it lulled him into a deep sleep despite my movements. If it can help my skittish dog relax, I can only imagine how effective it would be for babies. It charges quickly and lasts through naps beautifully."

"This mattress pad has really changed the game for me. My daughter used to need me by her side while sleeping, but now, thanks to the gentle vibrations, she feels safe and secure even when I'm not right next to her. It's lightweight and easy to take on trips, although I did find it a bit louder than I expected. Still, it hasn’t disturbed her sleep, which is what matters most."

"I found it to be super cute and a bit larger than expected, which I actually appreciate. The music and ambient sounds are relaxing for my baby, and the light is very handy in the dark."

"I bought this plush fox for my soon-to-arrive grandson. I can't wait for him to snuggle up with this adorable toy. Honestly, I wouldn't mind having one for myself!"

"Initially, I was excited about this product because I heard it could help kids sleep better. Unfortunately, my son was a bit freaked out by it, so we ended up just using it as a regular plush toy. It's well made, though!"

"I was skeptical about similar products before, but after my baby was born and her screams became relentless, I found myself in desperate need of help. I discovered this shusher on Amazon and bought it without hesitation. It really works! The sound it makes is different from my white noise machine and helps my baby calm down quickly. I love its portability and that I can adjust the volume. Just wish the buttons were easier to find in the dark!"

"After my toddler accidentally broke my original shusher, I needed a replacement fast. I chose this one because it was cheaper and I can confirm that the shush sound is just as calming. I appreciate the easier button controls and the loop for attaching it to my carrier. Overall, I'm really glad I saved the money and went with this option!"

"As a new mom, I can’t believe how quickly this machine calms my baby! It’s incredibly portable and has multiple timer settings. The shushing sound mimics my voice perfectly. It’s been a lifesaver for bedtime and naps!"
