Early waking is a problem many families must manage once their child can get up and out of bed by themselves. Our Green to Rise Light gives little ones a gentle visual cue to let them know when it’s time to sleep and when it’s time to start the day.
Parents use the Glow App on their phone to set the time for the light to switch from red to green. At that time, the Pink Noise and Humidifier will also turn off, removing the protective layers that help keep little ones asleep. Many little ones will wake up as soon as they hear the Pink Noise turn off.

Our Green to Rise Light can be used as early as 6 months, as
soon as they can identify different colours.
Once little one is 18 months old, parents can begin to teach them about staying in bed while the light is red and getting up only once the light goes Green. The Green Light is also a popular nightlight for children with ADHD or ASD, as well as little ones who are overstimulated by the Red Light. We recommend in these cases to use the Red Light during Wind Down only, to stimulate natural melatonin, then use the Green Light overnight.
All little ones need to learn to manage big feelings - a Calm Corner is
a great way to give your little one the tools they need to process big
emotions in a healthy way. Green light supports focus and attention, so it’s great to use the Green Light when little ones are in their dedicated space for calming down.

As part of a healthy sleep routine, we recommend all families allow at least 20 minutes of Wind Down time before expecting their little one to fall asleep.
This is when the Red LED Light Therapy does its best work to encourage the brain to produce as much natural melatonin, the sleep hormone, as possible.
Melatonin is what triggers our cells to relax and send us off to sleep, so increasing melatonin production helps make settling to sleep easier and quicker. Melatonin also supports our natural body clock (circadian rhythms), this tells our body the best times to sleep and to be awake, reducing unnecessary night waking.
During the 20 minutes of Wind Down time, the Red LED Light should be the only source of light in the room. Parents can use this time to feed their baby, tell a story from memory or offer a gentle massage.
The Red LED Light is so gentle on the eyes that you can leave it on all night.
The Glow Sleep Easy has 3 light settings which all relate to various levels of light sensitivity.
Babies need to sleep in darkened rooms to help them learn the difference between night and day: you can’t tell the Red LED Light is on when you close your eyes.
Leaving it on all night means it’s easier to get through nighttime feeds and resettling quickly, as it’s bright enough to see by. A harsh room light will wake you and bub up completely, but the red light makes it calm.

Our households make small noises all night (leaves rustling, water pipes bubbling, grown ups rolling around in bed). Adults have learned that these noises don’t pose any risk or harm: babies haven’t learned this yet. So, their brains are more likely to trigger a wake up when they register these noises. Baby will then need a parent to come and provide comfort so they can co-regulate their emotions and settle back to sleep. Using pink noise all night provides a soundscape for your baby to help prevent their brain from becoming distracted by incidental noise. This allows the brain to relax fully and helps us achieve deeper Slow Wave (NREM) sleep. In this phase of
sleep, we do not dream, so children who are affected by nightmares need to progress through REM sleep into the NREM phase and stay there as long as possible overnight.
We recommend parents use the Pink Noise all night long, and during naps.
Pink Noise is also very soothing for babies during the witching hour (between 3pm-5pm) when newborns are setting their new body clocks and are often highly unsettled.
Induce a deep sleep with authentic Pink Noise (world first engineering design) and block out background noises.

The National Asthma Council recommends we keep our indoor humidity levels between 30-50% to promote deep, healthy breathing.
We know that because babies do best at the higher end of this range, at least 40%.
At the end of the day our bodies are tired, including the muscles we use for breathing. So, our breathing becomes more shallow - therefore we yawn when we’re tired! Using a humidifier promotes the deep breathing we need in order to relax fully and settle to sleep.
Using the humidifier on the Glow Sleep Easy will help keep the humidity in your bedroom within these healthy levels. The humidifier is designed to be used in a standard 2m x 2m bedroom: you can use it in a bigger space.
If your room is smaller, keep the door ajar so you can get the best air
circulation.
If your home is prone to dampness, use the 2-hour timer to run the humidifier just at the start of the night. The water tank should be wiped clean after each use, and always refilled with fresh water before each use. Wash the water tank, inner lid and outer lid with warm soapy water once a week.
The humidifier produces Cool Mist via a vibrating ultrasonic plate, so the Glow is extremely safe to keep in your baby’s room. The lockable lid design means that your little one will have a hard time spilling water even if they get curious about their Glow Sleep Easy.
