Give your little one that calm, cuddled feeling with our Merino Wool Dreamtime Cocoon Pods — purpose-designed to be soft on delicate skin, naturally breathable and effortlessly stylish for every Aussie season. Whether you’re heading out for a pram walk, setting up a newborn photoshoot or relaxing at home, these knitted baby cocoon wraps bring cosy comfort without the bulk.
Why choose merino for your cocoon pod?
- Temperature-regulating: Merino fibres help keep bub warm when it’s cool and breathe when it’s warm, reducing the risk of clamminess.
- Soft & itch-free: Fine merino feels gentle against newborn skin — no scratchy sensation.
- Lightweight comfort: A knitted cocoon that’s cuddly without weighing bub down.
- Naturally fresh: Wool helps resist odour and manages moisture for everyday practicality.
- Planet-friendly: Merino is a renewable, biodegradable fibre — good for bub and kinder on the earth.
The Dreamtime difference
Our Dreamtime cocoon pod is knitted with just the right amount of stretch to hug without restricting, creating a gentle “mobile embrace”. The textures and neutral-inspired colourways have been chosen to photograph beautifully and pair with your nursery aesthetic.

Where this cocoon shines
- Photoshoots: Create picture-perfect swaddled looks with minimal fuss.

How to layer by season
Autumn/Winter: Start with a cotton singlet and long-sleeve onesie. Add the merino wool cocoon pod over the top. On colder days, pop a lightweight blanket over bub in the pram (keeping face and airways clear).
Spring: Onesie + cocoon is usually enough. If it’s breezy, add socks and a beanie.
Summer: On milder days, a singlet + cocoon for brief periods can offer sun-safe coverage in filtered shade. Always monitor bub’s temperature and remove layers if they feel warm.
Fit & sizing
Designed for the newborn stage, the knit provides comfortable stretch while maintaining shape. As every baby is different, always check for a relaxed, non-restrictive fit and stop using the cocoon if bub shows signs of rolling.
Care instructions (easy, wool-safe)
- Turn inside out and hand wash cold with a gentle wool detergent.
- Do not wring. Press excess water in a towel and lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Store folded to maintain shape. Avoid hanging.
Safe use guidance
Our baby cocoon is designed for supervised awake time, photos and pram outings. Ensure bub’s face and airways remain uncovered and clear at all times. Check baby’s temperature regularly and adjust layers to avoid overheating. Follow current safe sleep advice in Australia and discontinue use for sleep or once baby shows signs of rolling.

FAQs
What age are Dreamtime Cocoon Pods best for?
They’re ideal for the newborn stage. Always check fit, supervise use and discontinue once your baby shows signs of rolling.
Is merino wool itchy?
Fine merino fibres are soft and comfortable for most babies. If your baby has very sensitive skin, try a light cotton layer underneath.
How warm is the cocoon — will my baby overheat?
Merino is naturally breathable and helps regulate temperature, but babies can still overheat in warm conditions. Monitor bub, dress appropriately for the weather and remove layers if they feel warm.
How do I wash and dry it?
Hand wash cold with wool-safe detergent. Do not wring. Press in a towel, then lay flat to dry away from heat or direct sun.
Can my baby sleep in the cocoon?
We recommend the cocoon for supervised awake time, pram outings and photos only. Follow current Australian safe sleep guidance and do not use the cocoon for unattended sleep.
