SwaddleMe By Your Side Sleeper
We designed the SwaddleMe By Your Side Sleeper so you can keep your newborn close while maintaining a safe, separate sleep space. This bedside sleeper features breathable mesh walls on all four sides, giving you a clear view of baby throughout the night.
The lightweight frame fits securely next to your bed, and the adjustable base height ensures the sleeping surface aligns perfectly with your mattress. Our By Your Side Sleeper includes a waterproof mattress pad and fitted sheet, plus a storage pocket for nighttime essentials like pacifiers and wipes.
Built for portability, this sleeper folds flat in seconds and weighs just 12 pounds, making it easy to move from room to room or pack for overnight trips. The sturdy steel frame supports infants up to 20 pounds or until baby can push up on hands and knees.
What makes the By Your Side Sleeper special
Mesh construction & safety features
We use premium breathable mesh on all four walls of the swaddleme by your side sleeper to promote continuous airflow around your baby. The taut mesh construction prevents sagging and maintains structural integrity even after repeated washing.
The powder-coated steel frame creates a stable foundation that won’t wobble or shift during the night. Rubberized feet grip securely to hardwood, carpet, or tile floors without scratching. Our sleeper meets all current CPSC safety standards for bedside infant sleepers, including stability testing and mattress firmness requirements.
Height adjustment & bedside compatibility
Seven adjustable height settings
The base of the By Your Side Sleeper adjusts through seven distinct height positions, accommodating mattress heights from 18 to 30 inches. Simply press the release buttons on both sides of the frame and slide the sleeping platform to your desired level.
We engineered the adjustment mechanism to lock firmly in place with an audible click at each position. The side wall that faces your bed drops down slightly, creating easy access to reach baby without fully sitting up. This design mirrors the same thoughtful engineering you’ll find throughout our full collection of sleepers and bedside sleep solutions.
Portability & storage design
At just 12 pounds fully assembled, the SwaddleMe By Your Side Sleeper moves effortlessly from your bedroom to the nursery, living room, or anywhere you need baby nearby. The quick-fold mechanism collapses the entire unit flat in under 15 seconds without removing the mattress pad or sheet.
When folded, the sleeper measures only 5 inches thick and fits easily in a closet, under a bed, or in the trunk of most vehicles. We include a zippered carrying bag with handles for travel and storage. The lightweight design makes this sleeper ideal for families who split time between two homes or frequently visit relatives.

Your questions about the By Your Side Sleeper
The By Your Side Sleeper safely supports infants up to 20 pounds or until baby can push up on hands and knees, whichever comes first. Most families use this sleeper for the first 4-6 months.
Once your baby begins to roll over or show signs of pushing up, we recommend transitioning to a crib or our <a href="/sleepers/swaddleme-bassinet/">SwaddleMe bassinet</a> with higher sides. Always follow the weight and developmental guidelines in your instruction manual.
The fitted sheet and waterproof mattress pad both remove completely for machine washing in cold water. Tumble dry the sheet on low heat and air dry the mattress pad to preserve the waterproof layer.
The mesh walls wipe down easily with a damp cloth and gentle soap for routine cleaning. For deep cleaning, detach the fabric components from the steel frame and machine wash them separately in cold water, then allow all pieces to air dry before reassembling.
The swaddleme by your side sleeper includes optional attachment straps that secure to most bed frames for added stability. The sleeper's wide base and low center of gravity provide excellent stability even without straps.
