About the SnuggleUp Infant Positioning Aid
Promotes Proper Positioning
The SnuggleUp is designed to support appropriate physiological positioning for infants. It helps maintain the flexed, midline positioning that is crucial for neuromuscular development and mimics the fetal position, promoting comfort and security.
Supports Developmental Care
The SnuggleUp has a padded foot roll and soft adjustable straps, which allow movement while gently maintaining age-appropriate positioning and flexion. It promotes prone, side-lying, and supine positioning for infant well-being and stress reduction. Once the infant is settled in, they can maintain a comfortable position, even when moved.
Easy to Use and Clean
The SnuggleUp is easy for clinicians to use and adjust according to each infant’s needs. Cloth-style SnuggleUps are made from a soft, washable cotton/polyester interlock knit that can be washed and reused without the risk of infection. Disposable SnuggleUps are useful for admissions, procedures, transport, or when laundry facilities are not available. They are available with or without hook and loop closures on the adjustable wraps to keep arms and legs properly positioned and/or out of the way during admission or procedures.
Adaptable to Various Medical Needs
The SnuggleUp’s flexibility makes it easier for infants with various medical needs, including those with IV lines, feeding tubes, or other medical devices. Its design ensures that medical care can be effectively administered without compromising comfort. Combining the SnuggleUp Infant Positioning Aid with the Gel Pillows and Better Bendy Bumper created a complete positioning aid solution.
