Start from day one (or as soon as you're able)
If the umbilical cord is still intact, begin with the face and head transitions, then sponge bathe the body. Once the cord has healed, repeat the process — this time with a swaddle bath for the body.

The first 100 days are the fastest period of brain growth your baby will ever have — over a million neural connections form every second. It’s the easiest time to build the foundation for calm and rest.

Babies learn through repetition and rhythm. The bath-to-sleep flow becomes a predictable cue their body learns to trust. This isn’t about creating a “good sleeper.” It’s about raising a child whose body knows how to rest.

Follow the Oneberrie flow: Face, Head, Body, Oneberrie dry, Massage immediately, PJs, Feed, Sleep. It’s not random — it’s built around how babies process transitions. And once it sticks, it stays.

Bath resistance can stem from a number of factors. Your baby hates bath - lead with curiosity. Ask and notice - which part does my baby hate?

Getting in the water: Some babies struggle with abrupt sensory changes. Start with a slower introduction of water. Gently washing the face followed by washing and drying their hair.

Getting out of the water: Warm water causes vasodilation bringing blood closer to the skin's surface makiing it extra sensitive to touch and feel. Change the towel - our smooth loop terry removes the pins and needles. Also the wearability makes the transition into co-regulation quick and easy.

If they hate the whole thing - it might be sleep resistance, overstimulation or overtiredness in disguise. Adjust timing, Refine transitions and upgrade textures.

Every detail counts, you just have to take the time to see if from behind their eyes.

Yes — and most parents underestimate this. What touches your baby is their sensory world along with the science of thermoregulation, vasodilation and tactile hypersensitivity.

We all know someone who can't touch cotton balls or microfibers or denim. We all know someone who hates how certain fabrics feel on their skin - even avoiding bath themselves because of tactile hypersensitivity.

Imagine that someone is your baby who can only tell you by crying. This isn’t fluff — it’s functional sensory design. And it's neurodivergent friendly.

That’s true—if you’re using soaps and scrubbing like you would for yourself. That recommendation exists to protect delicate skin, not because bath itself is harmful.

But when bath isn’t about cleaning—it’s about calm—it becomes one of the safest, most effective tools for rest. Bath for sleep uses only warm water, gentle touch, and consistency to support both skin and nervous system regulation.

Babies are full humans. They can’t be forced to sleep, but they can learn to recognize safety and readiness through repetition and sensory cues. That’s what real sleep foundations are built on.

It supports more than sleep. The Oneberrie method helps babies regulate their nervous system, build trust through touch, and learn the rhythm of lifelong rest. Even our prints are designed to support early eye development and visual recognition.

This isn’t just a towel — it’s the conduit to better sleep, and predictable evenings.
It’s holistic development, disguised as a bedtime routine. It's a mindset,
Made for all of childhood because Good Habits - Make Good Humans

Babies are born biologically able to sleep, but how they learn what safe rest feels like to fall asleep — that's nurtured.

Bath is your most powerful physiological tool for sleep. Their brains crave rhythm and predictability, and the Oneberrie method gives you both. Start early, build the pattern, and sleep won’t be a fight later.

And if you bathe yourself daily but don’t extend the same grace to your baby because “they aren’t dirty,” your ego is getting in the way of the holistic future version of your child: the one filled with potential, ease, and wellness.
