The First Years deceptively simple Close & Secure Sleeper allows you to feed, soothe, monitor, and bond with baby in the comfort of your own bed. Meant to be used from birth until baby rolls over or pushes up on their own, the sleeper is anchored to your bed by a large flap that tucks under your mattress. The patented Airflow design of the hollow frame and breathable mesh fabric keep air circulating and baby cool.
A durable, cloth-covered U-shaped “wall” surrounds baby’s head and torso to limit their movement and help prevent parents from rolling onto them. The soft head barrier reduces the risk of entrapment, while the foot wedge–which can be used as a sleep positioner in future months–ensures baby stays snugly inside the sleep area. The supportive bottom is a cozy resting spot with the included soft cover, vinyl covered mattress, and removable, machine washable mattress sheet.
Reassurance and safety weren’t the only things The First Years folks thought of when creating this sleeper. Other benefits include its portability, a nightlight, and transitional use. For travel convenience, the Close & Secure folds up easily, is lightweight, and sports a carrying handle. Once baby has outgrown it, this feature means that it can also be compactly stored until needed again. A built-in nightlight allows you to quietly check on your bundle of joy during the night and provides enough illumination for feedings without waking your partner. When you are ready to transition baby to the crib, this sleeper can go with them–simply place it in the crib until baby is used to their new setting.
Two AA batteries are required for the nightlight.

Let me tell ya…before I had my baby, I SWORE I wouldn’t become “one of those parents” who sleep with their baby. And when we finally got to bring him home from the hospital, what did I do? Slept with him on my chest. I couldn’t help it, I just wanted him close to me, and he wanted to be close to me.
I don’t have him sleep with us too often these days, mostly out of concern for safety. I do let him snuggle in our bed when he wakes up in the early mornings around 4 or 5ish.
The co-sleeper gives you piece of mind when you co-sleep with your baby in those early days of parenthood when you bring your newly born baby home. And this is a fabulous deal. Plus…the product is highly rated by people who have used the The First Years Close and Secure Co-sleeper.
