This is unexpectedly the best thing I have bought for my son's sensory needs ever. he absolutely loves it!

If you're here, chances are you've already tried everything... 

Weighted blankets. 

White noise. 

Night lights. 

Melatonin. 

Yet your child can't seem to switch off. 

They become overwhelmed. 

And by the end of the evening... 

You're exhausted too. 

You're not looking for a miracle. 

You're simply looking for something that helps your child feel calm enough to rest. 

Because every child deserves to feel calm.

Occupational Therapist Insight
“When deep pressure input is provided firmly throughout the entire body, it has a calming and organising effect on the central nervous system.”

"We've tried everything"

The Cocoon offers a different approach, using gentle all-over compression rather than heavy weight to support calm and regulation.

"They get too hot"

Soft, lightweight stretch fabric provides comforting compression without the heaviness of a traditional weighted blanket.

"I don't want them to feel trapped"

Stretchy fabric and an open-foot design let children move freely and get in and out independently.

"I just want peaceful evenings again"

A comforting way to help them slow down, settle and find calm when it’s time to switch off.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Orunii Cocoon suitable for children with sensory sensitivities, Autism or ADHD? +

The Orunii Cocoon has been thoughtfully designed for children who enjoy or seek gentle, consistent sensory pressure.

Its soft, stretchy fabric provides an even, hug-like feeling around the body that many children find comforting when they're feeling restless, overwhelmed or finding it difficult to settle.

Every child experiences sensory input differently, so we always recommend introducing the Cocoon gradually and allowing your child to decide what feels comfortable for them.

Will my child feel trapped or restricted inside? +

The Cocoon is designed to feel supportive, not restrictive.

Its soft, highly stretchy fabric moves with your child's body, while the open-foot design gives them freedom to move and allows them to get in and out independently.

For children who enjoy gentle pressure, the aim is to create the feeling of a comforting, all-over hug — without the heaviness of a traditional weighted blanket.

Can the Cocoon help if my child struggles to settle at bedtime? +

The Cocoon is designed to become part of a calm and consistent bedtime routine.

It provides gentle, even compression around the body — a form of sensory input that some children find comforting and regulating when they're feeling restless or struggling to switch off.

Every child is different, so we don't promise that the Cocoon will transform sleep overnight. Instead, think of it as another supportive sensory tool that can help create the right environment

What's the difference between the Cocoon and a weighted blanket? +

Rather than placing weight on top of the body, the Orunii Cocoon uses stretchy fabric to provide gentle compression from around the body.

This makes it lightweight, breathable and easy to move in, while still providing the reassuring sensory input many children seek.

It's also considerably easier to pack away and take with you — making it useful for holidays, sleepovers and time away from your child's usual routine.

Will my child get too hot? +

The Cocoon is made from soft, lightweight and breathable stretch fabric, designed to provide gentle compression without the bulk and heaviness of a weighted blanket.

Its open-foot design also gives children the option of keeping their feet uncovered if they prefer.

As with any sleepwear or bedding, we'd recommend considering the room temperature and what your child is wearing underneath when deciding how to use their Cocoon.

What size should I choose? +

Choosing the right size helps the Cocoon provide its characteristic gentle compression without feeling unnecessarily tight.

Use our Size Guide above to find the best fit based on your child's height and size.

If your child is between sizes or you're unsure which to choose, please get in touch with us and we'll be happy to help.

What if my child doesn't like it at first? +

That's completely okay.

Every child's sensory preferences are different, and some children may want a little time to become familiar with the feeling of compression.

Rather than introducing the Cocoon for the first time at bedtime, you could let your child explore it during a relaxed part of the day — perhaps while reading, watching their favourite programme or having some quiet time.

There should never be pressure to use it. The aim is for the Cocoon to become something your child chooses when that gentle sensory input feels good to them.

Can the Cocoon be used outside bedtime? +

Absolutely.

Although calmer bedtimes are one of its main uses, the Cocoon can also become part of your child's wider sensory routine.

Some children may enjoy using it while reading, watching a film, relaxing after school or taking some quiet time after a busy or overstimulating day.

It's also lightweight and easy to pack, so familiar sensory support can come with you on holidays, sleepovers and other trips away from home.

How do I wash the Orunii Cocoon? +

We recommend machine washing on a cold setting with a non-bio detergent. To help prevent shrinkage and keep your Cocoon feeling its best for longer, avoid tumble drying and allow it to air dry naturally.

Is the Cocoon a medical product? +

No. The Orunii Cocoon is a sensory wellbeing product and isn't intended to diagnose, treat or cure any medical condition.

It has been developed alongside Occupational Therapy expertise and is designed to provide gentle sensory compression that can form part of a child's wider sensory or bedtime routine.

If you're unsure whether compression is appropriate for your child, we'd recommend speaking with their Occupational Therapist or another relevant healthcare professional.

My daughter loves the feeling of pressure but has never got on with weighted blankets because she gets too warm and doesn't like the heaviness. The Orunii has been completely different. It’s soft, stretchy and she can move around easily inside it. She describes it as her “big hug” and now asks for it when she wants some quiet time.

I hesitated before ordering because we’ve bought so many sensory products that ended up sitting in a cupboard. This is probably the first one my son actually goes and gets himself. He uses it on the sofa after school when he needs to decompress and often takes it to bed too. Seeing him find something that genuinely seems to help him settle has been lovely.

We’ve tried weighted blankets, sensory toys and what feels like every bedtime routine going, but my son still really struggled to switch off. He took to the Orunii Cocoon straight away. He loves the gentle pressure and seems so much more settled when he’s wearing it. Bedtimes have felt noticeably calmer for all of us.
