How to dress baby according to the temperature

Comment habiller bébé selon la température TrioNest™

Babies cannot regulate their temperature like adults. If they're too bundled, they risk overheating. If they're not bundled enough, they can get cold. TrioNest™ gives you all the keys to dress your baby correctly according to the season and temperature.

🌡️ The golden rule: one more layer than you

The basic principle is simple: dress your baby with one more layer of clothing than you. If it's 20°C and you're wearing a t-shirt, your baby will need a t-shirt + a light jacket.

🌞 In summer (over 24°C)

  • Short-sleeved bodysuit or light sleepsuit
  • No hat except after bathing
  • Anti-UV hat for outdoor excursions
  • Sunscreen from 6 months (before that, avoid direct exposure)
  • Be careful of overheating in the stroller or car seat

🍂 In spring and autumn (15-23°C)

  • Long-sleeved bodysuit + trousers
  • Cardigan or light jacket
  • Socks
  • Hat if windy or cool

❄️ In winter (under 10°C)

  • Thermal long-sleeved bodysuit
  • Warm pajamas or fleece jumpsuit
  • Coat or outdoor romper
  • Hat, mittens, thick socks
  • Sleeping bag TOG 2.5 or 3.5 for the night

🛏️ At night: sleeping bag rather than duvet

The sleeping bag is an essential accessory for the night. It replaces the duvet (dangerous before 2 years old) and keeps baby at the right temperature all night long.

  • TOG 0.5: summer, over 24°C in the room
  • TOG 1: spring/autumn, 20-24°C
  • TOG 2.5: winter, 16-20°C
  • TOG 3.5: very cold, under 16°C

⚠️ Signs that baby is too hot or too cold

  • Too hot: sweaty nape, red cheeks, agitation, rapid breathing
  • Too cold: cold hands and feet, pale lips, crying
  • Tip: touch the baby's nape — it's the best indicator of their body temperature
