For tired parents and little ones
Gentle, rhythmic pats from one soft finger help your little one settle calmly beside you, so you can finally get your hands back.
Why it works
The tapping finger
Unlike most patting toys, Melyo pats with one gentle finger, the way you would. Rest its big soft hand on your little one’s tummy and let it keep the rhythm.
Gentle rhythm
Three soothing rhythms, chosen with the remote, so you can switch without leaning over and risking a wake-up.
Made for real life
Hidden zip, removable insert and motor, machine-washable cover. Cloud-soft 3D fleece that feels lovely and doesn’t shed.
How it works
Melyo combines two things your baby already knows: the steady rhythm of your pat and the feel of a soft, familiar hand.
Lay your baby on their back on a firm, flat surface, with you close by.
Lay Melyo beside your little one while they settle, its soft hand resting gently on them.
Choose a soothing rhythm with the remote and watch them relax, while you stay close.
Melyo doesn’t replace you. It gives you a moment to breathe while you stay close.

Melyo is made from soft, skin-friendly fleece with a gentle rhythm and no loud sounds. Use it while your baby settles and you’re nearby, and remove it before leaving them to sleep unsupervised.
No. Like all soft toys, Melyo should be removed once your baby is asleep, in line with safe sleep guidance.
Some babies love it straight away, others need a few days. Use it during your usual settling routine. If it’s still not right, our 30-night guarantee has you covered.
Yes. Remove the motor and insert, then machine-wash the cover on a gentle cycle.
