The Mini Giraffe is the soft taupe spotted comforter from our musical range, shrunk down and stripped back — no music box, no electronics, no timer. Just something small and familiar for little hands to hold.
It is sized for the places a full comforter is awkward: the car seat, the daycare bag, the stroller, a waiting room, a long flight. Small enough that one lives permanently in the diaper bag, and inexpensive enough that losing one is an inconvenience rather than a crisis. A velcro strap at the base holds a pacifier or clips it to the stroller.
Why parents buy a mini
🎒 Fits a diaper bag, a glove box or a daycare pocket
🤫 No electronics, no lights, no sound — nothing to stimulate at the wrong moment
🔗 Velcro strap for a pacifier or the stroller
🧼 Machine washable
🛡️ 12-month warranty
📍 Designed in Western Australia
When can my little one sleep with it?
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends keeping soft objects out of the crib until 12 months, and that is our recommendation too. Before then the mini is made for supervised play, the stroller, the changing table and your arms.
Eyes and features are embroidered rather than attached, so there is nothing to work loose. With no sound unit inside, the whole thing goes straight into the wash.
Materials
Made from 100% polyester — the same ultra-soft plush as our full-size comforters, so the mini feels like the one they already know.
Specificatins
Compact mini size — noticeably smaller than our 36 x 36 cm musical comforters.
No electronics, no sound, no lights.
A velcro strap at the base holds a dummy, or attaches the mini to a pram or nappy bag.
Care Instructions
Machine washable — and with no music box to remove first, it goes straight in. A gentle tumble dry fluffs it back up again.

I got one for my 4 year old who has separation anxiety and normally goes to sleep watching a movie on the iPad she no longer uses the iPad for bed time and no longer wakes me up having nightmares as she just plays the noise and goes back to sleep without any help
Waiting to give the Dino to my new nephew.
My son loves his Ellie elephant. Since he’s got it, we have had a much easier time getting him to sleep. Switching between the two sounds calms him and helps him sleep through the night. He loves holding onto the tail or the trunk and snuggles into his Ellie.
This has been hands down the best purchase I have made as a new mum, and do not leave the house without it!
Dash has become part of our family since we got it 😂 my daughter will already reach for it when we are going out and she always has it close to her. The lullaby is nice and soothing for her and I love it’s got the timer on it 🤎
My little one loves Shay the Giraffe. Such beautiful beige giraffe colours and love all the different uses this product has as a comforter! Definitely a piece that grows with Bub!
Billy has brought such comfort and joy to Oliver. It helps him unwind just before bed with soothing sounds. Such a beautiful addition to our bed time routine.
My little one absolutely loves his Shay the Giraffe! He cuddles it when he is trying to get to sleep and loves playing with it when he wakes up! The buttons are easy for him to turn on himself so we always walk in to him listening to the lullaby!
We got the Aria & Shay Sleep Bundle for Kade and Amalie — they absolutely love them. The soft loveys and soothing music have made bedtime so much easier. They help with sleep every night, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!
My little girl absolutely loves her Lylah! Perfect little snuggly best friend for both day and night! She is obsessed with her little moo cow we will definitely be buying another! 🐮
We absolutely LOVE, love by emi. The music is so calming and the white noise is enough to put anyone to sleep. It’s just not a comforter but also a best friend they can take everywhere.
Presley has struggled to sleep through for a while now, since we’ve gotten him Billy the French bulldog he’s found so much love in his little friend! He has definitely slept a few hours longer through the night than he ever has! He absolutely adores Billy and we cannot thank love by emi enough for helping little Presley! And ofcourse myself! Definitely recommend!!!
Love Presley and Jade xx
My daughter’s bestie is her “Uni”. Someone gifted it to us at my baby shower and it became her favorite thing very quickly. Once we moved her from the bassinet to her crib in her room, we would use “Uni” for nap time and bedtime and then put her near her crib with the music or white noise on. Eventually (after too many dropsies) the sound stopped working but “Uni” continued to be loved even more as our daughter grew. She was her first stuffie that we allowed her to sleep with in her crib once she got big enough. It became an endless attachment where she needed “Uni” At meals, playtime, naps and bedtime (so… with her 24/7 so bathtime for “Uni” became difficult for Mama lol). We lost “Uni” one day about a month or two ago on a walk. I never thought as a mom I would cry for a stuffed animal but I cried along with my daughter on our way home that day. I immediately emailed this amazing company to see if they could rush one out to me. My daughter only had to be without her bestie “Uni” for one or two nights thanks to them! And even better, two sweet girls found the original and now she has two! We love her love for Uni and can’t rave about this amazing product/toy/bestie enough :)
Billy is absolutely amazing so soft and snuggly. Only down side was the shipping but the customer service recieved from the team was beyond amazing, even sending a new to when shipping did turn up. 1000% recommend!!! We will be adding to our collection.
My daughter loves Ellie the Elephant so much that she brings it everywhere and feeds it whatever she eats too! Ellie's trunk was a good teether when she had itchy gums - bonus!
