Still, the Hatchy Baby is so much more than a white noise machine. However, we personally prefer the real fan sound of the Dohm. Compared to our go-to, the Marpac Dohm Classic, the Hatch provides a wide variety of sounds. The Hatch Rest is basically in its own category. Considering that you might at some point invest in a separate night light or time-to-rise, we think this is a fair price. Price: More expensive than mostĪt about $60, the Hatch Rest is certainly more expensive than other sound machines on the market, but with all of the other functions it packs, this should not come as a surprise. We should have owned this sound machine from the beginning of our parenting since it grows through every stage of a child’s sleep phase. We figured out quickly that we should have owned this sound machine from the beginning of our parenting since it grows through every stage of a child’s sleep phase the night light would have come in very handy during those late-night diaper changing sessions during the newborn stage, the sound and light combo is perfect for creating sleep habits, and the time-to-rise feature is going to be essential for the late toddler stage.

The speaker on this baby can get super loud! My kids sleep in a New York City apartment bedroom, so most sound machines are sufficient, but this one’s volume range is far superior to even our favorite, the Marpac Dohm. The looping did not seem to bother either of my kids, but it did bother me when I caught it happening.

And after a few nights of figuring out the right settings for us, my kids were in sleep mode pretty quickly.
