When you're up in the middle of the night feeding your baby, the last thing you want is the main room light disturbing the whole house and hurting you and your little one's eyes - that's why a gentle light projector for babies or one of the best breastfeeding light for your home can be a good purchase.

Not only will it create a relaxing environment for your baby to feed in, similar to a sensory light, reducing stimulation and helping to promote sleep, but it'll also help you find your way in the dark room, preventing you from stubbing a toe or knocking something over.

Best breastfeeding lights at a glance:

You might be wondering why you need a night light if you already have a lamp in your room. Lamps often only have just one light setting, and it can still make a room incredibly bright. Most breastfeeding night lights have either an adjustable dimmer or feature a soft light. They can often be controlled with either touch or via a mobile app. This makes the nighttime feeds a little bit easier than trying to reach for a button or trying to navigate in the dark. Night lights are also useful for those nighttime nappy changes or simply just to check on your baby without waking them up. Most can grow with your child, too and be helpful to use as a toilet light as they get older.

And, with Amazon Prime Day deals here, you'll be able to shop for the best breastfeeding night lights!

Best child-friendly breastfeeding light

Not only does this light make the perfect addition to any nursery, but the touch top to turn the light on and off makes it incredibly easy and convenient to use. This Wenscha night light can also double up as a nightlight as your baby gets older.

One review said: "My mum originally bought one of these for my son a year ago, and recently my partner said he wanted one for beside his bed - it's dimmable, cable-free and the battery lasts a long time. It's also taken several knocks and been launched across the room several times when my son was younger and it still works perfectly so we got the second one. Perfect for bedtime reading and it will certainly take those tired moments in the morning when you go to whack the snooze on your alarm and accidentally send everything flying"

One review said: "Our three-year-old daughter absolutely loves this night light. We've tried other night lights for our son but nothing quite compares to this one, so he now has one too. It's durable, with a soft and flexible material so they can't crack it or anything. They love the little portable egg that they can carry with them if they need the toilet at night etc. It's easy to dim the light and it's a very soft glow."

Best flip to turn off and on breastfeeding light

cotabaty baby night light
Price: $27.99 (was £34.99)

Ideal for needing a bit of light when breastfeeding and not wanting to disturb your partner more than they need to be, or wake yourself and baby up anymore than you need to be! This night light by Cotababy is dimmable, made of soft silicone and has a range of light options from cold white to warm white, so you can choose which works best for you.

The most useful feature is that you simply have to flip it and the light turns on or off, so it's easy to grab in the dark without any fiddly buttons to find, and will slowly dim when you flip it again. It's rechargeable and portable, so you can carry it with you to baby's room when they move out of your bedroom, or downstairs to help guide your way when preparing bottles.

Pros

  • No fiddly buttons to operate, simply flip or push the silicone body for stepless dimming
  • Portable and rechargeable, with up to 100 hours use on the dimmest setting

Cons

  • Only up to 4 hours battery life on the brightest setting, but should still be enough to get you through the night

How to choose a breastfeeding light

It can feel overwhelming choosing a breastfeeding light with so many options out there, so here are a few things to consider before you make your decision.

Colour: While some lights come in just one colour (usually a cool white light), others will have the option of a variety of colours to choose from, which you may prefer.

Power source: A lot of lights are now USB rechargeable while others require batteries which can end up as a pricier choice as it means you'll have to ensure you have a stash of batteries available. Alternative options need to be plugged into the wall and will need to be close to a plug, limiting where you can place it in your baby's nursery.

Touch sensor: We're big fans of breastfeeding lights that can be activated just by touching them with a finger, as this saves you from fiddling with the switch and possibly making noise.

Timer: Having a built-in timer in your night light means that you can arrange for it to shut off after a certain amount of time, something that will be especially helpful if your child continues to use the light when they're a toddler.

Do babies need light to breastfeed?

Right from birth, a lot of babies use their natural instincts to find their mother's nipple to latch on for breastfeeding, but others can struggle, and it's a skill you learn together. While light won't be necessary for every infant, it can prove helpful for guiding your nipple into their mouth.

Where is the best place to have a night light?

It's worth having the night light as close to where you store your baby's nappies and wipes as possible or within reach of your nursing chair. This way, you have a little bit of light in the room for feeding and checking on your baby, but it will also be easier for getting a nappy rather than rummaging around.

What colour light is best?

While cool white lights are bright and will light up the room more, during the night, you might want to opt for a warmer light. This way, the light will be softer to your eyes when you're nursing in the night.
