Pajamas Offer Child Excema Sufferers Nightime Relief

New York, New York - November 16, 2010 - Today, New Jammies, announces some much needed nighttime relief for the 20-percent of infants and young children in this country that suffer from eczema. Recognizing that 90% of all cases of eczema start before a child turns five years-old, the pajama maker known for it’s ‘pajamas with a purpose’ philosophy has just introduced a special mitted collection that are specifically designed to help children sleep more soundly when suffering from excessive itching and scratching during the night.

New Jammies Introduces Certified-Organic Mitted Pajamas for the 15-Million Children in the U.S. Diagnosed with the Disease Before the Age of 5

Children with eczema have the overwhelming need to scratch the itch in their sleep. Reports show that sleep disturbance affects up to 60% of these children which increases to 83% during a flare-up.

After speaking with parents of children who suffer from eczema, they expressed the difficulty they had in finding mitted pajamas above infant sizes. Some moms even wind up sewing the sleeves shut on regular pajamas to create “mitts”. Growing up with sensitive skin and a multitude of allergies and now seeing friends worry over their own children’s ailments, it made me happy to know I could provide a solution and make bedtime the special and enjoyable experience it is meant to be,” said New Jammies Founder Nicole Johnson.”

Introduced in 2007, New Jammies brought a new concept to the children’s nightwear industry by changing the rules at bedtime. Instead of seeing bedtime as a challenging time, New Jammies has grown its business by recognizing bedtime instead as an educational opportunity for parents and caregivers. From fruit and vegetable patterns that came with storybooks to teach kids about the importance of eating healthy foods to sports patterns that taught children to recognize exercise, the company’s new patterns leave children dreaming of all the natural, fun things the next day will bring.

The Mitted ‘Wheels on My Bike’ and ‘Wild Stallions’ collections feature fun, bold, and colorful prints that inspire children to want to learn to bicycle or be an equestrian rider
The jammies come in snuggly two-piece long john sets (sizes 2T, 3T, and 4T) that are decorated in whimsical activity prints, bicycles, and horses, saddles, and horseshoes.

Additionally the company has created these two patterns along with ‘Be Bop Ballerinas’ dancers and a ‘limited edition’ special Ever-Green Peace holiday collection for the season in footie and two-piece long john sets, that range in sizes from newborn to a children’s size 6.

The holiday print is filled with green pine trees, symbols of peace and snowflakes to celebrate and the winter season.
