Our vision
The Soothe Helmet is where we begin.
soothelings is building a comfort ecosystem for childhood — a growing family of thoughtfully designed tools for life’s common discomforts. Everything we make will answer to the same standard the Soothe Helmet does: designed specifically for children, drug-free, and beautiful enough to leave out.
We’d rather make one thing properly
than many things quickly.
Our story
It started with a warm forehead and no good option.
Hanan Miles
Founder, soothelings
As a mom of three, I spent a lot of nights looking for a gentler way to comfort my kids through fevers, headaches, and the moments when they couldn’t regulate. I wanted something drug-free to reach for first — before the medicine cabinet.
What actually worked fairly well was a cooling cap: the even cold, gentle pressure, and light-blocking coverage all helped my children calm down and rest. But the ones I could find were made for adults, lacked secure compression, weren’t designed for comfort, and weren’t sized intentionally for children.
Over the years, I found myself hoping a brand would make a higher-quality, thoughtfully designed cooling product for children, but no one did. So I finally decided I would build it.
soothelings is the comfort ecosystem I spent years wishing for — made for the kids who need it, and the parents and guardians caring for them.

No. The Soothe Helmet is a comfort tool: a drug-free way to support a child through fever and headache moments. It sits alongside pediatric guidance, never in place of it.
About thirty minutes per cycle. That's why the 2-pack exists: one Soothe Helmet can cool in the refrigerator while the other is in use.
Children ages 2 to 12. The fit, weight, and coverage are built for a child's head, not adapted from an adult migraine cap.
No, refrigerator only. The freezer makes the gel too cold and too rigid for safe, gentle use on a child.
The Soothe Helmet is designed strictly for resting use with adult supervision. We do not recommend wearing it during unsupervised sleep.
Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. The fabric does not require machine washing. Full care instructions ship in the box and are available [in the support center].
