Settle
Lilac means wind down. Quiet time, stories, and calm. Bed is coming.
Kip shows your child, in colour, when it's time to sleep and when it's okay to get up. No touchscreens, no blue light overnight, no negotiating. Just a calmer night for the whole house.
Sound familiar?
If your evenings end in the same standoff and your mornings start far too early, don’t worry, it's not you. Small children genuinely can't tell the time. They just need a clearer signal.
They're up, you're up, and it's still dark. Every day.
One more story, one more drink, one more reason not to settle.
A glowing tablet in their room only makes it worse.
How it works
Kip glows a different colour for each part of the night, so your child always knows where they are in the routine without a word from you. The light fades gently between phases, keeping each transition soft and familiar.

Lilac means wind down. Quiet time, stories, and calm. Bed is coming.

Orange says stay in bed, close your eyes, and drift off.

Yellow means morning's close. Rest quietly a little longer.

Blue means good morning. It's okay to get up now.
Up and running in minutes
Tell Kip when sleep starts and when morning begins. Setup takes two minutes, and you only have to do it once.
Next to the bed, or on a shelf they can see but can't reach. That's the whole install.
Kip handles the "is it morning yet?" question, so you don't have to.
Why parents pick Zeepy
A warm amber glow that won't interfere with sleep, unlike a phone or tablet.
The yellow "wait just a little longer" light gives you back those precious extra minutes.
A gentle colour cue in the room, not a tablet that tempts them into staying up.
Lockable so little hands can't undo your settings mid-night.
From baby night light to toddler trainer to big kids' alarm. One clock, three stages.
The Zeepy app has stories, meditations, and sleep sounds for each phase, to play alongside the clock.
Most sleep clocks use blue light. The science says that's the wrong choice. Blue light suppresses melatonin, the hormone that tells your child's body it's time to sleep. It's great in the morning. It's actively unhelpful at night.
Warm amber glow
Science says:
"Amber and warm light wavelengths have minimal impact on melatonin - supporting the body's natural sleep onset."
Blue light display
The research shows:
"Blue light exposure in the evening can delay melatonin onset by up to 90 minutes, shifting the body's sleep window."

More than a clock
Use your Kip clock alongside the Zeepy app, and every phase comes with something to listen to - original bedtime stories, calming meditations and sleep sounds, all built around the four colours on the clock.

Expert-backed
Zeepy wasn't dreamed up in a boardroom. We built it with the people who help families sleep, and process big feelings, for a living.

Advised on the four-phase routine and the wake-window timing behind each colour.

Guided the emotional side — how the feelings children bring to bedtime shape the stories and product.
The people behind it
Zeepy started with our own chaotic bedtimes. We built the thing we wished we'd had — with a teacher who knows children inside out.

Built Zeepy after one too many 5 am starts with his own kids.

Twenty years designing children's products, now on a mission to fix bedtime.

Brings 15 years of classroom and child-development experience to every story and phase.
The detail
How we compare
Give Kip a month of bedtimes. If your nights aren't steadier, send it back within 30 days for a full refund. No forms, no fuss. That's how sure we are.
And you're covered well beyond that: register your clock for a free 2-year warranty, up from the standard 30 days.
Zeepy is made by Rob Law MBE (the dad who invented Trunki) and a small team of parents who've spent years getting children's products right.
Before you ask
It works best from around two to six — the ages when children can follow a colour but can't yet read a clock. Younger babies get a warm night light; older kids get a gentle alarm.
No. The night light is a warm amber on purpose, so it comforts without the blue-white glow that keeps little brains awake.
No. It charges over USB-C in about three hours and runs off its battery, though it works happily while plugged in too.
There's an optional gentle morning tone you can switch on or off. It's off by default — most families just use the wake colour.
Four phases instead of two, a warm amber night light instead of blue, USB-C charging, a child-lock, and there's a free companion app with stories and sleep sounds.
Not at all. The clock does its job entirely on its own. The free app just adds stories, meditations and sounds if you want them.
