Who We Are

We are Aroha, Hamish and our helpers Jack (3), Maia (1) and David the Dachshund (6.5 human years). We are a 100% family owned and founded Kiwi business who, through our own struggles with sleep, saw an opportunity to help people sleep better. 

How It Started


Hamish has always had trouble sleeping. For 10 years he researched and tried all manner of solutions but most had no impact. This all changed when Aroha gave him a Weighted Blanket in 2018. "Once I started sleeping better I quickly realised how sleep is the foundation of everything." The concept of Somni followed soon after. "Somni is less about sleep, it is more about the incredible power that comes after a good night's sleep. Power and courage to be your best self. We have seen this first hand and this is what we want other people to feel.'
