Why this exists
Day sleep fails for physical reasons: daylight at your eyes and a wide-awake world at your ears. You can't renovate your way out of that, and you can't out-discipline it.
DaySomnia is the wearable version of the fix. Molded blackout cups that block the daylight, with room to blink. Thin speakers you slide to sit right over your ears, playing whatever you already fall asleep to.
From the night-shift community
They're describing the problem, not our product — in their own words.
"I wasn't just tired… I was missing my life in pieces."
— night-shift nurse, TikTok (viral post)
"I've tried blackout curtains, white noise, melatonin, you name it… somehow, I still wake up exhausted."
— night nurse, in a letter to an advice column
"I'm a nurse. I know what sleep deprivation does to the body. And I can't fix my own."
— nurse, AllNurses forum
One object, made for one job.
For the bedroom at 9am with the sun through the blinds: concave cups sit over your eyes with room to blink — nothing presses on your lids — and the contour blocks the daylight, including the nose-bridge gap where flat masks leak.
For the household that's awake around you: thin discs on soft cords inside the band. You slide them to sit right over your ears — however you sleep.
For the end of a twelve, when setup is one thing too many: Bluetooth to your phone. No app, no account, no subscription. It plays whatever you already fall asleep to — controls on the band, phone on the nightstand.

How it compares
"I need both — the blackout AND the audio. Nothing combines them without a tradeoff."
— a nurse on AllNurses. That's the whole reason this exists.
$99 · 90-NIGHT SHIFT-SLEEP TRIAL
Ninety nights, starting the day the box arrives — a full season of shifts. Long enough to test it through rotations, rough stretches and schedule flips, and actually know.
If you're not happy with it, for any reason, we refund every dollar. No questions asked, and no need to send it back.
The headband stays with you either way, and asking is one email.
The Night-Shift Sleep Recovery Guide comes with it, free — emailed with your order. Written for daylight sleepers; it skips the chamomile-tea advice.
This probably isn't for you if…
- You sleep fine. If you can already fall asleep at 9am with the sun up and a mower going next door, you don't need this.
- You want a cure. DaySomnia doesn't fix your schedule. It's a blackout band with speakers: it blocks the light and covers the noise. That's the whole job.
- You won't wear it. It only works the nights it's on your head.
- You're a stomach sleeper who can't stand anything on your face. The contoured cups leave room to blink, but it's still a band on your head — and that's exactly what the 90 nights are for.
