All the green mattresses on the market were either overpriced, or full of hidden toxins obscured by "eco" marketing waffle. Hannah and I felt we were being forced to pay a premium, even though we only wanted a trustworthy product and not absolute luxury. Being in a situation to do something about it, I decided to launch a side project. To make a great non-toxic mattress with two simple constraints: 0% toxins, and a reasonable and fair price. I'm lucky to work with so many like-minded, health-conscious new parents at Babyletto.
Quickly gathering steam, we teamed up with an Oeko-Tex certified European mattress supplier. A yearlong process of testing for safety, durability, and supportive comfort followed. Our experiences not only as professionals, but also as parents and consumers were crucial in designing the final PURE by Babyletto mattress line. There are plenty of tough decisions to make when planning for your new arrival; finding the right mattress shouldn’t be one of them. Between birth and 2 years old, babies can spend as much as 50% of their life on their cot mattress; and with lots of different options out there, it’s easy to lose sight of what you need. This handy guide cuts through the waffle to help you find the right mattress, because a good night’s sleep has to start somewhere. Getting to the core of the matter All our mattresses are designed so they’re just the right size and firmness for your baby. Cotbed mattresses all come with an adjustable built-in waterproof panel for those night-time accidents;
and because we understand the importance of long-lasting value, our sprung, pocket sprung and natural mattresses can be flipped and rotated to prolong their life. The first choice you need to make, though, is selecting the right supportive core for your mattress. There are several different types on offer. AirStream™ is a material made from 50% recycled foam-free fibres; scientifically proven to stay cool. The individual mini pocket springs contour to your growing child’s shape, providing the very best support. Individually pocketed springs work independently, meaning they contour and respond to changing weights and shapes - ideal for providing ultimate, long-term support for your growing child. Providing ultimate support, this mattress is made from 100% natural materials - latex, wool and coconut coir, with a 100% organic cotton cover. Ideal for allergy sufferers or if you have asthma or eczema in the family. The springs encourage airflow and provide excellent postural support for children throughout their development;
longer-lasting than foam alone.scientifically proven to stay cool, whilst providing excellent support. Foam mattresses offer a good level of support for baby in the early years. Our mattresses offer a selection of beneficial properties, so that you can choose the one that best suits your baby’s needs. Features to keep in mind: Our anti-allergy mattresses are treated with Purotex™, a friendly probiotic, which competes with any bad bacteria to keep baby safe from allergens and germs. This is especially important if you have asthma or eczema in the family. Our temperature regulating mattresses feature state-of-the-art fabrics to provide constant heat regulation throughout the night. MACHINE WASHABLE AT 40° OR 60°C The covers of all our mattresses are machine washable. Those treated with Purotex™ may be machine washed at 40°; the Essential mattress cover can be machine washed at 60°, to kill dust mites. The lullaby trust tips for safe sleeping
Always place your baby on their back to sleep. Keep your baby smoke free during pregnancy and after birth. Try to breastfeed your baby, if you can. For the first 6 months, place your baby to sleep in a separate cot or Moses basket in the same room as you. Avoid sleeping in the same bed as your baby. Do not sleep in the same bed as your baby if you have been drinking alcohol, smoking, taking medication/ drugs which make you drowsy or if you feel unwell or tired. Never fall asleep with your baby whilst sat in an arm chair or laid on the sofa. Always use a firm, flat, waterproof mattress for baby’s bed. Do not allow loose sheets to cover your baby’s head. Keep an eye on baby’s temperature – do not let them get too hot. Always place your baby to sleep with their feet at the foot of the cot. Lastly, you may want to think about a spare cover, to protect your mattress from any accidents when your main cover is in the wash.Jpn J Infect Dis. 2007 Feb;60(1):19-22.Sherburn RE1, Webb TE, Jenkins RO.
Author information1Faculty of Health and Life Sciences, De Montfort University, The Gateway, Leicester, UK.AbstractA sensitive methodology for PCR detection of Staphylococcus aureus or Bordetella pertussis DNA within cot mattress polyurethane foam was developed. The assay's applicability was evaluated on polyurethane foam from used cot mattresses. S. aureus DNA was detected in 42% of mattresses of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) victims and 29% of comparison group (no death) mattresses tested. B. pertussis DNA was detected in 50% of SIDS mattresses and 27% of comparison group mattresses. There was no significant statistical association between SIDS cases and the presence of S. aureus or B. pertussis DNA in cot mattress polyurethane.PMID: 17314420 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] Publication TypesResearch Support, Non-U.S. Gov'tMeSH TermsBase SequenceBeds/microbiology*Bordetella pertussis/geneticsBordetella pertussis/growth & developmentBordetella pertussis/isolation & purification*HumansInfantInfant, NewbornPolymerase Chain Reaction/methods*Polyurethanes/analysis*Staphylococcus aureus/geneticsStaphylococcus aureus/growth & developmentStaphylococcus aureus/isolation & purification*Sudden Infant Death/etiologySubstancesPolyurethanespolyurethane foamGrant SupportC17893/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United KingdomFull Text SourcesNational Institute of Infectious Diseases - PDFOther Literature SourcesCOS Scholar UniverseMiscellaneousNCI CPTAC Assay Portal
