Newborns can sleep for up to 18 hours a day, and this time asleep is hugely important for their development. Among other things, sleep allows them to mentally process new experiences, gives their immune system time to strengthen, and supports their mental & physical development.
Here are three key reasons you should buy an organic cot mattress for your baby.
Breathable & Temperature Regulating
As babies cannot regulate their body temperature effectively, natural materials like organic wool naturally wick away heat and moisture and help maintain a comfortable sleeping temperature, reducing the chances of overheating. In contrast, synthetic foam mattresses tend to trap heat and moisture, potentially causing discomfort.
Chemical Free
Conventional mattresses often contain synthetic materials and chemical fire retardants that can off-gas volatile organic compounds (VOCs), potentially exposing your baby to harmful substances. The materials inside our mattresses are natural and organic, without chemicals or other nasties, meaning no off-gassing and a healthier sleep space for your little one.
Hypoallergenic
Natural fibres are inherently hypoallergenic, making them suitable for babies with sensitive skin or allergies. Additionally, we treat our mattress covers with a OEKO-TEX approved geraniol-based treatment, creating an environment that's hostile to bed bugs and dust mites while being gentle on delicate skin. Another reason to sleep soundly!
By investing in an organic baby mattress, you're providing a safer, more comfortable, and environmentally responsible sleeping environment for your child.
