As a new parent, we know just how quickly your life can become chaotic. The last thing on your mind between late night feedings and changing nappies might be your baby’s mattress, but this is key to your baby’s development. As newborns can spend as much as 18 hours of each day sleeping, that mattress is going to see a lot of use, and a lot of mess!
However, we know trying to navigate your way through the world of baby products can be intimidating and daunting, especially when you’re confronted with terms you may never have come across before. So, we’re here to break down the ins and outs of our mattresses range, to help ease your mind and make clear exactly what you need for your little one.
A good mattress must be comfortable, easy to maintain, but above all, safe! So let’s look at each of the three Clair de Lune mattresses, made in Great Britain, to get some ideas of the best choice for you and your newborn when purchasing a Moses basket or Bedside crib.
Fibre Mattresses
- Hypo-allergenic fibres
- A durable, breathable mattress to regulate temperature
- Water-resistant cover that is removable & washable
- Sustainable choice, made from recycled polyester
Our Fibre Mattresses are a great affordable starting point for any parent. They're firm and supportive, allowing your baby to rest comfortably the minute you lay their head down. A huge amount of a baby’s physical growth and development takes place while they are asleep, so it is important that they're supported safely and correctly.
But it’s not just your baby that the Fibre Mattress supports! Like all of our range of mattresses at Clair De Lune, we’ve designed an easily removable water resistant cover that can be washed easily, helping you take care of the spills and mess that newborns seem to bring with them everywhere! Small spills can be simply wiped away from the cover, saving you both money and time.
The inner padding is central to how your baby’s mattress functions. Our Fibre Mattresses have a pad that is crafted from high-density polyester fibres, which provide superb comfort, but also helps to dissipate heat as your child sleeps, meaning they can stay comfortable through the night no matter the weather. Making sure your child’s temperature is constant and regulated is a key way to ensure a peaceful and restful sleep.
We are also aware of our planet, and the need to create sustainable products that can ensure your child is growing up toward a brighter future. Our Fibre Mattresses are crafted to be sustainable, as at least 2/3 of the fibres used to create them are from a recycled source. Add to that the fact that our polyester fibres are hypo-allergenic, greatly reducing the chance of your baby suffering an allergic reaction, and you have a win for the planet, you and your child!
