We recommend buying a new mattress for your baby rather than using a second hand one, as it is important for it to be clean, firm and showing no signs of deterioration. Remember, small babies are not good at controlling their own body temperature and can easily overheat, so always keep an eye on your baby's room temperature.
Layering Securely tucked-in layers of sheets and blankets are best to help prevent overheating and wriggling.
Cosy comfort Soft fabrics and padded bumpers help your baby snooze comfortably and safely.
Sizing up Use a suitable size of blankets and sheets to avoid the risk of becoming entangled.
