We have some VERY exciting news!

Our popular Good Baby Sleep Mats are now available in Sage Green - joining our Blue and Coffee Cream options.

And even better, following our recent update, all mats have completed independent flammability testing and passed BS 7177:2008+A1:2011.

Designed for children aged 12 months+, they provide the firm, flat sleeping surface and waterproof, wipe-clean cover referenced in safer sleep guidance, making them a practical choice for nurseries, childminders and early years settings.

The signed Declaration of Conformity is also available to download from the Datasheets section on the product page.

Sage Green is available now, Blue is in stock, and Coffee Cream will be back soon 💚
