What Should be in Every Cot in Every Nursery?

(As Well as a Baby of Course)

Published: 15 April, 2008

It is simple common sense, a baby spends a great deal of time sleeping or playing in their cot, and babies nappies can very easily leak, baby can be sick, baby can dribble and even perspire.

How can mum stop all these nasties from reaching the mattress? If these fluids do reach the mattress then ask yourself how it can be cleaned safely and easily? The mattress could be water resistant or even waterproof but it still has to be cleaned if it gets dirty and you can't just put the mattress in a washing machine.

If Mum was cleaning it with a cloth then she certainly would not want to use any chemical cleaners on it, and with just hot soapy water how would she be sure that the mattress was really clean? How long would it take to dry out? and would it smell afterwards?

All these issues can be easily resolved with the new SnugNights Junior Cot Mattress Protector, simply use under the bottom sheet of mums choice and when it becomes wet or dirty just whip it off and put it in thewashing machine then tumble or line dry and put it back. Even better fit two to the cot, and when baby wakes up at night with a wet nappy, change baby and remove the top protector leaving another clean dry one underneath for the rest of the night. A mum is busy enough already without struggling trying to keep her cot mattress clean and safe.

The upper surface of the new SnugNights Junior Cot Mattress Protector is a soft absorbent cotton terry, the underside is a soft polyurethane membrane that is noiseless and unlike pvc or plastic will not make baby hot or uncomfortable. The sides are elasticated all around just like a fitted sheet to hold it securely in place

A further bonus is that the new SnugNights Junior Cot Mattress Protector is dust mite proof. Mattresses can very quickly become infested with dust mites, even in the cleanest of homes. Dust mites feed on skin particlesthat have been broken down by bacteria. This bacteria requires moisture to survive. The construction of the SnugNights Junior Cot Mattress Protector means that moisture cannot soak in to the mattress and that there is a physical barrier between any dust mites and their waste products stopping them from reaching a sleeping baby.

Babies tend to sleep with their nose and mouth close to the mattress surface and dust mites are known to be responsible for the onset of asthma and allergies in some young children, so this is another great reason to choose a SnugNights Junior Cot Mattress Protector. The UK has an estimated 3.5 million children under the age of 4, they all have to sleep somewhere and that somewhere needs protection.

The new Snugnights Junior Cot Mattress Protector range comes in 2 popular sizes (60 x 120 or 70 x 140) with other sizes being introduced subject to demand. The packaging is bright and eye-catching and point of sale material is available for stockists. This is a simple, inexpensive purchase that is relevant to all your customers and makes a great impulse purchase or addition to another sale. There is no minimum order quantity required when placing your first order.

Snugnights are based in Prenton on the Wirral and have been supplying mattress protection products in the UK for more than 15 years.
