#1  Baby Registry Must Have Items is a Breathe-Through Crib Mattress

The SafeSleep® Breathe-Through Crib Mattress is unlike any other crib mattress on the market today. There is no fiber fill or core material in a  SafeSleep® crib mattress.  Instead, there is an open celled topper that makes it completely breathe-through.  It is the only crib mattress that tests 100% oxygen rich air when a baby is breathing through it.

SafeSleep® Breathe-Through crib mattress features a hollow base with openings in the sides that allow constant airflow. The surface is a 3D open weave fabric where oxygen-rich air goes in and harmful exhaled air (carbon dioxide) goes out and away from a sleeping baby.

Scientifically tested and recognized as the safest crib mattress, SafeSleep® has the highest airflow rate compared to any other mattress or topper on the market.  

My son sleeps on his tummy so this product was a lifesaver! I have peace of mind every time my son sleeps knowing he is safe.

And did I mention, it is completely machine washable.  There is no core to wash, so no messy bathtub or shower is required.  Additionally, it doesn’t use sheets either.  

Be sure to add the SafeSleep Breathe-Through Crib Mattress to your baby registry must haves list.  You will be glad you did!
