Moonlight Slumber

All parents want the absolute best for their baby, so they prepare healthy meals and shop for safe toys. But many parents don’t realize that not all crib mattresses are created equal. In fact, most mattresses for cribs and toddler beds are made with chemical flame retardants, PVC, phthalates, and other potentially toxic materials.

You’ll be happy to know that eco-conscious baby boutiques carry mattresses for cribs free from these harmful additives, and many of these options are affordably priced. One of the leaders in natural nursery essentials is the Moonlight Slumber line of sleep products. Selecting Moonlight Slumber’s “Little Dreamer,” “Starlight,” or “Nature’s Star” mattress for baby’s crib ensures that you are purchasing one of the best baby mattresses available.

Eco-Friendly Means Baby Friendly

Moonlight Slumber’s premium mattresses for cribs, cradles, and bassinets offer:

·   non-toxic medical grade fabric,

·   side-stitched or welded seams for anti-bacterial and dust-mite protection,

·   natural, non-toxic fire barriers without chemical treatment or additives,

·   non-toxic, biodegradable foam (a lightweight alternative to innerspring mattresses), and

·   mattress construction that is free from vinyl, polyethylene, PVC, lead, and phthalates.

Get Multiple Attractive Options for the Price of One

In addition to health and safety, Moonlight Slumber offers several other premium features to ensure you get the best value when shopping for a mattress for your crib. For instance, most Moonlight Slumber crib mattresses provide a dual-firmness option, meaning they will last you through both the infant and toddler years. One side is extra-firm to create the safest sleep environment for infants, while the other side has a little added softness, making it the best choice for a toddler’s mattress.  

Another money-saving option is this all-in-one organic cotton coverlet (which is included with the purchase of some Moonlight Slumber mattresses).  This USDA-certified organic coverlet serves as a soft crib sheet and absorbent mattress pad in one. It encases the whole mattress with a zipper closure and is machine washable and dryable.

The Little Dreamer is one of the most versatile and affordable premium mattresses available. It consists of non-toxic, high-density foam made from renewable resources. The Little Dreamer’s lightweight design means changing crib sheets is a breeze. Its dual-firmness option means the best toddler mattress on the market is only a flip away. The Little Dreamer is covered in waterproof, hypoallergenic, non-toxic medical grade nylon with side-stitched seams that virtually eliminate leaks into the mattress core.

The Starlight Support foam mattress for crib use adds several more premium features. With an eye on increased safety, the outer edges of this mattress are made from ultra-firm, dense foam rails, which help keep babies in the center or the crib where it is safest. The mattress seams are welded to prevent any moisture or allergens from penetrating the inside. The Starlight is also treated with Ultra Fresh to provide complete antimicrobial protection.

The Starlight Support also comes in a 75-count pocketed innerspring mattress version, also with dual-firmness. Innerspring mattresses generally offer more continued support over the years than foam versions, while foam mattresses offer the benefit of being much lighter than the innerspring varieties.

The Starlight Support Supreme offers all the benefits of the above, plus a visco-elastic "memory foam" layer on the toddler side that conforms to your child’s body contours, offering extra support to growing bones and joints. Toddlers who enjoy that “cushy” feel would likely vote the Starlight Support Supreme their pick for best toddler mattress!

The Size is Right

After considering safety and comfort, the next question you likely have is how to select the right size of crib mattress. Moonlight Slumber makes mattresses in standard sizes tailored to fit all regular cribs, cradles, bassinets, and toddler beds:

·   Standard size for mattresses for crib and toddler beds: 27.5" x 52" x 5"

·   Standard size for bassinets: 13" X 30" X 2"

As an added incentive to consider this mattress line, all Moonlight Slumber products are made in the USA. Also, Green Pea Baby boutique offers a best price guarantee – if you find a lower price within 14 days on any mattress we carry, we will refund you the difference.

Remember, buying a safe, healthy mattress helps ensure your child will reap many years of safe, healthy sleep. Sweet dreams!
