Smart Play Yard Mattress Topper

Q: What are the dimensions?

A: Open: 37.5 x 26 x 1.5 inches
Folded: 26 x 12.5 x 4.5 inches
We designed it to fit tightly in all standard sized pack n plays (also play yard or playard), which cover at least 95% of the market. The non-toxic foam core will adjust to the inside walls and edges insuring a snug fit, leaving no gaps.

It will fit in standard Graco, Chicco, Nuna Sena, Boppy, Eddie Bauer, Evenflo, Baby Trend, Safety 1st, Ingenuity, Arms Reach Original, Aprica, Cosco, Combi Jazz, Nature’s Purest Comfort, Baby Trend, Bright Starts, Dream on Me, Carter´s, Jeep, Bright Starts, Evenflo Babysuite, rectangular Joovy Room, and Fisher Price play yards and pack n plays.

However, it does not fit the non-standard sized play yards like 4Moms Breeze, Maxi Cosi, Phil & Teds Travel Cot, the Nuna mini, Graco Travel Lite, Guava GoCrib, I´coo Panama, Totally Scrumptious by Heidi Klum, Safety 1st Prelude Sport, KidCO Travelpod Portable Bed, or Parentlab JourneyBee Portable Crib. If your brand is not listed, please click HERE to contact us, and we will check for you.

Don’t concern yourself with the ‘outside’ dimensions or ‘product’ dimensions often listed in owner manuals, and online under Product Details, as they include the legs, structure and play yard accessories.

Q: Why should I buy it?

A: Comfort: make your child comfortable so that he/she (and you!) will sleep. When used in a play yard, this high-density and high resiliency pack n play mattress transforms that hard-board mattress into a cozy crib.

Convenience: fold it to make packing and storing easy. Use its separate carrying strap and travel bag.

Cleanliness: remove stylish cover to wash it.

Style: turn your pack n play into a super stylish crib with our luxurious cover fabrics

Baby’s head shape: avoid ‘Plagiocephaly’: flattening of your baby´s head. Many parents don’t realize how many hours per day their baby’s head is placed against hard objects contributing to its deformation.

Q: How can it be used?

A: It can be used as a pack n play mattress topper (on top of the hard-board mattress), as a tummy time mat, a changing station, a toddler bench when folded, a quiet time mat, under a play gym, at hotels, the beach, when camping, at Grandparents´, babysitter´s house, daycare and more. SEE VIDEO

Q: Where is it made?

A: In California, USA.

Q: What is it made out of?

A: Slip cover -top: 1) High Quality Soft Cotton: in four different chic styles: 97% cotton, 3% spandex.  2) Waterproof  Soft and Silky Polyester: in beautiful Aqua style.
Slip cover -bottom: 100% polyester.
Carrying strap: 100% polyester.
Body filling: top quality 100% high-density and high resiliency, non-toxic polyurethane foam.
Made in the USA.

Q: The slip cover seems a little bit loose in the cotton version. Why?

A: Because the slip cover top is 97% cotton, we gave it a little breathing room to allow for shrinkage after washing. It will fit like a glove after the first wash. (See below for washing instructions)

Q: How do I clean it?

A: Please DO NOT wash foam in washing machine. Only wash the slip cover in the washing machine, with zippers closed, in cold, gentle cycle, with like colors. Non-chlorine bleach. Tumble dry no heat/air.

Cover- How To Remove Formula Stains From Fabric: Step 1: Run the fabric, inside out, under cold water to flush out as much of the formula as possible. Step 2: Pretreat the stain with liquid laundry detergent containing enzymes or liquid dish washer detergent, soaking for 30 minutes in cold water. Do not use hot water. If the spot is very old soak overnight. Step 3: Launder the item. Make sure the spot is gone after washing before you place in the dryer or you may set it. If the stain is not gone let the item air dry and later use a prewash stain remover. Repeat laundering if necessary.
 
Foam- If the foam gets dirty what we recommend is having a Bathtub Foam-Washing Party! Fill up the bathtub with soapy warm water, place the foam piece inside and maybe have your kids help you by stepping on it for no longer than a minute. Then drain the water and carefully squeeze the water out of the foam and air dry it (if placed in the sun, the side facing the light will turn a little yellow).
Q: Does it contain toxic chemicals?

A: Absolutely not.  It is free of all flame retardants (including polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE’s), Chlorinated Tris (TDCPP/TCEP) and brominated tris) as well as phthalates, formaldehyde, brominated or chlorinated chemicals, lead, and over 50 banned substances.  And it follows the regulations and programs of ‘restricted or banned substances’ which include EU REACH, SVHC, RoHS, TIP, cRoHS, CPSIA.

Our foam meets CertiPUR-US rigorous standards for emissions, content, performance, durability, and environmental stewardship. Take a look here: CertiPUR-US.

MamaDoo Kids is also featured in a ‘Center for Environmental Health‘ study on flame retardant free products.  You will find us on the top of the list 🙂

Q: Does it comply with the CPSC/CPSIA standards?

A: All our products conform to all rules and regulations set forth by the Consumer Products Safety Commission, and Consumer Product Safety Improvement Acts, and they are rigorously tested to ensure that all parts are free of all flame retardants, lead, bpa, and phthalate.

Q: How do I use it safely?

A: We designed to fit tightly in all standard size play yards (more than 95% of USA market). If used in a non-standard size play yard (less than 5% of USA market) there is a potential risk of entrapment and suffocation. If questions arise in assuring proper fit, please click HERE to contact us, and we will check for you.

Never leave your child unattended. Use a fitted play yard sheet and tuck it around both the hard-board mattress and our Smart Mattress Topper. Don’t place the product where your child may fall. Place it only on the floor or inside a play yard. Keep the carrying strap out of the child’s reach: it is not a toy. Little babies should always sleep on their back to reduce the risk of SIDS.
