Your Baby and Wool

January 16, 2019 2 min read

Our grandparents knew it, and their grandparents before them. Wool is a timeless option for bedding. Soft, supple, and naturally clean, it’s the ideal choice for cozy comfort and well-being. That’s especially important when it comes to your little ones. With our natural and organic wool choices, combined with our organic cotton fabrics, you can create the perfect environment for baby, from nap time to tummy time.

Our wool is never treated with chemicals of any kind. Not at the farm, not at the mill, not in production. Wool is naturally hypoallergenic, dust-mite resistant, anti-microbial and anti-bacterial, and inherently fire resistant. No need to improve on nature’s perfect balance. This makes wool a wonderful alternative for parents looking to make their nursery a haven. Bedding made from materials that lack wool’s basic properties must be treated with artificial flame retardants to meet safety standards. By choosing wool, you eliminate the worry of exposure to potentially harmful elements. Our wool in its untreated state retains the natural softness and resilience every new baby can enjoy.

More breathable than down, wool naturally regulates body temperature, wicking moisture away from the body. It’ll keep baby cool when it’s warm and warm when it’s cool. Unlike down, wool batting is created as one complete unit. This means it stays put when tufted into our comforters and mattress toppers. Soft comfort throughout with no bare spots. Studies have shown that sleeping on a natural surface like wool results in a lower heart rate and a deeper, more relaxed sleep. Just what your growing child needs.

You may have heard that some people experience an allergic reaction to wool. More often that not, that reaction is a response to chemical additives rather than to the wool itself. Because all our products are chemical free, this isn’t an issue. If you have concerns about allergies and are unsure if wool is the right choice for your family, we offer a sensitivity kit.

Naturally healthy and snuggly soft, it’s no wonder wool bedding has been providing sweet dreams for generations.
