Former Chief of Pediatric and Adolescent Medicine, Kaiser Permanente, Ohio Region
“We put a lot of emphasis on the physical protection of our children with the use
of car seats, safe toys and the recommendation to have babies sleep on their backs to reduce the incidence of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). We need to place similar emphasis on protecting our children from the subtle but potentially serious consequences of exposure to toxic chemicals. NaturePedic avoids the use of vinyl and foam, both of which contain potentially toxic chemicals such as phthalates and PBDE flame retardants. I recommend using a non–toxic and more natural mattress for all infants and toddlers, and I can recommend NaturePedic as an excellent product from people who care about the health of our children.”

“As a chemist who worked for more than 30 years on environmental issues, including conducting health risk assessments for the US EPA, the Departments of Energy and Defense, as well as many industrial clients, it is a pleasure to see what NaturePedic is doing.”

“With my many years of experience as pediatrician and Chief Medical Officer at St. Mary’s Healthcare System for Children, I am happy to see that the NaturePedic baby mattress, an all–natural baby mattress devoid of possible harmful agents, is finally available. The NaturePedic baby mattress gives pediatricians and parents with concerns about the chemicals in baby products a high quality option they previously did not have… I am happy to recommend it to parents.”

“I commend you for undertaking the task of promoting and selling the NaturePedic No-Compromise Baby Mattress to the general public. The natural material used in this mattress provides a wonderful option for parents concerned about their children’s health and well–being. Studies suggest that infants sleeping on these mattresses are healthier as a result of less exposure to toxic substances. At the same time, parents can rest assured that the mattresses provide maximal comfort as well as fire protection.”
