Sheepskin rugs offer natural softness and warmth, providing a cosy surface for your baby to rest or play on. The natural wool fibres help regulate body temperature, keeping your baby warm in winter and cool in summer. Many parents love sheepskin because it’s gentle on delicate skin and helps soothe and calm babies during nap time. It’s a tradition which has lasted for generations and many parents swear by them.
Australian health guidelines advise against letting babies sleep overnight on loose sheepskin rugs inside cots or cribs. However, supervised daytime use — like tummy time, pram liners, or play mats — is widely popular and safe. Always check with your healthcare professional if unsure. Our baby sheepskin range have short-clipped wool fibres to ensure it is easy to maintain, creating a safe space for your precious one.
