Natural Baby Furniture

From biodegradable plastic bags to hybrid cars, society has jumped on the organic bandwagon in recent years. Is the whole “natural” approach just a money-grabbing trend launched by major companies? In reality, natural and organic furniture for your baby are actually much better for them than synthetic, chemically-treated ones.

Since your baby is new to the world, it’s extremely sensitive to its surroundings, and the more pure & natural products it comes in contact with, the less chance there is to be exposed to any toxins. The other benefit to buying organic supplies is the impact on the environment.

With fewer chemicals being released into the air, and more sustainable materials being used such as organic bamboo and wool, our air can be cleaner and our less sustainable resources (like hardwood) can be saved. Cymax Baby offers a selection of brands that carry natural, organic products that are healthier for them, you, and the environment.

LA Baby features 100% organic crib mattresses, which are great products to buy naturally because your baby spends a lot of time sleeping. Expose them to organic products while they sleep so they’re not breathing in any chemicals. 

Organic Crib MattressTheir Organic Crib Mattress is completely free of phthalates, polyurethane foam, lead, and toxic chemicals. It’s been constructed of sustainable coconut fiber mixed with natural latex to offer firm support for your baby. The firmer support you can get, the better – if the mattress is too soft, your child might not be able to support themselves and can get stuck in a dangerous position.

High Chair CoverThere’s also the Organic High Chair Cover for high chairs, which is quilted for your infant’s comfort. It’s naturally waterproof and also machine washable.

Organic Changing PadTo keep your baby safe and comfortable while being changed, there’s the Cocoon 4 Sided Changing Pad with Organic Cotton Layer. It has a skid-proof bottom, so you can change your baby anywhere, and there’s an added safety belt to keep your child from rolling off.

Little Bamboo has a selection of sheets, blankets, and cloths that are 100% natural and sustainable. Bamboo fibers are strong, soft, and breathable, plus they’re pesticide-free. 

Organic Baby SheetsThe Organic Baby Crib Sheets that are 70% bamboo and 30% cotton, both of which are organic. Most bamboo-constructed fabrics are mixed with a smaller percentage of cotton to make the product lighter. If you see a product that’s bamboo mixed with rayon, it’s no longer 100% natural because rayon is synthetic.

Organic Baby BlanketTo keep your baby warm by adapting to its body temperature, there’s the Organic Baby Crib Blanket. It’s made from 100% bamboo with a cotton trim, and is heavy for warmth, but still breathable.

Organic Baby TowelMore water-absorbent and anti-bacterial than cotton alone, the pack of 3 Organic Baby Towels are perfect for bath time. They can also be used to dry off your baby – they’re 60% more absorbent than other fabrics to get your baby dried faster!

The Stokke brand from Norway specializes has specific ergonomic, naturally produced cribs and crib mattresses for a healthier night’s sleep.

Stokke CribTheir infamous Sleepi Crib is environmentally friendly because it’s been constructed of sustainable, strong beechwood, and this model has been unfinished so there were no harmful chemicals used in its production. It’s also convertible – with your child’s growth, it can convert to a toddler bed, or even two chairs for when they’re older.

Stokke Crib MattressPair it with the Sleepi Organic Crib Mattress by Natural Mat, which is naturally chemical-free and non-allergenic, and even comes in a 100% biodegradable/recyclable package.

Da Vinci also offers sustainable cribs and mattresses that are ideal for your baby’s well being.

Davinci 4 in 1 CribThe Jayden DaVinci 4-in-1 Crib Nursey Set is a great way to save money and the environment too! The set features a convertible crib that will grow with your child, and a dresser/changer combo, both finished in non-toxic, formaldehyde-free espresso.

DaVinci Crib MattressThey’ve also been constructed of resourceful New Zealand pine. Then there’s the Willow Natural Baby DaVinci Crib Mattress, made from natural coconut fiber and latex-free foam. It contains no chemicals whatsoever and is upholstered in 100% cotton.
