Collection: Cellular Blankets

When used correctly, cellular cotton blankets are safe for babies. They are much safer than using blankets made from synthetic material due to their fabric and design encouraging airflow, which vastly reduces the risk of your baby overheating. Cotton itself is a breathable fabric, unlike synthetic versions. Cellular blankets are woven with small holes throughout, another key feature that helps lower the risk of overheating.

There are a few easy ways to ensure you safely use your cellular cotton blanket. When sleeping in a Moses basket or crib, always ensure that your baby’s feet are at the bottom, reducing the chances of them being able to move the covers up. You must also tuck the cellular blanket under your baby’s arms and then tuck the sides under the mattress. These simple steps will ensure safe and cosy sleep for your baby.

The NHS recommends layering lightweight blankets during the colder months rather than covering your baby with just one super-thick blanket — cellular cotton blankets are ideal. During the colder months, no more than two or three cellular cotton blankets should be enough to keep your baby warm.
