Snugabub Cot Sheets Ensuring Parents and Baby Sleep Easier

If you looking for cot sheets which ensure both baby and parents can sleep a little easier, check out our latest brand Snugabub.

Snugabub products have been designed to:

  • Reduce the risk of entanglement and any excess bedding being pulled up over your babies head.

  • Ensure your baby sleeps at the base of the cot, as recommended by SIDS and Kids Organisation and Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths.

  • Allows you to easily tuck in a sleeping baby firm and snug and helps baby stop kicking blankets off

There are two fantastic Snugabub products available at Metro Mum:

Snugabub 3 Piece Cot Sheet Set For 0 to 12months $76.99

Made from 100% premium quality cotton, the sheets are fitted at the corners of the top and bottom sheets, allowing you to sleep your baby at the base of the cot and follow the SIDS safe sleeping principles, sleeping your newborn in a safe, snugly pocket.

The sheets have also been designed with wide angled sides to help keep the sheet firm over baby's chest enabling them to sooth themselves back to sleep in comfort.

Package contains two top sheet sizes - newborns (0-6months) and baby (6-12 months) and 1 fitted base sheet. This cot set is ingenious and will last you through the first year of your baby's life or until they are ready for their big bed!

Snugabub Sheets are manufactured to fit standard, small and large cot mattresses (Boori included) and are machine washable for easy care.

There is even an extra small sheet available for premmature and small babies.


The basis for the Snugabub clever and innovative cot sheet and blanket design is simple - making nursery bedding as safe as possible while catering for infants from 1 - 12 months of age.
This premium 100% Pure Cotton Thermal Blanket is designed to hold warmth, while its pure cotton provides softness, breathability and comfort. The open cell weave of the thermal blankets offers exceptional durability to keep them looking great long after they're put to use.

"Baby wedge has been a godsend for my little man. Having a baby with severe reflux you do everything you can to make your child's life more comfortable. The first time I used baby wedge he immediately dozed off into a blissful sleep, and we have been using it every day since. The wedge is so handy, in the pram bassinet, over to friends houses, under his Gymini mat when he is playing and for tummy time. I'm so grateful that someone has finally invented a product to help the many bubs suffering from reflux. Thank you."
