Introduction
The creation of this product was inspired by our own daughter's mishaps in her sleeping environment - a traditional crib. One evening while getting out of bed, I discovered that her leg was sticking out between the slats and the bumper pad placing her at risk of an injury especially if I hadn't noticed and walked into it. Further incidents such grabbing for the slats while developing her motor skills, she would miss and go face first into the slats.

From a parent's perspective, even a minor injury is too much - we felt the same!

It was time to look at safer alternatives. Much to our frustration, the alternatives were few and far between. In fact, traditional cribs hadn't been changed in over 100 years. I also discovered in my research that extensive numbers of children were injured and killed in cribs for various reasons.

I decided to re-design what I felt was a safer environment for our children, and so the journey began.

The Testimonials of parents and caregivers alike have given us a clear message - and we are listening!
