A safe sleep environment for baby is, of course, top priority—and the materials in your crib mattress play a big part in that. The Pure Core bypasses PVC, vinyl, chemical flame retardants, phthalates, dyes, allergens and off-gassing materials to provide baby with a non-toxic sleep surface. WHAT WE LOVE

The non-toxic mattress (in fact, it’s vegan) is made with hypoallergenic materials and a lightweight, fully recyclable polyester core You can order your mattress with the easy-clean waterproof cover (clutch when you’re dealing with a 3 a.m. blowout), or opt for a breathable smart cover that promotes air circulation and prevents overheating. Oh, and both options come in organic versions to boot It’s double-sided, offering firm support for infants on one side and cushier comfort for toddlers on the other
