I’ve read a lot, as you can imagine, about green living and creating a low chemical home for my family. One of the things that I never did invest in and feel a little guilt about every once in a while is an organic crib mattress. I do use organic bedding and hope that makes up for it a little bit.

Naturalmat products, available from ModernTots, are the best of the best when it comes to organic mattresses and bedding and the place I’d turn if an organic mattress was on my list right now.

Natural is best for so many reasons. All of the naturalmat mattresses are 100% organic with no glues, bonding agents, chemicals or synthetic materials. Handmade in Devon, England, Naturalmat mattresses are non-allergenic and anti-dust mite, naturally fire retardant without the use of chemical treatments and offer support that is far superior to conventional mattresses. In addition, the company uses raw materials that come from 100% renewable and sustainable sources that comply with Fair Trade policies and uses packaging that is 100% biodegradable and 100% recyclable.

The mattresses are available in three compositions – coco ($400 crib, $999 twin), latex ($525 crib) or mohair ($625 crib). Each one has it’s benefits and the level of luxury you choose is really a personal choice. Once you choose to go organic, what’s an extra $200? Pocket change.
