Linen Nursing Pillow - No Cover

Here at Sable Bebe, safety is our top priority. Please note that our Nursing Pillow is designed as a temporary space for your baby to feed and rest under direct supervision, and not as a baby bed.

Our Nursing Pillow should never be used as a sleep aid or placed in a baby's crib or bassinet, and is not recommended for co-sleeping.

Please follow the below safety guidelines when using our Nursing Pillow:

- Direct supervision is required at all times when using the nursing pillow. Never leave your baby in the nursing pillow unattended (regardless of whether they are sleeping, resting or playing), and be sure to check on your baby regularly.

- Do not use the Nursing Pillow in a cot, bassinet, moses basket or other enclosed space.

- Do not place the Nursing Pillow next to a wall or vertical surface.

- Do not use loose blankets with the Nursing Pillow. If your baby needs extra warmth, use a lightweight sleeping bag or add an extra layer of clothing.

- Only use the Nursing Pillow on a flat, stable surface. 

- Do not tilt the Nursing Pillow or place it on any surface that it could fall from. Keep the Nursing Pillow away from any open flames.

Safe sleep guidelines
As per the Red Nose Guidelines, we believe the safest place for your baby to sleep is on a clean, firm mattress in a bassinet or cot, placed on their back. We do not recommend using our Nursing Pillow for co-sleeping, overnight sleeping or any period of unsupervised sleep, under any circumstances. Please refer to the Red Nose Guidelines HERE for the most up-to-date safe sleeping practices.

Do
Wash separately using lukewarm water and either a gentle hand wash or machine wash (<40 degrees) on a delicate cycle.

Use a mild detergent (such as Softly Delicates) that contains no bleach or optical brighteners.

If you choose to hand wash only leave your linen to soak for a maximum of 10 minutes.

Air-dry in the shade.

Don't
Use bleach or detergent with optical brighteners.

Use fabric softener.

Dry in direct sunlight as this damages the fibres.

Tumble-dry your Baby Lounger or Nursing Pillow

What material is the nursing pillow made from?
Our nursing pillow filling is made out of pearl cotton (inner fabric) and tencel (outer layer). 

Pearl Cotton is a mercerized cotton yarn twisted, two-ply thread. This results in it being soft, silky and plush to touch. 

Tencel is a natural fibre made from wood pulp which is spun into yarn and then woven into a fabric that is highly absorbent and breathable.

What is the fit of the nursing pillow cover supposed to be like?
Our covers are designed to be snug. For this reason, you may need to play around a little when putting the cover on your nursing pillow to ensure it is sitting correctly.

How do I wash my nursing pillow cover?
Remove the cover from the pillow and wash separately using lukewarm water (<40 degrees) and either a gentle hand wash or machine wash on a delicate cycle, using a mild detergent (such as Softly Delicates) that contains no bleach or optical brighteners. Fabric softener is not necessary or required when washing linen. Linen will naturally soften with each wash. If you choose to hand wash your linen only leave to soak for a maximum of 10 minutes.

We recommend laying your linen flat to air-dry in the shade and out of direct sunlight. We advise against drying your linen in a tumble dryer. If you do need to use a tumble dryer, do so on low heat only and ensure that your linen is removed whilst still slightly damp and lay flat to finish drying. Over drying your linen in a tumble dryer may cause the linen to become brittle and bleached.

Can I wash my nursing pillow in the machine?
Yes the nursing pillow itself can be machine washed. Please follow the wash instructions above however please note the lounger is not designed to be tumble dried. Instead, lay flat to air dry.
