Sleppyco handmade crib mattresses are made differently. We have been making cribs since 1981, making an organic product that is safer and healthier for your baby. We believe that a firm cotton crib mattress is the greatest sleeping surface any amount of money can buy and your newborn deserves to start his or her life, sleeping without harsh chemicals.
All Sleppyco mattresses are handmade in the USA, some take one, while others take about five hours to make. The crib is made very firm, which is the firmness necessary to reduce the risk of SIDS and provide the firm surface a newborn needs.
While standard crib mattresses normally measure 27x52 inches or 27.5x52 inches, all Sleppyco Cotton Crib mattresses measure 28x54x3.5 inches.
Ours are purposely handmade a little bigger to make sure they do not leave any gaps. Making sure the crib mattress fits nice and snug is the best way to go! We have been handcrafting them this way since 1981. We do make custom sizes if you prefer.

To purchase a mattress without wool as the natural fire retardant, you must submit a doctor's prescription before your order can be crafted and shipped. The note must be written on a prescription block or a formal letterhead, though the latter must include a DEA Number to be considered valid under Federal Regulation 1633. The note may read as follows: "My patient requires a chemical-free mattress." You are welcome to purchase a mattress without wool or other flame retardants before obtaining a formal prescription. We will place the item on hold: you will maintain your place in our Production Queue, preventing any delays with your order, but we are unable to craft the mattress until an acceptable prescription is received.
