Learn how to safely fit and use the OCS Almond cot bumper with Harlequin embroidery from Cam Cam Copenhagen. This guide covers mounting, safety tips, and organic care.
Quick answer
The OCS Almond cot bumper with Harlequin embroidery is a soft, organic option that provides comfort and safety when properly mounted with tie ribbons along the outside of the cot.
Why proper fitting matters for safety
A cot bumper that is not securely attached can shift during sleep, potentially creating a hazard. The OCS Almond bumper uses tie ribbons that must be fastened tightly around the cot slats and any excess ribbon cut off to prevent entanglement. Always check the fit before each sleep.
Organic materials and care
The bumper is made from soft, organic cotton with a gentle filling. Organic materials reduce exposure to chemicals, which is beneficial for your baby's sensitive skin. To maintain the bumper's shape and safety, follow the care label instructions—typically gentle machine wash and air dry.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I mount the cot bumper?
- Attach the bumper using the tie ribbons along the outside of the cot. Ensure the ribbons are tied securely around the cot slats, then adjust the bumper so it sits evenly. Cut off any exceeding ribbons to avoid loose ends.
- Can I use the bumper if my baby can roll over?
- Once your baby can roll over independently, many safety guidelines recommend removing cot bumpers to reduce the risk of suffocation or entrapment. Consult your pediatrician and follow safe sleep practices. Consider transitioning to a bumper-free cot when your baby becomes mobile.
- How do I clean the OCS Almond bumper?
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, then air dry. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat to preserve the organic cotton and embroidery. Check the care tag for specific instructions.
- What if the bumper doesn't fit my cot size?
- The bumper is designed for standard cot sizes, but always measure your cot's interior length and height before purchasing. If the bumper is too long, you may need to adjust the tie placement or consider a different size. Measure your cot first to ensure a snug fit without gaps.
