Beat the mite

Taking extra steps to protect babies in your care with asthma or allergies is always worthwhile. Zip & Block Bedding is formulated to create a barrier between the mites and their faeces and the baby's skin. Zip & Block's mattress covers, pillowcase and duvet protectors have a 'pore size' of just three microns (the maximum the industry allows is ten), plus outer and interior zipper flaps and reinforced inner seams. The mattress cover's surface fabric is a 'silky' polyester knit and the bottom layer is a breathable membrane. The duvet and pillowcase protectors have soft knit fabric on top, with breathable, waterproof polyurethane membrane bottom layers. All the bedding is machine washable and available in cot, cot bed and single bed sizes. The Pillowcase protector is priced 14.99; the mattress cover is from 31.99 and the duvet protector is from 39.99, available from Mothercare. Contact 08453 304030 www.mothercare.com
