Baby Tuck Sheet
For use only with the corresponding size mattress. The mattress that this product is used with should have a firm surface, soft bedding is not recommended. Ensure that you fit the Tuck Sheet like a sleeve over the end of the mattress. The Tuck Sheet will stretch to fit over most bassinet/cradle and cot/crib mattresses. The Tuck Sheet should be positioned no higher than mid-way up baby's chest, with baby's feet touching the end of the bassinet or cot. Do not use with more than one child inside the Tuck Sheet. When adjusting firmness using zips, you should be able to firmly fit two fingers between the Tuck Sheet and your baby's chest to ensure its not too tight.

Description
Use over the top of a swaddle or layer to provide added warmth, security and comfort for an infant during sleep without the risk of coming untucked. The two TOG-rated sides allow you to adjust for warmth level and firmness. Use the 0.2 TOG side across your baby's body for a light layer and low startle reflex. If your baby requires a warmer layer with a more secure fit, opt to use the 1.0 TOG side over their body. Follow the included Bedding Temperature Guide for help on what TOG side to use, and what to wear underneath for sleep.
The Tuck Sheet features a two-way zip, to adjust for firmness (tightness) and mattress size.
The Baby Tuck Sheet has been stringently tested and approved as safe by leading independant infant safety organisation INPAA. When using the right size for your baby's length and sleep envrionment, the Baby Tuck Sheet will not come up higher than mid-way up baby's chest following Red Nose safe sleep guidelines. Given the design of the product, the Baby Tuck Sheet cannot become untucked from the mattress, be pulled up near baby's face, or be classified as loose bedding in any way. If your baby does manage to get their legs out of the Tuck Sheet, it will simply lie flat on the mattress. Newborns who don't like to be swaddled may find the firmness of the Tuck Sheet comforting in lieu of sleeping with their arms in.
Please cease using the Baby Tuck Sheet once your baby shows signs of rolling over.

How To Use
- Slip the Baby Tuck Sheet over the end of your baby's mattress. Choose the 0.2 TOG side up for a light feel and layer in warm rooms, or the 1.0 TOG side up for a firmer feel and warmer layer in moderate temperature rooms. Refer to our Bedding Temperature Guide (included in pack) for more information.
- Dress your baby in their sleepwear. We recommend a Layer (onesie), underneath a Cocoon Swaddle Bag (arms in or out) or Sleeping Bag (arms out). Use our Bedding Temperature Guide to help you choose the right product combination and TOG.
- Unzip the Baby Tuck Sheet. Lay your baby under the open folds, with their feet touching the end of the cot / crib.
- Zip up the sheet, to the desired firmness. You should easily be able to zip up the sheet, and firmly fit two fingers between the sheet and your baby. Once zipped up, ensure the sheet does not come up higher than the middle of your baby's chest. If it is coming up higher, simply tuck more of the sheet under the mattress until the right length is achieved. As your child grows taller, continue to adjust.
- Unzip the sheet to remove baby from it.
- Discontinue use once your baby shows signs of rolling over
