THE BEST WAY FOR YOUR BABY TO SLEEP.
About this article
- Innovative Baby Mattress: Specially designed for newborns and growing infants, these crib mattresses help wick away sweat, moisture, and fluids, as well as expelled CO2 for superior sleep safety to protect little ones.
- Targeted safety for baby with every breath: We've developed a unique mattress for your crib with a permeable screen that increases airflow and circulation, which is important to prevent breathing problems when your baby is lying on their tummy.
- Cool, Breathable, All-Night Comfort: Our premium breathable mattress not only helps liquids and air pass through more easily, the soft, supportive foam helps wick away sweat and moisture to also be gentler on sensitive skin.
- Better sleep for both of you: A Numu Sleep bassinet mattress helps your baby sleep more comfortably and soundly during long afternoon naps and throughout the night, so you can both rest a little easier and wake up feeling focused and refreshed.
- Washable Mattress Cover: This baby sleep mattress comes with a removable mattress cover that is machine washable to make it easier to keep it clean between messes, accidents, and sweaty sleep cycles as your baby grows.
Benefits of AirNettress
The AirNettress is made of a proprietary breathable mesh material surrounded by an aluminum frame. This screen provides comfort, strength, and durability, combined with the free circulation of air and temperature through it. These special features allow the mattress to significantly reduce the risk factors associated with Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and help better treat other serious clinical problems that occur during infancy and childhood.
The best way for your baby to sleep.

Why is the Numu mattress breathable?
A breathable mattress allows for better air circulation, so that the carbon dioxide exhaled by the baby during breathing disperses quickly. This increases available oxygen levels.
The Numu mattress, including the breathable sheet, allows for the best level of air circulation of any breathable mattress, thanks to its innovative design, making it one of the safest sleeping environments for children. We like to say that it's not the mattress that breathes. With Numu, your baby breathes. Numu represents an evolution in mattresses. It's a step forward from older foam or spring mattresses.
What is the difference between the Numu mattress and other “breathable” mattresses currently on the market?
In a survey of several "breathable" mattresses, Numu was found to be the only mattress capable of maintaining a carbon dioxide removal level below 1.2%, which is the maximum environmental level recommended by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH - National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Israel). The Numu mattress's superior airflow and unique design also prevent overheating, the accumulation of liquids and other fluids, making it easier to clean.
Is the Numu mattress safe for my child?
Yes, Numu is made of a single permeable mesh/net stretched over a sturdy structure. The unique quality of this screen allows for comfort, strength, and durability combined with free air circulation, temperature regulation, and fluid flow. In a study conducted at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem, the new mattress was found to have superior properties regarding air passage and carbon dioxide accumulation and dissipation compared to the known values of mattresses and bedding materials regularly used. This feature is important for babies during the first year of life and especially in situations where breathing is only possible through the mattress, for example, when they are prone to sleep or when the face is covered with a blanket or pillow. All liquids, including water, regurgitated food, vomit, or urine, penetrate the mattress.
In infants suffering from gastroesophageal reflux (commonly referred to as reflux) or during periods of respiratory illness, regurgitated food and mucus penetrate the surface of the mattress, preventing secondary aspiration. The mattress has been tested and approved by the Israel Institute of Standards for puncture, tear, and fire resistance, as well as toxic material testing.
Is the Numu mattress hypoallergenic?
Yes! The Numu mattress does not allow allergens to accumulate. Allergens are commonly found in our homes and include: pet dander, chemicals (anti-retardants often used in standard mattresses), or house dust mites (HDM), found in dust samples from the surfaces of mattresses, bedclothes, upholstered furniture (e.g., sofas), and carpets. HDM are known allergy triggers that are correlated with allergic diseases, such as asthma, allergic rhinitis, and atopic dermatitis. HDM does not survive on the surface of the Numu mattress, whereas in standard mattresses, HDM not only survives, but also reproduces and proliferates.
In Australia, Numu has been identified and approved by the Australian National Asthma Council as a Sensitive Choice product, meaning it is a recommended option for children with allergies or asthma.
What makes the Numu mattress different from other anti-allergy mattresses?
House dust mites (HDM) are microscopic creatures whose ideal growth requires high humidity, moderate temperature, and a suitable food source, particularly human skin. The largest number of mites is usually found in dust samples collected from the bare surfaces of mattresses, bedding, upholstered furniture (e.g., sofas), and carpets. The correlation between exposure to dust mites and the development of allergic diseases, such as asthma and allergic rhinitis, has been documented in numerous studies.
In a study conducted at Hadassah Hospital School of Medicine, HDM survival on the new surface (Numu mattress) was compared to survival on standard mattresses. HDM could not survive on this new surface, while dust mites not only survived but also reproduced and proliferated on standard mattresses. To achieve the same cleaning levels, methods such as frequent vacuuming and cleaning of standard mattresses and sheets, as well as the use of barrier methods to prevent the inhalation of dust mite allergens, are used.
What type of bed/crib is recommended for the Numu mattress?
The Numu mattress fits any rectangular bed (crib or toddler bed). We love this type of question because we believe the mattress should be the primary factor in the purchase of the bed and crib (baby will spend about 60% of their time on the mattress and not in the bed or crib! This is largely an aesthetic decision, while the mattress has a direct impact on baby's safety).
Will the Numu mattress be sturdy enough?
The mesh surface is stretched over the structure, creating high tension, giving the mattress unique orthopedic qualities and can support up to 400 kg without tearing.
The tension is maintained for a long time and is recommended for babies up to 25 kg, whether lying down, standing or jumping!
What happens if you tear the mattress a little?
The screen/net has been designed not to break, even with a weight of 100 kg. In case of accidental breakage, contact us at info@coussinsetc.com
Will my child be cold on the Numu mattress?
Normal mattresses are insulating and warm the baby's body underneath. With Numu, the temperature the baby feels under will be the same as above (the air in the room). As long as the baby is well dressed and the room is kept at the recommended temperature (approximately 20°-22°C), he or she will not be cold and will also feel much better on hot summer nights.
Does Numu prevent Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS)?
Numu reduces SIDS risk factors like no other mattress, making it a safer mattress for your baby.
To date, no one knows exactly what the direct causes of SIDS are, although risk factors have been identified. The main ones are heating, CO2 accumulation, lack of air circulation, and the accumulation of house dust mites.
Numu was designed to reduce these risk factors. Scientific and clinical research has been conducted to support these claims. No other mattress prevents overheating, CO2 buildup, and dust mites like Numu, and no other mattress allows air to circulate like Numu.
The approval of Numu by the National Asthma Council of Australia is based on these studies of Numu.
The number one recommendation for safe sleep to reduce SIDS risks is to place your baby on their back. Many parents worry when babies start rolling over and lying on their stomachs. With Numu, you can be sure that even with your face facing the mattress, your baby should be able to breathe freely (try it for yourself).
