Why choose natural latex foam?
Natural latex is the best and most natural alternative for sustainable play mats and mattresses. It is made using the sap collected from beneath the bark of rubber trees and is not treated with any chemicals or pesticides. Natural latex makes Cushy Mats hypoallergenic, toxin-free, phthalates-free, and PVC and lead-free.
Is it safe for my bubz?
We have an adorable munchkin ourselves who is actually the inspiration behind the brand. So, as parents, we understand that safety is #1 and have ensured all the products are 100% safe for babies. In fact, our baby was the first bub to try out our cushy mat. All our products are made using 100% natural and organic materials. We ensure that all our product materials are ethically sourced and environmentally friendly. As parents, it is our duty to leave behind a better world for our bubs, so we are also trying our bit to do the same. If you do have more questions regarding our products, shoot us an email at team@bubmats.com and we will get back to you within 48 hours.
Are your mats environmentally friendly?
Our Cushy Mats are completely sustainable and eco-friendly because the latex comes from the bark of the rubber trees and the process does not involve cutting down or damaging the rubber trees in any form. In fact, the trees continue to produce sap for up to 30 years.

When to start tummy time?
Wondering what is the ideal time/age for you to start tummy time for your little bub? While with most parenting guidelines, there is no specific timeframe for this one because there is no “one-size-fits-all” when it comes to our little munchkins. However, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that parents start tummy time as early as possible (you can even start from their first day home from the hospital!)
