When it comes to changing your baby on a changing mat, there comes a time when they start to roll over or even start to wiggle away from you, turning what would normal be a few minutes nappy change into a longer struggle, so when you best believe when I heard about the Turning Tot changing mat I needed to know more.

Turning Tot Changing Mat

There's plenty of anti-roll changing mats available on the market, but they're more to stop your little one following off the ma, than preventing them from wriggling away.

When the founder of Turning Tot's son turned five months old, she also found that it was a constant battle with his rolling and turning, which she also found exhausting, and that she would limit where she would go unless there was help from family or friends.

When her mum expressed a similar strain on changing duties when caring for him, they began searching for a solution to help parents, grandparents, and other childcare providers.

When they couldn’t find anything suitable, they put their heads together and spent three and a half years refining the idea into the Turning Tot Changing Mat: a portable anti-roll changing mat that is a total game changer for keeping those wriggly babies still.

The Turning Tot is designed to give parents and carers the freedom and confidence to go out and about knowing that they can change the baby in the most stress-free way possible.

Suitable for use from six months to two years, it’s so simple to use. It features a unique bamboo insert that stops the rolling and a bodice with Velcro fastenings to keep little ones safely in one place.

Thoroughly safety tested, it’s cushioned for comfort, durable, easy to clean, and has tactile features to keep little hands busy while they are having a change.  The mat is lightweight and perfect for use on the go as it can be rolled or folded to pop in a change bag. It also features a useful pocket for wipes and spare nappies.
