A Wee Grand Invention

I have a very short and extremely selective list of must-haves for a new baby. Brolly sheets are one of those things I never thought I’d need (MY kids will never wet the bed!) but which made it to my Top 5 on their first night in the house. Turns out this unassuming invention is one of the best investments we’ve made in the past 5 years.



Brolly sheets top my list for the toilet training stage but also rank high for use from birth. Yes. Birth. They are the perfect size for a cot, so our 11 month old has one as a mattress protector. Prior to this, it was a floor protector for his frequent nappy free time. Now I can’t keep him on anything, so we don’t bother trying to waterproof his space.

My trusty brolly sheet (I own… ahem… more than 1) accompanies us on car trips. It’s been known to line prams, car seats, trolleys and even the floor under a high chair. Yes, some people have carpet in their dining room and the last thing you want to do is clean spaghetti sauce off your hostess’ beige carpet.

Everything about this product screams ‘practical’. They are machine washable, can be tumble dried, changeable in 3 seconds and so versatile! The idea of brolly sheets is that you can just whip off the wet one and replace it with a dry one at 2 am almost without opening your eyes.

And anything that can be used for purposes above and beyond those for which it was intended has my vote.

One mattress protector from birth through to dry nights? Yes please!
One play mat from birth through to tidy eating? Yes please!
One cover for car seats, prams, trolleys and change tables? YES PLEASE!

Brolly sheets are a seriously economical investment. Economical for savings in time, money and space.

And they’re available through our Consultants :)
