Product Information
- PREVENT FLAT SPOTS: Tortle is the low-cost, active solution to an epidemic among infants — flat head syndrome. This breathable repositioning beanie is designed to help prevent flat head syndrome from developing and creating other medical problems. This device expertly provides your baby with repositioning care and support so that they will have the best chance of healthy development.
- FOR NEWBORNS: Newborn babies heads are soft, making it easy for them to develop flat head syndrome. This beanie is designed to gently deflect your babies head to different positions to prevent flat head. The single layer construction is highly breathable, which helps prevent overheating. The beanie is our smallest — designed for infants with a 13” – 15” head circumference (birth to 2 months).
- REPOSITIONING TECHNIQUES: There are a variety of repositioning techniques you can use along with this beanie to maintain a good head shape. For quicker results, consider alternating where you place your babies head each night. You can also move their crib to different parts of the room. Placing a mobile in different places on and around the crib discourages remaining in the same position
- TORTLE: As a mother and a doctor, Tortle’s creator, Dr. Jane Scott, knows that new parents have enough to worry about — Dr. Jane herself is a mother of four! She knows first-hand the fear that permeates the parenting experience, which is why she set out to design a device that would help relieve some new-parent worry and promote health and wellbeing in new babies.
